In each week there will be a qualifying race, to determine the 7 cars who will do battle in that weeks race for victory. Points will be awarded as follows : 1st=8pts, 2nd=6pts, 3rd=4pts, 4th=3pts, 5th=2pts, 6=1pt, 7th=0pts.The scoreboard will show the cars points tally over the 17 weeks, at the end of the which, the car with the most points will be victorious. Should the winning car have more than 1 character, then they will have a series of playoffs on the maps they collectively won to determine overall winner.

Structure

Each qualifying race will consist of 7 (Matches) 1v1 games, with the winner from each match (7 in total) going onto the Race Final of that week.
The 7-player race Finals will be Terminator games with random settings each race.

Examples of TeamPlay

The single character cars will race in qualifiers & should they win, will go onto race in Final race for that week.
Where there are 2 characters in a car, 1 will race the qualifiers & should they win, their partner in crime will go onto race in Final for that week. The following week this will be alternated.
In the case of the Ant Hill Mob, there will be 3 teams competing as a duo.

Obviously, I would be open to any further suggestions, regarding the set-up & playability of Tourney, whilst taking sign-ups,

Above all, Have fun & enjoy!!

Sorry for the delay here, I'm about to go on vacation and will send the games out on Monday probably so it can move along while I'm out.

If I decline to continue, will I get any points towards the TPA standings?

Whatever you have now is what you will have at the end, so yes. No one will lose their points.

I've updated who is out so far. Give everyone a week to respond and I'll make week 9 games.

Are you talking about points in this tourney, or TPA points?

Both. Whatever place you end up in the tourney you'll get the commensurate TPA points.
