[spoiler= Layout] [img]https://i.imgur.com/1ux1Vpd.png[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/erAbrwt.png[/img] [b]Time Commitment:[/b] This tournament will take up to a [b]YEAR[/b] to complete. This tournament is designed for players that want a steady flow of 24 h games throughout the year, starting with 1 game in the first few months then slowly increasing until the finale! Please note that the month of July will not have any games running for this tournament. [b]Entry Requirement:[/b] 1. Each player must have a join date of January 1, 2022 or earlier and must have a minimum of 60 games. 2. Each player will have 40 rating points deducted at the start of the tournament. This will be a manual adjustment. An email message from me will be sent prior as a reminder. 3. Respond with your name and an available territory from the map above in this thread to enter. [b]Layout:[/b] All games will be played on the following settings: Deathmatch, Sunny (no fog), Increasing cards, Chain Fortification, Normal Card Turn in, Original Dice. Every player will pick their territory when they sign up for this tournament. Once the tournament starts, there will be two phases: [b]Phase 1: The Ordering Phase (up to 48 hours)[/b] Every player will start with their territory that they own and 1 attacking order. This is where you pick an adjacent territory to your own to attack. To conquer this territory, you will fight a battle on the map assigned to that territory. You will message me only with your attack order I will compile a list of attackers to the same territory. This will determine the number of players for that map being fought for. You will get a message from me that the next round is up. You have 48 hours to send in your attacking orders. How to get more attacking orders? There are two methods to increase the number of attacking orders. 1. Own a region bonus. For example, if you win Australian region, you will get 2 additional attacking orders. 2. The more territories you own, the more attacking orders you will get according to this chart: 1 – 2 territories = 1 attacking order 3 – 5 territories = 2 attacking orders 6 – 8 territories = 3 attacking orders 9 – 11 territories = 4 attacking orders 12 – 14 territories = 5 attacking orders 15 – 17 territories = 6 attacking orders etc. Multiple attacks can be ordered out to one territory. If you decided to use 3 or more attacks on 1 territory compared to the other players, you automatically conquer that territory without a battle/game. Rules & Limitations: • Everyone will need to complete this within the time frame of 48 hours. Otherwise, you will forfeit your right to attack. • Unused attacking orders cannot be used in the following rounds. You must use all your attacking orders or lose it. • If you miss two consecutive ordering phases, you will be kicked out of the tournament and your territories will become neutral. • If only 1 player decides to attack a neutral territory, the territory is automatically won by that player without a battle/game. • No sharing of attacking orders on the main map. No diplomacy, negotiating or conspiring on the main map. For breaking this rule, we use the rule of the 2 strikes, and you are out. Just make sure nothing is said regarding teaming up, who should attack who, etc. • Make sure your attacking orders are valid. Sending attacking orders that are not adjacent to the territories that you own will be ignored (since I will be receiving a minimum of 42 attacking orders and will not have the time to double-check them!) • If I received attacking orders that exceeds your allowance, only the first orders of your allowance will be followed. The rest will be ignored. [b]Phase 2: The Attacking Phase (up to 25 days)[/b] All games must be completed within 25 days. In other words, the attackers have 25 days to conquer the territory. If the territory is not conquered within 25 days, the owner or the defender of that territory wins and holds the territory on the main map. This includes if the defender is defeated in the game but there is no winner to the game after 25 days. All games that are not completed within 25 days will end in a [b]draw[/b]. If all games are completed before the deadline of 25 days, we move on to the next round. No deliberately stalling or extending turns as a defender on your territories. This will be seen as exploiting the odds of winning by time expiration and will not be tolerated. Any players that leave the tournament, their territories will become neutral. Bonus on the drop: If you have a bonus region on the drop, please notify me ASAP. I will end the game and restart a new one. Please note you must notify me of this within the first round for this to happen. Tactical m/s Rules: There are some circumstances where players do not want the defender to keep their territory on the main map or an attacker from gaining a territory on the main map. These scenarios are: 1. Trying to break their region bonus on the main map or preventing a bonus. 2. The player is close to winning 50% on the main map. If you are planning to m/s on a player you must first notify me (periwinkle) and announce this in the chat at least 1 round before in the chat that this is your intention. Prizes: There is a maximum number of players of 42. If there are less than 42 players, any unclaimed territories will be neutral on the main map. Own 50% of the map and you will be the tournament winner. If 50% of the main map is not owned by a single player by December 31, 2023, then the player with the most territories win. The winner of the tournament will get up to 70% of the rating points (1176 points) and tokens collected. Second place will get 20% (336 points) and third will get 10% (168 points). [spoiler=ties] In an event of a first-place tie (2 players): each first-place winner will get 45% of the points and the second-place winner(s) will share 10% of the points. If there are 3 or more first-place winners then the entire pot will be equally split. There will be no 2nd or 3rd place winners. In an event of a 2nd-place tie (2 or more players): each second-place winner will share 30% of the points. There will be no 3rd place winners. In an event of a 3rd-place tie (2 or more players): each third-place winner will share 10% of the points.

I'm in. Europe 1814 will be my territory.

I’m in, Falkland Islands

In, ancient greece

I am in! New York City

So...If I chose say Artic Circle, and then attack Europe 1814...you and I would then battle 1 game on 1814, if I won, then I get 1814 and you are dead? Or is it multiple games (like 2/3, etc)? What if I attack 1814, and in the same "round" say Switzerland attacks 1814. 1814 has 2 battles, and could lose both, who then wins 1814? Is there a tie break where 1814 goes to the winner of Artic Circle and Switzerland played on 1814? Can I tentatively be the Isthmus of Panama?

In. Europe please

I’m in. San Francisco please.

In. Brazil

[/quote] yes i will be eliminated from the tournament [quote=dough_boy]Or is it multiple games (like 2/3, etc)?

[/quote] If there are 2 attackers on Europe 1814, then it will still be 1 game but it will be a 3p (1v1v1) game. 1 attacking order means 1 game....in fact the first couple of months everyone will have 1 game :) [quote=dough_boy]Can I tentatively be the Isthmus of Panama?[/quote] no, when you sign up, you must commit to a territory. (plus it will be tough to keep track of all 42 territories already without people changing their minds! lol I assume you want Isthmus of Panama then?

Ohhhh yes i love this map in please

[quote=coco]Ohhhh yes i love this map in please[/quote] I need your territory before i can sign you up

Black Sea please

In. Middle East
