Grey Ogre Games Legacy League Rules & Regulations

 

 

1. Season Durations:

 

Grey Ogre Legacy League will be divided into 4 seasons with 4 invitations per season to the end-of-year Invitational.

 

 

 

2. Earning an Invite

 

 

Each season, the Top 3 players with the highest point totals at the end of 12 weeks will be invited to the year-end Invitational. 1 more invite will be extended to the player with the highest attendance score, this is meant to reward consistency.

 

Earning Points

Points are awarded based on each individual's performance in GOG's Weekly Legacy Night on Wednesday. Each win is worth 3 points, each draw 1 point, with no points awarded for a loss.

(Example 1: Player A with 2 wins and a draw would earn 7 points, Example 2: Player B with 1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss would earn 4 points)

 

Separately, each player will also earn 1 attendance point for each event they participate in over the course of the season.

 

An update to the standings will be published weekly and can be found here.

 

Points are reset at the end of each season.

 

3. Tiebreakers / Pass Down Policy for Invites

 

If there is a tie for points in the standings in determining the top 3 players of the season, the following tiebreakers will be used to determine the final rankings:

 

1. Number of 3-0 results

2. Amount of Participation Points

3. Number of 2-1 results

 

If there is a tie for attendance points, the following tiebreakers will be used to determine the 4th invitee.

 

1. Points total for the season

2. Number of 3-0 results

3. Number of 2-1 results

 

Qualification for points takes precedence over qualification by attendance. In a situation where one of the top 3 player is also the top in attendance points, the invite for attendance points will pass down to the player with the next highest attendance. A player can only earn one invite to the Invitational. If a player already qualified for the Invitational then receives an invite from another source, the invite will pass down to the next qualified player from that season.

 

For example if Player A has already qualified for the Invitational as one of the top 3 players of season 1, if they then place in the top 3 again in season 2, the invitation will pass down to the 4th ranked player in season 2. 

 

If a player qualfied for the Invitational is unable to attend the event and notifies Grey Ogre Games beforehand, the invitation will be extended to the next person
