Mini Cup Series | Announcement

I'm excited to finally announce the FFA Mini Cup Series!
This event consists of 4 weekends of "mini cups" followed by a final. Starting on the 12th of November, each Saturday at 19 CEST / 13 EST, there will be a mini cup. Each mini cup 16 players will compete in a 2-round bracket (four 4-ways, winners proceed to a second 4-way). Winners of each weekend's cup qualify for a spot in the overall final (4-way) to be scheduled at a later date.
Basic details
• All players are welcome to join (as long as you are known to the community - no smurfs!)
• Play in as many weekend cups as you want
• No prizepool (we play FFA for passion and bragging rights)
• All games are 4-way FFA, time capped at 90 minutes, with the final 15 minutes as sudden death
Pre-register and find all rules and details under "Mini Cup Series" in the discord:

Full rules also double-posted in the comments below.

How to sign-up and play
• Pre-register in FML discord
https://discord.gg/7XKMuzA
• You can pre-register for multiple weekend's cups
• Pre-registrations after the 16th person go to the wait-list -- you will be the first to fill in spots if they open up
• We only consider pre-registrations for a cup up to 12 hours prior, after that you can still check-in and hope to find a spot, but it is not guaranteed
• While you don't have to pre-register to join a cup, spots are limited so we encourage you to pre-register early to secure a spot. It also greatly helps admins to plan the event
• Players who win a cup and qualify for the overall final cannot play in subsequent cups, regardless of pre-registration
Checking-in on Cup days
• Check-in begins 30 minutes before each cup (FML discord)
• When check-in closes, if there are more than 16 people, the 16 player spots are given with this prioritization:
1. Players who pre-registered (first 16)
2. Players on the waitlist (pre-registered after 16)
3. Players who haven't played a cup match yet
4. Everyone else: the order of check-in
• Match assignments are drawn and announced when check-in closes. The game should be immediately hosted and start within 10 minutes
• Players who don't show up will be subbed, no delays
Other rules
• Same rules as FML except the following (mostly to support a cup format)
• In the case of a timer ending, winner is determined by hero kills followed by gold mined
• No islands
• Players each have only 5 minutes pause
• Games will not be re-hosted unless there is a disconnect in the first 2 minutes
• Match assignments will be loosely seeded by performance in recent FFA events
• Games must be hosted from event map-pack
• Maps are custom and have sudden death starting at 75 minutes and game ending at 90 minutes
Sudden death features
• Players gold and lumber cut in half
• Heroes base HP cut in half
• Buildings max HP drop to 25%
• Workers can't build new buildings
Most importantly, even though we hope for good competition, this is meant to be a fun FFA event. Treat each other with respect so we can keep this small community together and continue doing more FFA events in the future.
