hi dooch, i'd like to comment on the points that you're giving for wins and losses. it's a nice idea to give points to the looser also, if he manages to hold out for a certain number of rounds. however, i think that giving an extra point to the winner if he wins fast is problematic. why? because 1) players with a small home map (e.g. doodle earth) have an advantage over players with a large home map, as they will be able to win more games very fast, 2) this is a strategic game and winning in less than 4 rounds is rather a sign of a very lucky starting position or lucky dice than of strategic gameplay.
still, i really like the idea of the tournament and am looking forward to it!
thanks!

thats a good point and i will change it to just the loosers have a chance of still gaining a point.
No! i meant more than 6 round but not including!
i have amended the main post so hopefully it will be clearer for people to understand.
good question!!!
sorry i need to just confirm the bonus point to everyone!
if you win the most amount of points you can get is 3.
if you loose and you play at home you get 0.
if you loose, playing away and last over 6 rounds you get a bonus point.
could people just confirm they get that or if there are any questions please ask.....thats what im here for!!!!
