Notes from the organizer: You there! Do you like numbers? Are you also one of the clinically-insane numerists who thinks LNAFP? If so, you'll like this.

Kickstarting on 08th July, most number attacks available will be played through. Aegliops,Nice, Nasty, Hyper Nasty and Spoliage need large numbers, so they are out for this one. Games will be against Prune with a simple rule...You must pick all-small every time. Large numbers showing up will void your game entirely (you'll be P1 so Prune shall copy your pick)

Knowing that solvability in all-small can be variable, the scoring system works as follows (it would be stepdown, but the tourney system doesn't allow that. The number of maxes you get will be multiplied by 2/5/7/10/25/50 (depends on the round). There are bonuses for achieving a max game as well. Specifics here-https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nPHbpLzudIAc9vut_9qdZlQiPm8m1vhJd1bW7chBrO8/edit#gid=0

The top 8/16/32 (depends upon how many sign up) with go into a seeded finals bracket. The person who finishes just outside the qualifying positions (9/17/33, again depending) will pick each of the formats for rounds in the finals, except for the grand final, which will be a Standard NA.

Tied positions within the seeding table will be resolved by a coin toss. Tied postions that determine if someone gets into the finals (i.e, positions 16 and 17 are tied if there are 16 finalists) will be chosen by a play-off.

N.B-
In the event of impossible puzzles coming up, then 'maxes' are taken as those scoring the maximum number of points in-game. For example, if '894' was target for an impossible one with 893 being the closest, getting 892 would count as a 'max', because both 892 and 893 score the highest number of points.

TL;DR-Number attacks against Prune with all-smalls.
