Re: Sensible Days 2018 - Billund, Denmark, 21/22 July

Introduction

The Sensible Days must go on! This time the world championship of SWOS will take place in Billund, Denmark. This will be the 15th edition held in the series of the World Cup. A remarkable story in itself, of what started out with just a few players meeting in Pirmasens, is now an ongoing international tradition for many years. We see players travel great distances to play their beloved game and meet with their fellow SWOS friends. During the weekend of 21/22 of July 2018, we will find out who will be crowned as World Champion of SWOS in both PC and Amiga. Along with the 2 main tournaments, a couple of small side-events and cups will also happen.

The tournaments are open to anyone, but a pre-payment is mandatory to join the event! This is done to ensure better organizing possibilities, arranging of groups seedings, amount of equipment needed, getting the right amount of food drinks etc.

If you have any questions regarding the event, feel free to contact the organizers. Contact info is listed below.



Location info tournament fee



This event will take place at the same location as the world cup in 2014. It is a very suitable place for the event, placed just outside of Billund called Grenelejren . No problems with noise pollution, 44 beds and plenty of room around the house if you want to be a happy camper. A couple of shelters are also present at the location. It is very easy to come by car, and for people arriving at the Billund Airport by plane, we will arrange pick-ups. The location has all we need for the weekend, and the food will be a mix of traditional danish food. The food and drinks will be an all-in-one package. Drinks are flatrate, and there will be 3 main meals during one day. Along with this we will buy some snacks, and make it possible to make toast sandwiches in between the big meals. A total of 8 meals will be available for the people who join all weekend.

Format Rules

The following rules are the same for both (AMIGA) (PC). Only difference is the tactics and KO rules.

1st Group stage with groups played as DIY leagues. A maxium of 7 players will be in each group. Expected number of groups are 4-6. Players ranked top 4 in the groups are still in the tournament, while the rest can play the optional fun cup known as onion/cucumber tournament.
2nd Group stage will decide seedings for the knockout rounds which will consist of a Master group (group winners), Super group (runner-ups) and 2nd chance groups (3rd and 4th positions from 1st group stage.
KO rounds, played as DIY cup

Players are placed in groups by drawing from pots made from placements on the ss.de offline / online rankings by the SWOS veterans and organizers.

Teams:
Any original team from SWOS 96-97 may be chosen, and edited through Edited Custom Teams menu, to add a personal touch to your team (names and colors).
For base we will use the online save disk. A custom teams and tactics thread will be created later on.

Pitch Type:
Always random (pressing ESC to get a new pitch, only if both players agree). If both players agree to play on a specific pitch this is fine too.

Controllers:
Free of choice. Feel free to bring your own controller. Also there will be various controllers present at the tournament.

Home player advantage :
The home player may pick his seat position first if he wants to.

Other gameplay rules:
Players are not allowed to press R , S , SPACE , F9 ESC during a game unless agreed upon amongst the two players.
Number of substitutes for each match is 5 of 5.

Gametime / options:
In the group stage 2 games will be played vs each player ( home and away match) - 1 match lasts 3 mins. Groupstage options:



Specific AMIGA rules:

Amiga KO-rounds: 2 x 3 min, no ET, no penalties!


- If it s a draw another 2 games have to be played!
- If they also end in a draw (no extratime!!!) on agg. a penalty shootout will take place!


(tactic rule for Amiga makes this mode mandatory, see below!)

Special tactic rule for Amiga:
The home player (the first player of a fixture Home vs. Guest ) is allowed to use a custom tactic. If he does that the guest player is also allowed to load a custom tactic! If the home player doesn t use a custom tactic, the guest is not allowed to use a custom tactic.
If a custom tactic is chosen by the home player his opponent may use any available tactic on the disc if he hasn t got his own (except the one from opponent if he does not agree, unless he is not the creator of it)!

Optional: Players agree between themselves! (eg.: both games with tactic, or both games without) However, only 1 tactic may be loaded pr. game by each player!

@djowGer: Excellent post, quality as usual.

Thought 16/17 teams were one-off last year?

guess I heard the same...

PS. in!

Only oryginal Sensible World of Soccer 96/97 NO for making 16/17

In, though I probably won t play the tournaments.

i dont care, but if rules last time only 96 then it should be tradition

Not even the xBox?

Maybe that one, and the other major tournament (Classic).
Not the minor ones
