Greetings!
Welcome to the Grand Finale Tournament for the original set of One Man Clan Tournaments!
Each of our previous winners and runners up will be invited to face off on the biggest challenge yet!
One Man Clan IIOne Man Clan IIIOne Man Clan IVOne Man Clan VIt is a Randomly Seeded Bracket Poly Games tournament.
In this series as promised, players will be randomly paired for the Grand Finale, EVERY match up will be a full war except the Round of 8 (which will be nearly 41).
So obviously this event is a premium only tournament. ONE QUICK NOTE:
I'VE ALLOWED ROUND LIMITS TO HELP SPEED THINGS ALONG, as well as re organized how the games are sent out (to help speed game completion timeline).
I've also split it into more rounds to help assist with game load spikesNote on Tournament Invite Declines / New Invite to GF Methodology:
if any of our winners or runners up are unavailable, we will first invite the winner of
One Man Clan (The Original) which was ZaBeast, then we will invite the two other semi finalists of THAT event. If both of them wish to join, one of them will be selected at Random. If both of the semi finalists decline, we will then invite the runner up of the Original (itake). If even still, everyone has declined we will go to the quarter finalists etc until someone is selected. If someone was previously removed from the Tournament, they will not be invited.
Once participants are confirmed, you'll be sent a PM with the randomized bracket information to begin planning your maps.
You will have roughly 1 week to reply with your chosen maps and settings for the round.
Please send ALL rounds of maps and settings, not just the first roundBe VERY clear on your map and settings selections. I dont want to have to chase you and ask repeatedly for missing settings.
Once I've received everyones PM, I will send invites out.
Subsequent rounds I will do my best to be considerate of the participants in overlapping rounds with games due to game count. However if theres a couple that are dragging out and the winner has already been determined, its possible that I will send out / request the next round games and settings before ALL games complete from the prior round and send invites out. This is to ensure the tournament continues moving along at a reasonable pace.
Missed invites will be resent once throughout the tournament, once you miss a second time your opponent will advance.
Settings / Rules: NEW MAP RULESNo longer does each map have to be unique in a war HOWEVER you only get two uses through the entire tournament.

We will see who the best "one man clan" is! (women's applications are accepted too
)
Please note you should expect me sending 8-12 games per round, and will try to schedule it every two weeks.
New ones will be sent possibly before old ones are completed (heavy game load late tournament) As always, I TRY and be mindful of the game loads.
If I see your match up is ahead of the group time wise, and completing games faster I'll try to include some games here and there to keep the funnel going.
If I see you are lagging, I won't be able to delay as much compared to others. Overall, I'm just looking to keep everyone roughly the same pace to where
everyone can enjoy it without drop outs and crazy extensions of the tournament in general.
If I'm able based on my own IRL schedule, I might send parts of a round or something just to keep you guys going at or near 10 active games...but I can't promise that. I'm busy Jan-March.
(note: not exact, review the schedule and spacing apart yourself and make your own game load judgement if you are concerned)
