Officially posting this here:
tournament Friday, August 18th @ 8pm CENTRAL. Use a conversion calculator if you're not in that time zone.
Let me know if you can make it
Donations towards pot welcome but not at all necessary.
I'm putting 1000 of my FG into the pot.
There is no buy-in for this first tournament.
So far signed up are:
Vrael/Fizzle/Fizzle - Zealer
Tonice/Vrael./Vrael - Conc Barb
there are no character requirements other than GM Melee Rules.
All duels are 2/3 sets, ft6, wb2. ALL Gm Melee Rules do apply. You must find a spot to duel where your fire will not interfere with another duel. The halls around the cloister will house 2 duels and the cloister will house 2 duels if necessary.
We will FFA to find who duels who (stand in a huddle and hack away at everyone with non-tap gear)
IF we have an even # of people: 4, 6, or 8
The last standing duels the first to die
2nd to last to die duels 2nd to die
3rd to last to die duels 3rd to die.
4th to last to die duels 4th to die.
IF we have an uneven # of people: 5 or 7 people
The last standing does not duel that round.
2nd to last to die duels first to die
3rd to last to die duels 2nd to die.
4th to last to die duels 3rd to die.
This round is known as the Quarterfinals.
4 people move on to the next round unless we started with only 4 people, in which case we skip the semifinals and move to the finals.
If we had 6 or less people in the tourney we do not FFA for this round, you simply can't duel someone you already dueled. If it's impossible to determine who duels who with that in mind then we FFA. If not then we don't have to.
For instance, say we have 5 people. Imonfier won the last FFA
Fizzle and Vrael dueled each other, Fizzle won.
StrongLad and IIIXIII dueled each other, StrongLad won, and this challenge had the highest duel count.
Stronglad and IIIXIII move on, Fizzle moves on.
StrongLad and IIIXIII just dueled each other, so they cannot duel each other.
IIIXIII lost his previous challenge, so he gets to duel Fizzle, since he won a duel already, StrongLad will duel Imonfier's character.
Straight forward enough. This round is known as the Semifinals.
Now for the finals.
The losers of the Semifinals duel each other, the winners duel each other.
The loser of the losers duel is 4th place. The winner of the losers duel is 3rd place, the loser of the winners duel is 2nd place, the winner of the winners duel is 1st place.
If we have more than 8 people, we ffa in separate games based on random # selection done in a channel and narrow it down to 4 people in each game, then combine games into game #1 and commence the Quarterfinals.
Any questions you have can wait until the night of unless they are urgent, in which case PM me directly.
