ICCT3: Irish Farmer's Market Edition
Introduction
The Irish Circle Clicking Tournament or ICCT, is a tournament series that is focused on different and interesting gimmicks each iteration, in comparison to the Irish Community Cup which focuses on traditional 1v1 or 2v2 style tournaments. For the third iteration of ICCT, we've decided to go for a similar style tournament as the o!MS line of tournaments, otherwise known as the osu!Mercenary Shop tournaments hosted byThis style of tournament introduces the element of an auction to the tournament, where captains assigned by tournament staff will be able to purchase players for their team, which will then participate in the tournament. This system will be further elaborated on and explained in the next few sections.

Auctioning System
Due to the nature of this Tournament, there is a unique system in place. This system is the Farmer's Market Auctioning System.How does this system work?
Once signups end, as well as all players are screened, 8 captains are selected by Tournament Staff which will participate in the Farmer's Market Auction. The criteria for the selection process of the captains includes:
- Overall Tournament Experience
- Past ICC and ICCT Result History
- Overall skill of the Player
After the 8 captains are selected, a budget of 5000$OIC is assigned, where $OIC is osu!Irish Coin. This currency will be used to buy Players in the remaining Player Pool, to assemble their Team which will partake in the Tournament.
After having bought 2 Players (as this is a 3v3 Tournament), the Farmer's Market Auction ends and the Tournament moves to its final stage.
What are the auction's rules?
There are a number of important rules that dictate how the Farmer's Market Auction is ran. Here are the following rules:
