*SWISS SYSTEM INF0
The Swiss System is a tournament type which consists by a serie of 5 rounds where players will get to play against each other. After the first round, winners will meet other winners and losers will meet the other losers. The same happens for the next rounds. Players who wins a total of 3 games are qualified for play-offs (quarter-finals) and those who lost a total of 3 games will be eliminated.The finals will be played as any other classic tournaments, all games are defined by Random.org until the quarter finals.

Why the swiss system has been choosen? First of all, because it's a new concept that has never been used before in Serious Sam, and secondly because this system doesn't bring a "death opponent" on first round. This way a player who didn't feel good on his first game or was unlucky enough to play on a strong opponent can still expect to win his next games. This system is simply more fair in the way only most skilled players will pass to finals rather than the lucky ones.

Additionnal information: The 8 players who will make it through the quarter finals will earn a "legend" status for the next shotty tournament, others will be challengers. A tournament MVP will be selected.

Games can be postponed on demand at least one hour before it shall begin. Players that are not showing up on required time will be waited for 15 minuts, after what they will lose their game by walkover. If the player encounters an issue that would make him late, he must contact a manager.

NOTE: If we can make it to 16 players, the tournament will move from single elimination to swiss system.

What is swiss system? it's everyone who can play against everyone, and only those who wins 3 times advances to the next round, and those who loses 3 times are eliminated.

Why the swiss system? because this way everyone has a chance and there's no "death opponent on first round"

The games will be picked by random.org, winners plays against winners and losers agains't losers (such as in a lower bracket)
