-- Tournament Format --

Each player will enter tournament with 10 lives. Each round players will be paired together on a randomly chosen machine and play a four-player game(or three if odd number). The number of people who beat you on that game is how many of your lives you will lose, example:

1st Place: Lose 0 Lives
2nd Place: Lose 1 Life
3rd Place: Lose 2 Lives
4th Place: Lose 3 Lives

After round is over, new pairings will be set up on another randomly selected machine. This process continues. Once a players loses 10 lives they are considered “dead” and eliminated from the tournament! So each round more and more competitors will die, and we continue this process until there is one survivor remaining, who then that survivor will be deemed the champion of Pin Death!
