[QUOTE]Originally posted by red [B]What kind of setup for 'black ladder' did you consider? [/B][/QUOTE] Kind of a Double Elimination setup. (You've got to lose twice to be 'out') Those who lost their first battle (like me :( ), go through a second round with others who lost their first battle. If you lose a second time, you're out. If not, you play your next round against those who lost their Second round World Cup battle (yet to be determined). The winners of the second round 'Back Ladder' go on to battle the losers from the third round of the World Cup, etc. Finally, the winner of the World Cup front round battles the winner of the Back Ladder. This way, it would be possible for a player to lose one (and only one) battle and still win the World Cup. :D Or I could just go sit in the Stalag and mind my own business. ;)
