UPDATE Dec 4: Serbia is taking over this tournament. New thread: Connect 4 Restarted Again

This is a tournament which is based on the Original Connect 4 tournament by yeti_c. I was trying to get it off the ground, but unfortunately i was unable to find enough subs. So yeti_c kindly enough has given me a permission to restart it.

Here are the rules:

Welcome to the Connect 4 tournament.

This tournament will be played exclusively on the new Conquer 4 map.

The games will be 2 player - Sequential, No Spoils, Chained, Sunny.

The Tournament will have 32 players and progress will be made by beating your opponent in a game of Connect 4! (Here's the twist)

Players will take it in turns to choose a column within which to attempt to place a chip.
A game is then played - and the winner of the game - decides the colour of the chip.
First player to create a Connect 4 wins the round.
If no connect 4 is made and the board is filled up - then the round will be decided by total number of wins.

Initial starting brackets will be decided randomly. - No shows will be replaced by Reserves in the first round - and will cause bye's in later rounds.

All game must be started within 2 days, since they were posted.

Please count me in. Question, though...so if I understand things correctly, each "match" will actually have it's OWN "Connect 4 Board" that the actual match is played on, and that board is filled with one chip follow each round of the match (with the winner placing the chip)?

Indeed, you can see the sample matches from the unfinished tournament here:

Connect 4

A player select the column first, then if he wins, his colored chip is placed in that column, if he looses, then his opponent's.
