[wolfman24]

Internet Gaming Bash of the Year

Date of the contest:
Will run from 07/01/2014 – 08/05/2014

Participation:
Will be open to the entire website that is participating.

Games:
There will be as many games per week as there are teams. (i.e., 5 teams will result in 5 games per week. The maximum amount of games possible for a given week will be limited to 10).

Game Selection:
Each website will pick their game to be submitted for the play week. Remember, this is a 5-week tourney. Games will be Mame-only. Games can not be reused after selected. The Sites will also have to play game submissions from each site each week as well

Scoring System:
Each website will submit their 5 highest scores per game. Each score will count as a rank. The scores will be tallied each week and after all 5 weeks are up, the lowest score will be crowned the Internet’s greatest gaming team. If your team has less then 5 submissions the missing subs will be in last place

An example of this would be:
Team 1 rank
Score 1 1
Score 2 5
Score 3 10
Score 4 20
Score 5 30
Total Points 66

[wolfman24]

up to 34 players and 4 websites

[wolfman24]

to make scoring easier to understand
I am planning on adding a limit to games per week to 3 and do a rotation

Week One Scenario:

Site A has 20 participants and picked Galaga as their selection.

Site B has 50 participants and picked Bosconian as their selection.

Site C has 30 participants and picked Zoo Keeper as their selection.

Each team now must qualify with five scores on each of the above games. It does not matter how many player scores a site submits on each game as only the top five scores for each site qualify. These top five qualifying scores are now ranked against the other sites top five qualifying scores. Team score is based on rank tally with the lowest score tally winning the round.

Should a team fail to submit five scores on each game, missing submissions will automatically receive last place rank. In the above scenario, last place rank with three teams would be 15.

At the end of week one the standings might look like this for Galaga:

Galaga:

1 point - 2,000,000 - submission 1 site a
2 points - 1,800,000 - sub 1 site c
3 points - 1,700,000 - sub 2 site a
4 points - 1,600,000 - sub 3 site a
5 points - 1,500,000 - sub 4 site a
6 points - 600,000 - sub 5 site a
7 points - 550,000 - sub 2 site c
8 points - 500,000 - sub 3 site c
9 points - 450,000 - sub 1 site b
10 points - 400,000 - sub 4 site c
11 points - 350,000 - sub 5 site c
12 points - 300,000 - sub 2 site b
13 points - 250,000 - sub 3 site b
14 points - 200,000 - sub 4 site b
15 points- 150,000 - sub 5 site b

Site A received points for 1st place, 3, 4, 5 and 6th place for a total of 19 points.

Site B received points for 9th place, 12, 13, 14 and 15th place for a total of 63 points.

Site C received points for 2nd place, 7, 8, 10 and 11th place for a total of 38 points.

Overall team scores for Galaga:

Site A - 19
Site C - 38
Site B - 63

Now repeat the above for Bosconian and Zoo Keeper to obtain the total week scores for each team.

Continue on to week two and repeat.

[Chaos Phoenixma]

Doesn't Bosconian have infinite milking crap?

I know odds are it wouldn't be picked, but you would need to be aware of stuff like that.

[wolfman24]

yeah i believe it does

[wolfman24]

updated list up to 75 players and 5 teams looking forward to a shootemup team

[ED-057]

so where is the shmups.system11 team? I want to join.

BTW, will there be any score verification?

Contest revisions:


Due to heavier than anticipated interest and numerous players bringing up many concerns, the following is a list of changes for this contest. While we appreciate that some players may or may not agree to everything here, we think these changes will make for a better overall tournament that the majority of players will enjoy. Due to the date at hand, there will be no further changes to this contest.

1. - Selected games will be played for the entire five week period



2. - Each team will choose four games – send your game selections to Wolf no later than June 30th. Wolf will inform all sites of game selections upon receipt of selections. Should duplicate game selections be received, the team with the highest number of registered players will yield to the team with the smaller number of players. The smaller team will select another game. Wolf will advise of all details once final list of games have been posted. Once games are selected and posted by Wolf, players not already registered on a site are no longer eligible to play. Existing site members may join (eliminates ringers). Games will be played with default dip switches


3. - Auto fire is not allowed


4. - Adjudication – we all know or know of each other generally speaking so there should be no need for this. Players are encouraged to save their INPs for all game play. Disputes (if any) will be handled on a case by case basis and reviewed by all sites.


5. - Submissions: players should submit their scores via this form – as we want to maintain as live a scoreboard as possible, please submit early and often. Please do not hold on to score submissions.I need to know if there is going to be a shootemup system team to make the form for them



6. - All games must be completed and submissions received no later than 11:59PM Eastern Standard Time on August 5th. Any scores submitted after this time will not be valid. Again, submit early and often.


Looking forward to an awesome tournament!

Hey wolfman; is this a shmup specific tournament? If not, I'd best put this main organisational thread in Off Topic, and then if there's weekly high-score boards, they can obviously go in our Hi Scores sub-forum.

3. - Auto fire is not allowed
