I'm raising the minimum # of games required to win the Twitch tournament to 20! We have the whole long weekend, and already getting a good number of games in

[beetroot]

you may want to keep it a bit lower. some of us cant be around during "peak" hours. what about 15?
also hi dustin. been a minute

[dustin]

Got a whole bunch of 20+ game qualifiers, so I'm gonna leave it at 20. You have 1 full day left to get your games in if you need more. GL!

Boo to changing the rules mid-tournament.

These rules are probably better but still...
I went from 2nd to DNQ.

I'm going to go play my tiny violin.

1 DAY CLASSIC tournament is starting tomorrow Oct 17th .
It will start round about 5pm Greenwich Mean Time ‎(UTC)‎. Room remains open till the the next event "Kill the King Tournament" starts on Oct 18th (8pm GMT),so you can directly move on there ...
We play on the classic map with the "traditional Lux" classic settings (old school but still fun ...).

probably minimum 8 games required to score, with 5+ human games counting.

Depending on how many players will be there, I'll eventually reduce either the number of games required (but at least min 6) and/or reduce the number of humans required (min 4) within the first 4 hours during the tournament, so be aware that 4 human games could also count backwards ...

Tournament Scoreboard will follow soon. It would be great if we could start with a FH at 5pm Good Luck everybody!
(no need to sign in, just come and play)

[dustin]

Sweet, thanks GFips.

Time zone conversion: 5pm GMT = 1pm Eastern time = 10am Pacific time zones

[dustin]

and then the Kill the King tournament will start on Sunday at 8pm GMT / 4pm Eastern / 1pm Pacific. SO that's when the Classic tournament will end.

[PJB]

[GFips]

CLASSIC Leaderboard

Kill the King tournament was fun! We played for almost 3 hours of FH games

HUGO was the only king able to keep his thrown! Nice work HUGO!!!



Player listing:
Hugo
Landlord
GFips
dustin
Milltycoon
PjB
Q

[GFips]

Congrats Hugo !! Nice run - you "smashed the worms" (insider joke)
Yes - it was great fun again this year with many "dead kings" (yeah - it is really tough to survive as king with competetive players). Maybe we can re-do this also outside Luxtober once in a time again ...

Sorry for you, milltycoon, that you did not get the chance this year to be king. The "king" was choosen randomly each game, but I think we are all winners by having great fun during these 3 hours!

Hugo (1/3 - 1x successfully keeping the thrown with 3 tries )
Landlord (0/2)
GFips (0/1)
dustin (0/1)
Milltycoon (0/0)
PjB (0/1)
Q (0/1)
