    Wolfman and me (GimmeClassics) are going to be holding a high score tournament for Shoot Em Up fans starting next year !

    Please allow us to tell you something about our contest and how you can join us...

    Tag Team contest
    This competition is going to be a team contest. You can either sign up by yourself and get paired up or sign up with a team mate.
    Just leave a reply or send a PM to one of us when you want to join our competition !!
    We have a list of all players at the end of this post. It will be updated with every new entry.

     

    The games which will be part of this contest will remain a suprise for now .... wink.png

    Rules and additional info
    It's going to be a double elimination tournament with 3 rounds for seeding. All players will play the same game each round.
    Each round lasts a week.

    1. Rounds for seeding
    We'll have 3 rounds for seeding. So you'll be playing 3 games with your team mate and your score and your team mates score gets added together. The amount of contestants will determine how many points you will get. With 30 contestants the best team will get 30 points and last gets 1 point.
    Comparing all the team scores will rank each team for the double elimination tournament.

    2. Double elimination brackets
    After the seeding rounds it's going to be a double-elimination tournament. The highest ranked team plays the lowest ranked team, the second highest ranked team plays the second lowest ranked team and so on. When there are an odd number of teams in the tournament the highest seeds receive "byes".
    Each team begins in the winner’s bracket, but with one loss, goes into a loser’s bracket, where they will have to play their way back. All competitors will have the oppurtunity to play at least twice.

    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, marp etc...)

    However...GameEx is the place where the tournament standings and additional info will be made public !! Click here for a direct link

    The contest will start at January 6th 2014 11:59 gmt time. This will allow us to "recruit" as many players as possible. The more the merrier smile.png
