MATCH SCORING:

LIVE: 1 Point (Surviving without being killed by correct assassin)
DEAD: 0 Points (Killed by correct assassin)
FOUL:-4 points (Killing incorrect target)
MISS: 0 Points (No points for being kicked for missing too many turns)

Aside from the bonus point (which corresponds to a KILL), all of these are mutually exclusive (you can only have one of these scores per game)

Scenarios:

Players kicked from game for missing too many turns always get 0pts. Otherwise:

1. Correct kill on home map. Winner gets 4pts + 1 bonus pt. Target gets 0pts. Everyone else gets 1pt.
2. Correct kill on away map. Winner gets 4pts. Target gets 0pts. Everyone else gets 1pt.
3. Incorrect kill. Offender gets -4pts. Everyone else gets 1pt including the winner of the game.
4. Win without assassination (objective, round limit). Winner gets 2 points. Everyone else gets 1pt.

TIE-BREAKER:
1. Points
2. Highest Number of KILLs
3. Lowest TTK (average Time To Kill)
3. Highest Number of WINs
4. Highest Number of LIVEs
5. Lowest Number of DEADs
6. Lowest Number of FOULs
7. Lowest Total Game Duration of All the CURRENT Seasons games

TOURNAMENT FORMAT:
This is a League Format. Each League will have 16 Players. Depending on numbers we may have an extra league with 6 players.

Every Season, players will be promoted or relegated as follows:

Finish 1st: Promoted 3 Leagues
Finish 2nd: Promoted 2 Leagues
Finish 3rd-4th: Promoted 1 League
Finish 5th to 12th: Remain in Current League
Finish 13th-14th: Relegated 1 League
Finish 15th: Relegated 2 Leagues
Finish Bottom: Relegated 3 leagues

There are a number of exceptions depending on the existence of an extra small league. The scoreboard clearly outlines the promotions in all cases so easiest to look at that.

For Season 0 things will be different.

We'll randomly assign leagues for S0 and use the points scored to fill in leagues in S1.
In general we will fill S1 PRE with the top position players in each S0 league and continue to fill leagues based on position in league.
The scoreboard for S0 will clearly indicate which leagues you will end up in if the positions do not change as usual.

REST SEASONS:
A rest season can be taken where you are guaranteed to stay in your current league.
This guarantee is good for one season but not for consecutive seasons - that will result in dropping down a league via relegation.

We are not able to allow lots of people on REST seasons because it affects the balance of the games as it is a 6 player tournament.
In exceptional circumstances we can allow a REST season but this immediately reduces the number of players in some of the games.
We reserve the right to refuse REST seasons if we feel it affects the balance of the games (we don't want to end up with 3 or 4 players games).

MISSED INVITES:
Games are ALWAYS sent on Mondays - invites expire after 24 hours so we are expecting you to accept by Tuesday.
Missed or dropped invites impact everyone else:

• Tournament organisers - checking for missed invites, reissuing invites , sending PMs to offending players takes time and energy.
• All other players - you'll slow the tournament down possibly affecting how many seasons we can have per year.

Here is how we will deal with missed or dropped invites:

• We will send one reinvite on Tuesday and send a warning via automated PM
• We will remove players if invites not accepted by Wednesday and notify via automated PM
• Players must PM us by Reply All if they have good reason and want to be reinstated asap

We are not going to remove results of removed players but their scores will be zeroed - we will just reduce the number of players in the affected matches to keep the tournament going.
We will have to VOID games if we cannot schedule them with more than 2 players in the case of too many players removed or resting in the league.

RESERVES:
We have a new concept of Super League reserves - it is not mathematically possible to give everyone a place in a 6 player game tournament so we will assign any remainder as reserves.
If we have to remove people or people dropout , we will automatically replace them with the next available reserve and send new games out.
As it is an advantage to replace players in leagues without qualifying for the league we will start the reserve on zero points regardless of when in the season they join.
We will retain results history for completeness as the other players will still keep their points for previous matches with the removed player.
Reserves can have their home map but will only play it if there are home games remaining in the season.

MAPS:
Random Map is permitted as the HOME MAP.
No Beta or Special Event maps allowed for HOME MAPs (see https://www.conquerclub.com/public.php?mode=maps)

CC Assassin Super League Scoreboard Guide

The scoreboard is packed with features you may not be aware of , let's take a walkthrough.

Notes - the scoreboard is not meant to come with instructions so there are notes everywhere to give you descriptions on what the data is saying like this:



Just hover over cells with the above mark on them.

