New TO: Eternal Shadow  GAME IS NOW FULL  but i'm still taking reserves
2nd game of the series as the first one is still going with the format working well. The game starts out with 32 players in 4 group. Winners will stay in the higher groups while losers will end up in the lower groups and eventually eliminated. The goal is to keep from being eliminated by staying in the higher groups and eventually surviving until the final rounds. I like calling this format TUG OF WAR. There will be 11 rounds. Please read the Game Format to see how all this will be played out.
Each tournament will be on a different map and winner gets to pick the next map (non-beta maps only)
I need 32 players and up to 5 reserves
