Read through the rules below and sign-up with your home-field settings included please. Good luck all...football is back!!!

RULES
This is a 1 vs. 1 singles tournament that will follow the NFL football season. Slow sign-ups so we are running with 22 teams. Tournament is open to freebies and premium players, I just ask that freebies keep pace with play … 5 maps each week.

PRIZES
Super Bowl champ: 1200 CC credits --- ViperOverLord
Super Bowl runner-up: 600 CC credits --- *Pixar*
Highest score differential regular season: 300 credits --- *Pixar*

GAME PLAY

All games are SEQUENTIAL and NO POLY ... other than that all settings are accepted…and all maps are in play.
A 20-round cap will be in place for all maps.

Games are scored based on a five-map showdown.
*First quarter — a Geographic map with some relation to the home city.
*Second quarter — a Geographic map with some relation to the home city.
Third quarter — home-field settings chosen by player
Fourth quarter — home-field settings chosen by player
*Special teams — random map

* These maps will be escalating, chained, sunny

SCORING
A scoring formula (see below) will reward players for quick victories. Note: the special teams map has its own scoring system.

Total points will be used to determine the official winner — it will be possible for a team to win just 2 of the 5 maps and still come out in front. Although winning 3 of 5 maps will often land you a victory.

• In the case of overtime...each team will face off on a random map.
A win in 12 rounds or less gives you the winning points…if the overtime map goes 13+ rounds then that game will end in a tie. (ties not allowed in playoffs, of course).
(Win in 7 or less rounds for a winning TD…win in 8-12 rounds to get a winning FG)

SEASON
A hybrid schedule is being created…17 games in the regular season…every team has a bye week at some point. The playoffs will have each Division winner earning first-round byes. The next four best records in each conference will earn wildcard spots. A total of 6 playoff teams in each conference.
The winner of the Super Bowl will be declared the winning team for this tournament.

Scoring Example:
DENVER 14 7 0 9 — 30
KANSAS CITY 3 3 6 7 — 19
1st quarter
• Denver wins in 6 rounds
2nd quarter
• Denver wins in 13 rounds
3rd quarter
• Kansas City wins in 11 rounds
4th quarter
• Kansas City wins in 17 rounds
• Denver FG

*Denver wins special teams map in 13 rounds, so gets 1 FG (credited in the 4th Q).

• A scoreboard section will update scores throughout each week, while standings will be updated at the end of each week.

SIGN-UPS
Check the list below for an open team. Be sure to include your settings for each player (map, cards, forts, fog, trench?)
If you did not designate a home map, I used what you had last time we held this tourney. Feel free to change it before the season starts.

I'm afraid the tourney community may have shrunk in my time away.
Regardless we are halfway to full on this NFL tourney. 16 slots still open.

Sign up and let's have some fun, flex

The Ravens were open, so you are good.
If you go to the bottom of the post there are links for AFC teams and for NFC teams.

I can't figure out how to code them, so the images show up automatically ... so links for now.

Anyone with ideas on what code I need to just show the images outright?

I'm going to give sign-ups through the weekend. If we get close to full I'll stick with it.
If we remain stagnant I'll consider creating hybrid divisions and we'll go with whoever signs up.

In please - can I get the Eagles - with my map USA 2.1, fog, chained, trench. I was an Eagles season-ticket holder for 16 years, no longer though, got a little too expensive finally. If I can't have them guess I'll take the Chargers.

Week 1 games have been sent out :)
Good luck everyone.

Note: A slight change to the rules to account for a 22-team league.
Basically 12 teams will make the playoffs.
