Introduction
Welcome to the third edition of TWC: LMS (Last Man Standing). Nwolf and I are excited to bring you a brand new iteration of TWC: LMS. This time, we are hoping to improve on past mistakes and also bring you a cleaner, more fun, less confusing and overall better product than even before. TWC: LMS 3 will hopefully be our best tournament ever!

For those of you who are just joining us, let us explain what TWC: LMS is. It is an annual spin-off of the traditional Taiko World Cup, with a twist! Rather than being team score versus team score, each team will fight to survive in a 3v3 (depending on the number of people, we’ll get to that) environment. Each team selects a song and plays normally, but the player who scores the lowest is eliminated, think of it like dodgeball!

Me and Nwolf have been working very hard to bring this tournament to the next level. We hope to provide a quality experience to all players, both new or old. Every skill level has a shot, and we hope that more people than ever can sign up and enjoy the tournament with us. We welcome you warmly and with open arms to the Taiko World Cup: Last Man Standing 3!

Registration:

This time there are two ways to register!

You can either sign up as team (refer to “Tournament Registration”) or as an individual player! If you choose to do the latter be warned that it is not guaranteed that you will end up in a team! We will try to add you into an already existing team of your country or form a (bi-)national team out of several individual registrations.

In both cases you can register by PMing Backfire or Nwolf! Make sure the title of your PM is “TWC:LMS Registration” so we have an easier time processing through all!

  • 3.1.1: If less than 32 teams arrive, the grouping will be set up differently.
3.2: Each team from each group will face all the other teams once.

3.3: Rankings of each group are determined by sorting the results of each team's performance in the following priority:
  • 3.3.1: More Matches Won.
    3.3.2: Have higher {(the number of maps won) - (the number of maps defeated)}.
    3.3.3: Most maps won.
    3.3.4: Winner of the rematch.
3.4: The top 2 teams of each group will move on to the Knock-Out Stages. (depending on the grouping)

3.5: Following stages are Knock-Out Stages. This means that the winner moves to the next stage and the losing team gets put into the loser brackets.

3.6: Winning condition: In all rounds, you need to knockout all players from the opponent team. The lowest scoring player of every played map gets knocked out from the match (or lose a life). The team that loses all players first loses the match.
  • - In Group Stage, everyone has one life.
    - In the Round of 16 and the Quarter Finals, one player receives a 2nd life. The team can decide on their own who this may be.
    - In Semi Finals, a second player receives a second life.
    - In Finals and Grand Finals, all three players are given an extra life.

4.2: Each team is allowed to select one warm-up map.

4.3: Map selection will alternate between each captain selecting a map out of the map pool. Each captain must use "!roll" once in #multiplayer to determine which team selects and bans first. Highest score will mean first pick and also first ban.

5.5: The NoMod bracket will be played with no mods activated.

5.6: The Hidden, HardRock and DoubleTime bracket will be played with the respective mods activated.

5.7: The FreeMod bracket will have FreeMod activated. Every individual player can pick Hidden, HardRock or no mod at all. You may only have one mod activated, not both.
  • 5.7.1: The amount of the players left per team determines how many players need to activate a mod. If three players are playing in a single team, two of them must activate a mod. If two players play, one must activate a mod. If only one player plays he is allowed to play without mods.
5.8: The size of the NoMod bracket will be 4 for all pools.

Im drawing a line, please no more "Japan and Taiwan" teams, there are way too many of you signing up and we don't know how to deal with them, because there cannot be 5 taiwan teams. Bi-national teams are for countries without players, NOT super-country teams. You can have sort of mixed (like 2 japanese and 4 taiwan) but you also must realise there is already a bunch of people we aren't putting on the team list because of these mixed teams problem.

For the seeable future, that is. There is still some time left after all, maybe we can change this stuff and get things proper, but otherwise, I want to point out only to japanese and Taiwan players, please communicate with your fellow players so we don't have to tell anyone unnecessary "no we can't accept you"s :( I want us to have fun, but like 10 japanese and taiwan teams is going to be hard to balance.

With that said, we DO have a plan for countries with more than A and B teams. If your country has more than 2 teams, you will face off on the weekend before groups stage in a modified finals-level pool to determine who is the overall strongest two countries. This is simply for balance, no hard feelings, we had planned this system in advance but with so many people signing up, it is imperative that I tell you this. We will announce the pool for those matches sometime soon.
