Rules Breakdown
20 players will be able to compete in each division, but if a player enters into two divisions they must be equal in difficulty (so if you signed up for Single Division, Heavy then you could only sign up for a Heavy equivalent on Doubles and could not sign up for Light or Standard on either).
The tournament will be conducted single elimination with no qualifying round. The judges will arrange the bracket using their own methods (most likely random) before the tournament.
Each player will select one song and then a judge will select the third. After each song both player's Perfects, Greats and O.K's will be counted (Perfects and O.K's will be worth 2 points, Greats 1 point) and whoever has the most wins that particular song. The player who wins 2 out of 3 songs advances on to the next round.
Certain songs can only be chosen by the mutual consent of both players or by a judge. For example, 10 foot songs cannot be chosen except by the agreement of both players or by the selection of a judge. Currently, that will translate into 8's for Standard and 6's for Light.
RedOctane will be providing prizes, however they are currently TBA.
