What’s a “boiloff”?
A tournament in boiloff format is one in which we hold a series of rounds, and eliminate players each round until one champion remains. Eliminated players can still participate, but will not be eligible for marathon points (except for special achievements). There will be two “bonus rounds” by which a player can re-enter play.
What’s up for grabs?
1st Place – 9 Marathon Points
2nd and 3rd Place – 6 Marathon Points
4th Place – 6th Place – 3 Marathon Points
7th place – 10th Place – 1 Marathon Point
How will the tournament be run?
Here’s the format we’re planning, which assumes 36 players:

Round 2: Zombie Headcrab Round! [36 players left]
- Map: Vikendi

- First two eliminated players from last round = Humans
- Everyone else = Zombies
- Everyone lands in the same town
- First human eaten by the horde is our headcrab winner this year!
