You asked if FB-on is available... :smile17:
The participants in FB-8 are: Maretti, Aiwe, Stinger, Joker2k, KobRa_RR, God, Javdet, BISHOP, Sanin, and zloy_romantik.
I ask each of these players to confirm their participation within 3 days by clicking the "Register for Tournament" button, which Kostya will add to the thread soon.
I. Regulations and Deadlines
FB-9 will be held as a round-robin tournament, meaning that each participant must play against every other player, and the winner will be the one with the most points.
The tournament starts on September 21, 2015; there are 2 weeks per round. Players have 3 days to agree on a time to play. However, if 2 players cannot find a common time, EACH sends the organizer 3 options for when they are ready to play, but no less than 4 hours (if a player does not send their time, then the time sent by his opponent takes priority). If the times do not match at all, it is scheduled by the organizer - from Saturday night to Sunday (from 9 PM Moscow time and at least 4 hours).
To avoid conflict situations, all players must save game saves and logs of correspondence, based on which the organizer and judges can make a decision regarding the outcome.
Each round is played STRICTLY according to the results of the draw; playing earlier is prohibited due to the inadmissibility of the situation where someone has already played 8 matches, while another has only played 2. Reports about games submitted late will be canceled.
Deadlines for rounds will be observed VERY strictly; those who miss them will face severe penalties, regardless of authority.:smile29:

II. Rules and Templates.
1. Version for SoD 3.2 (4.0) + HD-mod with HW-Rules patch version 1.34 enabled; tents, forts, and cartographers – checked; second level building and obelisks – disabled. (If both parties wish, you can play on other rule versions)
The turn time for each template varies and may change by mutual agreement.
3. The template for the round is determined randomly from 9 templates: 2sm4d3, 8xm12a, skirmish (200%), 6lm10a, JC, 8mm6a, anarchy (random 200%), diamond, Mini nostalgia. Blue starts first (the player indicated in the draw as second).
By mutual agreement, it is allowed to play on any other template.
Cities are chosen using the standard randomizer.
4. Victory earns 3 points, a draw earns 1 point, and defeat earns 0 points.
5. Players receive numbers randomly during the draw.
6. If 2 or more players score the same number of points, the following indicators will be used to determine placement:
a) Berger coefficient
b) Head-to-head result

III. Organizational Issues
1. This is an official, regular tournament.
2. The tournament is held according to the Rules for organizing, conducting, and participating in tournaments.
3. Tournament organizer - zloy_romantik (296524052)
Tournament judges Pit for LM (471401475), Dirty_Player (ICQ 408722873).
4. For each played match, participants must submit a report and confirmation.
5. All games in the tournament go into the seasonal rating. Reports and confirmations are written in this thread and will be copied into the "Reports of online games and their confirmations" thread. That is, there is no need to duplicate reports in the season.
6. A player who does not finish the tournament and withdraws without a VERY valid reason loses the right to participate in the next OFB and beyond :)

False start, I understand. There was always something special about the tournament, but now it's gone, which is a shame. It's getting smaller. And why isn't there a mirror in the list of templates?! But there is, for example, m200. Strange.
Sheymik, yes. But playing m200 in Fortress is the ultimate fun, a pure coin flip.

Everyone can create their own unique experience, and if both players want to, they can play on any map.

The rules don't mention the "Cherk" map. Are the maps chosen the same way as in the official build, or differently? Does the color change? I also didn't understand the point of the skirmish. There are only 4 games in the entire official build using this template. But they removed "Spider," which had 24 games in the official build (for comparison, that's more than "CM," which was also kept).

The rules don't mention anything about the "Cherk" map. Are cities selected in the same way as in the official maps, or is there a different method? Does the color change?
I also didn't understand the point of the skirmish. There are only 4 games played on this template in the entire official map pool. But they removed "Spider," which had 24 games played on it in the official map pool (by the way, that's more than "CM," which also remained).

I was expecting something interesting in the rules for the faction balance tournament this year, but in reality, it's the standard format with the standard selection of factions. Forget about the skirmish debate:D. Probably, skirmish, small map, and anarchy will only be played in matches that don't matter =)
I had my own idea for the faction balance tournament:
1) Create a list of game templates for voting (excluding mirror matches) (about 15+ popular templates).
2) Conduct a closed vote among the participants, in which each sends 9 templates on which they want to play in the tournament.
3) Based on the voting results, 9 templates are selected for the tournament, for which the majority of votes were cast. The voting results are published in the tournament thread.
4) A tournament bracket is created, in which everyone plays against everyone in 1 game, with a fixed faction for each player.
5) A template is set for each round (the template is not repeated twice).
6) Based on the game round, the template for the round, and the faction in the match, players send a list of factions to the organizer for each game round (factions are not repeated). After receiving information from all players, this information is added to the tournament bracket.

I see this tournament as a battle of the strongest players of the last six months, who play all factions and any city.
This is just my opinion, don't throw stones at me. Perhaps this option will appeal to the players and the administration and will be taken into account when forming the official tournament rules on the website.

I expected something interesting in the rules of the General Battle this year, but in reality - it's a standard Cradle with a standard choice of towns. Forget about the fuss over skirmish :D. Most likely, if skirmish, SMKA and anarchy are played at all, it will be in games that decide nothing =)
I had my own idea for the General Battle:
1) Establish a list of game templates for voting (no Mirror templates) (about 15+ of such popular templates).
2) Hold a closed vote among participants, where each player submits 9 templates they want to play in the tournament.
3) Based on the voting results, 9 templates that received the majority of votes are selected for the tournament. The voting result is published in the tournament thread.
4) A tournament bracket is formed, where everyone plays each other once, with a fixed color for the players.
5) A template is set for each round (the template is not repeated twice).
6) Based on the game round, the template for the round, and their color in the game, players submit to the organizer a list of towns for each game round (towns are not repeated). After receiving information from all players, this information is added to the tournament bracket.

I see this tournament as a battle of the strongest players of the last six months, who play on all templates with any towns.
This is just my IMHO, don't throw stones. Perhaps the option will appeal to the players and the AC and will be taken into account when forming the official tournament rules on the site.

The idea is so-so - because you'll inevitably have to play garbage like Panic, Balance, or Jebus Cross

No one here who is sober will play random maps. And there simply aren't 10 decent maps. I understand that the final of the Factions Battle on skirmish is interesting for viewers – it's fast and action-packed, but for players, it's just a gamble, and it's not worth it.

By the way, for those who don't stream, I suggest you contact someone with a TV broadcast setup for a re-stream (I'm sure there will be willing participants), or I can help with setting up a stream: this would be of interest to many.

No one present here will play random maps while sober. And there simply aren't 10 decent maps.

With 10 participants, you need 9 maps.
There's plenty to choose from, and the maps are quite playable, for example:
1 - 8mm6a,
2 - 6lm10a,
3 - diamond,
4 - jebus,
5 - spider,
6 - 8xm12a,
7 - 8xm8a,
8 - mini-nostalgia,
9 - 2cm4d3.

It's unlikely that any of the participants in the Facebook group are unfamiliar with these maps.

There are also some game maps left - balance l-u, nostalgia, panic, anarchy, and three m200 maps.
