Notes from the organizer: Welcome to the Group Stage of Champions League.
Firstly, thanks to Dan Spinks for helping with the draw.
Secondly, deadline for playing games is 18th March.
Players have been split into 12 groups of 5 teams each. You will each play each other 'home' and 'away'. So that will be 8 games in total within your group. The top 2 from each group will advance to the Knockout stage. 3rd and 4th in each group will drop down to the Europa League. Bottom of each group will be eliminated altogether.
In each match, 3 points will be awarded for a win, 1 point for a draw and 0 points awarded for a loss. Players in each group will be ranked by points total. If they can't be separated by that then head to head record will be taken into account. If they can't be separated by that then goal difference and goals scored will be considered. If there is still no separation then whom was ever ranked highest in the seedings will advance.
Goals can be scored as follows:
1. Achieving a unique letters. For example Joe declares RELATIONS in a round and Donald declares RELATION. Joe would score a goal as he declared a max for the round and Donald didn't.
2. In letters round you can score a goal by solving the numbers round bang on and your opponent not. If the numbers round is possible to get to the target, then closest to the target within five will get the goal.
3. Solving the Conundrum.
Deadline for playing games is up to and including 18th March, the 25th March deadline on the tournament page is purely to allow for extensions. Any extensions MUST be requested and granted before the deadline with a date for playing having to be agreed up to a week after deadline. If they come after the deadline, they will not be accepted.
Any played games will be treated as follows:
1. Unplayed games where players are considered to have made equal effort to play the game will both be awarded a 0-0 draw.
2. Unplayed games where one player has made more of an effort to play the game will be awarded a 3-0 victory.
3. Unplayed games where neither player is considered to have made any effort will both be awarded 3-0 defeats.
I need to be made aware of any efforts to get games played prior to th deadline in order to make any potential decisions easier.
If anybody has any further questions please ask.
