Gravon's Captivating Competition

Welcome to the new Stratego competition on gravon. The Captivating competition starts next Saturday, 27 June and continues every next Saturday in July and August until Saturday 29 August. After that the endresults will be calculated. You can play for fun or you can try to end up high. It would be nice to see a lot of players participating during the weeks.

Further rules:
- Only Games on every saturday that end between 15:00gmt and 21:59gmt can count.
- Only ranked classic Games count (for clocks the isf clock is recommended but not obligatory).
- Every week The first two games played according to above criteria count against two different opponents. (the other week you can play opponents you played before in another week)

Points:
*6 point for a win 3 points for a draw and 1 point for a lost game.
*Additionally 1 point for each different opponent during the whole competition.

This means if you play 2 different opponents you will always have at least 4 points the first week, later weeks you need other opponents to keep getting 2 bonus points (or even more).

More than 2 different opponents on one Saturday will get you only 1 bonuspoint per player. Also in the endscore you can get bonuspoints because:

* After the competition (end of august) the players that played the most opponents on the days and time of competition (see criteria above) get bonus points:
50 points for the player with the most opponents
35 points for the player with second most opponents
30 points for third most opponents
20 points for fourth '' ''
15 points fifth '' ''
10 points sixth '' ''
8 points seventh '' ''
6 points eighth '' ''
3 points nineth '' ''
1 point for the player with the tenth most opponents.

Scoring Examples underneath.

NEW RULE (made a few weeks ago): The last Day of the competition there is opportunity to get a lot more points. Up to 6 games* will count for points. This is possible by playing the MSO tournament or just at gravon during the competition (15:00-21:50gmt to finish a game). It will be the special last day of the competition. After that the winner will be decided.

* this can change if MSO decides to change number of rounds.

Week 2 saturday 4 july (example):

Swordfish-Ruben87 6-1
Upanddown - FreddyKrueger 6-1
Ambiorix-Yellowhat 6-1
Upanddown - Yellowhat 1-6


All these games count but not all for bonus points:
Rave 3 (draw)+-0 (no new opponent)=3 points
Beastly 3+0=3 points
Swordfish 6+1=7 points
Ruben87 1+1 =2 points
Upanddown 6+1=7 points

Ambiorix 6+0=6 points
Yellowhat 1+6+1=8 points

After two weeks Standing:
Rave 14 points
Beastly 9 points
Swordfish 14 points
Grizzlybear 11 points
Ruben87 4 points
etc.

Rave already played 4 different opponents (all in day 1). So he is doing good for the bonus points, award after the competition. He has played the most different opponents in this example.

For sure I will participate during a number of Saturdays. Great way of keeping "in shape" until we can play our favourite game in real life again .

Nice to see you are in guys. There is no need to sign up, though. In fact all people who play on saturday and finish their ranked game(s) between 15:00gmt and 21:59gmt will automatically added to the list (unless they don't want to).

Important: I have changed a little thing: When you play more than two games on one saturday (in the timeframe) you will get the 1 point bonus if the opponents are new for you. This means that theoretically you can get a few more points than 14 on one day. I also changed this in the example: See the (fictitious) results of Rave55.
