Because.

So I'm likely to be at this, although I'm probably leaving around 7, friends are going back to college and we're going out for wings and ****.

I will be doing quarter MM's at this. Get at me.

Roman we've run pools with less then thirty two on multiple occasions.

The point of pools is so that everyone gets their moneys worth and to help further seed the brackets.

I almost never see a reason to not run pools it encourages even the players whom don't have contention for spots in the top 5 to come out everytime because they get to have matches with a variety of players and have more matches then the usual get paired against a good player and then get into losers with a good player 2 and out shenanigans.

This is tomorrow Yeah!

Dave, from what people are saying about pools is that they want more matches in the tourney since they are spending money to get in. The reason is because they have to play everybody once and whoever gets the most points advances to the bracket. Where as if you just did double elim with no pool particpates would only get at least only two tourney matches.

Quick summary-The players want more for their buck!

I will obviously help out but since the employee's also help out it might take longer because they are new to the tourney scene altogether and it would make it harder for them to learn how things are done because you switched it up from the last tourney and the previous way is how there expecting it to be done. It's up to you but I am just happy with the fact that singles is first and teams is second.

I almost forgot you must remember the time constraint on us. If you think you won't be able to get the tourney done on time then go straight into double elim but if you think you can get it all done with pools and still be packed up to leave at 8pm then by all means go ahead. You have my support with your final decision.

**** yeah, swiss format. That would be so cash.

Also, would take so much time that doubles wouldn't happen.

What's the setup situation?

I'd be willing to give up doubles for the chance to play everyone at least once.

why would singles be first? that is *** backwards in relation to 99.9% of tournaments rofl

we'll be there by 12:30 as best we can anyhow. i'll help with seeding for pools if kev-bro wants (and we actually are doing them) since i know each and every person in attendance intimately. (really intimately)

The only thing that is changing is the fact that there is going to be pools. Please be there on time because we don't want to wait for people to show up.

Also I didn't think seeding was to bad, last time Kyu you were like the one anomaly in a well seeded pool :).

Haven't really had anyone have a complaint besides you. Not saying it isn't valid though ;) <3.

Gmoney, Hazzard, perhaps his girlfriend. That was all he mentioned.
