Ok, sorry for the misunderstanding. I was in a hurry when I posted the tournament as I had a deadline. I am currently working on reworking the format to make it less games and right number of games/maps per round.

Ok, I think i have it worked out. I added 4 teams and made the format faster. I think all in all it should be 12 rounds. If anyone see's anything wrong please let me know via PM.

The way I'm seeing it, there will be the following number of teams each round: 36, 30, 24, 18, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4, 1 . Based on this, there are 9 rounds.... am I misreading? If not, why are there 36 maps?

The way I'm seeing it, there will be a 6-team round robin in Division A, and a 6-team round robin in Division B, C, D, E, F. After 5 games per team, you'll eliminate the weakest team in each division. Then, there will be a 5-team round robin in Division A, and a 5-team round robin in Division B, C etc. This means the winning team will play a total of (5+4+3+2+5+4+3+2+9) = 37 quads games? Again, am I misreading this?

Ok, I bolded the relevant numbers that I edited from dowians reading with the current format. (and ignoring the last sentence of 3 games every round-since it's 1 game per team for the first two 6 team RR stages.

I don't think this is too bad?

Either way, I'm in with a team of maasman, leapfrog and lequeen, since this does seem manageable.

Basically, it's 6 teams in 6 groups for the first stage, and then 6 teams with 2 groups for the second, with still only 1 game played against the other teams. (with teams dropping out at the end of each 'round' until there are 2 left in the group?)
And then in the final group there's 4 teams, with 3 games played against each of the 3 teams?

However, I'm not so certain you'll get 36 quads teams within the month? it's still 144 players, so just check how quickly other recent quad team tournaments have filled?

Thats correct. I will keep an eye on the teams and once things slow down I might allow individuals to sign up for random teams.

Hi Missionary. Once you get to allowing single players to join random teams, please add me. If there are 3 others looking for a teammate willing to play with me, let me know and I'm sure I'll join up with you.
