pools (consider u get a lot of ppl) would take us a while to get finished with...

just saying
The entire point of pools is to get it limited down to a manageable number of people so we don't have a super long tournament. It should take shorter as long as people actually get done and don't screw off (like one pool always does).

Especially if Shaeden forfeits all of his pool matches so he gets seeded vs Anther first round LOL

The way pools work is, you eliminate the REALLY poorly placing players (5th seeds onward), take the remaining top4 of each pool, and seed it so that 1st seed plays 4th seed, and 2nd plays 3rd. This is for the benefit of the 1st seeds more than the 4th seeds, since it guarantees they don't have a ridiculous matchup first round.

On the bright side, if you expected to go 2 and out in brackets, you get a lot more matches in through pools.

Bowyer, Vayseth was telling me that you should go to his DigiOps tournament this Sunday because there's a big turnout or something.

Alright guys, Tink can't make it =( Joe and his crew won't be out until late Saturday probably, but Overswarm and his entire crew will be coming out. No word as to who's staying where, but, it's shaping up to be one hell of a tournament.

Well looking at the turnout this should be a tough tourney.... I aint sayin I'm scared though!!!

I haven't smashed with anyone in a while so it'll be fun. Plenty of matches to be played, fun to be had.

Alright guys, I'm officially going offline now. Here's what I know:

Overswarm and his crew are coming, but I don't know if they're staying with me or not. Tink is not coming. Tournament starts at 8 pm, please show up between 6 pm and 7 pm if humanly possible. Please bring pillows and blankets as well as basic tolitries (towels, tooth brushes, etc). We are getting food, and we'll get it so please bring about $5 to cover the food and drinks for Staurday.

I will not be checking this board until Sunday probably.

Thank you and I'll see you all very soon.

People who have a Wii and/or a TV, especially for today, please bring them. It will be a huge help for us, and it'll keep things running more smoothly.

Panda, Vayseth, or someone, keep your phone on. If I call you guys early enough, I'll try to get there with some recording equipment for doubles finals or something.

I'm bringing my camera and tripod as well. Hopefully we'll get some good matches.

I don't think it'll be a problem here, but Ithink a good rule might be "by participating in this tournament you are allowing us to record your matches". In the future, if someone like DSF or M2K comes in for a big MW tournament, it would suck if they were like "no recording". :(

So yeah... You can put me and the rest of the Cincy crew on the "coming saturday, but not staying" list. I have acquired housing. I'll also be bringing a setup.
