maybe... we can try it out if you'd like to check...

crap, you forgot rox on that list fasces... if ashley is out, we are still at 12, if not, we are at 13 and need one more... which means I have to reshuffle my sheet...

yep he's that forgettable. :P

sure, you want to give it a test?

yes, set em up for full day phases so itl start automatically, and that way In case of emergency I can leave... so yea, set up a couple for us.

If there is any more room I would like to join.

ask fasces... if he listens to my suggestion, we have a cut off of 12(if ashley is out and rox is in) or 14 if they are both in... if its 14, you would be the last one to get in...

I'm going to sit this one out. If there's another one I'll do it.

possibles depending on fasces final decision on numbers, and if Rox wants in still:
superflemgobuious

Are we going to play all games at once? That will be a lot if time commitment.

I doubt it... probably back to back... most of the people don't have between 110 and 120 to put in to 22-23 games at once... it will probably be like, say me vs you 2 times(once at each country) etc. etc... so 2 at a time probably.

If there is any more room I would like to join, too.
If we're too much, maybe we could split competitors in 2 preliminary heats?
If we're 14 each heat would be 7 players. Each one plays against the other 6 (double round robin) and top 4 advance...

having divisions might be interesting. when we reach the finals it gives the competitors a chance to play someone new

my sheet is going out da window...lol. we are at 14 now unless Rox wants out... hmm... Guaroz does make a decent point, 26 games each is a lot of games... 2 heats would make it a little easier... oh fasces... where are you???

I'll have a go.

thats 15

I'm in only if we play ita vs ger as first (cause i think f vs a is not equilibrate)
and I didn't understand: 2 games now 1 with ger 1 with ita and total sc count counts or what is the format?

we're talking at least two games, give both players the chance at each country.

so then it has to be total sc count or double win...?

I think it should just be number of wins throughout games...

we're still waiting for Fasces to come in and give his opinions.
I don't see total count working out because the wins will likely be 18 or 19, I would hope there's strong enough competition to not let them get away with much more.

well if you do 2 games its hard if both win 1... and if you do 3 games its not fair cause 1 of the players gets 2 times "the better" country....

so how you want to do that? 2 out of 3 and something like the "home" player can chose which country he wants twice...?

I think that it would be how ever many total wins you have... instead of center count...
also, I think since we have such interest, maybe we do it like this... 16 players, 2 heats...
8 players in A, 8 players in B
top 4 from A round 1 move on, top 4 from B round 1 move on
top 2 from A round 2, top 2 from B round 2
top player from each play for the finals...

also, each player would play every other player exactly twice per round... once as each country(trying to talk to Oli about this now so we can set it up properly).

and finals best of 7!? :D

even if the two players both get a win it doesnt matter... it is total wins out of the entire tourny (or heat) and if there are any ties we can just have a tiebreaker series or something

Ok, I am closing now, no more entries...

It will be a sorta round robin where you play people probably 3 times. The 8 people with the best record (wins give 3 , draws give 1 point) will make it to the playoffs. Best of 5 for each series is the playoffs.

During the games the players are allowed to decide which 1 v 1 they play, if they come to agreement then they play that one, if not it will be G v I, as that is the most balanced. (but it may get kinda boring if we have nothing but one map...)

I will be doing some pm runs tonight to confirm entries and sometime next week I will release the schedule. For each game, I will post the week that it should start, so the people are not forced down by time constraints.

edit: I like butterheads suggestions of heats...

play 3 times? what about having someone get the ""better" country?
