Spring Training

To celebrate we will have a Cactus or Grapefruit league or our own, the Fairdice league. Come visit the Wizard of Oz; the man who coined the phrase, "Deja vu, all over again."; and all the other colorful characters who grace our map.
Looking for 32+ players (32, 36, 40, need a multiple of 4). Reserves will be accepted.
We will play a round robin type of game. Six four person games each. (random.org
Top four people advance to a three game final. Scores reset for the final.
[spoiler=Tiebreaker]#1: Who did the best overall in games you both played
#2: If you played no games together or were tied, then who was ahead at the end of round 3, then round 5, then round 2, then round 4, then round 1
#3: have random .org generate a number between 3 and 12. Take the total number of non vowel letters/symbols/characters in your player name and whoever is closest[/spoiler]
Games will be issued at a rate of one per week. I am going to have to call this one premium only. I can see the game load hit four easily if people don't play quickly.
And of course we will play on the Baseball map, under baseball conditions. Sunny, Esq., Chained. Each game will be 4 persons.
[spoiler=Points]6 points for a win
3 points for second
1 point for third[/spoiler]
Games are to be picked up within twenty-four hours. (If you have a sitter please tell them that they are allowed to accept tournament games.) Failure to pick up game will result in your elimination. [spoiler=Exceptions to this]As always, if you suspect there might be a problem, tell me, and in most cases things can be worked out. I am very willing to work around real life if you tell me. I have held games, sent second invites, etc., when I know. Just a short note that says RL has me tied up until Thursday is sufficient. PM, wall, text message, carrier pigeon, something. Just let me know.[/spoiler]
