[May 31, 2014] Rains of Castamere II: Melee and PM Monthly (San Antonio, TX)

As in what are pools? Pools is a format in which contestants are split into smaller groups and only the top players from the pool will be seeded into a double elimination bracket. With a small enough group it's usually done in a round robin style, ensuring that everyone who enters the tournament is guaranteed more matches than a strait double elimination tournament (only guaranteed 2 sets). The only downside is that pools requires more resources (time, setups, etc).

round robin?

We are playing straight bracket this tournament. I used to like that idea of more tournament matches, but considering my events tend to be more smash fest then tournament, I thought it wiser to just let people have more time for friendlies. I do have plans for things like redemption brackets, but at the moment I need a good base line run to know how fast I can run things, and therefore how much I can afford to run, because 4 events with high level player cross pollination hurts time a lot.

 

[RedGamer]

Also straight bracket saves time, which will generally mean longer lunch breaks, more friendlies, possibly more events, more downtime, more JF getting buzzed and acting goofy with PK, etc.

LAST MINUTE UPDATE FOR ANYONE ATTENDING RAINS OF CASTAMERE III:

I found out that the guy who was going to open the venue for us early won't be in that day so the new earliest time will be 12:00PM! If you show up before then you will be sitting around!

A third event was planned for AFTER the first two events finished.
If we finish early, then P:M doubles might happen.

The PM videos from my setup have been uploaded. Without seeing the bracket, there are several ??? in titles for players I don't know. If you know someone with a ??? in a video, please comment.
