RULES

This is a Round based Tournament where each Round needs to complete before we commence a new Round of Games.

SURVIVAL PHASE

Each Round each player will play 3 Games against the same opponent.

Map: Baltic Crusades
Settings: Auto, Sequential, Flat Rate, Chained, Foggy, Trench.

The SOLE OBJECT of the SURVIVAL PHASE is to reach the KO stages. When we get to the KO Phase, POINTS become meaningless! Up to that Phase, Points accumulation will only get you BYE's to get closer to the KO's! But these BYE's become CRUCIAL. Because players will FALL while you automatically advance to the next Round!

The SURVIVAL PHASE continues until ONLY 32 Players....or less SURVIVE!

SCORING
- Win 3-0 = 2 Points.
- Win 2-1 = 1 Point.
- Lose 1-2 = Zero Points, but.......You SURVIVE to progress to the next Round.
- Lose 0-3 = TOURNAMENT ELIMINATION regardless of your points total.

BYES
- For every 40 Players set to participate in a SURVIVAL ROUND, The Tournament Leader will recieve a BYE in the following Round (excluding Rd 1 Obv).
- If 300 Players progress to Rd 2, there will be 7 BYE's up for Grabs. If only 250 make it, then only 6 BYE's will be up for Grabs.
- You cannot acculumate any points in a Round where you are lucky enough to have a BYE.

ODD MAN BYE
- If this leaves an ODD number of players. An additional BYE is added........The ODD MAN BYE.
- Meaning the next highest player on the Scoreboard also gets a BYE.
- This BYE is not certain, if a player is KICKED, the ODD-MAN is brought back into compete in the Round.

TIE-BREAKERS:
1. Points
2. Who had most Points in the Previous Round, then in every Previous Round back to Rd 1.
3. Who finished fastest in the Previous Round.
4. Who finished fastest in the Previous Round before that.
***. Players on a BYE in the previous Round would lose a Tie-Breaker if it goes to Finish Times in Previous Rounds.

ROUND DRAWS:
To determine each players opponents in each Round, After the Players on a BYE have been removed, It will be a RANDOM DRAW between the 'Top Half' and 'Bottom Half' of the remaining players on the Leaderboard.
In Round 1, the Highest Ranks will be in the TOP HALF of the Scoreboard for Draw Purposes.

KNOCKOUT PHASE

- When there are only only 32 SURVIVORS remaining, points are DISCARDED and............we enter the KO PHASE of the Tourney!
- If we move to the KO phase with less than 32 Players, Points will continue to decide who get's Byes in the following Round.
- Points accumulation will be 1 Point for a 1 Match Victory (3-2, 4-3, etc) and 2 Poins for a larger victory (4-1 or 5-0, 5-2 or 6-1 or 7-0, etc)

Baltics SS: Rd 6 Review / Rd 7 Preview

You will need to have the Tournaments 'LIVE' Scoreboards open to follow the Commentary:

Round 6 REVIEW

I can honestly say, Round 6 was ABSOLUTE CARNAGE!

112 Players started the Round, The 2 Leaders safely made it in to Round 7 with a Bye. The other 110 Players took to the field of battle spread across 55 Match Ups. A HUGE 24 of those Match Ups led to a Player being ELIMINATED! That was 44% of all Match Ups leading to a Player heading for the Tournament Exit Door!

15 of those KO's were the 'TOP HALF' Player KO'ing a Player from the 'BOTTOM HALF' of the Scoreboard. 9 was the player from the 'BOTTOM HALF' of the Scoreboard USURPING a Player who probably thought they had a real chance of winning this Tournament! But alas, that was not to be!

Highest Rank to be ELIMINATED that Round was Frox333, who with a Pre-Tournament Rank of 2732 was the 10th Highest Ranked Player to enter the Tournament....

j1mathman 2358 39thSeed (5 Points) 3 V 0 Frox333 2732 10thSeed (6 Points)
Frox333 was desperately unlucky here. It was a re-draw and he came up against the Guy who can count and Play RISK all at the same time, j1mathman. Not an ideal re-draw to say the least! Frox333 only got 1 start from the 3 Games. But it was a disaster, he failed to card in that one! He followed that up with failing to card in his 3rd turn also. A start like that, he was 1 down and had to come back in 1 of the other 2 Games where he started 2nd. He was unable to! So it's j1mathman who marches on into Round 7 and Frox333 who is left hopping mad.........................................

