II. Regulations
Stage 1. Group Stage.
In the first stage of the tournament, there will be 2 branches of participants: the SoD branch and the 2nd branch - VT under SoD (any settings by mutual agreement)
3 groups of SoD players and 3 groups of VT players with 6 participants in each.
Each player in a group plays one game against all others. Games can be played in any order. In total, each must play 5 games. 1 point is awarded for a win, 0.5 to each for a draw, and 0 for a loss.
If a player has not played the required number of games by the end of the current round, they must explain the reasons on the forum or by contacting the tournament organizers personally. "Disappeared" participants will be disqualified.
Two players who scored the most points advance from the group.
In case of equal points, places are distributed according to additional indicators (in order of priority):
1. Berger coefficient.
2. Head-to-head match.
3. Points earned in a game "weigh" more than technical wins.
4. If it is impossible to determine the playoff qualifiers by previous indicators, players will be offered a scheme of transition games. At this moment, it is impossible to foresee all possible combinations of results. Therefore, the final scheme will be thought out based on the situation that develops in the groups by the end of the stage.
4.1. If a disputed situation arises only in one group between two players (equal BC, draw in head-to-head, equality in techs), a replay is scheduled between them.
4.2. In case of equal indicators 1-3 among three players in only one group, the player with the higher current seasonal (if equal, permanent) rating takes the higher place. A replay is scheduled for the remaining two players.
4.3. If there is an even number of contenders to advance from different groups, a cross-draw will be conducted. Winners + lucky losers advance (criterion - seasonal and permanent ratings).
4.4. If there is an odd number of contenders to advance from different groups, first one player with the highest seasonal (if equal, permanent) rating among those who scored the most points in the groups will be chosen to go directly to the playoffs; a cross-draw will be conducted among the rest, and the winners of the games will enter the playoffs. If necessary, lucky losers with the best result in the seasonal (if equal, permanent) rating also advance.
4.5. Deadline for transition games - 1 week.
Stage 2 Additional Round
In each branch, 6 SoD players and 6 VT players simultaneously play an additional round to enter the final. 6 players will enter the final (3 SoD players and 3 VT players)
Stage 3. Round Robin
3 SoD players and 3 VT players play in a round robin, each against everyone else for 2 games by default: first - SoD, second game - VT under SoD (any of the versions and settings by mutual agreement)
