Seaside Champ

Qualifying
The qualifying format is group match play. The player limit is 64 players. Qualifying will be 12 rounds in groups of four players. New groups will be drawn for each game/round. Scoring will be 3/2/1/0. Pairings will be random for the first round and tiered Swiss for subsequent rounds (similar to Pinburgh). The Match Play software we utilize to run the tournament picks games. Playing order will be balanced.
The 28 players who earn the most points will qualify for playoffs. Seeds 1-4 get a bye round. We will only play tiebreakers that determine who will make it into the playoffs, and for getting a bye round. Tiebreaker matches will be best of 1 game on a random game chosen by the tournament directors with random playing order. For other ties, we will use the built in tiebreaker in Match Play that counts your 1st and 2nd place finishes.
If for example two players have the same point total at seed #8, and also have the same number of 1st and 2nd place finishes, we will use a randomizer to break the tie. This will be used only for the playoff bound players. For example, if three players are tied at seed #48, they will remain tied.

Playoffs format
* In each playoff round, there will be groups of four players where the top two from each group advance to the next round, until we reach the finals. 3/2/1/0 scoring as before. We will only play tiebreakers when advancement is at stake. One game on a randomly selected game. The higher seed gets playing order choice.
* The top seeds will have the opportunity to choose the game from a list of games provided by the tournament directors. The highest seed will have the first opportunity to select a game (or can pass the opportunity to the next highest seed that has not yet selected a game).
* Order selection on the first game will go in order of seeding (top seed gets first selection, next highest seed gets second selection). On subsequent games, order selection will be in the reverse order of the result of the previous game (last place gets first order selection, 3rd gets second selection, etc.).
* The first playoff round will be six groups of four players. The bottom two in each group will be placed in positions 17-28 depending on their point total in this round.
* Quarterfinals will be four groups of four players, with the 1-4 seeds entering the playoffs. The bottom two in each group will be placed in positions 9-16 depending on their point total in this round.
* Semifinals will be two groups of four players. The bottom two in each group will be placed in positions 5-8th depending on their point total in this round.
* The Finals will be one group of four players. A tie-breaker game will be played for any ties in the final group. One game on a randomly selected game from a game not played by the group in the round. The higher seed gets playing order choice.
