Stick Empires Tournament Rule Set

Matches best of three, grand finales three of five, and double elimination

This means if you lose your first match, you must win the next 2. If you lose the best of 3, if you're still now out yet. However, another best of three loss and it's game over.

Banned map list: Castle and Grass Hills.

For specific rules, we'll be using stage striking with modified DSR, gentleman's clause, and #Freeentropy

First stage is always neutral; this is a medium sized stage. The starting stage list includes desert, forest, gates, and ice lands.

Stage Striking: this is different after each game. The first game is as follows: the player with the highest elo strikes a stage, before the next player strikes 2 stages. The leftover stage is then played on for game 1. After game 1, the winner strikes 3 stages before the loser picks a stage. If it's a best of 5 set, only 2 stages can be striked. The loser from game 1 then picks the stage. This repeats until the set is complete.

Empire Switching: you can switch empires, but not until after the first game, which must be the empire you signed up with. After the loser of game 1 picks the stage, the winner is allowed to switch empires (and must announce he is doing so) before the loser can announce he is switching empires.

Modified Dave's Stupid Rule (DSR): This means you can't counter pick a stage you beat your opponent at, but can pick a stage you have previously been defeated on in the set, as long as he didn't strike it.

Pausing: This is against the rules unless specifically agreed upon by both players that won't last more than 5 minutes, unless in case of emergency.

Time Limits: Each game will only last a maximum of 15 minutes, if it lasts longer, the player holding the tower will be declared the victor.

Remember to post your replays

You're responsible for keeping the thread for your matches with your winnings. No tabs on your victories? I can only assume you lost. You must save them. If you're a free player, you MUST copy and save them in a document or a thread started in a new tab. No excuses.


For any custom rules you want to agree to with your opponent, make sure the Tournament Organizer (Myself, WyzDM, IHATETHISNAME) knows of it!
If it's between you guys, it will be accommodated, but we must know about it to prevent any debates. Everything else stands; do what it takes to win.

SO, I've been in discussion with some clan members, and I'd like to request that this is run one week earlier. The reason is, school hasn't started for some of us (e.g. Quickkicks, Froce) and that we'll have much more time to play in the tourney. Along with that, Feb 1 is on a Friday for most people, which isn't always the best time to be playing SE. Just a thought.

If it's possible, please run it one week earlier. My personally preference would be 3-8 days from now.

EDIT: Is this a live tourney?

February 1st is a Saturday, for everyone.

Also, there is no "both", random is accepted.

Quote from _Ai_
I agree. You should mention the timezone.

If the exact time of this was know, I would post it, and February first, is a Saturday, doesn't matter on your time zone.

Oh, and, is it a live tourney? And anyway, like I said, if run earlier, it'd benefit some people so if you can it's possible (What do you need so many weeks for?), but it's not a big problem.

Estimated time the tourney will take?

And could you clarify what "#Freeentropy" and "you can't counter pick a stage you beat your opponent at" please? I don't really understand those.
