Jotto Tourney ROUGH DRAFT

over 9 years

Just a rough draft of the rules. Please comment on any potential issues and fixes for said issues if you see them.

Introduction

(make up stuff later)

Requirements for joining the tourney

  • Skype for easy contacting and match setups
  • Gyazo or Puush for fast screenshotting (will explain why this is necessarily below)
  • About an hour on each match day

Rules

  • Cheating is forbidden. Players caught cheating will be automatically disqualified.

  • A screenshot taken with Gyazo or Puush after the game completes must be sent to me within one minute of game completion. Otherwise the integrity of the game can be compromised.

  • Kicking is discouraged in almost every case. If the timer finishes, please give the player some leeway. If they do not finish their turn, message me on Skype and I will authorize the kick. Otherwise, the kick will be illegal and warrant punishment on you.

  • Failure to show up will result in a disqualification. This includes rage quitting.

Overall Format

  • The tournament will be held with 5 letter Jotto
  • The tournament will be a two-stage, single elimination setup

Group Stages Format

  • 16 (or a larger multiple of 4) players will be randomly sorted into 4 groups for the Groups Stage
  • Each group will play a Best of 2 Round Robin
  • The Top 2 players from each groups, based on points, will advance into the Brackets Stage
  • The winner of each 2 game match will get 1 point
  • The loser of each 2 game match will get 0 points
  • If the match results in a 1-1 tie, both players will receive 0.5 points
  • If a tie occurs, a best of one tie breaker game will be organized

Bracket and Finals Stages Format

  • The matches for the Round of 8 and the Quarterfinals will be Best of 3's

  • The semifinals, finals, and 3rd place matches will be Best of 5's

So that's what I have right now. The idea is to open up the signups on the 27th or 28th and start the tourney after new years. Group stages can be finished in a day or two, Ro8 and QF can be done in the same day, and the final stages can be done on the same day as well, so a total of 3 days should be all that's needed for this.

how do you tie in jotto?




The group stages will be a round robin, which means that everyone in the group plays each other twice. Each match they play will be a Best of 2. If you win one but lose one, you tie, thus splitting the points for that match.
