Grid Wars [Abandoned]
Posted: Mon Nov 14, 2011 6:43 pmI call this GRID WARS!!!
This tourney is for 32 players and is for premium players only due to multiple games being played at once. However, no more than 6 at one time to avoid game overload.
This is a twist using a round robin-type tourney format. Players will play in groups known as a grid. There will be 4 grids. Each grid will have 8 players in it, assigned in order of signing up. Players signing up will be assigned to a grid in sequential order. Every 4 players signing up will be put in a different Grid, until all 4 grids are full. So the 1st 4 players to sign up will go to grids 1-4 respectively, then the next 4 go to Grids 1-4 respectively, and so on until all 4 grids are full.

Round 1: Great Lakes
Round 2: Route 66
Round 3: Iceland
Round 4: Draknor- Level 1
Round 5: Wales
Round 6: Asia
Finals: Rail Australia
Players will now be reassigned to grids, based on their records. Grids are now ranked with highest winning players in Grid 1, on down to the lowest in Grid 4. Each Grid the players will be ranked 1-8 to determine placement.
After Round 2 the grids will once again shift, using the same method to determine Grids 1-4 used after Round 1. The bottom 8 players in Grid 4 will be eliminated.
After the players in Grid 4 are eliminated, remaining player win/loss scores are then reset. 3 Grids and 24 players remain. Grid assignments remain as players were ranked at end of Round 2, before eliminations.
After Round 4, Those players with the worst records will be in Grid 3 and are then eliminated. Any tie breakers in either round 3 or 4 will be determined using the same method as before. There are now 2 Grids and 16 players remaining. Win/loss scores are again reset. Grid assignments remain as players were ranked at end of Round 4, before eliminations.
The bottom 8 players, now in Grid 2, will be eliminated. Any tiebreakers needed follow same rules as before.
If there are any questions, feel free to post them in the thread.
