    I've listed below all the tournament systems.

    NAME - TYPE - BIOME - RADIUS - METAL - SPAWNS - HALLEYS

    Founder's System

    Founder's Throne - Planet - Moon - 400 - 124 - 2 - 0

    Pacifier System

    Pacification Prime - Planet - Desert - 500 - 133 - 2 - 0
    Pacifier Warzone - Moon - Rock - 250 - 75 - 0 - 0

    Zaphod System

    Zaphod Prime - Planet - Lava - 450 - 105 - 2 - 0
    Zaphod Alpa - Moon - Ice - 400 - 101 - 2 - 0
    Zaphod Beta - Planet - Moon - 250 - 98 - 0 - 0

    Zaphod is a multi-planet start with a single smashable moon and I'm really interested to see how the teams divide themselves up. Note that the spawns on Zaphod Prime look potentially unbalanced. Also, Zaphod Beta is a tiny planet with lots of metal and no moons. If the losing team takes that then the game is going to get real dull, real fast.

    EDITED to remove non-tournament system.

    Zaphod's going to need to practice his PIP. If he has multiple monitors he should probably get the mod that allows him to full screen a PIP on monitor 2.

    Also, why in the heck was this tournament never made into an announcement on the Steam PA announcements feed? You have 1656 people who would potentially see it in their Friends Activity list.

    There's only 3 rounds in an 8 entrant tournament 4>2>1 games / quarter-semi-final.

    Yeah I don't think the Monday night system will be in it. The other 3 most likely.

    Whoops, confused the winner section with a bracket. Anyone know which of these systems are the new ones?

    Rofl, that would be an epic troll from Scathis.
