This has a side effect of making the lower tier winners a bit of a surprise! This should avoid a ton of ties for lower tier placement. To get the 16 players for the closed tournament, I'll first pull the top 8 from the upper tier, then rescore players in the lower tier without considering those 8, then pull the top 8 from the the lower tier.

If the order matters, I may pick a tiebreaker puzzle during the bye week where I verify that everyone is good to play.

If that's still tied, randomly choose the order if they'll be in the closed tournament either way.

If all that's still tied, pick the player who got in the lead first.

Compare score if no participation points.

Points are based on how well you perform against everyone else and are separate for each tier: Some puzzles can be scored based on other things as well. Solutions will be scored on either cycle count, symbol count, or reactor count, based on the puzzle. Players can submit puzzles for both tiers if they like. However, with an upper tier comes a higher seed and a better chance to look better than everyone else at SpaceChem. Naturally, upper tier puzzles will be harder and be more likely to contain special victory conditions. Each week will contain 2-3 lower tier puzzles and 1 upper tier puzzle. The open tournament will have two tiers: upper and lower. Rounds should last a week, but I may extend one if a vacation comes up. The open tournament will consist of 3-4 puzzles a round over 8-9 rounds. The tournament is split into an open tournament, in which everyone can participate, and a closed tournament, in which the best from the open will compete for the grand prize. If you'd like a fresh perspective on the game, though, I invite you to check out these tutorials as I make them.

Others drag symbols around and, through trial and error, finally work out a beautiful, functional mess. Others tend to write down pages and pages of ideas for their solution before finally building it in-game. What interests me most about the game is how differently everyone approaches a challenge for some, they instantly get it and build a solution from scratch. This tournament is mainly an invitation to show off your own flavor of solutions. Though any solution is good enough to progress in the game, SpaceChem also has (or had) a graphical depiction of your standing in the leaderboards, showing how you compared against everyone else as a whole. * "I think we might have just received one of the year's best indie games in the first week of 2011.SpaceChem is a puzzle game about taking an open-ended problem and building your own path from point A to point B. * Indie Game of the Year at EDGE Magazine and Gamasutra/