Players who was Flying High in the Tournament, but CRASHED and BURNED in Round 6 were Frox333 (see above), *Pixar* (won't be making any Movies about this Tournament) & Ulm. These Players were all on 6 Points at the start of Round 6. EVEN NOW, that points total would have been enough to see them comfortably in the TOP HALF of the Round 7 Draw. But alas, all 3 were on the wrong end of a WHITE WASH in Round 6 and are PUMPED OUT the Tourney!

The other Players who were KO'd that Round, and there are loads of them, are below:

ROUND 7 PREVIEW

So from 'The 300' who started this Tournament, we have only 88 Remaining! This is getting serious now because 1 of those 88 Players will pick up the HUGE 1st PRIZE of a YEARS PREMIUM on CC!

The 2 Players who have the best chance of winning that are the 2 Players sitting proudly at the top of the Leaderboard! And it's the SHOCK TROOPS who are leading the way! Neither of these Players were particularly fancied to take this Tournament Down. But, Yeti Discovered (126th Seed) & booger20 (105th Seed) are the only players who have made it to DOUBLE DIGITS so far! Both are the CLEAR LEADERS on 10 Points! With 88 Players still competing, it means 2 BYES for this Round. Both these Players progress safely into Round 8!

For the other 86 Survivors, we compete across 43 Match Ups. We need to get down to 32 Players before we progress to the KO Rounds so undoubtedly there are going to be a few more SURVIVOR ROUNDS after this one. The only Question is, who will live long enough to see them..........

'TOP HALF' Players are the Players who have amassed 6-9 Points, with the top 3 Players on 5 Points joining them.

'BOTTOM HALF' Players are those on 0-5 Points.

Best Tie of the Round, has got to be...........

Gods dad R=3210 2ndSeed 0 V 0 Keefie R=2320 45th Seed 5530 Combined Rank
Gods dad undoubtedly entered this Tournament because of the HUGE Prize Pool. Keefie is a Warrior who plays ANY PLAYER, ANY MAP, SIMPLE SETTINGS just for the fun of competing. Gods dad is sitting 3rd on the Scoreboard on 9 Points. Keefie is struggling BIG TIME! in 6 Rounds of SURVIVOR SERIES RISK he has only managed to accunulate 3 Points. But pre-tournament these players had a COMBINED RANK of 5530 so Keefie has the skills required to send Gods dad to the rails here. Then again, could Gods dad be the player that puts Keefie out his misery? Only time will tell!

Other Ties to look out for are the 2 involving the Tournament Organisers. Each carries a bounty on their heads for the player who manages to eliminate them. Shoop76 (7 Points) and Craig25 (6 Points) are both in the TOP HALF of the Draw. But which BOTTOM HALF Player gets the opportunity to get their Tournament back on track and also pick up a cool 100 Counqer Credit Bounty:

shoop76 R=3010 4th Seed The Goat 0 V 0 SneakySheep R=1364 261st Seed

Craig25 R=2453 24th Seed Lex Fu*king Luthor 0 V 0 wooooood R=2002 108th Seed

And the ULTIMATE SURVIVOR is still 177th Seed maui. In 6 Rounds he has not managed to win 1 single Match Up and is stranded on the bottom of the Table on ZERO Points. But on the ther side of the coin, NOBODY can put this Guy Down! So, who is the 'TOP HALF' Player who is probably going to win this Match Up 2-1?:

Lobstrosity R=2402 30th Seed 0 V 0 maui R=1732 177th Seed

Okay Troops, Games will be set up much later today. In the mean time, head over to the 'LIVE' Scoreboards to see your position on the Scoreboard Tab and then to see who you are coming up against this round on the Results Tab:

GOOD LUCK!
