2025 NFL Season

RULES
This is a 1 vs. 1 singles tournament that will follow the NFL football season. 32 teams and we will follow the NFL season and playoff format. Tournament is open to freebies and premium players, I just ask that freebies keep pace with play … 5 maps each week.

GAME PLAY

All games are SEQUENTIAL and NO POLY ... other than that all settings are accepted…and all maps are in play.
A 20-round cap will be in place for all maps.

PRIZES

Super Bowl champ -- 1,200 CC credits
Super Bowl runner-up -- 600 CC credits
Regular season highest point differential -- 300 CC credits

Games are scored based on a five-map showdown.

First quarter — home-field settings chosen by player
Second quarter — home-field settings chosen by player
*Third quarter — a Geographic map with some relation to the home city.
*Fourth quarter — a Geographic map with some relation to the home city.
*Special teams — random map

* These maps will be escalating, chained, foggy

SCORING
A scoring formula (see below) will reward players for quick victories.
Note: the special teams map has its own scoring system.

Total points will be used to determine the official winner — it will be possible for a team to win just 2 of the 5 maps and still come out in front. Although winning 3 of 5 maps will often land you a victory.

• In the case of overtime...
During the regular season...

Hold an advantage of 3 cards or fewer and the game is deemed a tie*
Hold an advantage of 4-5 cards and you earn a winning field goal.
Hold an advantage of 6+ cards and you earn a winning touchdown.

During the playoffs

* If the tie option is the result, a random map will decide the overtime point.
(Win in 8 or less rounds for a winning TD…win in 9-15 rounds to get a winning FG)
If the game goes 16+ rounds then it stays tied and we'll play another overtime map.

SEASON

We will be following the 2024 NFL regular season.
Each team gets 17 regular season games and one bye week.
The top seven teams in each conference advance to the playoffs.
The top team in each conference earns a bye during the wildcard round.
Higher seeds will host playoff games.
The winner of the Super Bowl will be declared the winning team for this tournament.

Scoring Example:
DENVER 14 7 0 9 — 30
KANSAS CITY 3 3 6 7 — 19
1st quarter
• Denver wins in 6 rounds
2nd quarter
• Denver wins in 13 rounds
3rd quarter
• Kansas City wins in 11 rounds
4th quarter
• Kansas City wins in 17 rounds
• Denver FG

*Denver wins special teams map in 13 rounds, so gets 1 FG (credited in the 4th Q).

• A scoreboard section will update scores throughout each week, while standings will be updated at the end of each week.

Btw, in the overtime you have criteria for number of cards - what about no spoils games?

Good question. No spoils games will be credited with a default 3 spoils to the winner

I had this question from your other tournament, but never bothered asking LOL.

You have to earn the right to keep your team by posting a winning record in the previous season. Those players get first choice.

Sorry man :)

Seattle got snatched up just before you requested. Do you have a secondary choice?

We are halfway full ... the entire AFC East was the first to fill up completely.

Find a squad and join in on the fun.
