As far as I can think of anything that didn't go well.. I cannot, I loved it.
It was a great tournament (though still not a fan of the stagelist
), but I kinda think it went really slow. I guess the huge breaks between everything was due time for friendlies, expecting more players and wanting to actually keep schedule... But then even schedule wasn't really kept and several events started about two hours late. I think the only exception to this was the singles bracket yesterday, which was somewhat on time.
Worst part was easily the break between singles pools round 2 and teams bracket. Why a dinner break 5 hours after singles pools started was even put on the schedule (with nothing in between and teams bracket starting yet another 1 and a half hour later) is just beyond me.
But yeah, great tournament, just wish you could have speed things along just a little, there was no reason to save all of singles bracket for the final day, when we could in fact probably even have finished it all saturday. Also slight salt for having to leave before the finals here (watched GFs on stream at the airport), but I generally think there was just a little too much time wasted, especially when we were told that there wouldn't be time for any kind of sideevent at all except for some small 30-mins or so thing. That afaik, didn't happen either.
Edit: Would've been cool to have been notified about the closest ATM being 40 minutes away (by foot) before we got there as well. (fortunately we had a ****load of free time on saturday to get there, the weather was great, and we got some food and exercise ;P)
