Players in green are guaranteed a spot, whereas the rest will each face a 4-way intradivisional match to qualify for the main tournament.

Ex: Seeds 13, 17, 21, 25 from each division will have a match, 14, 18, 22, 26 etc.

Once each division of 16 is set players will compete in the same fashion as last year, 1v9, 2v10, 3v11 ... 8v16.

My goal is to set up the main tournament in December and start the main tourney on January 3rd.

I will have a fun prize for each division winner. Whichever division winner wins the tournament gets to choose my display name for a month following the tournament. The runner up chooses my avatar, and the other two divisional winners choose my custom title and personal text.

Of course all of these things must stay within the rules and such.

[Jamesman42]

I'm debating wanting to be included.

[LieLowTheWantedMan]

This is only the second one I've been around for and I didn't really pay much attention to the first because I barely knew people. What decides who gets in?

[Jamesman42]

[LieLowTheWantedMan]

Ohh I see.

[Ultimetalhead]

YAYAYAYAYAY

[FlyingBIZKIT]

How does this work?

[BlobVanDam]

How does this work?

Each round is a fight to the death. It helps clear up server space by deleting users, and helps create an unspoken bond between the survivors. This is why we're allowed to abstain from the tournament, since in the US you can't legally force someone into a fight to the death, however the shame and dishonour from not competing mean you're basically dead to us anyway.

Actually, it's just a tournament where users are put against each other 1 on 1 each round in a poll, and you vote one, until eventually we have a DTF member of the year.

[LieLowTheWantedMan]

Too bad I'm gonna get pwned by UMH. Oh well.

[BlobVanDam]

Nice prize ideas, Nick.
Are we going to have a thread for this in GD to make sure we get full participation? A lot of people, myself included, don't often venture into the poll section so might miss it.

[Nick]

Yeah, once it starts up I'll make an awareness thread.

Edit: Someone just told me Nate was permabanned which I forgot, so luckily whoever has him will be winning their first round.

[Zook]

Well I have absolutely no chance of winning... At least I can supply the winning medallions.

[antigoon]

lol, nate.

[Heretic]

Well I have absolutely no chance of winning... At least I can supply the winning medallions.

At least you're on there. *needs to post more*

[yorost]

Yeah, once it starts up I'll make an awareness thread.

Why not just fill the next eligible person in?  Not like this is so serious we have to worry about the seeds being screwed up.

[YtseBitsySpider]

hmm...well...at least I got this far.
Ravenheart is flaveur-du-jour so he'll likely come out of that one.
In fact he is my pick to take home the title.

[Ultimetalhead]

Oh thank god there's a qualifier. With how the colors were set up and everything, I thought I'd be up against bosk in the first round.

[chknptpie]

So I need to do more post-whoring?! Jesus....

[YtseBitsySpider]

So I need to do more whoring?! Jesus....

you're going in the right direction there.....

[Nick]

Yeah, that's a ton of work to let 1 extra person in... not happening.

saw that one coming 

[KevShmev]

7 or 8 years now, I have been using the KevShmev handle, and some still don't know that there is no 'c' in the Shmev part.

[Nick]

My bad, fixed!

[yorost]

Ton of work?  Pick the next name and replace Nate's with it.

[kirksnosehair]

But your user name is KevSchmev

Does not compute 

[AcidLameLTE]

Can I get removed again please?

[Nick]

Nate, Adami, and Acid will all forfeit their first match.

[Nick]

That's not how it works, Nate would be removed, a new name added at the END of the list as it is by post count, and then all divisions would get reset.

...but that's what I meant in the first place.  Is the seeding based on post count really more important than including a few extra members when someone is forfeit?

No it isn't.  Nick, in his poor attempt at being funny again, changed it.  Another one of his power trips.

And I see it is back to normal again.

[kirksnosehair]

Ahhh, shit, I thought it looked wrong.     

[Nihil-Morari]

Yeah! Still in! Bring it on!

[Volk9]

 

[sonatafanica]

i vote that i be disqualified on the grounds that i have been banned three times this year and am just an all-around unlikable person
