Completely stolen from roman's RU Majors Signups (which is still open for some reason, made it easy to steal)
Welcome, Smogon, to the first edition of Ubers Majors! This is the premier edition of an annual Ubers Circuit Tour where you can test your mettle against the top players in the community. Unlike most elimination tours, where your opponent is a matter of chance, Ubers Majors ensures that every participant plays a broad swath of the tier's playerbase as you fight your way to the top.
The tournament is divided into two stages - a round-robin qualifier and an elimination bracket. During Stage 1, players will be divided into pools, where they will play every other member of the pool in a best-of-one round robin. High prolific players will be selected as 'Pool leaders' to ensure that each pool is as fair as can be.
At the end of Stage 1, each player will be ranked within his or her pool. The top two players of each pool will advance to Stage 2, where they will be entered into a single elimination bracket. The top 16 of Stage 2 will be awarded varying levels of Ubers Circuit Type A Points, as well as a small number of points for anyone who makes it to Stage 2.
