Would it be better to seed the singles by the doubles results rather than by randomly? The idea of random seeding is scary to me. I know seeding by doubles results isn't the best way to do it, but it seems to be that it is better than by chance.

If we have enough set ups we could do Swiss parings instead of double elimination. Swiss is a lot more fun anyway

No clue how Swiss works.

And yeah @ Count's suggestion. Seeding by doubles results would allow for some sort of order; it's better than chance and having two amazing people play first round x.x.

Seeding by doubles would be cool, except for the people like me who won't be doing doubles lol! Anyway, 2 days!!!!!!! hype!!!!
Seed by doubles. Gets people to participate and if you dont then you get a crap seed. farrr better than random.

If doubles seeding can't be done, it would be better to fill in the brackets yourself by skill, seperating the best players. Again, better than random.

Xero, honestly, money johns? You've known and been pumped about this tournament for a couple of months. I live on my own, have a kid, try to pay for school, and I found a way to have some money for this tournament. Get off your butt and get stuff settled sooner or better yet go make some dough.

I don't understand? Why does st. louis (or anyone else) want housing? This isn't far away for anyone.
I'm not in St. Louis. ;) This is almost 4 hours away for me. I'd prefer not to have to drive 8 hours in one day, nor leave at 6 am.

REN!!!

You're my last hope, if you go can Ducky and I hitch a ride with you?

We'll be more than willing to pay $10 in gas each.

(We can probably make it down to Indianapolis if you'd prefer, but that's only if you're down with giving us rides in the first place :D.)

Cincy/other iffy people post your final word on if you're going in here asap!

Tomorrow I work until 5ish then I'm driving down to terre haute and staying at rose with a friend. I will be at the venue at about ten. Pretty sure I'm bringing a setup also.

LOL ybm I don't care about winning, I just care about having fun+getting better. And its not like you were guaranteed victory, ren is quite good and you know that I am not a cakewalk, either. Not to mention any unknown players that may come that are quite good.

In other news I am chilling in Terre Haute, can't wait until tomorrow. I'm hoping we can get some decent numbers, can't wait to chill with everybody :).

Well I care about winning...Because you get money that way. Renegade is good...but I am currently ahead when it comes to win ratio....He has yet to defeat me....But I will say Renegade is a talented player and He will win this on my behalf...If me and him would have teamed we would swept through that tournament like Hurricane Katrina ya dig. hehe Count you're good and I'll leave it at that...I'm hoping you get 2nd place...since Renegade is going to win it...But Anyway...I wish all my people the best of luck. and I will hopefully see you all soon...

Naaah, I would win this... if I could go.

But anyway, GO COUNT! I wanna see Count win, because Renegade is too good.
Thanks for the support, lol..I'm just hoping to play well I doubt I will win or even be in contention.

Did you talk to vamp? He lives in Indy and I just about guarantee he would take you. Look him up on AIB its not too late!! I have his phone number also if you need it.

Edit: YBM just get a job if you need money!!
