Game Details:


Game Number: 7

Game Type: Winner Takes All

Phase Length: 25 hours

Pot size: 175 (Bet of 25). If any player wishes to reduce the bet he should email myself and alert all other players in his Group of it in a Global tab, and it then may be reduced. If all players wish to increase the bet, they should agree to in the Global tab of a game, and then each should email me to confirm that they wish to do this. If a player wants a lower than 25 bet for the first game, they will have the opportunity to ask for this in the pre-season email.

Each player is responsible for ensuring he is able to play in the game at the scheduled time, in order to achieve this, he may ask for a reduced bet. If he is unable to pay any bet, then he shall forfeit the game, and the game shall be played with a Civil Disorder Italy. If two players are unable to play, then there shall also be a Civil Disorder Germany. In the event that three or more players are unable to provide any bet, the game is considered a draw between those able to play. The SC counts for each player for the game are 34/the number of players able to play.

Nations: If the Power Choice option is available by the time of the second game’s beginning, the nations for each game will be made so that no player plays the same nation twice. I shall instruct players on which nation to place as their top preference for this to happen smoothly.

Errors: If the game is begun with any error in the set-up, the game shall be called a draw and then restarted.

Start dates: Games will begin in the second week of September, and new games will be begun during: The fourth week of September, the second week of October, the fourth week of October, the second week of November, the fourth week of November and the second week of December. I shall provide reminders to every player of these dates. The second season will begin on the second month of February. There will be a summer break until September when the third season will begin.


Sitting:


Due to the long period of play in this league, we understand that people may need a sitter for their account. Because of this, we shall be providing the management of a sitting service for people’s accounts. In return for having their account sat should they be unable to be at a computer, players will agree to sit other peoples’ accounts in the leagues whenever they are able. We hope that players will be able to make sure that this system works, by agreeing to sit accounts willingly.


Points:


There will be 12 points awarded for a win, 6 points for a two-way draw, 4 for a three-way draw and 3 for a four-way draw. We doubt that there shall be five, six or seven way draws, however, should they occur, 2.4, 2 and 1.7 points will be awarded respectively.

In the event that two players have the same number of points, they will be differentiated between on the basis of a SC count across the games. The maximum SC count in any game is 18, even if more are held.


Leagues:


The winner of each league will enter the Premier league, along with the two highest scoring second placed players. The three remaining second placed players will enter league A with the four highest scoring third placed players. This will be reciprocated down the groups. Should there be a sixth league, then it will be re-jigged somewhat, but be in the same vein.

From the first “League Season” onwards there will be two up/two down between the leagues. If there become too many leagues to allow swift flow from lower to higher leagues, then a parallel league scheme may be introduced.
