Lose Your Knighthood [TPA3]
Shoop76 is the winner whatever the final result of game 4 (which may go on for another few months!)


This is a Tournament Players Association Year 3 (TPA3) event, and is governed by its rules, audit policies, guidelines, and judgments which are detailed at http://www.conquerclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=89&t=175675.
All are welcome to join and participate in the association. You need do nothing more than join one or more of the TPA3 events that will be announced each Monday. Check back on the scoreboard to see how much money you are losing:

[spoiler=Background]From 2000 to 2008 Fred "the shred" Goodwin presided over the Royal Bank of Scotland's rapid rise to global prominence as the world's largest company by assets (£1.9 trillion), and fifth-largest bank by stock market value. In 2008 it was then forced into effective nationalisation with a loss totalling £24.1 billion, the largest annual loss in UK corporate history. The Queen stripped Fred Goodwin of his knighthood in 2012, something that had only previously been done to Robert Mugabe and Nicolae Ceausescu.[/spoiler]
OK, so how do you lose a knighthood?
Well, firstly you need to gain a knighthood.
To do this you have to become the boss of a bank.
Now you need to take over all the other banks - the "winner" will obviously not have the assets to maintain them so will then lose their knighthood!
[spoiler=gameplay]There will be 36 players. You must choose one of the 6 positions in any of the 6 banks listed below. If any bank is oversubscribed then you will be placed in any of the other banks.
Round 1 - 6 x 6-player terminator games on the map associated with the country of the bank (as listed below). Points will be allocated as 2 points per termination plus either 1 to 5 for the position in which you are terminated or 6 points if you are the survivor.
Round 2 - the 6 leaders of their points tables will play 6-player terminator games on maps of each country. Points will be as in Round 1.
In case of a dropout during a game, they will receive no points and those terminated will receive points from 2 to 5.
In the case of a points tie after Round 1 there will be a deciding game on the same map. In the case of a tie after Round 2 three deciding games will be played on Classic.
Map settings will be standard.[/spoiler]
