Everyone in your division is playing for spots in the next round against everyone, there is no " X vs. Y" thing.

No it's not brackets and it's combo scoring like it has been every tourney.

Everyone is against everyone. Everyone is fighting for a spot in the next round. Like Musical chairs, but without the faffing around.

It's being run like AJ's Halloween tournament, go check that thread if you want an idea. But his is Raw scoring (max combo not considered) while the official is going to be combo scoring.

You get eliminated because you are the worst in the division, not because you couldn't beat a certain individual on a song.

**TC_Halogen** · 11-15-2011, 06:20 PM

For those of you new to this, it's a gauntlet tournament. Everyone in your particular division is playing their own tournament (within the main hosted event, being the 6th Official Tournament), and everyone within the division is playing against each other, free for all. That's how a good majority of FFR's tournaments are run - you have the hosted event, sub-divided into divisions and all of those players play in their own tournament to determine the winner of that "group".

Just might be a good thing to clarify, even though a good majority of the players are familiar with how things are run.

I hate that I have to work tonight, *keeps looking at the countdown* 4 Hrs & 37 min...

**Arbliterator** · 11-15-2011, 06:28 PM

Why does it say I'm not placed anymore?

Emithith · 11-15-2011, 06:28 PM

SM Judge 7 isn't gonna help. D

**Arbliterator** · 11-15-2011, 06:30 PM

Errr I noticed my brother isn't placed anymore either, why is that?

justin_ator · 11-15-2011, 06:33 PM

Same computer? They probably assumed you signed up with an alt.

**wildfireskunk** · 11-15-2011, 06:33 PM

Suggestion - In the main post FAQ, might be worth putting the expected range of difficulties each division will be facing for easy reference. It's been mentioned in the thread already, just a pain to find.

Also, D2 is Star Wars, amarite?

Different computers under the same IP address. Also he just started playing recently again so he's skillboosting quite a bit.

Edited out, my mistake.

**psychoangel691** · 11-15-2011, 06:42 PM

It's way more than just one shared IP. Next time PM me instead of running around posting on people's walls and in threads.

EDIT: I'm working on the IP checks. If you already know you share an IP with someone please message me with an explanation (this will save me some time later)

As most of you probably remember we had a massive sandbagging issue in the last tourney. I'm trying to prevent this from happening again best I can.

**TC_Halogen** · 11-15-2011, 06:52 PM

They'll be posted once the tournament starts, and will be visible on the dashboard.

**Zekramcross** · 11-15-2011, 06:53 PM

So, what is sandbagging?

**psychoangel691** · 11-15-2011, 06:56 PM

Sandbagging is when you show scores worse than you are actually capable of to be put into a lower division so you can win. We had a LOT of this last tournament.
