1. LoS Weeklies will be implementing an ELO system for rankings. After every weekly the bracket will be submitted and the updated ranking will be posted. These rankings will provide seeding for all future weekly’s and potentially monthly’s.

2. Weekly’s will be organized into 4 month seasons.

3. At the end of a season, one final tournament will be held. All of the collective entry fees taken throughout the season (50% of each weekly) will be the pot. This means the pot will be dependent on how many entrants there are throughout the entire season.

4. The final tournament will be for the top-10 ranked players from the ELO Rankings. The players must also have entered at least 50% of the weekly’s in that season to enter the final tournament. This means that players can’t travel to 2-3 weekly’s only to farm enough points to get into the final tournament.

5. If a player in the top-10 rankings cannot enter the final tournament (due to <50% of weekly’s entered or for personal reasons), the next player in line will replace them. (Rank 11 from the ELO Rankings and so on)

6. The bracket format for the Final Tournament will be seeded like this: link

7. Venue is not yet confirmed, but I am looking potentially at a movie theater.
