This will be a Swiss style tourney for 16 players. I will set it to 8 rounds.
I'm not great at describing how it works so here is a link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swiss-system_tournament.
Each round players will play 4 1v1 games against their opponent. So free players can play but would need all slots free.
Settings
Conquer 500
Auto
No Spoils
Chained
Foggy
No Trench
30 Round Limit
I will be using challonge.com to show who is playing who and the scores etc. That site will work out the winner and sort any ties. If players are completely tied there will be a best of 5 decider. Challonge will use seeds to decide but this would not be fair for a CC tourney.
I would like the winner to choose the map for the next tourney but the settings will be the same.

Re: Dazza's Swiss Tourney - Conquer 500 (1/16)
A 15 round swiss? Why not just go a round robin? Swiss is for waaayyyy fewer rounds.
*edit- quick explanation for those of you who have no idea what a swiss is. Instead of a round robin where everyone more or less plays everyone, a swiss will have a point system: 1 for a win, 0 for a loss. You always play the person closest to you in points, unless you have already played them, in which case then you play the next closest.
This system is great for letting everyone play (no eliminations) and yet you still have a speedy way of finding out a winner (winners keep playing winners until there is only one left) while everyone else has fun seeing where they fit in the leaderboard. This system is popular in chess tourneys.

I was just trying to do something different to be honest. I will do it over less rounds then. I will look into it more.
Re: Dazza's Swiss Tourney - Conquer 500 (1/16)
