Would be nice if Alex posts a news bulletin about this tournament. Fill it up with some much-needed fodder.
I thought I was the fodder
I'm hoping that 3 more people don't sign up who are higher ranked than I am, otherwise I'll be seed 16 and Pharmafan will be seed 17, and let's just say I don't want to play against him in the opening round

Since Alan signed up, you get to play me in group play! I'm glad that group play takes the top 2 from each group.

Yeah... sticking the top 5 in the same group is just starting to seem like a better and better idea..... :X

Awpertunity/Torbreck,
What would you think about doing round-robin between the final 4 instead of eliminations? Here's a little comparison for the final 4:
Code:
- elimination w/ 3rd round-robin
matches 4 6
matches/player 2 3
rounds 2 1This helps remove some of the seeding bias for those final players. It should also be faster since all of these games can be in parallel.

Haha wow. I was actually already planning on that just didn't confer with torbreck yet. The brackets I made are actually made to be like that lol.

Yep - sounds good to me

But if it's a round robin, we don't get to see one awesome match. I always liked having the two best players going toe to toe for all the marbles.
RE: 2014 Outwitters World Cup! [Registrations Open] - Torbreck - 12-17-2013 11:06 AM
Yeah - that is a good point - having a grand final over 5 matches was the idea for the grand finale with a big pot at the end.... let me confer with Awpertunity and we'll get back to you.
