Trofeo de Paz (Basketball) OOC/Discussion Thread

Postby Sangti » Thu Jul 11, 2013 10:37 pm

Welcome to the first edition of the Trofeo de Paz (Peace Trophy), an "invitational"friendly tournament for those nations who are waiting for the next IBC competition, those who are enthusiastic about basketball, and those who want to sharpen their RPing skills.

I plan to start this once the World Cup has ended. At most 32 entries will be accepted with multiples of 4 or 8 preferred. Also, I will be enforcing NS Puppet Protocol (One puppet max only!). Any suspected multies shall be reported to the moderators. You have been warned.

SIGNUPS ARE OPEN TO EVERYONE :) (I forgot to include this in this OP.)

A nation can send one of the following:
- National team (A, B or X, Y, Z, or even AA...)
- Local teams
- Commercial teams (sponsors, like PBA in RL)

Format
I will group the teams into groups of 4-6, then will play games in a host city that will be determined later. This stage's format will be a single round robin. Preferably, I would prefer groups of 4 or 6, but 5 is just fine.

The number of participants in the knockout rounds (each best of 3, except for the final which is best of 5),will depend on the number of participants.

Scorination
I will use the basketball module of the latest version of xkoranate.

Sign-up

Signups are open to everyone. Thanks for asking me that, to clarify it.

Maybe I should call it a friendly tournament rather than an invitational.
