Dropping brawl would probably save a lot of headaches. Should be fun either way!

If there was a dislike button I would hit it :(

Same thing to lado. Better to drop pm or melee than brawl.

Also is there doubles for brawl at this event? The rule set seems to imply that there will be but the schedule does not have it.

I think you misread my post lol. I was saying drop everything else and leave Brawl, because clearly dropping events saves trouble for running a tournament.

There are no doubles for brawl because there isn't really going to be alot of entrants for brawl anyways. Plus, there's already 5 entrants.

pools is where you do a round robin and you play like maybe 3-4 people (depends on size of the total entrants) and it determines your seeding in bracket. Like if you get 1st seed you're gonna get an easier bracket than others.


It's possible that not everyone will be able to move onto bracket. For example, if there's 5 people in pools and only top 4 can move on, then the 5th guy won't be moving on. The term is called "drowning in pools"
