rules for igby 2

[Wolf]

this is still up for discussions of course but i am just preparing a post


1. - Selected games will be played for the entire five week period July 1st to August 5th



2. - Minimum of 20 games. Each team will choose the same amount of games – send your game selections to Wolf no later than June 30th. Wolf will inform all sites of game selections upon receipt of selections. Should duplicate game selections be received, the team with the highest number of registered players will yield to the team with the smaller number of players. The smaller team will select another game. Wolf will advise of all details once final list of games have been posted. Once games are selected and posted by Wolf. Games will be played with default dip switches


3. - Auto fire is not allowed


4. - Adjudication – Players are required to submit a screenshot. Players are encouraged to save their INPs for all game play. Disputes (if any) will be handled on a case by case basis and reviewed by all sites.


5. - Submissions: players should submit their scores via this – as we want to maintain as live a scoreboard as possible, please submit early and often. Please do not hold on to score submissions.



6. - All games must be completed and submissions received no later than 11:59PM Eastern Standard Time on August 5th. Any scores submitted after this time will not be valid. Again, submit early and often.

7. scoring will be Top 5 from each team per game will score points for their team.

if missing anything mention it and anything that needs to be changed

I'd take out the first part of this:

4. - Adjudication – we all know or know of each other generally speaking so there should be no need for this. Players are required to submit a screenshot. Players are encouraged to save their INPs for all game play. Disputes (if any) will be handled on a case by case basis and reviewed by all sites.

and just leave it as this:

4. - Adjudication – Players are required to submit a screenshot. Players are encouraged to save their INPs for all game play. Disputes (if any) will be handled on a case by case basis and reviewed by all sites.

You reckon?

i would like to have everything finalized by May 25th so we can start to move on to setting up the scoreboard and recruiting players and teams

I still vote for a minimum of 20 games. If there are 4 teams, each team picks 5 games. If there are more they each pick 4. 16 games seems really small for a whole month with 100-200 people playing for a handful of spots on each. If we go 16 games, I think we should shorten the competition by a week or count 6-7 scores per team. IMO, going to 20 games probably makes more sense than messing with the timeframe or score count.

Should we also include verbiage about all teams agreeing on selected games being playable by their team members to clarify games requested might be dropped, like Tron, for control layout?

Also, I still think we need to agree on and state that no changes will be made mid-tournament without representatives from all teams agreeing? This includes changes in team membership, banning/not banning tactics (Splatterhouse), games being dropped or swapped (Nitroball last year), and anything else that may come up? Some things are certainly best left to Wolf, but I think we should clearly agree on and state rules for changes to avoid drama. It also serves to let people know who their reps are should they have questions or issues.
