During the seeding rounds all contestants will play the same game (1 round = 1 week). # submitting your hi-score: this contest is a multi-website contest. There is a thread of our contest at each of those websites. We wanted to create a contest which is very easy to join. Therefore each player can submit his of her score on the website of their choice: gameex.info, retrouprising.com, shmups.system11.org, atariage.com and retrogamer.net Just post a screenshot of your score at the forum of your choice or play your game at RetroUprising. GameEx is the place where the tournament standings and additional info will be made public !! # point scoring system: your score and your team mate score gets added together. The TOTAL team hi-score determines the team rank. The amount of contestants will determine how many points you will get. With 26 teams the no. 1 ranked team gets 26 points etc... Comparing all the team scores after 3 rounds of seeding will rank each team for the double elimination tournament. Only the top 24 ranked teams will qualify for the double elimination tournament !! Double Elimination tournament > each team begins in the winners bracket, but with one loss, goes into a losers bracket, where they will have to play their way back. All competitors will have the oppurtunity to play at least twice during the elimination phase. # Games [please play at default settings] Week 1 (seeding round 1) = Salamander (version D) > romset = salamand Week 2 (seeding round 2) = Nemesis > romset = nemesis Week 3 (seeding round 3) = Flying Shark (World) > romset = fshark Week 4, 5, 6 etc.: the double elimination tournament will start in week 4. The 8 highest seeded teams will receive a bye for week 4. After the seeding rounds we will publish the game each team has to play each round. This depends on your rank after the seeding rounds and whether or not staying in the winners bracket or having to fight (...eh play) your way back in the loser's bracket.
