Chapter 60 Go League
Shenda Campus Go League is a campus Go event sponsored by the Go Association. There are two stages: the main competition and the qualifying competition. There is no qualification limit for the qualifying competition. As long as there are four people, you can form a team to sign up.
The qualifying competition adopts a single defeat elimination system. The two sides of the game are drawn by lot. The winner enters the next round, and the loser is immediately eliminated. They can only wait for next year to come back.
In the end of the qualifying competition, there were four teams, together with the top eight of the last competition, a total of 12 teams, to participate in this competition.
The rules of the main competition are a single-cycle points system. Twelve teams are the eleven rounds before and after. The team that wins each round gets three points, and the team that loses chess gets zero points. Finally, the total score ranking is accumulated. The top eight can directly participate in the next round, and the last four teams with points have to re-participate in the qualifying.
The participating teams composed of students are usually unstable. There are often teams that can't gather the number of participants due to the graduation of players or other reasons, disband or withdraw. At this time, the lower-ranked teams can be replaced in turn.
If there are still less than eight teams, the shortlisting quota of the qualifying competition will be increased to ensure that 12 teams will participate in the competition.
"The Shenda Campus Go League has been held for more than ten years. There have been more than a dozen fixed teams that have been participating in the league, but there are new teams in the top eight every year. Maybe it will be us this year," Wang Xiyi briefly told Li Tianzong about the situation of the campus Go League, and the members of their team have also been determined. That is, the five people who are eating together now.
Li Tianzong looked at Liang Jialiang and Zheng Xiaoqian in surprise. If Sun Xiaoyong could play chess, he would not feel strange, but he didn't expect that Liang Jialiang, who played Warcraft all day, and Zheng Xiaoqian, who was particularly shy, would also play Go.
It seems that the current popularity of Go is not so high, is it? Li Tianzong was a little confused.
"Don't look at me, I'm a substitute, just collecting the number of people," Liang Jialiang saw Li Tianzong's surprised expression and immediately waved his hand.
Zheng Xiaoqian blushed and shook her head slightly: "I, I won't either."
Li Tianzong suddenly looked at Wang Xiyi speechlessly: "I just learned it, too."
There are only five people in the team, three of whom don't understand or have just started to learn. What other competition do they participate in? I'm afraid they will have to clean up in the first round.
"It doesn't matter," Wang Xiyi smiled and said, "There are four people playing four games of chess in each team game. If I and Sun Xiaoyong can win, even if you all lose, it will be a draw. At this time, it depends on the record of the main general. The winning side of the main player wins, so we still have a chance."
"That means, you must win chess," Li Tianzong knew such a rule for the first time. He looked at Sun Xiaoyong. Wang Xiyi is an amateur. Not surprisingly, there should be few opponents in school. The key to winning chess is Sun Xiaoyong.
Wang Xiyi shook her head with a smile: "In fact, it's not necessarily true. There are very few people playing Go now. It's not easy to find four people to form a team. There are also newcomers in many teams. If you study hard, you may win two sets."
Wang Xiyi is a Go team formed in the name of Class 091. It seems that she really wants to be a good monitor, but she can't find four students who can play Go in the class. In fact, except Sun Xiaoyong, no one has learned Go before.
There are a lot of people who can play gobang.
Since no one can do it, Wang Xiyi persuaded her best Zheng Xiaoxi to participate. They are often together. She has enough opportunities and time to let Zheng Xiaoqian learn to play chess, and she doesn't have to be at a high level. As long as she can deal with novices in the opponent's array, she can occasionally win one or two sets.
Li Tianzong said before that he wanted to learn Go and promised to learn chess from Wang Xiyi, which was naturally also taken into account.
Liang Jialiang volunteered. His reason was to advance and retreat with his two roommates in the dormitory, which was probably to have more contact with beautiful women.
All four of them were not enough. Wang Xiyi had no expectations for the two candidates as substitutes, so she readily agreed. In addition, she found another person to form four main forces and two substitutes, even if it was decent.
If such a combination wants to win chess, they can only expect two players who can play chess to win all the duels, and then rely on the main player to win the chess and win.
