Welcome to the Freaks and Friends (FAF) Super Summer Tournament!
FAF wants to celebrate its 3 years birthday and therefore we will invite you to a 7 point ROUND ROBIN tournament (everyone against everyone)!
Guests can register in our FAF league and take part in the tournament.

The tournament started on May 22nd 2025
The prize pot is filled with approx. 150 euros and we are also giving away non-cash prizes
50 Euro plus 20,000 Ladderbux Donation for 1st place
30 Euro plus 10,000 Ladderbux for 2nd place
25 Euro for 3rd place
20 Euro for highest points difference achieved
25 Euro for “lucky looser” (will be raffled among players who have played all the games but have not made it into the prize ranks)
Format: Round Robin
Match: 7 points each
Rating: winning = 1 point, loosing = 0 points
We will split into two groups if there are more than 16 participants so that there are no more than 15 rounds. Preliminary round with 2 groups and after that upper top players for a final round.
RULES:
-
Minimum 2 matches per week to play
-
Since the tournament will take up to 2 months, we ask the matches to be played as soon as possible avoiding “wins by forfeit” at the end of the tournament. If you have problems
-
playing your matches (vacation, illness, accident …) please get in touch with the tournament management.
-
The match results are to be reported by both the winner and the loser including the final score of the match (including points).
Correct reporting: “player x won over player y by 7:3 or player x // player y (7:3)
The score is IMPORTANT for the final result! A screenshot would make our work easier!
Do not report on the ML page. -
Reporting can be done either by E-MAIL or by WHATSAPP or by Messenger (see contact details below)!
For the placement applies :
1. winning points (winning = 1 point, loosing = 0 points)
2. match score - points difference.
In the event of a tie in the prize ranks, a 7-point elimination match will be held; all other ties will be scored ex aequo.
All matches that are listed in the table can of course be “pre”-played.
- The page / table will be updated every Sunday!
Code of Conduct / fair behaviour:
Please avoid “winnings by forfeit”. This means to report a win although the match wasn’t played or wasn’t played correctly (e.g. doubling to 4 and then giving up gammon / or deliberately forgetting a checker in the opponent's home board to lose 3 points at once or similar).
To avoid such things, all games must be played in our BG-Freaks and Friends room, where the game can be replayed via matchlog in case of suspicion.
