General:
The Tournament will be played using the format of the Kúpello Elládos.
Little changes are the number of teams and the using of byes.
Because more players will take part as in the real Kúpello Elládos, there will be a Qualifying Round first.
Also there will be no byes as in the real Kúpello Elládos in Round 3.

Players will be invited for their match using the invite-feature and will have 24 hours to join. If they fail to do so you will get another chance with a reminder and I also will note you. Players who fail to join after the reminder will be ejected from the tournament and a reserve will replace them.

You win your match as follows: 1. eliminate your opponent within 30 Rounds, 2. hold the most regions in Round 30 (if there is a tie then Round 29 will be looked at and so on), 3. your opponent deadbeats or 4. your opponent doesn't show-up and there is no reserve (walk-over). Note: If it is a Final then rule 2 doesn't count and play will go on until 1 player has won the game.
A draw can be possible in case of more legs, a structure with re-plays or a round-robin competition, when both players reach Round 11 in a game.
