DKs Best of 2012 I - Flat Foggy
Maps: Shown in the individual Phase spoilers below.
Eligibility: To play in this tournament, you must be premium, (have a turns-taken record of 98% or better), at least 100 completed games, and be at least a PFC on sign-up.
I've had a record number of people who don't meet the 98% requirement ask to be in this tournament. At least a couple have made the argument that their low percentage comes from speeders and that it doesn't necessarily translate into poor attendance in 24-hour games. So, provisionally, let's skip the requirement and see how it goes.
Procedure: The first nine phases will consist of multiplayer Standard games. In each of these phases, only the first player eliminated from each game is eliminated from the tournament. All others will continue to the next phase. As soon as all games in a phase have had one player eliminated, I will begin the next phase with the survivors. Winning these games will not influence the course of the tournament; only that first elimination is significant.
[spoiler=special rule][*]If any game is won by either Map Victory Conditions or by Round Limit, and nobody has been killed yet, then the eliminee will be the player with the fewest troops at the end.[/spoiler]
Settings: All games will be Automatic, Sequential, Flat Rate, Chained, Foggy, No Trench, 50-Round limit, 24-hour turns.
In the Final phase, all remaining players will play simultaneously in nine multiplayer Terminator games. These games will be completed and winning them will count, as will the number of kills.
The maps to be used are shown in the Phase spoilers below.
[spoiler=Phase 1]

The finals will be different from the first nine phases.
[spoiler= Phase 10 - Finals]Phase 10: The Final shootout!
In the final round, the eight remaining players will face off simultaneously on all nine maps used in the tournament thus far. These games will be Terminator, and players will score 1 point for each kill and two extra points for winning a game. The player who scores the most points in the final phase will win the tournament.
In case of a tie, the following tiebreaking rules will be used
1. Total wins in the Final Shootout.
2. Total wins in the whole tournament.
3. Total kills in the Final Shootout.
4. Total kills in the whole tournament.
(in that order, obviously.)[/spoiler]
