It's a thought, however I'm still worried that time is an issue because once you get into BO3's and beyond it becomes quite possible for sets to take well over an hour and not everyone has 6+ hours they can just be waiting around to play there games.

If you can't fill all 32 spots and start accepting D players, I'd be more than willing to play. I'm incredibly bad, but I'd probably be fun to watch and laugh at

I wish I could participate in this. GL to all involved.

I think L_Master has the right of it doing bo1's. bo3s could get all spread out over hours and difficult to coordinate, doubly so since he would be casting and coordinating.

Haven't been C- in a long time and I'm pretty bad now. Can I participate or do I need to get D+ again?

My suggestion is Bo1's till Ro4 with Double Elim. Ro4 onwards is Bo3. Start casting from Ro4 and then just cast whatever pops up earlier than that as long as it doesn't dig into time. Might take a few hours at most.

Otherwise you get too much variance. Last tourney a couple of decent players got knocked out because some D- guy went random and cheesed every game, its really not fun to be on the receiving end of that stick (I ended up knocking him out, but it was a terrible game and I didn't enjoy it).

So I barely made C- last season, more off of luck than skill. Only had a 30% win rate, played a lot of motw, and went on a win streak just as the season ended. Any chance I could still play?
