2026 Tenth Annual GEMPC (also Batmouse's 10th Annual GEMPC) was the Players Committee online match-play championship on GEMP in the Open format. Play ran May–July 2026. The Players Committee results page is dated 4 July 2026 (updated 16 July 2026).[1]

Patrick Johnson (also Pat Johnson / Pmj) won the Finals over Drew Lichtenstein. Sam Tashima finished third; Jarad Konsker fourth.[1][2] Johnson also finished #17 at the 2026 Retro GEMP Match Play Championship (Premiere to DSII).

The PC article listed the Round of 64 by seed, not by finish. Finish numbers below are reconstructed from the Challonge single-elimination bracket, working backwards from Johnson as Finals winner. Within the same round of elimination, players are ordered by original seed (lower seed number first). Challonge still showed the Finals match as open (progress 98%) when captured; Johnson is recorded as champion from the PC Top 8 list, the championship YouTube matches, and that reconstruction.[2][1]

Finish from Challonge elimination round, then seed. Top 8 Dark/Light cells use the Top 8 zip (those lists can differ from the Round-of-64 pair — Johnson's R64 pair was Court Of The Vile Gangster / Watch Your Step).[1][2]

Missing from the GEMP zip / PC list

Recorded here so the field is not silently shortened:

  • No GEMP import file in 2026 Gempc.zip: Matt Wadden (Challonge seed 29, finished #28). PC listed Court / Luke Saga for him with no attached list.
  • Play-in (Round 1) on Challonge, not on the PC published R64 and not in the zip: Vivik Kembaiyan (seed 62), Sean Hensley (65), Norman Hall (66), Joe Hosking (68). Adam Bott (seed 63) won a play-in then lost Round of 64; no zip file.
  • On Challonge Round of 64, not in the PC seed list: Alex Prodoehl (seed 51, finished #51). He also played the 2026 Retro GEMP Match Play Championship (Premiere to DSII) (#12).
  • Name: Charles Hickey (GEMP teacher). Challonge listed him as Charless Hickey; the Retro GEMPC table used Charlie. Same player.
  • Starting interrupt, not an Objective: Amar Banger and Robbie Hendon Light lists have Let The Wookiee Win (V) (PC labeled LTWW(V)). Banger's starting location is inferred as Naboo: Boss Nass' Chambers (exactly two [Light]; Kashyyyk is deployed by the interrupt). Hendon's list is all Kashyyyk locations, so the start site is not unique.
  • Challonge scores are often 0–0 (result entered without game count). Where YouTube posted a score, it is not copied here unless it was on the bracket.
