Terminator settings, opinions needed.

[BrotherWolf]

I'm thinking of running a terminator tournament but one where preferably each map has a number of players terminating others rather than one player simply running through everyone else. So given that, what settings do you think would give this result? A large map with 4-5 players or a small map with 7-8 players. Would you go Flat or Escalating? Adjacent, Chained or Unlimited? etc

I know there is always the chance one player will terminate everyone else but what settings would make this situation less likely?

Thanks in advance for your input.

Luxembourg, unlimited, 8 players, escalating

Classic shapes, terminator, sequential, 7+, unlimited, sunny, and casual. Lots of people are getting training on this setup, and I bet you would have a lot of entrants and some real competition and few one take all games.
