Tournament

**Polski_orzel** · December 09, 2006, 07:10 PM

Who wants to have a M2:TW tournament?? In the next 2 weeks we can get as many people as possibly (hopefully like 100+). I will make a standings.

The tournament will run basically like the Fifa World Cup. There will be a number of qualification groups. Each group will be set up by your region, so it will make it easier for people to play each other. That way an Australian doesn't have to wake up @ 2:00 am to play someone in Toronto

Hopefully, if the right number of people apply, we will have roughly 6 player groups. Everyone will play each other twice. The top 2 players (if it is a 5-6 player group) of each group will automatically advance to the Final Round. The 3rd place player from each group will go into a playoff to get into the Final Round.

Once every player qualifies there will be the Final Round. It will be just like the Fifa World cup where each player will be placed in a group. Hopefully we will be able to place them in terms of regions again.

This time, 2 players from each group will advance. Let's say, for example, that there will be 8 groups of 4. 16 players will make the next round. Each group will be numbered (group #1, group #2 ect...).

After the group phase, the top seeds will be placed seperately into one of the next 8 matches. The secondary seeds will be placed into matches with the top seeds. This is where the tournament tree starts, and most of you probably know what a tournament tree looks like, so I don't have to explain it.

The final match will be of three legs (so best of 3 matches). There will also be a third place match, however this will be one leg, unlike the final.

Hopefully if this works out, we can do this every few months.

I'm in.

But I won't be able to compete til after christmas. I have to be out of town and I also will be replacing my computer over the holidays to one that can handle MP without lagging.

How will this work? exactly, do we get to pick a faction or is it assigned, random....? Do we have to play certain terrain, seige battles, etc. ?

Sorry for the noob questions.
