I'm going to give priority to those with the highest ladder rating, but of course you can always show up if you aren't in the 16 in the case that someone that signs up has decided to not attend the qualifier.
Also, sign ups will end strictly an hour before the tournament starts.
And another thing, the tournament will start at the precise time given. I will give 5 minutes of leeway and if you aren't there by then, I'm replacing you with the next person on the participant list. Do not care if you arrive at 16:06 GMT.
Whhaaaaattttttt!? The great thing about this tourney is how people of all levels play to participate. This is sadbom8nation.
But I get ya, probably take forever if it's open.
I wanted to chance get resistance and take his points, though
I definitely agree but I want to be able to do BO3 rounds for this tourney and so every "bracket grouping" on challonge should be expected to take 1h30 if you play all 3 games on average. This means that it would be 6 hours if the final and semifinal were BO3 as well, but those will be BO5 so you can expect a bit more expected playtime on those. Ultimately, the tourney should be projected to take 6-8 hours and I don't really want to risk it taking longer for fear of ruining the experience for players+viewers.
Hybrid was interested in hosting tournaments, so if he would host tournaments aimed at the 1000-1600 crowd on LotS offweeks, that would be great. Everyone could have something to look forward to, then.
