Introduction

RBY OU Global Championship is a standard RBY OU Tournament with a goal to find the best RBY OU player of the year.
Previous winners are Tiba, Prague Kick, Peasounay, roudolf13, and Alexander..

Each round will consist of 2 stages. The first stage each player will be given 2 sets of pairings, in which they play a first-to-2-wins (best of 3 excluding ties) vs their opponent. After the first stage is completed and the host has determined wins, players who win both their matches go through to the next round, while players who lost twice are eliminated. The players who won 1, lost 1, battle it out in a tiebreaker FT2W in stage 2 to join the two-time winners in the next round (or the player wins the tournament in the case of a final). If a 3-way final, a 3-man FT2W round robin will determine the winner of the tournament (repeated if necessary).

The prize returns: a $50 (or equivalent) amazon gift card will be given out to the winner of the entire tournament!
The winner will also earn the right to display

Won vs. Ortheore.
Won one game with a fair bit of RNG and then opponent gave me the win...which I guess meant the set and not just that game, they went offline on showdown and didn't mention coming back.
 
Yeah meant the set.

I wasn't really focused and was playing really badly, regardless of RNG. I didn't really try to switch on for the match because I didn't think it was going to happen- I only saw your VM that you'd be able to make the time pretty much at the time we were supposed to start.

I guess this helps me refine my approach to scheduling a fair bit, as I'm looking to get more stringent in that regard
