Joining Tournaments

I am starting it early so we can have a ranking system in place based on the outcome of the 1st 3 weeks of tournaments. No ranking system will be used in the 1st 3 weeks. I will try to follow the dates listed as closely as possible. The start dates may be earlier if the tournaments fill up faster.

If tournaments do not fill by the deadline we will play with less players as long as we have at least 16. If byes are needed they will be drawn randomly in the 1st 3 weeks. After that the highest seeded players will receive byes.
If tournaments do not fill points will be awarded on a discounted basis based on number of entrants. For example, 128 possible entrants, but only 100 sign up. Normally 2000 points for winner if major. New points will be 100/128 =0.78125(2000)1562.5 points for winner.
World Tour Finals, the top 16 players after 35 weeks will be invited to this event and placed in groups of 4. They will play round robin with the top 2 from each group advancing to the next round. The 8 players will again be split into 2 groups of 4 where they will play round robin matches. Top 4 advance to play bracket style.
100 points for a win in R1
200 points in R2
300 points for RU
600 points for winner
1500 points if winner goes undefeated
Points will be updated after each tournament is finished.
You have 24 hours to join all invites. If you do not.
1st offense- warning
2nd offense- 10% point deduction for that week
3rd offense- 25% deduction
4th offense- 50% deduction
5th offense- you are out and will not be allowed in future events
If you know that you will not be able to accept invites beforehand, PM me and I will work with you.
First tournaments will be out in the next day or 2.
If anyone has actually read to the bottom, please advise me on what I need to add or change.
