Dear Friends:
The Twenty-Seventh Clan Championship Cup (CCC XXVII) will be held over the weekend of March 10-12, 2006, using CIVILIZATION IV version 1.52 (or the latest patch if it is released). Please read the rules and schedule carefully.
Please register a minimum of 6 and a maximum of 20 players as replies to this thread anytime prior to Friday, March 10th at 12:01 am. at which time it will be locked. A maximum of 16 clans may enter, first-registered, first-served. There will be 9 events.
The same person can play in a maximum of 4 events (including being a substitute).
To play you must have been a CIV4Players member in good standing for 7 days prior to the CCC.
The winner of CCC XXVII will be the team who has amassed the most points. If there is a tie, after 9 events, a playoff match(es) will determine the winner.
Here is the point system for scoring:
1st Place = 8 points
2nd Place = 5 points
3rd Place = 3 points
4th Place = 1 point
In some events, where there are two equal semi-finalists who come in 3rd and 4th, then each will receive 2 points.
.................................................
Universal Rules (Unless Exception noted): Game mode simultaneous turns, seeding random, Speed Quick, climate temperate, sea level average, and difficulty level Noble. In all Friday games, where Civs are chosen (not random) the order of selection will be based on the results of CCC XXV (The last CIV4 CCC). On all other days, where CIVs are chosen, the order of selection will be based on the currently posted standings on our web page. Where necessary, the top current player rank per team will be the tiebreaker. Selection will then alternate 1-2-1-2, etc. between the two teams. In non-team games where CIVs are chosen, exact duplicates may not be chosen (but two different leaders from same country is ok). In team games, each team can pick each leader just once per team. So, for example, two players on the same team can't both be Ghandi; however, both team can pick one Ghandi. Unless specified differently, the only “OPTIONS” to be chosen are Permanent Alliance for team games, and ALWAYS WAR. Scoring is always standard according to game at end of last turn. In maps where appropriate, areas per player 1, land shape random, neutral territory random. Isthmus, ring, and spoke width 2. For team battleground games: Top/Bottom placement, setting start together. No AI Takeover. Leave "No Cheating" unchecked. For Odd numbered events, check NO CITY RAZING; for even numbered events, leave it unchecked. NEVER retire (ALT-Q) from game. Unless specified to the contrary, there will be No Barbs. If game played with Version 1.52, then Universal Suffrage, Free Speech, and State Property civics are banned in team games due to "stacking" bug.

If there are any disputes, the TD in charge of that event will make a ruling. If challenged by either side, then a committee of at least 3 Ladder Admins and TD's (from different clans than those directly involved in the dispute) will be called upon to impartially reach a fair decision. All parties are bound by this decision.
NOTE: Players are expected to be in the lobby 15 minutes BEFORE the match starts to handle all registration issues so the events can start promptly. If no one from a clan has registered by the scheduled start time of the tourney, or contacted the TD, the TD will assume that the clan isn't entering that event, and the event will begin as soon as all registered clans have all their players checked-in and available. There is a maximum grace period of 10 minutes for all events and then the TD will close registration. Incomplete teams will be dropped from that event.
