Yah no one hesitate there are tons of people fairly new to the game already in the tourney. Also it's double elimination, so you'll get to play at least two games.

I almost forgot I have an extra copy of The Cult expansion that I got from Spielbox, so I'll be giving that out to the top U.S. finisher as a prize (it's a handful of tiles that can be integrated into the base game; you can get the rules to it on BGG and elsewhere).

Imagine how popular this game will be when it gets GC support w/ achievements! You can probably run a 64 person tourney! :D

don't worry about it you guys are in. when i randomize the seeds we can also randomize byes if there's not a perfect number.

just everyone who signed up for the tournament please subscribe to this thread

deadline for sign-ups is 9 pm est tomorrow then i'll post the bracket

On timing: Hopefully it can be chill with people taking each match at their leisure. But I'd like each round to take no more than a week. So for example, Round 1 deadline will be this Sunday by 9 PM EST, and will be the same for each round thereafter (of course, people can finish quicker as long as the matchups are set). This may at times require coordinating a specific time to hammer the game out (some may prefer this anyway), just fyi.
 
Well, since I'm usually with my iPhone all the time, only time that I'm not able to play is when I'm sleeping so no problem there!

I was just starting to get worried the games would have like a 1 or 2 hour window, 1 week sounds like a ridiculous amount of time, no worries now!

I might do it so it's two rounds a week, just so this doesn't take too long and people don't get complacent.

But the first deadline will definitely be this Sunday.

Tournament Rules

-Tournament is double elimination, meaning you play until you lose in two rounds. So don't leave after you lose your first game.

-Each round consists of one 2P game against your opponent. The bracket can be found here: http://challonge.com/neogafcarc (will be finalized by 10 PM EST tonight, will post image here as well).

-Winner post scores in the following format: [Winner & Score] - [Loser & Score]
AstroLad 170 - AirBrian 37
Feel free to post screenshots or anything of note as well of course.

-Deadline for the first round ("Preliminaries" on the bracket) is Sunday September 19 at 5 PM EST. People with unplayed games will be booted from the tournament.

-Deadline for the next round ("1st Round" on the bracket) will be Wednesday September 22 at 9 PM EST.

-Deadlines for successive rounds will continue on the Sunday/Wednesday schedule.

-If you don't already have your opponent on your list, PM him your email. Either person can send the game invite, and once the game has started if there are duplicate invites, the other can just be rejected.

-Provided we make it all the way through to the finals, winner receives a set of tiles for Carcassonne: The Cult, a small expansion to the base (physical) game.

Ah glad you're here. You won me by 3 points last time we played.

Would love to have my revenge :3
He beat me by three points too. :(

Astro, what happens if your opponent bails? Both get booted.

Also, should we provide screenshots of the game when it's over?

Just to be clear, the tournament matchups aren't final yet. People can still sign up until 9 est tonight, at which point I'll randomize the seedings and then the matchups will be made. Not everyone will have a first-round match either since there has to be a qualifying round first b/c we'll have less than 32.

Only way I'm aware of people getting "booted" is someone deleting a game. If that happens, then the remaining player gets a 100-0 win and the deleter is out of the tourney. Never seen anything analagous to a "disconnect" except when people were upgrading their phones, but even that got sorted.

I have to post how to report scores too. Check the updated rules.
