Attention RCIII players.. New Finals Date TBD.
The 3rd place team will receive their victory prize at the end of Saturday.
One Best Of Three Match still remains (Match #13), and then
The Tournament Brackets will be caught up to Saturday Feb 6.
There will then be 6 teams left, but unfortunately,
There are too many brackets left (3-5 depending on present bracket position) to finish the Tourny on Same day.
Teams who win the winners bracket will only have to play 2 matches to reach the Finals,
But a team who loses the first match of Winners round 2, will have to play 5 matches.
This would put the Finals start time in Msk at midnight.
The above mentioned team would have to play 4 straight matches then face the well rested winner of the top bracket.
The 2 Teams in the Finals Will agree to play the Finals match on either:
the following day Sunday Feb 7 at 1700 UTC, or
the following Saturday Feb 13th at 1700 UTC.
If Capt's Can Not agree to play the following day, then the date will be set for Feb 13th, at 1700 UTC.
(1700 UTC/Europe = Noon EST/US and 8 pm in Msk)
1700 UTC is peak hour for viewership and good for the streamers and viewers.
And will give time for the Players to be at their Most rested on both teams.
Thanks again to all participants,
and next year ALL the AI developers (5 and counting) want in on the action.
