Americano Stage Tournament

📖 What is it

The Americano Stage Tournament is a long-term championship composed of multiple events (stages). Each stage works like a mini Formula Rodeo tournament: partners change every round and points accumulate both in the single stage standings and in the overall championship standings.

⚙️ How it works

The system is simple yet very engaging:

• The manager creates the championship defining number of stages, players per stage and match duration
• For each stage, registrations open and players confirm their participation
• When registrations close, the stage is generated and works like a Formula Rodeo
• At the end of the stage, points are awarded based on final position
• Points are added to the overall championship standings

📊 Overall Standings

The overall standings track the entire championship:

• Total points accumulated across all stages
• Number of stages played and won
• Podiums achieved (top 3 finishes)
• Overall games difference

🏆 Scoring

The points system rewards final positions in each stage:

• 1st place: 25 points, 2nd place: 20 points, 3rd place: 16 points
• 4th onwards: 13, 10, 8, 6, 4, 3, 2, 1 points
• All participants earn at least 1 point
