Play Keepers' Dissension: Unchained all month, and the five players with the most play time get a private match against one of the game's creators.
How it works
1. Play in October. Every qualifying minute you play in Private, Quickplay or Practice matches from October 1 to 31 (US Central time) is logged automatically.
2. Finish in the top 5. The five players with the most play time on the standings qualify for the final.
3. Beat a creator. On Sunday, November 8, each qualifier plays one of the game's creators in a private match. You get $10 for showing up and $100 if you win, and matches may be streamed.
What counts
A match counts once it reaches 6 turns and 5 minutes of active play, so quick resigns don't count. Idle stretches longer than 3 minutes earn at most 3 minutes. Practice (bot) matches earn up to 10 minutes each and 60 minutes per day.
Who can enter
You need a registered account: guest play doesn't count, and guest time doesn't carry over if you register later. Players must be 13 or older and live in the United States, Canada, Serbia or Australia.
Follow along
​The live standings and every player's match history are at maverickmasterminds.net/beat-the-creators, updated every hour. The team reviews the standings after October 31 and contacts the final five by email or Discord. Good luck, and see you on the battlefield!
