Hello!
Gameweek 6, the last of the league phase, is now over. We hope this was a fun set and that you saw some of the feedback incorporated into how we curated the questions. And, with that, we have come to the “knock-out” stage of the season that comprises two weeks - Gameweek 7 and Gameweek 8.
Before we get into the details, you can see your draws in the usual place via our linktree. Click the button below to go there.
We’re sure you have a ton of clarifying questions about how we proceed, at least going by the amount of WhatsApp pings I received today. So, here are some of the key points:
We have drawn you in Tiers of “8 players” each. This means that if you finished anywhere between 1-8 on the leaderboard, you are in Tier 1. Similarly, 9-16 would be Tier 2, 17-24 would be Tier 3, and so on. Tier 33, please note: we have drawn you slightly differently due to player shortages. So, we apologise if you’re in a 3-person draw there.
In gameweek 7, you will play against 3 other players within the tier and the top 2 players from each game will proceed to the “Tier Final” and the rest of the four players (two from each game, again) will proceed to the “Tier Placement Game”. This is why I’ve mentioned that while this is a knock-out phase, you’re not essentially knocked out for playing, just from competing in a “final”.
There will be tie-breakers on hand to break any ties such that we know who the top 2 players are. If the tie is between 1st and 2nd ranked players in a game, we don’t need to break that since both of you will meet again in the Tier final anyway.
Gameweek 7 and Gameweek 8 will have an altered schedule, as mentioned on WhatsApp. You can play your game between Wednesday 20th Mar, 4 PM IST and Tuesday 26th Mar, 8 PM IST. In other words, we’re taking a holiday on Tuesday.
Hope these clarify some of the big raging questions on your mind.
Go ahead and schedule your game, in the mean time. Remember, no games on Tuesday. Looking forward to seeing you all in the games this week.
Cheers.