Even if Wang Xiyi is invincible, it is difficult for Sun Xiaoyong to guarantee that he will not lose a game. Once he loses, it means that the whole team loses chess, which is obviously not safe.
As for what Wang Xiyi said, it is also possible to win some pure new players. It is still possible to meet weak teams. If you meet those strong teams, there is definitely no chance.
What's more, since Li Tianzong participated, he was not ready to lose chess all the time. He wants to exercise his brain through the game, improve his chess power, strive to win chess, and win chess openly.
Instead of winning some pure novices!
The league is divided into two stages. Li Tianzong plans to improve his chess power as soon as possible by participating in the qualifying competition. When the game is held, he can really win the chess. The winning rate must reach at least more than half before it can be justified.
Go is not a popular sport, but in Shenda, the campus league sponsored by the Go Association, together with basketball and football leagues, is listed as one of the three most popular sports events among students. Especially after Ouyang Haixin took over the Go Association, the last Go League did a particularly good job.
Starting from next week, this year's Go League will start to sign up. There have been many posts discussing this year's league in the "Black and White Forum" sub-section of Shenda BBS.
The official "Black and White Forum" of the Go Association is also one of the best, most beautiful and most lively forums organized by Shen University students. This may be related to their president is a computer master, and these people who play Go are also more able to use their brains.
On the forum, in addition to paying attention to which teams can enter the top four this year and who can win the championship, girls are also paying attention to the four cool chess players known as "F4", including Ouyang Haixin and Li Changhao; and the boys are most interested in the only "Phoenix Team" composed of girls in the top four last year, and The ice beauty known as "ice phoenix" is cold.
There are also some people who post "hero posts" on the forum, recruit "masters" to form a team to participate in the league, and really put together several teams.
On Friday, because the weekend is approaching, the forum is more lively than usual. While browsing the posts, Li Changhao opens the background of the forum administrator, preparing to add essence to some posts, top valuable posts, or put the "hot" tag, and delete the posts of No River Crab.
Li Changhao took a look at the forum page and found that two posts were particularly popular. The number of clicks and replies far exceeded other posts, and they have automatically become hot posts.
When Li Changhao saw the title of one of the posts, it was very simple: "It was revealed that Brother Zong will participate in this Go League", and he immediately clicked in.
The content of the post is also very simple. The poster claimed that "according to reliable information", Brother Zong will participate in this year's Go League as a member of the representative team of Class 091. Because it is related to "Brother Zong", he is actually sought after by many people and scolded by many people. After posting for more than two hours, it has become a click and reply. Lead a lot of hot posts.
Li Changhao curled his lips disdainfully and began to sign up next week. Now there is such news. If someone didn't say it indiscriminately, it is likely that this guy will start to hype again.
Li Changhao is not clear about Li Tianzong's chess power, but the Go, especially the campus Go League, belongs to his territory. As long as Li Tianzong dares to come, he will naturally have a way to rectify this guy.
Li Changhao showed a gloomy smile on the corners of his mouth and pulled the page down. He saw many posts supporting "Brother Zong" and thought that "Brother Zong" must be very good at playing chess.
"The guy who lost to Brother Zong in the library last time, I heard that he is the vice president of the Go Association. Brother Zong can win completely. Who else is the opponent?"
"It's not just a complete victory, it's just a joke!"
"Others give way, Brother Zong is the most chic, directly let two and a half sets, the demeanor of a great god!"
"It was Gobang that day, right?" Some people raised questions.
Soon someone replied, "Gobang is so powerful, not to mention Go?"
Li Changhao's face became more and more gloomy, and it took a long time to breathe: Li Tianzong, I'm waiting for you to see if your Go level is as powerful as Go!
Li Changhao turned off this post and returned to the page of the topic list. At this time, the hottest post has been replaced by another hot post just now.
Li Changhao took a closer look. The title of this post actually also has "Brother Zong": the secret battle between the Go Association and the Computer Association and Brother Zong.
The name of the post is very eye-catching. Li Changhao clicked and saw the content inside. He was immediately shocked and almost couldn't help jumping up from his seat.
