2013 WBC Team Tournament—The 22th Run for the Slivers
June 17, 2013

History | How Odds Are Calculated

TEAMS ARE NOW BEING ACCEPTED FOR 2013.

TEAM TOURNAMENT: Teams are composed of any four players pre-registered as a team. Each team member must select a different event as his official game. Team members and games may change only during pre-registration (by July 20). No changes may take place on-site. In case of conflicting entries, the last version received will be official. All team members MUST be registered for the convention (or hold applicable BPA membership) by July 20.

Team Names must be 21 characters or less including spaces. Specify each team member and the game each member will play. Each team member must specify a different game. Enter your team into the tournament using the 2013 WBC Pre-Reg Flyer or the Online Team Submission Form or by sending the information in an email to cd@boardgamers.org. If you are in need of a player or two to fill out your team, contact the Assistant Convention Director at acd@boardgamers.org. NOTE: All teams should supply their own logo or endure the indignity of having the webmaster create one at her whim. (See last year's logos.)

All Team Points are awarded automatically when the GM turns in the Winner’s Claim for an event (see the Points Schedule). A bonus point will be awarded to everyone who earns team points in an event that they have previously not won. The team that gains the most points is the winner. The number of entrants in each team’s events is the tie-breaker.

Scoring: To improve the speed with which the standings are updated, Team Member, whether they score a point or not, should post their point totals on the Team Tournament kiosk Standings Board as soon as they are known. The Point Schedule is listed in the printed program. Those who score points in an event they have never won will receive one bonus point. While the self-service scoring is unofficial and subject to verification, it allows attendees to gain a current sense of where they are in the standings as the week unfolds. Since the results of some events are not known until the very end (and later) of the convention, the official scoring will be done the following week and posted here. Each member of the winning team receives a Team plaque and is memorialized on the website and in the Yearbook. The winning team will receive a plaque at the 2014 convention.
