iCM Forum Film World Cup – Season 5
by gaborovicmario-65212 | created - 01 Dec 2022 | updated - 4 months ago | PublicSEASON 5
The tournament started on December 18th, 2022. This is how it works:
- Round 1: 40 countries will be divided into 8 groups of 5 countries. #1 and #2 from each group proceed. Each match lasts for 5 weeks. Matches overlap 1.5 weeks.
- Round 2: 16 countries will be divided into 4 groups of 4 countries. #1 and #2 from each group proceed.
- Round 3-5: Quarter finals, semi finals and final. Countries compete one on one. Winner proceeds.
- Each match lasts for 2 weeks. Matches overlap 0.5 weeks.
There are few restrictions:
- The film must have <1000 checks on iCM.
- The film must be no longer than 3 hours.
- You may only use 1 film per director throughout the entire tournament.
Voters are obliged to watch all five films from a specific group in order to vote by a ranking system (1-5). The countries that end at 1st and 2nd place proceed to the next round. The ranking of the match will be decided using these rules:
- Ranked by lowest average ranking.
- In case of a tie between two movies, head-to-head determines the winner (how many people thought A>B and how many thought B>A).
- In case there's still a tie after the previous rule or there is a tie between three or four movies, most #1-votes determines the winner.
- Still a tie? Fewest #4-votes determines the winner.
- Still a tie? The match will have a 3 day extension (except when the tie is only between #3 and #4).
