Renth better still be teaming with me. I hope to god that we get the honor of knocking Queenie and SpeedN out of Winner's bracket. It'd be better than watching some other team do it. Like...ninjabox!

Hey guys,

Just a reminder that the more setups we have the more friendly matches, money matches, crew battles, etc. we can have.

So PLEASE bring one if its at all possible that you can.

Noob Testament always holds it down with a setup and this time wont be an exemption.

Blankuser no controller Johns, I'll bring an extra one if you wanna give it a shot, if you like it you can use it for the tourney.

Edit: Double elimination means that they're gonna be two brackets, winner and loser, you stay in winners as long as you dont lose a set out of 3 matches and then you get a second chance in losers bracket (if you lose a set in losers bracket you're eliminated), so if you beat everyone in loser bracket you will eventually play against the person who won the winner bracket. The person who comes from loser bracket will have to win two sets and the one from winner only has to win once to get 1st.

Okay so lets say 32 people enter the tourney after the first round 16 people go to the winners bracket and 16 to the losers bracket right??

and if so how will you get the people that lose in the 2nd round in the winners bracket to the losers bracket if its already organized??

get what i mean??

People who've lost one match stay in the losers bracket. They don't move to the winners bracket just because they won a match IN the losers bracket. They keep going through the losers bracket until they lose, which means they're out of the tournament, or until the only person left is someone from the winners bracket.

Here's an image of a 32-man double elim bracket.

The middle boxes are the original bracket. The left side is for one-time loser, the right side is for people who haven't lost.

you should just download tournament maker 2.1 or whatever from downloads.com and make a phony double elim bracket to see how it works. like in the losers bracket they have extra lines connected to the loser bracket for the players from the winners to go to. like if you lose in the 2nd round of winners, you would play someone in the 2nd round of losers bracket. your name just jumps across the bracket to the other side into one of the extra connecting lines. its hard to explain. lol, seriously though, just download tournament maker, and make a fake tourney with some fake names and just start letting people win and lose to see where they all go. that will answer ALL OF YOUR QUESTIONS!!!!!!!!...peace
