[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 213410, member: 134"] The end date to the tournament has been fixed. It ends on Monday. FarSight probably didn't bother explaining the rules because they are the same ones that have been on mobile and PSN for over a year now. They are... - You have one week to post the best scores you can on 8 different tables - You get 20 minutes per try to achieve your score - You may play an unlimited amount of tries to get a better score People say it is a grind fest because it is limited only to how many tries you feel like giving it. If you are skilled, it is a matter of maximizing points within the 20 minutes. If you aren't so skilled, it's about getting that one lucky game where everything goes right for you. In other words, it's less about talent and more about time invested. I think it would be downright diabolical, and fun, to make it use only what your last score posted was. That way you'd have to think twice about topping a score you were pretty happy with, but think you could do better on, maybe. Here's how the rest of the tourney runs... - There is a maximum of 800 points available. - 100 points goes to top score, 90 to 2nd, and 85 (I think) to 3rd. After that, points work in fractions based on total number of unique players. - This first tourney there is only bronze level. Top 10% of all scores in overall standings will earn silver rank for next tournament. - Same will apply next tourney for silver level, where top 10% will earn gold status. Lowest 10% will drop back to bronze. - You only compete against those in your same bronze/silver/gold level [/QUOTE]
