18 people = 1 group of 18, 3 rounds, top 8 advance to the bracket

In 3 rounds we should have 4-5 people with 3-0, and then another 4-5 with 2-1. Hopefully that works out properly but at least everyone plays 3 games.

Group Round 1. Numbers were randomized by random.org

I thought this was seeded why must i play King purple first round?

Honestly if you lose to him you're likely to slide in 2-1 after groups as most of the worse people will probably be paired with you rounds 2/3

Basically: 3-0 assures you're in. 2-1 means you're most likely in (There may be a tiebreaker if there's 9 people who went 3-0 and/or 2-1.) 1-2 or 0-3 means you're out (But I'll still make games for 0-2 people so they can save face and try to have a win)

Edited 3/26/2014 23:38:01

ah so this is not my only game. Hooray!

HOORAY!

I just want to make a note - auto-join isn't available for these games, so please try to join them as soon as possible! If you don't join within a week, I may declare the game as a loss for you.

Statistics!


About Strat 1v1 - Strat 1v1 wasn't played this round, despite having the best average. If you look closely, though, Strat 1v1 is almost always one of the last templates to be eliminated, though. As a matter of fact, if the other person got the last strike*, Strat 1v1 may have been picked.

About the "8th or Worse" column - This counts the number of people that will never play that template. Because you eliminate templates from the bottom, you're guaranteed never to play your worst X templates, where X is the amount of strikes you have. (5 in one game matches, 4 in Best of 3). There are no best of 5's this time, so your order for 8th or below does not matter. Despite that, the Sum/Average takes the order of 8th-11th.

*The Last Strike - Despite the fact, that in Warlight, the first pick is most important, when striking stages, the last pick is the most important. This is because the person with the last strike has the final say on which template will be picked. An easy example...

(No, this isn't a real match.)
11 |Gambler | G, E, I, K, F, J, H, B, A, C, D |
14 | Widzisz | E, G, C, A, F, J, I, H, D, B, K |

We can ignore the bottom 9 because they'll just be eliminated in some order we don't care about. However; the person who gets the last pick gets the template they like best, while the other person is stuck with second best. (This can also happen in Bo3 but is less likely)

I lost to Wid

Noted; updates to the tournament can be found on the third post (Arun stole the second post!)

We can't actually start second round until the first finishes due to Swiss sorting; I've messaged marc2013 and 125ch209 to join their respective games within 72 hours :P

8/9 games are done, just waiting on nich vs. ACL Tears now.

8/9 pairs will have the same record but opposite strike positions.
1 pair will have differing records but opposite strike positions.
The person who gets last strike this round are the people who didn't have them last time.

Meh. nich/ACL are taking their sweet time. Technically I don't have to wait for them :P

For the purposes of next round I can actually pretend they both won. When the actual results happen then the one who lost ended up on the 0-1 vs. 1-0 match.
