Yep, it’s a classic school children’s game so why not incorporate it into a tournament? Even though I dislike the game, it might turn into a fun tournament!
Basics:
Open to Premium and Non-Premium. If Non-Premium, you must commit to one free slot during the whole tournament.
Number of Entrants: 32 (may vary)
Map: Your Choice
Game Type: Standard
Play Order: Your Choice
Bonus Cards: Your Choice
Fortifications: Your Choice
Fog of War: Your Choice
Number of Games: Minimum is 1, while there is no determined Maximum amount of games.
Other Details:
The basic game of Duck, Duck Goose is that people go in a circle and one person is “IT”. They walk around the circle and tap on people’s heads while saying, “Duck, Duck, Duck (and when they reach the person they want to make “IT” they say Goose!” Now the “Goose” has to chase “IT” around the circle, and whoever sits down first in the goose’s spot is not IT. If Goose catches “IT” the “IT” has to sit in the middle and is out. This goes on until there is a winner. This is how it will go into the CC Style of this game:
The “IT” is chosen by random draw. IT challenges/says “Goose” to Person A. They battle on A’s settings (for example, Doodle Earth, Standard, Sequential, Escalating, Chained, Sunny). If IT loses, IT has not caught A, and therefore, A will sit down, and IT will go again. If IT cannot catch somebody in 3 chances because they kept on losing, (in a row, or else this will take forever), I will declare them out, and they will sit in the middle. If A loses in 10 and under rounds, IT has simply beaten A to A’s spot and A becomes IT. If A loses in over 10 rounds A has become “tired” from running and IT has caught A, therefore, A is out, and IT is still IT.
When there are two players left, they will play a 5 match game, 2 games of each player’s choice and maps, and one game with my choice and map. Winner is player who wins the most.
Notes:
*When you are challenging a player, you must PM or post the name of the person you are challenging.
*Alliances are not allowed.
*Ignored lists are ignored in this tournament. If you are going to play somebody on your ignored list, remove them, or else you will be replaced.
*If I feel that there is a rule that is needed to be changed to make the tournament more fun for everybody, I will change it without discussion.
*If there are any concerns/questions/problems etc. feel free to PM me or post on this thread.

possibly, but I am thinking of changing the rules to either allow two "IT's" or to change it to 32 people, possibly both...

Ok, I like this. I'm slightly nervous playing my favorite map in 1 v 1, but I'll go for it.

Please explain. Maybe I don't understand the rules you threw down.

Well, in my opinion, I do think that all variables in the game affect to how it will be played. (Escalating on the other hand, might not help as much).
What part of the rules you don't understand?

My confusion (i'm not sure that's the right term, but whatever) is in 1v1 there's no difference between sequencial & terminator. In 1v1 there's no difference between sequencial&freestyle. For that matter, you can't even make a 1v1 terminator game. So, I'm not so much confused as I am just mentioning (hopefully, politely) that these categories don't apply to 1v1. So what i'm confused about is "is this a 1v1 tourney (and therefore these don't apply), or am i missing how these do apply to a multi player tourney"? I hope I didn't say that rudely; I'm trying to be polite, not juvenile.

First of all, I never said you had to say Standard. They are all automatically standard. And yes, there is a difference between sequential and freestyle. Some people like freestyle better than sequential, others like sequential better than freestyle. It doesn't matter to me, I'm not playing in the tournament, but I feel it's better to give others the choice to chooose.
And as far as I'm concerned, you didn't say anything rudely (as far as I'm concerned, like I said).
I hope this helps.
