this will be a series of brackets. Each one you will take a random seed

you'll be scored on how you finish each. each bracket you will be scored only for your best finish. that means if you win the final for a bracket, you will only receive 4 points for that bracket. not the accumulation for each previous win in the same brakcet.
1st round loss = -1
1st round win = 0
2nd round win = 1
3rd round win = 2
FINALS win = 4

there will be 7 brackets total. i'll send 4 games at first. and then once all first round games for those 4 are complete, i'll send the next 3 first round games. it's possible you will have 7 games going at once. but you have to be really really good for that to happen. (or lucky :) ) so basically there will be 7 brackets running simultaneously, staggered by one round. but it really comes down to how fast players play as to when games will be created. i usually will create available matchups every night.
maps and settings
round 1, classic map, default settings
round 2, feudal war, default +flat rate +foggy
round 3, 13 colonies, default +no spoils
round 4, arms race, default +no spoils +foggy
round 5, seige, default +flat rate
round 6, imperium romanum, default +foggy +parachute
round 7, route 66, default +adjacent
(default just means settings that are preset before adjustments
how to win? after all 7 brackets are complete, the scores will be tallied, and the top 2 players will go headsup in a 7 game shootout with the 7 maps used for the brackets
each game will be worth 1 point. so if the top player has an 8 point advantage, then there will be no games needed. so the more points the top player has over the second place, the bigger the cushion he has.

when the dust settles, the player with the highest score will take the trophy.

i'll also pony up a free months premium for each bracket win. just to help keep things interesting.

i updated the scoreboard, the spoiler tabs are bugged with the new overhaul of the forum. which means you can't see the brackets. your guess is as good as mine when it comes time that they address it. i'm not going to update the brackets until it's fixed. i could remove the spoiler tabs and you could see them, but that's a lot of work if it's fixed tommorrow and i have to put it right back.

i updated the scores. and sent out the other 3 round 1 brackets. there are still 4 round 1 games active in the others, but they could drag on so i kicked off the next set to avoid useless prolongation

I updated the scores, I also posted the brackets under the scores because there's no telling when things will be fixed with the spoulers
