1. Raki,
Hey guys,
It’s been a while, but here we go, another uno tournament!
It took some time but we finally found a good date that works.
This tournament like the other ones, will be taking place over 2 days which is Saturday, July 16 and Sunday July 17. We think it’s a perfect time because it falls rite after Ramadan and the Euro cup, so we have no interference!
The tournament will begin at 1400 GMT, 10 A.M. Eastern, 3 P.M. UK, 4P.M. Egypt and 5P.M. Turkey.
Please note that we’ll be starting at the same time for both Saturday and Sunday and as always, if you’re having any trouble converting time, you can always message me, Imthechampraki or one of the other 2 organisers, Mancity and Magicalkrrish on the playroom.
This tournament will have a slightly different format than our previous uno tournaments. In our previous uno tournaments, our first round consisted of only 1 game for everyone, either you won it and you continued onto the next round, or you lost it and you were out.
This time, our first round will be in group format.
How that works:
Say you’re in group B with 3 other players, Player X, Y and Z. You’ll be guaranteed 3 matches as you’ll be playing X,Y and Z. Player X will also be guaranteed 3 matches as he’ll be playing the 3 other players in your group. This might be confusing for anyone who’s not familiar with the group format, so, any questions will be answered by any of the organisers or can be posted down below.
Ynwa has kindly volunteered to randomly draw the players in to their respective groups.
We won’t decide how many groups we’ll have or how many players advance to the next round from the group stages until we close registration and have a good idea of how many players we have.
The second round and onwards will be knock out rounds, so you’ll only have 1 game.
The group stages (first round) will be held on the Saturday and the following rounds will be on the Sunday.
We’ll keep the rules short and simple as always, No chatting during rounds. In the group stages, if you don’t show up on time to play with your group, we’ll either look for another player on standby or you’re group will precede without you. It’s that much more important to show up on time this tournament as we’ll have several tables going at once with the different groups, we won’t have the luxury of pushing your match to the last spot of the day.
Please note that simply replying to this post doesn’t book you a spot in the tournament, you’ll have to have a conversation with one of the organisers. Don’t refrain yourselves from replying though as your reply will let us know who to contact next.
Registration closes on Sunday, July 10.
Here’s to a memorable and enjoyable tournament.
