Okay, at least I am not the only one intimidated by this.It's top TWO??? Wtf, Chibo you should really change this that's a bit much.
He is probably changing it based on the number of people.Yeah, what the hell's with top 2? Did you take it into account that good players from ****ing Texas and Montreal are coming? Hell, Reflex is driving 14 hours from Alabama. <_<
im not on that list and i beat 3/4 of the top players in that region last tourneySo if there are 32 pools, all of the following players probably need to be split up. From what I've seen, these guys are the top players of their region and putting two of them in one pool would probably be them automatically taking those two spots.

That's 25 players right there. If those are 25 pool leaders right there, then 7 more have yet to be determined. And that means that another 32 players all have a chance to get into the bracket.
So it will probably be tough to get in, but as far as death pools are concerned...they probably will be avoided most of the time.
Swiss...200+ ppl at the tournament (iv been using 200 for all my estimations). how do i eliminate down to 64 or fewer for a bracket?
lol it was just a general outlook. I made it in like 3 minutes...I even forgot meep. Sorry meepanthony do you know how biased that lists is...
1st round of pools should be 16 man pools top 6 advance then 2nd round of pools should be something like 12 man pools and top 4 advance into the brackets.
2 of the best ideas I have seen in this thread.gigantic bracket would be pretty beastly.
its cool im like the least known.lol it was just a general outlook. I made it in like 3 minutes...I even forgot meep. Sorry meep
Make THAT HAPPEN!One HUGE bracket. I wish I was there if that were to happen..
XD yeah that clip was really really old.lol co18 i'm apparently in your combo vid. too bad you can't come to this so i can money match you xD
I brought up the point that pools are supposed to seed people, not just knock people out lol. I have a ton of experience with 100+ person tournaments and helping with pools >_>. I've actually never been to a brawl tournament that I wasn't the pool leader in I think >_>...wait..I don't remember for FAST lol.good point to whoever said it about seeding. i kno were obviously doing it for seeding, but that makes sense more now that i think about it. we would only have 2 ranks of seeds, which doesnt help much at all... hmmmm....
ok im really going to shoot for the 2 rounds of pools (1st round - 32 pools top 3 adv, 2nd round 16 pools top 3 adv), going to the 48 person bracket cause that makes 4 skill levels. the 1 2 and 3 seeds, and the 16 byes as 4th seed. thats some seeding right there.
top 3 advancing from a pool of 6 or so ppl is good, which is eliminating just over 50% of the ppl
ok yea thats officially what im aiming for. as for running pools, like the first round with 32 of em, itl be like this.
u need to get pools done fast cause if they dont ppl get bored and dont do their matches. so it will be done in 2 waves. this is assuming we have 32 tvs. i will announce the first 16 pools and they will all play with 2 TVs per pool. this will run fast. first wave finishes, 2nd wave starts. this would run faster than all 32 pools playing at the same time with 1 tv per pool. good stuff.
as for the livestream test im gonna hook everything up in like 5 min, so maybe like 20 min from now or something itl b rdy
Do it Chibo.....Huge bracket with no pools = more fun and probably the same speed, if not faster.
