Here's the scoop:
- The 60 minute room is being replaced with the new Big Dog Tournament room. (We will be expanding to 12 rooms very soon and will bring back the 60 minute room).
- The new Big Dog room will have an in-room leader board similar to the Survivor Sunday room.
- The new tournament runs for a week from Sunday morning at 12:00am (0400Z) to Saturday night at 11:59pm (Sunday 0359Z).
- The tournament is point-based. Here's how it works:
- Each time you win a game, you get a point
- If your opponent has a higher rating than you, you get bonus points (1 bonus point for every 100 higher rating)
- Example 1: If PlayerA (1500) defeats PlayerB (1850), PlayerA wins 4 points (1 for the win and 3 bonus points for the rating spread of 350)
- Example 2: If PlayerA (1310) defeats PlayerB (1950), PlayerA wins 7 points (1 for the win and 6 bonus points for the rating spread of 640)
- The loser's points remain the same. You never lose points.
- Each time you win a game, you get a point
- You can play as many games as you want. Obviously we're encouraging people to play the "big dogs" on ChessJam.
huuuhahahahaa
