[edit] Levels of achievement

The participant whose selected team advances the furthest in the tournament is declared the winner ("Champ").

Second place ("Sap") is awarded to the participant whose team advances second furthest in the tournament.

Third place ("Suck") is awarded to the participant whose team advances third furthest in the tournament.

From the minute of his team's elimination from the tournament, the participant may be addressed by his level of achievement for one (1) full year.

Should more than one team advance equally far in the tournament, the higher standing is awarded to the participant whose team is defeated by the smallest margin.


[edit] Prizes

The winning participant will have dinner purchased by the two remaining participants from the restaurant of their choice*. Suck will, in addition to sharing the cost of dinner with Sap, purchase an appetizer of the Champ's choice.

  • Dinner will be chosen from a designated tier, which corresponds with the furthest level of progress of Champ's selected team. See tier chart.
