Do you have a knack for swaying people to your side? Do you know how to pull people from sitting on the fence over to your side? Are you skillful in manuevering your way around stubborn people who refuse to take sides? Well then, this tournament is for you!
Welcome to the thirty-third in a series of tournaments called Nothing But Neutral Ground!
Introduction
In many maps we have on CC, the neutral territories play an integral role in the gameplay of the map. In these maps, the neutral territories usually take up more than half of the territories, and in some cases, even close to all of them! This series of tournaments celebrates the key role of these neutral troops and territories, and tests how well you are able to sway these neutral territories to serve your purpose, or neglect them if they are of no use to you.
As stated in the title, the map you will be playing for this tournament is Salem's Switch. Other maps that will be used in future tournaments are listed below.
[spoiler=Maps]Cuban Missile Crisis
Island of Doom
Knights
Operation Drug War

The top 8 players by CC points will be seeded, and the rest of the players will be randomly assigned into the bracket using random.org.
