Apterous Masters
Countdown Online Masters, or COMA as it is jokingly known, is a tournament organised each February/March, and is a straight knock-out event between 8-16 players.
Format
Top players are seeded into the first-round draw after being judged on their skill at the game as displayed in both televised and off-screen performances, such as at COLIN or CoBris events, or in online competitions such as COOT or COGST. The unofficial Countdown ratings, maintained by Charlie Reams, are used to make decisions regarding who gets invited and who doesn't.
Players who decline their invitations will be invited again the following year, but will not be invited a third time if they decline two invitations in a row.
