Hi, community

In this topic will be published all the information (player's list, K.O. table, etc...) about World Cup 2017 tournament that in the next days will open to inscription on MAN2 official website.

I hope this will be a great tournament!

can you write me from the tournament. it's a problem. no time

Thank you, tese1969 for gamemastering.

I'm join to tournament.

Well, here we go!

Finally, we are 29 players in World Cup 2017. That means that the 3 high glicko-score players pass directly to next phase (1/8 Final) how you can see in attached image about table of pairing.

Therefore we don't need play any previous round, thinked for more than 32 players in the list.

How you can see on rules, 1/16 Final phase will played on Eden.

In attached images you can see the ordered list of players by glicko-score at end of inscription period and the K.O. table with the pairing of matches and tournament structure.

Games will start on Friday, Sept 8. (Note for newbies: moderators will create and start the games that will appears on Games list of players)

I wish you a great tournament and good luck!

Suggest using Double Elimination system in some of the future tournaments, like they use in Counter-Strike tournaments, for example. So, those who lost their first game will have a chance to get even to the final walking through the losers table. Thoughts?

Some statistics.

Alex has 6 final (unprecedented 4 in a row), in the 5 previous he won 3 times (unprecedented in a row 3: 2014, 2015, 2016) and 2 times lost (2009, 2011). Happygrue never played in the finals and never even reached the semi-finals.

The finalists have never met in the World Cup. The overall result of their 12 matches in the tournaments: 10 wins Alex and 2 wins Happygrue. According to the World Cups rules: 8 wins out of 8 from Alex. 0 matches on Trinity.

What can help Happygrue win the final? What percentage of his victory can be bet? ...Waiting...

I have surrendered the tie-break. Congrats to Alex for another title!

I am sad we were not able to play the tie-break game on Trinity, as I liked my odds there better. As it was the tie-break was pretty one-sided. Still, last time I faced Alex on Trinity in a tournament final he crushed me pretty well. This time around I felt confident in my ability. Maybe he will sweat some about next year...

Well,

Finally we have World Champion for 2017 edition!

Winner was our great champion alex1978!

Congrats, alex and congrats too for the finalist happygrue. It was a great match!
