The Format:
6 groups of 4 (top 2 advance) 
3 groups of 4 (top 2 advance) 
3 groups of 2 (top 1 advances) 
Top 3 + Winner of the Losers' bracket play best of 3. Winners advance. 
CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES IS BEST OF 5.

The Rules
1. You are on your honor to play the game fairly without aid of any resources other than your brain (your personal, biological brain, located in your skull). 
2. ***Winner of each game must pm me the final score. (This will help me keep things straight.) All scores will be posted in the thread with the bracket. Discussion, trash talk and screen caps will be encouraged.*** 
3. If you resign a game, you lose. End of discussion. There are no do-overs. 
4. If 2 games are started by the same pair, the game played should be the one started by the lower numbered player. (IE: 1. Leafee and 2. QT start games, 1. Leafee's game will be played.) 
5. I have the right to amend these rules should the situation arise. 
6. If the group play ends in a tie, a playoff match will take place with the winner advancing to the next round. 
7. Losers will have the option of competing in a Losers' Bracket. 
8. Groups were randomized. Again. (Minus the QT/Beads match-up.)
