I am hosting this Clan Tournament to welcome newly started clans and those will be primarly accepted, but if needed will be filled by any interested clan.

Format:
http://challonge.com/newcup
1.43 total games: 14 doubles, 14 triples, 14 quads
2. Each clan member can only participate in 15 games per clan war
3. Wars are to be played in 2 sets:
1st set only home games from higher seeded clan
2nd set only home games from lower seeded clan
4.The 43rd game will be chosen by lower seeded clan
5.Each map can only be used twice per clan per clan war but can only be used once per game type (i.e. once for triples and once for quads)
6.There will be no freestyle, speed, manual deployments, beta maps, or nuclear spoils games allowed
Seeding would be done by each clan and then combined together.
Seed will remain the same for the whole tournament.
(If lower seed clan wins over higher he will not take higher clans seed)
Remember, all dates mentioned mean the games must be sent by the end of that day.
Quaterfinals:
Set 1: Saturday, March 5
Set 2: Saturday March 19
Semifinals:
Set 1: Saturday April 9
Set 2: Saturday April 23
Finals:
Set 1: Saturday May 14
Set 2: Saturday May 28
For each clan war, the higher seeded clan will setup a thread to run that particular match. PLEASE PUT "NewCup" (STANDS FOR Newcomers Cup) AT THE BEGINNING OF THE TITLE FOR EACH CLAN WAR.
In each clan challenge thread. A list of players participating for each clan should be kept up along with a running tally of how many games each player has played in. If someone feels a player has violated the number of games they are allowed to participate in, please bring it to my attention. If they are found in violation, the opposing team will get to pick any games from the last batch played equal to the number of games the went over the limit to restart without that player participating.

Looking to replace the AKA invitational.
It looks good, specially with the new entrants. I presume it's for those that wouldn't qualify for something like Chucks Conquer Cup.
Might want to look into WG then, I assume they'd be interested

." Wars are to be played in 2 sets:
1st set only home games from higher seeded clan

Kako ces ti odrediti poziciju klanova,ko je vise rangirani a koje nize rangirani?
"7.Clans have an option to veto 2 maps prior to game creation"
Ovo misim da nema veze-jer degradira onog koji odredjuje svoje home mape-to jos nigde niko nije odredjivao.

Great idea, good luck with it guys. A lot of new blood in the clans right now which is what is needed.

looking good but this veto thing is a bit silly and a waste of time say i send 1st set.
21 games.
i have 2 jamaica games. the other clan changes them. when they send me there set i will change there 2 best maps so in effect all you are really doing is changing it to.
19 home and 2 away games per set.
maybe change it a little bit up it to a 45 game challenge and give each clan 2 joker cards(for the whole tourney) were they can pass on a certain game but it still counts as a map use for the team that gave the games over.

Removed the veto part.
Everything other stays the same.
Lower seed still have a bit of advantage
by choosing the tie-breaking game.

wow! nice idea! I very like this idea. lower seeded clan is already undrdog due to their schedula (have to play vs top clans), so at least that rule would equalize strength between that 2 clans.

only what its problem,its very hard to ranking new clans,because they almost dont have enough results,to give hem proper ranking.

It's a complete joke that we can't now enter this nor the Conqueror's Cup.
Not impressed.

Great work Benga,i think that these will be good competition, and with 16 clans,its will be even more chalenging.
Re: Newcomers Cup [9 so far, still open for more]

Very unlikely we will get 16, but wth we will try.

Have you ever heard of the wonders of the Private Messaging feature? Revolutionary I say.
More seriously if you can't get 16 clans we'd be fine with having a preliminary vs any clan, we want action!

yes, like GA7 say,if you dont have enough clans, we can play preliminary ,and 7 others can get bue to next round withouth play .
