Hello Actifitters,
I had been pondering returning to the MAcFiT competition with a special Christmas edition. The inauguration of @Poliac Season 15 spurred me into action.
This post is just a heads-up, all the details will come in due time.
The reason for writing this announcement is that most players of @Poliac Golden League will earn a guaranteed slot in the MAcFit Christmas Special competition and their final position will determine seeding (placement in groups).
The competition will start with a group stage (4 groups with 8 players each), played in single round-robin mode. Then a play-off round (top 4 players from each group) will be held, followed by Final Four, both played in "walk alone" mode.
32 players will compete. 24 slots will be pre-filled and 8 open for qualification.
Who will play?
Top seeds in 4 groups:
- @flaxz, winner of @MAcFiT Season 13
- Winner of @Poliac Golden League Season 15
- Winner of @poprzeczka November 2023 Edition
- @bucipuci, leader of @MAcFiT Ranking
Seeded as #2 in groups:
Players ranked 2-5 in @MAcFiT Ranking table, after selecting the four listed above. Currently:
Seeded as #3 in groups:
The following players, after selecting those mentioned above:
- @Poliac GL 15 Runner Up
- @Poprzeczka Nov Runner Up
- @Poliac GL 15 3rd placed player
- @Poprzeczka Nov 3rd placed player
*Seeded as #4-5 in groups:
- 8 top ranked players from @Poliac GL 15, after selecting all mentioned above
Seeded as #6 in groups:
- 4 top players from @MAcFiT ranking table, after selecting all mentioned above
*Since the top players of @MAcFiT Ranking and @poprzeczka are in majority playing in @Poliac Golden League, it is possible that free entry slots will be awarded to Silver League players, according to their positions in the final standigs.
Qualifiers
All remaining @Poliac Golden and Silver League players, all current @Poprzeczka players and all players with at least 1 point in @MAcFiT Ranking are welcome to join and try to qualify for the remaining 8 slots.
