Gencon event was announced as the RTW format. The ruling above is now in place.

Dysole and Bengi both really need that Season 20 auto bid since neither are above .500 on the year. Should be a good one and a close race down the stretch at the #16 line.

When does this stuff start coming out? Like format and whatnot?

[Dysole]

I'd hazard not too far from now. It wouldn't start up until after S22 is finished (and we actually have quite a few people who are on the cusp depending on S22) but I'd anticipate within the next few weeks. A few things need to be ironed out.

Looks like October 14 and October 24 were the two previous format announcement dates which have come out prior to all the participants being finalized, so a couple of weeks is a decent estimate.

In a most fitting fashion, the current 2015 #1 player @Kinseth and #2 player are playing the final 2015 rankings match in the EOY Finals to see who will finish as the #1 player of 2015.

Beware: Tooting of one's own horn commencing:

Closing the loop on 2015. It was a lot closer than last year, but I managed to claim the year end #1 for the second consecutive year.

I had to win the EOY tournament with only 1 loss and have dok go 0-2. Thanks dok!

Just for comparison's sake:

2014 Record: 30-9
2015 Record: 23-9

2014 Tournaments Won: 3
2015 Tournaments Won: 2 (and 1 runner up)

And just for funsies, here's the overall top 10 from both years:



7 people are in the top 10 both years and 4 people are in the top 5 both years.

Congrats, kevindola!

Those of you eyeing this thread should know that there is some great stuff in the pipeline over at the C3V, and the only reason it hasn't been released yet is that it needs playtesting, which I know you guys could do expertly. Please help us out by playing some games online (or otherwise), so we can keep our wheels turning.

I aim to please.

Wait, your 23-9 and kinseth's 22-9 are higher-ranked than my 22-7? What a crappy algorithm! Nobody should pay any attention to this.
