DC Invitational

Introduction

The DCI, or Diplomaticcorp Invitational is a small, two-round tournament that was established in 2006 by Stephen Lytton (Deathblade_penguin).

The idea was to invite the top players to a game of Diplomacy - where the best of the best will face off.

Now in its 3rd year, the tournament has expanded. In 2008 there are 2 rounds consisting of 10 players. These players are some of the best, active and loyal players in diplomaticcorp dating back to the foundation of the club.

Invitations

The players are invited to play based on their game stats, including number of games, solos, percentages of solos, number of draws, percentage of draws, seconds, NMRs and of course Civil Disorders. There is also a provision to include some member choices, as well inviting the winner of the Winter Blitz, and the best "new player".
