October 2021 Monthly Challenge Blind Companion Tournament: Gold
Hosted by groovysmurf AND Caymanmew
Mods can join! (except groovysmurf, Caymanmew and EBConquer)
Hello people,
This is a blind companion tournament for the October Monthly Challenge. That means you will be signing up without knowledge of the map. This tournament will be played on the map and settings needed to receive the gold token.
We are looking for 16 players to play 15 games over the month of October. Three games will be sent once per week.
People with priority get in first regardless of when they post to join. You receive priority by signing up for the previous month's challenge BEFORE the sign-up deadline and not getting in.
Schedule
October 1st - 3 games
October 8th - 3 games
October 15th - 3 games
October 22nd - 3 games

Rules
Each round of games will be filled randomly, using random. org. Whomever has the best record over 15 games, wins. In the event of a tie, tiebreaker game(s) on the same map and settings (though as Poly 3, 2 player games) will be sent until players are no longer tied. For example, if two people tie, one game will be made and the winner will also win the tournament. If three people tie, three games will be made (A vs B; B vs C; A vs C) and the winner of two games will win the tournament. If four people tie, six games will be made (A vs B; A vs C; A vs D; B vs C; B vs D; C vs D) and hopefully just one person wins all three of their games and we can end this craziness!
If five or more people tie, I'll just quit the site and let someone else deal.
Tie-breaker games will not be played in October and therefore will not count towards the October Challenge scoreboard.
If you quit the tournament you are not eligible to get a medal for the October Monthly Challenge!
Signups end September 30th!
Multiple iterations of the tournament will be run if filled. Keep signing up until the deadline!
