    Grab a Snack!
EVERYBODY WITH 1 OPEN SLOT IS WELCOME
(2 slots for finals)


This tournament is inspired by a late evening dreaming when I was too lazy to get out from bed and get a midnight snack. Though my stomach didn't get fed then my mind got to do a lot of thinking how I could turn a journey after a midnight snack into a funny little tournament.

This tournament will be a lot like one of my previous tournament (Literature Prize), consisting of 7 rounds (steps) and with each step some of you will get a step closer to be successful in the Ultimate Road to Midnight Snack.

All games are 4-6 player Standard, Sequential, Casual (except Step 6: 2-player games).
All games are made according to rank and everybody will play only 1 game per round (except finals).


    Step 1. Get out!
In your first step you must be clever like a fox and quiet like a cat. You are laying in your bed, next to your husband/wife/gf/bf/cat/dog/etc. You have to sneak out from bed without waking the person (or animal) next to you!
Total games/Players: 6 games with 6 per game
Map: 8 Thoughts (well, you have a thought, time to start executing it)
Cards, Fortifications, FoW: Escalating, Chained, Foggy
First person eliminated in each game drops out from the tournament

    Step 2. Watch out!
You have successfully got out of bed but... CAREFUL! There’s something on the floor and it’s close... Did you step on it and woke everybody or not?
Total games/Players: 6 games with 5 per game
Map: Poker Club (was it a pack of cards?)
Cards, Fortifications, FoW: Flat Rate, Unlimited, Foggy
First person eliminated in each game drops out from the tournament

    Step 3. Slooowly!
You’re out of bed and you didn’t step on the first thing but as you look around... What kind of pig lives in here??? There are all kind of possible things on the floor and disturbing your quiet movement in the room. Slowly now and hopefully you will reach the squeaking door at the other side of the room.
Total games/Players: 4 games with 6 per game
Map: Doodle Earth (for some reason your room reminds a little doodled earth)
Cards, Fortifications, FoW: No Cards, Adjacent, Foggy
First person eliminated in each game drops out from the tournament

    Step 4. Squuuuuuueak!
Congrats, you’ve reached the door that makes horrible noises when not opened properly. And guess what – it’s closed of course. Open it carefully or your midnight journey is over!
Total games/Players: 5 games with 4 per game
Map: Madness (it's a madhouse, madhouse I say!!)
Cards, Fortifications, FoW: Escalating, Unlimited, Sunny
First person eliminated in each game drops out from the tournament

    Step 5. MINE FIELD AHEAD!
Did you really think that the hard part is over? *lol* Mine field is waiting for you – squeaking floor boards in the hall. Step on the right boards and you are away from danger. Make a wrong move and you are out.
Total games/Players: 3 games with 5 per game
Map: Waterloo (I'm ready to change it if there's something closer to mines in other map)
Cards, Fortifications, FoW: Escalating, Chained, Foggy
First person eliminated in each game drops out from the tournament

    Step 6. Fridge!!!
Congrats, you’ve reached the fridge and you can have your deserved snack. Wait, what? No, you haven’t won the tournament yet. Now the hardest part will begin. You will fight for the right for a safe journey back. Only 6 of you will advance to final games.
Total games/Players: 6 games with 2 per game
Map: Alexander's Empire (just a good 2-player map :P)
Cards, Fortifications, FoW: No Cards, Chained, Sunny
Winner of each game advances to finals

    Step 7. Bed waits you back!
Remaining 6 players will start getting back to bed and only one of you will make it back.
Total games/Players: 6 games with 6 per game (everybody plays 6 games, 2 at a time)
Map: each finalist picks their own map
Cards, Fortifications, FoW: each finalist picks their own settings
Person with highest score (scoring below) wins the tournament.

    Scoring
Winner: 10 points
2nd place: 8 points
3rd place: 6 points
4th place: 3 points
5th place: 2 points
6th place: 1 point
+1 extra point for winning on home settings


    Notes
    • I'm your Goddess ( :lol: ) and what I say, goes in this tournament. If I feel that something needs changing then I have the right to do if it's fair to everybody and is in the benefit of the tournament.
    • Signing up to the tournament counts only when posted to this thread.
    • Foe List is ignored. If you wish to play in my tournament then you have to play with anybody who stand in your way.
    • If you wish to drop out from the tournament then be polite - let me know about it. Don’t just deadbeat.
    • If you need more time to joining games then let me know. I’m sure we can work out something.
    • I know that my explaining skills aren't top-notch so if there's something confusing about the tournament then please use this thread so others would also see the answer.
    • Games that go longer than 50 rounds, will not count in the tournament and will be replaced with a game that has all the same settings, except cards will be changed to escalating
    • With any problems and questions, turn to me either by PM or posting to this thread.
    • Notification list! If you wish to get a message when I launch a new tournament (I'm letting people know ~48 hours after I've launched the tournament) then please let me know about it - post about it to this thread or send me a private message. If you deadbeat in my tournament then I will automatically remove you from the list.

I'm totally down... as for Step 5, why not something like World War II like Fox Hunt or Eastern / Western Europe which ever is a bit larger. I like those maps a lot, but no one uses them for tourneys, although Waterloo is a very good map.

BTW, very creative tourney and I like your Map pics. =D>
