1. 1/4 Final: 4 pairs are randomly selected out of 8 Group Stage winners. Each pair plays 2 games (switching sides) on Noble Rust or(?) Anubis planet.

2. 1/2 Final: 2 pairs are randomly selected out of 4 1/4 winners. Each pair plays 2 games (again, switching sides) on Wasserland or(?) Anubis planet.

3. The Final: 2 winners of the 1/2 Final play 2 games (switching sides) on New Paradise planet.

4. The losers of the 1/2 Final will fight 2 games (switching sides) on New Paradise planet for the third place.

5. Won game at any stage brings 3 points. Lost game brings 0 points.

6. There is a 3-day limit for making one turn. The violators will be automatically considered to lose the game, if he doesn't make his/her turn within 3 days it is received.

Note 1: Of course, the players are advised to make their turns as quickly as possible.

Note 2: Massive Assault Community appreciates the principles of fair play and gamesmanship. Artificial delays in making turns and thus bringing the game to unfair draw are considered to be a "bad" and "coward" behavior.

7. In case of really excusable turn delay, please, email to the Moderator (preferably BEFORE the delay takes place) and explain your reasons. MWigor will be the judge for such situations.

8. Each stage has a 3-week time limit (after the stage is officially announced). If a game is not finished within this time limit, it is counted as a draw and both players get 1 point.

9. If a battle is not finished during 3 weeks, but one player has obvious advantage, he/she should send the game's replay to the Moderator, and he will make the decision.

10. If a participant wants to drop off the tournament, he should email to the moderator.

11. If two players got the same amount of points, the winner is determined by the following factors (listed in decreasing importance order):

a) The total number of turns (the winner is the player that achieved the win in the fewer number of turns).

b) The score of personal encounters (i.e. points collected in the games between these two players during this and previous stages).

c) The cumulative difference (measured in unit cost) between destroyed units achieved during personal encounters.

d) The cumulative cost of all units lost in all battles in the Pool.

e) The cumulative cost of all the surviving units achieved during personal encounters.

f) The cumulative cost of all remaining units in all battles in the Pool.

7. If two players got the same amount of points, the winner is determined by the following factors (listed in decreasing importance order):

i) Player who has the least turns/battles rate for won battles (Won battles from current stage are counted only. Lost battles, battles in progress, adjudicated battles and battles from previous stages are NOT counted).
ii) Cost of units destroyed (Player's won battles from current stage are counted only).
iii) Cost of surviving units (Player's won battles from current stage are counted only).
If nobody has won battles, then adjudicated battles and battles in progress are counted for ii and iii, but rule i skipped.

Corrected, please confirm it:
