POWER RANKINGS
In each game, players earn ranking points based on how they place in the bracket. There are three meets in Winter Series 2016, and points are dispersed as follows:
1st = 9pts
2nd = 8pts
3rd = 7pts
4th = 6pts
5th = 5pts
7th = 4pts
9th = 3pts
13th = 2pts
17th and Below = 1pt
The Top 4 point earners for a game will earn an invitation to compete in a Championship Round Robin for prizes and glory. If there is a tie in points for Top 4, then all the players who have earned the necessary points will also earn an invitation to the Championship Round Robin.
Meet 1 of each series is randomly seeded, and then considerations are made for where players live. Meet 2 and Meet 3 begin using the power rankings to seed players in the bracket. Considerations are still made for where players live, but ranking points are more important. Players who have no ranking points, and join mid-series, receive a bottom seed and are inserted into the bracket where they fit. Considerations are made for where players live, but again the ranking points are more important.

CHARITY
Winter Series 2016 will be supporting the AbleGamers Foundation. Here is a short snippet of what they do:
“With a three-step approach, AbleGamers works and advocates on behalf of the disability community to increase the accessibility of video games and to achieve further inclusion by those who need special considerations.”
Over the course of Winter Series 2016, PowerUp will ask that you, the players, be great #FGCitizens and make monetary donations to AbleGamers that fit within your budget. Any amount is welcome, and we will keep an official tally for donations. Please show us a copy of your donation receipt, with only name, date and amount donated visible, and we will add your donation to our total. Let’s see how far we can go in support of AbleGamers!
