THE TOURNAMENT:
All the players will be divided into 4 or 8 groups of 4 and they will face each other in a round-robin bracket. Meaning every player in that group will play every other player in 2 games (once as black, once as white). Top 2 players of the group will advance into the next stage which will also played as a round-robin, and so on, until we reach the finals (a group of 4 people) where the winner will be determined by another round-robin.

The point system: 

• Win = 1 point
  
• Draw = 0.5 points
  
• Loss = 0 points
  
  

Tie-breaker used during this tournament will be the Sonneborn-berger.

Here's an example of a robin-round group: 


THE FINAL GROUP:



ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: 

• The games can be played on either chess.com or lichess.org
  
• The length of the games should be 10 minutes given to each player without additional time.
  
• Players will be given a time limit (a week perhaps) to play all their games in their group, if they fail to do so and cannot provide proof of the opponent's unwillingness to decide on a time and play a game, both of the players will receive a loss in their name. Exceptions can be provided if the hosts are contacted before the time limit is over. 
  
• The brackets will be posted here after the applications have closed.

Story

Quote:We let greed take over... The shadow realm gave us many gifts. But this time, we asked for too much... We asked for immortality; the power of the gods... They didn't like that, they told us. They warned us that if we asked for this power, they would show us their power...

But our avarice got the better of us. We were insatiable. A few years later, we asked again, and just like they said... They let us see their power. A dark portal opened, ripping open the wall. the world went quiet for minutes, no birds, no wind, nothing. And then they came...

Eldritch creatures came out of the darkness, and then, we were dealt a fate worse than death. A storm started, the place around us was froze... And soon, we lost our sanity. As I write this book, I hear the bloodshed, and I am slowly going insane... There is only one thing I am greedy for now... Death.

You will play as a set of miners who initially set out to earn riches but instead discover the ancient realm, as well as the horrors that reside inside.  Recover three unique blocks and return them to the monument to restore the realm to it's original state.

Event

This event will start at 8PM CET (7PM GMT) on Saturday 19th and is expected to take around two hours.  All players should congregate in Teamspeak, where the server IP, rules and instructions will be laid out.  We will be playing on Minecraft 1.16.2 and it will be enforced that you are using the BadLion client, which you should setup prior.  You will need to setup a BadLion account, which is separate from your Minecraft account.

You are welcome to turn up earlier if you wish.  The server will be available 30 minutes prior to the event and there will be Spleef, Parkour and an Archery Range setup to pass the time.

There will be 16 places that will be assigned on a "first come, first serve" basis.  Reply to this forum thread to sign up with your Minecraft username.  Signing up and failing to turn up / notify us in good stead will result in being temporarily banned from future events.

Brought to you by IAmFat and Popey, any questions should be fielded to them.
