Due to the complaints the position choosing format has changed. Unfortunately, the amount of equal positions compiled are limited where we can only provide this for the next single-elimination round meaning the double-elimination rounds will be completely random positions.

Here's how it works:

As close as possible to the start of the match a personal message from me (or someone else if possible when I'm unable to be online at that given time) with the three positions will be sent to the two players. This will give minimal time to analyze beforehand if any eliminating the preparation issues of the first round.

@CyberShredder and @The_Human_Paradox are the first pair to undergo this set-up.

It is still the same process of backing out after a pair of games, just each pairing will have completely different positions.

@Ben_634 The rules only are effecting the second round and forward. I never changed the rules for the first round to keep it fair for every game played in such a round.

From the Double Elimination First Round and forward, the positions will be completely random. No need for me to give you positions except for one remaining match!
