Thx for all that participated! See you next week!
This was also a general test of a tourney livecast wich worked pretty well despite the upload speed which will be fixed next time.

A note for futher TDs directing tourneys: dont use Challonge for swiss style.. it's just a very very bad idea.

Why?

Can we have the link of the tree please?
And why didn't you like Challonge? I think it's very good, you can even allow players to check in results and upload replays by themselves.

A note for futher TDs directing tourneys: dont use Challonge for swiss style.. it's just a very very bad idea.

Why?

- it's very hard to change the slots of the no shows
- it's doesnt seem to always do the best matches in oder to prevent a tie
- every round need results in order to be ended

Can we have the link of the tree please?
