Congratulations to Rodion, loes, and thebest712 on winning Assorted Triples 17!
This is the seventeenth installment in a series of short triples tournaments.
This tournament will feature 8 teams battling it out in a single-elimination format. All games will be sequential and have automatic deployment. There will be 3 rounds, with a different map and settings used in each round. No map will be used twice, and the settings will be mixed in order to challenge the participants. There will be 1 game per round.
In round 1, you will generally find medium-sized maps. It could also be a quirky map; though, if it is, it will be one of the smaller/less complicated ones. In round 2, you will generally find large maps. Maps with lots of territories, but probably not a lot of quirkiness, will be found here. In round 3, you will generally find more complicated maps. In this category are included some of the toughest of CC's maps.
EDIT: A makeshift 4th round has been added for this tournament to account for the extra 8 teams.
For this tournament, the maps and settings we will be using are: Round 1: Benelux --- Escalating, Adjacent, No Fog Round 2: Vancouver --- No Spoils, Chained, Foggy Round 3: Rail Africa --- Escalating, Unlimited, Foggy Round 4: Rail Africa --- Nuclear, Adjacent, Foggy

Just an FYI: Because there was so much interest, I made Ass Trips 17 into a 16-team, 4-round tourney. You now get Rail Africa in both the semis and finals.
Going forward, though, I would like to keep these as 8-team tournaments. I will not be extending the tournies in the future, so if you're late, too bad!
So, I was about to brag that my team reached 3 finals out of 3 Assorted Triples participations and I find out we'll have an extra round? Bubble bursters!

Yeah, this is the only Assorted Trips tourney with 16 teams rather than 8.
Looks like you'll need to win one more game before you reach the finals.
