Rounds

Each round, contestants will be placed in groups of 2 players. Each group will play 5 games in a row with the specifications mentioned above. The winner of each game receives 1 point, the loser receives 0 points. After 5 games, the player with the most points is the winner of the group. Make sure you play all 5 games, the loser of a group may qualify as best runner up!

Preliminary Round

The entire preliminary round will take place on a single day:
Sunday, June 12th 2016

Groups will be assigned using 2 start times (selected at sign up):

• Morning: 11:00h / 11am Amsterdam time
• Afternoon: 19:00h / 7pm Amsterdam time

Following rounds

Following rounds will be scheduled as a group within a larger time frame to accommodate groups with players from completely different time zones.

Scheduling will take place on our forums in the topic created for your group. As a group you will schedule a date and time to attempt to play all 5 games in a row. During the round, please check your group topic at least once a day to complete the scheduling as quickly as possible. If you are unable to schedule within the given time frame, the tournament organization may disqualify the player that is most accountable for the delay.

Each player in the group will post their available hours for every day of the entire week like the following example:

This way you can easily find matching dates and times for all players, even after a first attempt fails. Posting you 'could perhaps play tomorrow around 5pm' is insufficient and inefficient because when it fails, the process will have to start all over again.
