Remember that skill is the last thing sought! The aim of this competition is for everyone to have a good time, irrespective of age and skill!

The intended format for this competition is a knockout and each game will go for 15 minutes (similar to the 1st Edition). In terms of the rules, this is a draft of what the rules are intended to be. Ensure that you regularly check this post for any updates:
- Each round will go for a maximum of 7 days. The quicker you complete your games, the quicker you will be able to defeat your upcoming opponents!
- Each game will have a time limit of 15 minutes per player.
- Once the draw is released, you and your opponent need to contact each other to agree on a time for your match to take place. You will have to communicate with all of your opponents in order to play all your games.
- Once a match is over, the winner is required to direct message me (jimmysmith560) with the result. Please don't post results on this thread as doing so obstructs other useful information, not to mention that it can kill the suspense.
- Since the intended format for this competition is a knockout, a loss means a player is out of the competition and a win means that a player advances to the next round.
- In the case of a draw, both players will have a rematch. This process will be repeated until one player is victorious.
- If a player is found to have been cheating, they will automatically be disqualified from the competition, and their opponent will instead progress to the next round.
- If a player fails to respond to their opponent's message within the maximum time limit (7 days), that player is disqualified and their opponent automatically advances to the next round.
