Well the end of the year is here and some of us thought it would be a good time for a Player of the Year series!

With the wide variety of tournaments we we have and all the time zones I came up with the idea of running 8 different
TOC (Tournament Of Champions) tourneys in the same time as one of the tourneys of each series and then take the 8
winners and have a final tourney to decide who the winner is.

The depending upon who the 8 winners are we may have a live tourney or a multi-day.

I think we will try to have one TOC per day, as some players may be involved with more than one.

I will post a table with the top 32 players of each series, I will try to contact each player to make sure we
schedule the TOC on a day they can play. It may be impossible to make everyone happy, but as always I will do my best.

Oh yes the 8 TOC tourneys will be for: (in no particular order)

• Bloody Mary
• Monday-Thursday 3/5
• Work Can Wait
• BagO
• F3 and Saturday Mini's
• Kiwi
• Week In/Out, Saturday Stubbies and Sunday Session
• Tampa @ 9PM

Please keep up with this thread so we can have everyone play in the TOC they belong in!

The Bloody Mary TOC will run on Sunday Jan 6th
The Work Can Wait Forever will run Monday Jan 7th
The Kiwi TOC will run Tuesday Jan 8th
The Monday-Thursday Three/Fives TOC will be run on Wednesday Jan 9th.

I have talked to Lucky Dice about running one for the Bago and he was interested, I have not heard back when it will run.
(edit) I have included the standings for the Bago from LuckyDice, he will announce when the TOC will run.

Looking at the standings I would like to congratulate pollemanden for having entries in ALL the tourneys!  :shakehands: :veryhappy:
(Including the Bago from my  quick check of the stats at FLG!)

With 7 entries hoboken
With 6 entries we have resh, inim and captainmubbers
With 5 entries we have socksey, rebayona, cigale and mrawesome
With 4 entries we have sixtie, manxcat, linus, kdp, dorbel and jeeves
And there were 17 players with 3 entries... That's where I stand :)

CONGRATS and GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE!!!

Tom

can you re-size the tourney list please -  it is so wide even on my 32 inch screen it does not show the whole thing, and there is no scroll bar at the bottom... and i can't find the 4th one i am in...
Thanks

Challonge has been 'improving' things.

You can drag the bracket to the left to see the final matches

They have made other changes that are a real pain in the neck to me

tom
