The Fall Open - Double Elimination/2 Bracket Tourney

*name edited :P*

For the end of this month, we will be having a small double elimination tournament. There will be 2 events: Full Force and No Force. The NF and FF events are two seperate divisions.

Registration
Registration for this tournament ends on Saturday October 23rd at 11:59PM GMT. No more applicants will be accepted after this date. To register please leave a comment with what type of dueling you'd like to participate in (FF, NF, or both).


Rounds:
Each participant will be paired up with another randomly and the first round will be announced on Sunday October 24th at 5AM GMT.

After the match list is announced, the participants will have until the end of Tuesday October 26th to complete their matches and post the results.

The next rounds will be posted after that and completion dates will be determind at that time.


The Matches:
Each match between participants will be a best out of 5. NF matches will be fought in usual duels and FF matches will use the amffduelchallenge system. For FF all force powers are acceptable. If the two participants cannot get together to fight their matches, the winner will be decided by a coin toss. If the results of your matches must be decided by a coin flip more than once, you are automatically eliminated from the tournament. When the match is completed, the loser must come to this thread and post the results.


Double Elimination/2 Bracket:
In double elimination tournaments a single defeat does not preclude the player from winning. After the 1st round, the players are subdivided into two brackets: the winners of the 1st round play in the Winners Bracket while the losers of ther 1st round go to Losers Bracket.

In every round, the losers in the Winners Bracket step down to play in the Losers Bracket. Also at every round, the losers in the Losers Bracket are eliminated from the tournament, while the winners are paired with each other for the next round. At the very last final round, the winner of the Winners Bracket fights with the winner of the Losers Bracket for the championship. The final match cannot be decided by a coin toss.

Yah but its also got to be done the way it is. This tourney, is well, basically to test skill and to have fun. And well, if every match, you say "I can't make it, just flip a coin," this can be a disadvantage to the player that wants to play. Its about skill, this tourney, and if you just keep haveing the coin flipped, there is no skill involved. I know there may be complications in the new rule, but I think it is needed. Just my opinion. :cool:

Tido: The rule about elimination by a second coin flip can lead to an odd elimenation, you should just make the 1 rule that the final cannot be decided by a flip because you might complicate things otherwise.

Adding 2 new rules:

If the results of your matches must be decided by a coin flip more than once, you are automatically eliminated from the tournament.

The final match cannot be decided by a coin toss.

Hmm, well, I see the rules here state that the loser is to post the results, but I don't see Pimp anywhere around, so, and with all my apologies...

I won both NF and FF, 3-2 and 3-1 respectively. Great duels Pimp, that was very intense! :)
