As some of you know I have been playing AoC on and off since 1998. Myself having recently returned to the AoC scene after a very long break, I have met a lot of new (to me) players and have been surprised to see that the micro, strategy, and booming skills in AoC have achieved even higher heights than was seen in the past. So it got me to thinking, with all this talent, who is the absolute best when it comes to mad booming skilz? Well, for this reason I have decided to sponsor a one day live booming tournament to prove once and for all who is the best Boomer in AoC. Do you have what it takes to win the title? Well, here is your chance to prove it!

All other settings are standard.
Rules and Regulations:
- You are not allowed to interfere with your opponent in any way. Any player doing so will be removed from the tournament. (Stay in your own zone.)
- You must achieve 200 villagers in the fastest time in order to be declared the winner of the match. (199 villagers and 1 scout is NOT a winning condition)
- You can use 1 patch of berries, 2 boar, 4 deer, and 8 sheep. If you use more than this you will be removed from the tournament. (You may choose to use less if you want.)
- How do you qualify? Simply following the settings and rules, post a recorded game in the forum provided stating the time you achieved 200 vills.(The top 20 list will be updated daily, but rest assured that an admin will review each recorded game to make sure the rules were followed and the time that was stated in your post was correct. If you are in the top 16 fastest times, you will automatically be seeded according to your position in the top 16. Please note that if you are in the top 20, you should probably show up on August 1, because it is possible that someone might not show up and you could well take their place.
- Live head to head matches will take place between seeds 1 and 16, 2 and 15 etc.. Only the winner will move on to the next round.
- 8 winners of the first round of matches will once again be seeded based on the time they achieved 200 vills. Then the matches will once again be played based on seeds 1-8, following the same format (i.e. seed 1 vs seed 8, seed 2 vs seed 7, etc)
- 4 winners from the previous round will be seeded 1 – 4, with the 1st seed playing the 4th seed and the 2nd seed playing the 3rd seed.
- The final match will be played between the winners of the previous round.
