Theme
In this tournament everybody will play 3 1v1 games every round: 1 home map, 1 away map and 1 neutral map. Everybody will choose their own home map, but watch out for the bank! Your home map will be foreclosed if you lose in your own home map even once. When this happens you will ditch your old home map and take over the home map of your opponent.

[spoiler= example]Player X chooses homemap "world 2.1" and wins 2 of his games in the first round, of which one his homemap. Next round he can keep his homemap and uses "world 2.1" once again as a home map. However in round 2 he wins 2 games but loses on his home map. He advances to round 3 with his round 2 opponent's map as a home map, hence not using "world 2.1" as a home map anymore.[/spoiler]

  • away map: this is the map picked by your opponent as his home map

I'm in the proces of receiving feedback on this change(I reserve the right to withdraw this change)

I'm going to lock this thread until you determine which way you want it. It sounds like some players may have a preference, so I think it's best to get it set before sign ups.

Either way you do it is fine, as far as tournaments go. Just pick which way and send me a PM then I'll unlock it.

news: Babagonosh just withdrew from the tournament. As a consequence Chidone can advance to the next round(round 2 ==> round 3) by forfeit. The same happens for rmjw10 in Round 2 second chance.
