This thread will be used for decisions as necessary as the tournament continues; the OP will be updated with team and schedule information as soon as that information is finalized. Me, DYA, and Sificon are hosting this tournament.

For the first round, players will be randomly assigned into 4 groups of 4 for each generation (×7), with the top 8 teams with the most wins collected proceeding. The seeding tiebreak will be the highest-ranking points (6 points for sole 1st, 4 points for sole 2nd, and 2 points for sole 3rd, shared between spots if necessary) within the group, just like WCoP and then randomization as the secondary tiebreak. The qualifying rounds and round 2 matches will be full 7 vs 7 man matchups. RBY OU will be first-to-2-wins, (best of 3 excluding ties), while the rest will be first-to-1-win.

In the event of a playoffs tiebreaker, captains of both teams will rank their preferred tiers from #1-#3. Points will be assigned to the ranks in the following way: #1 — 1000, #2 — 100, #3 — 10. The point values are arbitrary but represent the relationship of 1st choice > 2nd choice › 3rd choice when summed. The 3 tiers with the highest number of points will be selected for the tiebreaker set and managers will then choose any 3 unique players from each of their rosters to play in the determined tier spots. If there's a tie, the 3rd tier will be decided randomly between the two.

Since US Midwest doesn't have a team this year, we are splitting it between the other regions.


  1. "West North Central" states (North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri) to US West.
  2. "East North Central" states (Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio) to US Northeast.

Qualifier Format
The 6 new teams (Afrabs, India, Mexico, Peru, US West and Chile) will be paired randomly between them. The three that win will then play against the 3 relegated teams from last year (US South, Latin America and Asia). Since US South finished 14th, it will pick one of the three and Latin America as 15th will choose between the last two and Asia will play the against the remaining one.

RE: US Northeast manager

emma is the new manager of US Northeast due to the previous manager not showing signs of activity until really close to the deadline.
