The format will be 5 player nuclear, with 25 players, divided into 5 groups. Players will be randomly placed into the first round groups.
Each group gets 5 maps to start in first round (sorry, premium players only). If one player gets 3, 4, or 5 wins, they move on. If one player wins 2, and three others win only 1, the winner of 2 moves on. If two players are tied at 2 wins each, then only they play a 1v1 tie breaker to see who moves on. If all tied at 1 each, one more game in played between all, with the winner moving on.
The second (final) round will be the same format. But if there is a tie breaker for 2 players, it will be best of 3 games.
All games will be Automatic, Sequential, Nuclear, Chained, Fog, 30 Round Limit.
The maps will be USA, Soviet Union, Duck and Cover, Berlin 1961, and the Beta Map Cuban Missile Crisis*. The tie breaker game will be Arms Race.
Once 25 players are in, I'd like to add up to 3 reserves and get started ASAP. Players will have 48hrs to join or will be replaced promptly with the reserves.
*Please note: The Cuban Missile Crisis map is a beta map and may have a couple bugs.
