This tournament rewards people who are consistent and can play solidly over a long term. Each round guarantees:
- A minimum of 2 players from each group will advance each round.
- Players who win half their games will advance to the next round
- If players are in a group of equal players, all players have the possibility of advancing
- If there is one dominant player and 3 equal players after the games are played, everyone would advance
- Consistent sound play is rewarded with the opportunity to advance
- There are no tie breaks (so the players with the same point totals will advance.)
For those of you who always seem to finish second, here is your tournament. For those of you who think you should have been able to defeat the player who wins the group, here is your chance to prove it. For those of you who have blundered away a game to lose chances at advancing, here is your redemption. Of course, there can only be 1 winner at the end but it should be a fun tournament to find out who that is.
I hope that all of you have fun participating!
Cheers.
