What does it matter?
What's done is done and I should get on with my life
Why are you haunting me?
Why are you haunting me?
Why are you haunting me?
Why are you haunting me?
Well, I don't know what it means
But I can't seem to make myself forget
Was it something that you said?
Was it all the guilt inside my head?

REQUIREMENTS:
1. This tournament is for EXPERIENCED and ACTIVE players (registered on SE forums in 2012).
2. You need to be able to play on the Test Server.
3. You need to be able to play ANY HERO since you cannot know what hero you will be using next round beforehand.
4. You need to be able to meet the tournament's SCHEDULE.
5. 40 card decks (hero included) as minimum.
REWARDS:
1. First place wins 1000 SC.
2. Second place gets 500 SC.
3. The tournament is sponsored by Wulven!
4. The winner gets an invitation to participate in Randomizer 9 (but will have to skip the Randomizers until then).
RULES:
1. Fairness above all (you are not allowed to exploit any known bugs - http://www.shadowera.com/showthread....post-bugs-here!).
2. This is a Bo1 double elimination tournament.
3. Each hero can be selected by 1 player only (first come, first served basis).
4. In order to sign up you need to select a hero that you intend to use in Round 1 from the list below (NOTE rule #3).
5. After each round the defeated player will choose a new hero for his opponent to play next from the list below when reporting the results or within an hour after his opponent's report (unused and defeated heroes, but in the Grand Finals if a second game is required, both players keep their heroes, but switch the starting sequence), otherwise the winner gets to play the hero of his defeated opponent.
6. Pair-ups for each round will be random (based on the certain principles to be disclosed after the tournament concludes).
7. The first 16 players eligible to participate will join the tournament (the rest will be put on the reserve list).
8. As the tournament's organizer I reserve the right to be the 16th player as well as a reserve player for certain heroes.
9. I'll work in this NOT as a permanent checker of all the games, but as an intervention guy. Meaning that I will be a referee, should that be required by one of the participants of the game in question.
A. A sync error will have to be replayed unless a player concedes (with the same starting sequence and decks).
B. A frozen game will have to be replayed unless a player concedes (with the same starting sequence and decks).
C. If a player is disconnected during a game, the victory goes to the other player unless BOTH players agree to replay or a player concedes.
D. Being unable to comply results in replacement by a reserve player in Round 1 (& Round 2 for the upper brackets) and auto-loss on further stages (unless you have a reeeaaally good reason for that and PM it to me in good time)!
E. All the players that intend to play their games on the last day for Round 1 MUST report the scheduled time of play (or state that they're unable to reach their respective opponents), otherwise the participants of such games will be replaced by reserve players or those I find on IRC (with the signed up reserve players having an advantage over the rest)!
F. All the players in the upper brackets that intend to play their games on the last day for Round 2 MUST report the scheduled time of play (or state that they're unable to reach their respective opponents), otherwise the participants of such games will be replaced by reserve players or those I find on IRC (with the signed up reserve players having an advantage over the rest) that win in a mirror Bo1 game against other reserve players for the same spot!
G. If you encounter a new bug during a game, you are allowed to replay it and adjust your deck, if necessary (given you provide a detailed report in the bug thread - http://www.shadowera.com/showthread....post-bugs-here!).
H. In order to decide who goes first opponents need to choose head or tails and then use the following command in the main #shadowera channel ".flip" or ".coin" - the bot will randomly decide who goes first!
