It's time for a new Tournament...Ratings Bash I

[geoschmo]

Announcing the start of the Ratings Bash I

This will be a simple four round, invitational tournament. Players will be seeded according to their current standings in Slynky's Space Empires IV Ratings Page.

This tournament is by invitation to the top 16 players currently listed in the Ratings. If any of the 16 choose not to compete, alternates will be chosen in order from the remaining players after the top 16. If 16 of the players in the current Ratings are not interested in competing, unranked players will be seeded at the bottom on a first some first serve basis, but the tournament will not be expanded beyond 16 players.

Here are the current rankings. The Ratings change constantly as games finish, but for tourney purposes these will be the rankings used.

Here's the current bracket: This is subject to change if any of the invitees choose not to compete.

Check the bracket here.


All games will be one on one, Koth style. Game settings can be tweaked if the players both agree to it, but I will encourage no changes that will cause the games to go on too long. The idea is to get through this in a reasonable amount of time.

All players will agree to have the results of their games used for ranking purposes.

I will contact everybody by email, but feel free to state here if you are not interested.
