NGL - St. Louis
Free For All Event

Firing Range
All rounds will end after 10 minutes or when one player reaches 50 points, whichever comes first.
You are NOT required to be on a 4v4 team to play in the FFA. FFA is open to all spectators and individual players.
The Free For All event will be the the 1st event of the day. The best individual placement from any player on a 4v4 team will determine that team's seeding in the 4v4 bracket. (More teammates playing FFA means a better chance of earning a higher seed.)
Every round will be an 8-player free-for-all with the top 4 players advancing to the next round. We will total every player's performance across the entire FFA event then rank players in this order:
Kills - Most to Fewest
Deaths - Fewest to Most
Assists - Most to Fewest
If 2 players happen to tie in all three categories, the winner will be the player with the most headshots. (If you notice you have tied with another player for a top 4 position in your heat, please notify the referee, as these instances can be easy to miss.)
2v2 event
The 2v2 event is the 2nd event of the day and is based on a single elimination bracket.
For Halo Reach, all 2v2 matches will be a best of 3 series and all gametypes will be an 8-minute team slayer. Team slayer settings are on the Official Halo Reach Gametypes Page
For Call of Duty Black Ops, all 2v2 matches will be a best of 3 series and all gametypes are objective based. Settings can be found on the Official Black Ops Gametypes Page
The 2v2 event will be randomly seeded. The higher seeded team will select if they will host 2 maps or pick one map to host. The non-host team will have choice of color/initial spawn.
4v4 Team event
NGL's main event is the 4v4 Tournament which is the final event of the day. The 4v4 tournament will be a double elimination event. Each match will consist of a "Best of 3" series except for finals matches which will be a best of 5 series. Seeding for the 4v4 bracket will be determined by the FFA results (see "Free-for-all" above for more details). One entry into the FFA event is included with every purchase of a 4v4 Team Pass. The other 3 players are encouraged to play in the FFA event as NGL will take to top performing player from each team when using FFA to determine seeds.

We will be having 2 sessions of "Team Builder" (1 for the 2v2 competition and 1 for the 4v4 competition) specifically for this situation. Team Builder will begin 30 minutes before the event.
