Signups begin around July 24th but will remain open until a few days into the first round for reserves.

The league will have 2 rounds.

The first round will last from July 31st to August 16th. It will be a round-robin where each player (tries to) play everybody else twice. In order for your games to count, you must play at least 2/3 of your total matches. Additionally, there will be randomized mandatory matchups for each player. All of these matchups must be completed by the end of the first round except against people who will inevitably drop the tourney with no replacement. Additionally, other mandatory matchups may be assigned at any point in the league. There will also be checkpoints, where you must have completed a certain number of matches by that point. The first checkpoint will be on August 4th, and each player must have completed 6 matches. Players who don't complete the required number of matches for any checkpoint will be dropped from the league. Players who have played against them will still have those matches counted in their favor. The number of people who advance to the next round depends on the number of participants. Advancement will be determined by win/loss ratios. Numbers are subject to change.

Reserve players, who will replace players who don't make the checkpoints and will have to finish fewer matches.

The second and final round will be from August 16th to August 22nd, but extensions will be made if necessary. This round will be a bracket tourney between the winners of the last round. It will be a double elimination, best of 3. Winner of this round will be the winner of the Kongai league, and will forever have his e-peen rubbed by a blow-up doll of MLM.

Rules for individual matches will be the same across all 3 rounds:
* No card restrictions except no witches or robots if they suddenly get released in the middle of the league.
* In case of conflict, it's recommended that you keep a screenshot of all of your win/loss screens. However, they are not required.
* I'm expecting that most players are mature enough to settle disconnects on their own. However, if the players do end up in an argument over what to do, an organizer will determine what the best course of action is. Get a screenshot of the final game state right before the disconnect if possible to make the decision an easier one.
* Matches should be reported ASAP.

Scheduling Matches will be made a little easier for you guys this time. We will have designated meetup times that are completely optional but highly recommended. They will be announced in the Kongregate forums, so keep an eye out for them and spread the word.

Other stuff
* Anybody that is found to have signed up with more than 1 account will be disqualified.
* Once the tourney starts, the rules and deadlines will not change. Special cases will be handled individually, but will be unlikely to be
* Videos should not be released until after the tournament is over.

Prizes are to be determined, but the winner will definitely get something.

Updated rules. Probably forgot a few things because it's late right now...

Nonsense Sefthuko, you're just too good for this league. Wouldn't want you crushing everyone.
