2nd 1v1 Clan Challenge [Congrats EMPIRE!] MVP: pconnolly365

The original idea from
barterer2002 , he has given me permission to run the 2nd edition of the clan event.
EMPIRE won the inaugural event!
The original intent here is to have fun and show depth and breadth of clans so its intended to not have "specialist" dominating the challenges per se with a fun quick bracket tournament.
SIGN UP DEADLINE JULY 29! START DATE: Sept 1!
show: format
A minimum of 8 clans will be used, I will take as many as sign up (depending on the number there may be a play in round).
show: map and settings restrictions
For purposes of this event there will be no freestyle, manual or trench settings.
show: player restrictions
The purpose here is to show the depth of a clan rather than merely that there are 1 or 2 stud 1v1 players in it. With this in mind, each clan must provide at least 12 different participants with each participant taking a maximum of 4 series out of the 40. 41st Game series will NOT count towards a players game series total.
show: map usage
Each clan may use the same map only twice in its home set and may not use Classic more than once (since it will also be used for the 41st game). If a map is repeated within the rules the players must be different in each series. Random can be used and does not count toward map totals.
show: Timeframe
1v1 games are relatively quick in nature so the schedule will go Week 1 Monday will have Clan 1 (higher seeded clan) create and send all games to Clan 2. Clan 1 must be in their home games by Tuesday. Clan 2 must be in their away games by Thursday. Week 2 will be the Classic neutral game only, Clan 1 creating and joining by Tuesday and Clan 2 joining by Thursday Week 3 will see Clan 2 creating all their home games and sending them to Clan 1 on Monday with all joined by Tuesday and Clan 1 joining all games by Thursday.
show: seeding
Prior to the start, one representative of each of the clans will send in a seeding chart of all other clans (not including their own). If the organizer finds any of the seeding lists unreasonable he will send such list to 3 other clan reps and if 2 out of 3 find it unreasonable that seeding list will be discarded. Depending on the numbers there may be first round byes.
show: timing
Sign Ups End: July 29
show: reporting
Each clan shall set up a page in the clan forums detailing the clan war and when one or the other wins their 21st set (must be over, not merely not in doubt) send me a PM with the results.
show: Other Info and Penalties
Clans may negotiate settings outside the "general" settings for their specific wars. Penalties:
show: Freemium Policy
I think a good rule to go by is one "series" per freemium, per round. But they need to play enough keeps / keep slots open enough that it doesn't hold up the round.
All other issues not listed here will be decided at my discretion, and if a conflict of interest occurs a CD will be consulted.
To sign up I'll need your clan name, primary contact and secondary contact. If you'd like to list the players you may but it will not be necessary.

As last years finalists alongside us, you could quite feasibly get a bye as one of the top seeds?

I'm flexible with start up. The original thought was starting sometime in early-mid of August.
Tho I agree w leehar, there are still play ins / byes to be considered so there may not be a need.
Ultimately people can comment here and if there is strong support for Sept 1 and not an August date I can work with that.
Please vote on timing.

The best of 5 series, does that have to include the same player in all five of the games?

Yes. 20 home maps, best of 5 for each map. One player plays the entire best of 5.
IE: IcePack Classic ESC ch sun (best of 5)
Patrickaa Lux flat rate ch sun (best of 5)
Etc

Did you send a pm call-out to all the competitors from the previous iteration?
Also, feel free to use the article by Bart since he's handed over the reigns to the tourney to you.
1v1 Clan Challenge by Barterer2002 (G1) show
As long as clan wars have been around there has been a conflict about the inclusion of 1v1 games in the batches. Many clan matches have included only team games while some have had one or two "best of" 1v1 series. With the recent addition of clan medals and the announcement that any series that included a 1v1 series would not be eligible for a clan medal the debate came up again.scottp notes "I think most of the guys in The Legion started out as good singles players before joining a clan, so it's good to exercise those abilities in a team format (like a college track or wrestling meet - you compete as an individual but win as a team)." Mudpuppy notes "Personally, I am a huge 1v1 fan. When I first joined the clan world I was disappointed to discover that heads up games were widely shunned." And even within clans: "As a clan, about half of the Dragoons were chomping at the bit to join while the other half showed little interest."
