The Gorge Tournament has begun!
Beginning at 11am PST, all Steam DST players who play the Gorge can start competing for the best scores. The top teams will receive the following:
Gold - (Top team of 1 - 3 players): Exclusive Gold Portrait, Exclusive Gold Icon, and Every item introduced with The Gorge, including the Survivors Chest and the Belongings Chest.
Silver - (Next 5 top teams of 1 - 3 unique players): Exclusive Silver Portrait, Exclusive Silver Icon, and The Gorge Belongings Chest.
Bronze - (Remaining Top 100 unique Players): Exclusive Bronze Icon and 25 Gorge Chests.
All participants will receive a special participation reward. Players appearing in multiple teams will only receive the reward for the highest tier they qualify for. Some restrictions apply, see below.
This is going to be the first event of its kind, so we reserve the right to change things if we need to, or cancel due to unexpected complications.
We would love to do more things like this in the future, so make sure to give us your feedback!
[h1]How to Enter the Tournament[/h1]
In order to qualify for The Gorge Tournament, you must finish a match with these 4 badges:
[img=https://cdn.forums.klei.com/GORGE/tournament/victory.png] Victory
[img=https://cdn.forums.klei.com/GORGE/tournament/no_tributes_failed.png] No Tributes Failed

[img=https://cdn.forums.klei.com/GORGE/tournament/no_duplicate_survivors.png] No Duplicate Survivors
(NOTE: It is OK to have other badges as well.)
Then, if your account qualifies, your score will automatically be entered, and this badge will show up as well:

[h1]How Appeasement Points are Calculated[/h1]
Appeasement Points are calculated by adding up all the points from each snackrifice (see below), multiplying by 1000, and then dividing by the total number of seconds spent in the entire match.
Coin values are as follows:
[img=https://cdn.forums.klei.com/GORGE/tournament/coin1.png] 1 point per coin.
[img=https://cdn.forums.klei.com/GORGE/tournament/coin-2.png] 1 coin is worth 28 points, 2 coins is worth 84 points.
[img=https://cdn.forums.klei.com/GORGE/tournament/coin3.png] 1 coin is worth 98 points, 2 coins is worth 294 points.
[img=https://cdn.forums.klei.com/GORGE/tournament/coin4.png] 1 coin is worth 343 points.
For example, when the craving is matched:
Tomato Soup is worth 1×[img=https://cdn.forums.klei.com/GORGE/tournament/coin-2.png] + 8×[img=https://cdn.forums.klei.com/GORGE/tournament/coin1.png] = 28 + 8 = 36 points
Candied Fish is worth 2×[img=https://cdn.forums.klei.com/GORGE/tournament/coin-2.png] + 4×[img=https://cdn.forums.klei.com/GORGE/tournament/coin1.png] = 84 + 4 = 88 points
And say you escaped in 185 seconds using one Tomato Soup and one Candied Fish, then your match score would be:
(36 + 88) × 1000 ÷ 185 = 670 Appeasement Points
[h1]FAQ[/h1]
[b]What are the restrictions?[/b]
This tournament is Steam only, and only accounts that own Don't Starve Together can participate. Family Sharing "child" accounts will not qualify. Accounts must be in good standing.
[b]Where can I see my rank?[/b]
The players qualifying for the gold, silver and bronze rewards are listed in the Tournament section of the leaderboards (https://forums.kleientertainment.com/gorge-recipe-book/).
[b]What if I belong to multiple high scoring teams?[/b]
You will be rewarded based on the team with the highest score. If you qualify under multiple tiers, you will receive an award only for the highest qualifying tier.
[b]When does the tournament end?[/b]
The tournament ends on July 17th at 11am Pacific time. Winners will be determined and prizes will be distributed shortly thereafter.
[b]What about merch?[/b]
We wanted to give out merch as a prize, but the laws are scary, so we decided not to mess with that. If we get a lot of good feedback from this tournament, we'll look into how to go about physical prizes in the future.