Let's start with the first row:

• Master Assassin - most correct kills and highest league position. As the league table already sorts tie-breakers out this will pick out player in the highest table position with most correct kills.
• Fastest League - this chart tracks % progress of game completion rates per league towards season total
• Active Games - this chart tracks oldest week games that are still active
• Updated - date when scoreboard was last updated
• Useful Links to main thread, this guide, and the prizes post
• Week - current game week

League Table

• Position - All data is available to figure out tie-breakers - Points, KILLs, TTK, WINs, LIVEs, DEADs, FOULs, MISSes (BONUS is not used for tie-breakers as they are KILLs)
• Player - note that Player 1 indicates Player 1 replaced Player 2 but does not inherit Player 2's points.
• Rank - CC rank
• Status - ACTIVE, REST (keep spot in league), KICKED - KICKED players lose their points and can be relegated, REST matches are never scheduled.
• Games - Games completed
• Form - Match results in order of schedule
  
• Best Streak - longest streak of consecutive wins (KILLs or WINs) - X squares do not count as a win but they do not break win streaks (consecutive green / blue squares). For example:
  
  • Row 1: X square does not count as a win but it does not break win (green / blue) streaks so the biggest streak is 6.
  • Row 2: The green / blue squares are not broken up by anything so the biggest win streak is 5.
  • Row 3: There are 2 streaks of 2 - the 2 blue squares and the green X blue combination - X does not count as a win but it does not break the streak
  • Row 4: There is a green / blue win streak of 2
• Days - total number of days elapsed for all games in completed matches timed from game start to game end.
• TTK - average Time To correctly Kill in rounds timed from game start to game end.
• KILL number of KILLs, WIN number of WINs etc
• Next Season - if standings remain then this is the league the player will be in next season after promotion and relegation.

Phantoms

This column is identical to the Player column except it is the left side of the grid and the player is coloured gold if they have never been correctly killed

Grid

Grid notes show the map for the game
KILL/BONUS/WIN/LIVE/DEAD/FOUL/MISS - result for the player
HOME - home game.
AWAY - away game.
REST - player is having a rest season
KICKED - player has been removed from season -their matches will still go ahead with one less player
VOID - too many people have been kicked from the league to form a 3 player game so the match is now VOID.
MISS - players kicked out the game for missing turns will not get a point

Leaderboard

Leaderboard for:

• Speed - lowest number of average days played per completed match
• Accuracy- highest number of KILLs
• CC Rank - highest CC Rank
• League Points - highest league points
• Win Streaks - longest streak of consecutive wins
• Efficiency - lowest number of average rounds played per completed match

Past Results Tab

Final results for each season will be published in a new tab

Tips

• How can I find a player on the scoreboard? - CTRL+F (Cmd + F on Mac) will open a box in the top right where you can type a name in and you will see green highlights where they are found
• How can I work out how many matches I have this week? The form which will indicate white for scheduled matches that are incomplete
• How do I work out who will get promoted or relegated? The league table rows are coloured green for promotions and red for relegations - these will be final at season end.
• How do I work out which league I will be in next season? The Next Season column in the league table at season end will answer this question.

CC Assassin Super League Map Guide

You may or may not be familiar with 6p assassin games but it is important to choose a map you are familiar with and will have the best chance of a kill.

Home advantage
This is because of the points on offer - if you make a kill on your home map, you will get 4+1 = 5 points including the bonus point. If you survive, you will get one. If you win the game (round limit or objective) you'll get 2.
The league table tie-breaker starts with most number of points then most number of kills so it is beneficial in the case of a tie that you maximise your kills.

Speed advantage
Additionally the third tie-breaker is TTK (average time to kill) which works best with smaller maps.

Connectivity
You may also want to consider the connectivity of the map - maps that are difficult to get from one side to the other may make it more difficult for kills.

The Drop
There is also the drop - maps that have starting positions where all player start equally reduce the impact of a bad drop. On larger maps with no starting positions you could end up dropping anywhere miles from your target.

Updated with Seeding promotion information for S0:

For Season 0 things will be different.

We'll randomly assign leagues for S0 and use the points scored to fill in leagues in S1.
In general we will fill S1 PRE with the top players in S0 leagues and continue to fill leagues based on points scored.

The scoreboard for S0 will clearly indicate which leagues you will end up in if the positions do not change as usual.

I am proposing an alternative point system as the current one has some bias.

3pts correct kill (equivalent to a win)
1pts survivor
0pts killed correctly
-3pts incorrect kill (penalty equivalent to win)

I think this better rewards and encourages correct kills personally but interested to hear opinion
