Somehow I won the bonus game! I am now terrified by the thought of 80 games at once (alongside all the others I am in anyway).

I will need to take three weeks off work to cope with them all!

How on earth someone actually runs a tournament like this...kudos to you!

Any chance you can send a note to the players in group 9 regarding speeding things up a bit.

Everyone has 24hrs to take their turn and some of them are doing just that. Nothing we can do. You, however can mention something in the chat although this may raise the conflict levels and you could be targeting yourself. Your call.

Four games to go in Group 1, 4 of 5 to make it now probably with three too far back.


Brandon, can you clarify whether the 1st Round groups will be randomly drawn based on seed, or be a progression from the two feeder qualifying groups as the bracket suggests (with seeding being of little relevance). Isn't particularly clear how the next round groups will be settled.

Seeding will be very important. The bracket will work as follows. The top four player from each group move on. Alpha group and Bravo group will merge into India group in round two. Then India and juliet will merge into Mike Group in R3. Top four players from Mike group move on to final. Seeding will determine where you are in the bracket, if your in a tough part of the bracket your going to have a hard time staying in the tourney

Still not really clear in terms of the round one game size and layout, i'd thought it would be;

4 from alpha, 4 from beta go into india

80 8-player(?) games

Top 4 move on

but from what your saying the layout would be different with seeding affecting the match compositions and different size games (some 4-player, 8-player, 2-player, maybe some pairs), or maybe seeding giving a point advantage to start with (#1 seed +20, #2 seed +10, #3 seed +5) to reward the qualifying score. You obviously know what your doing, and i'll pick it up soon enough, just not got my head around it yet.

Would also be curious how the groups with deadbeats would be affected in terms of your seeding. A 170 score in a 7 player group is far easy than in an 8 player group.
