DOU Doubles Classic I - Commencement

[MajorBowman]

Welcome to the inaugural Doubles Classic! This tournament will function identically to The Smogon Classic. The preliminary stage will consist of three single elimination cups, one for each of the three past generations of Doubles OU. Players will earn points from these cups using the Smogon Grand Slam point structure, which can be found here. The top 16 players after the conclusion of all 3 cups will qualify for playoffs, which will be a single-elimination bracket consisting of best-of-three multi-gen sets. When all is said and done, the top 32 players overall will earn Circuit Points according to the payout listed here.

Ties after the preliminary rounds will be broken in the following order:

1. Best result in an individual tournament. If Player A advanced to the finals of one cup while Player B's best result was a semifinal appearance, Player A will be ranked higher.
2. Overall win percentage. This is simply the ratio of sets won to sets played.
3. Tiebreaker set. If a tie remains after the first two tiebreakers, the tied players will play a best-of-three multi-gen set.

Signups for each cup will be posted during consecutive weeks for a staggered start. Signups will remain open for one week, after which the tournament will begin. The schedule is as follows:

• BW Cup: Signups posted Sunday, June 7
• XY Cup: Signups posted Sunday, June 14 - Sign up here!
• SM Cup: Signups posted Sunday, June 21 - Sign up here!

If there are any questions, feel free to post them in this thread or send me a PM and I will answer them promptly.

Note that this is not the signup thread - any signups posted in this thread will be deleted and will not count. This post will be updated when new signups open.

Good luck to all competitors!

Now that all three cups have started and the max point values are known, the Standings Spreadsheet is now public. You can find the link here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1W2L7rLsyonICIoE9ZMoAM0zvUkQWxu67UlDHhFprZnQ/edit?usp=sharing

The green line indicates the cutoff for playoffs, and the red line indicates the cutoff for earning circuit points. Let me know if you see any mistakes, and good luck to everyone still competing!
