Hello everyone!
There is still time to register for the "1st PlayStrategy Cup".
I want to remind you about the original format we will have:
FORMAT
Playstrategy.org has 35 different games divided in different families.
For the 1st PlayStrategy Cup, these games have been divided in 12 different “BOXES”.
1. GO: 19x19, 13x13, 9x9
2. Lines of Action: Lines of Action and Scramble Eggs
3. Shogi: Shogi and Minishogi
4. Xiangqi: Xiangqi and Mini Xiangqi
5. Mancala: Oware and Togyzkumalak
6. Othello and Amazons: Othello and Gran Othello, Amazons
7. Chess 1 (Classic Chess): Standard Chess, Chess960, No-Castling
8. Chess 2 (Classic Chess Variants): Three-Check, Five-Check, KotH, Antichess.
9. Chess 3 (Chess Variants): Crazyhouse, Horde, Racing Kings, Atomic
10. Draughts 1 (International variants): International, Antidraughts, Breakthrough
11. Draughts 2: Brazilian, Russian, Pool
12. Draughts 3: Frisian, Frysk, American/English, Spanish
Two different types of games are going to be play every round, every player is in charge to choose one type of game selecting one of the Boxes mentioned above. So, every round, the players will play a total of 4 games.
Note: It is possible to have the same game chosen by both players in one round.
If you choose one BOX of games in one round, then you will not be able to use this BOX again during the entire tournament, so take your time to choose the correct one according to the opponents you will have in the tournament. This will make the strategy very important on this cup.
EXAMPLE
Let’s suppose that oruro and tititogepi are paired for the first round:
The 4 games to play are to be as follows:
Two games chosen by tititogepi from one of the boxes alternating colors.
Two games chosen by oruro from one of the boxes, alternating colors.
Let’s suppose that tititogepi choose Oware (BOX 5) and oruro chose Shogi (BOX 3). So, the match will consist in four games, two of Oware and two of Shogi.
Then for the upcoming rounds tititogepi will not be able to use the BOX 5 anymore, as oruro will not be able to use the BOX 3 anymore.
10!
Are the days to the deadline of the registrations and begin the "1st PlayStrategy Cup"
