Don't watch it! It was an imposter Duncan who lost to Hayako! It wasn't me!! lol jk go ahead... :p Yeah, lets agree on a name, and I'll start a new thread, and then post a link to it in a reply to this thread. Any suggestions? Maybe the Rising League? Idk... And if someone could make a super awesome banner, they'll get props.

Unless you have all the details ready, I highly advise against making the official thread. It's frowned upon. I made a blog thread "Gold League Tournament?" and then a tournament thread "Gold League Tournament!" before everything was set up for me to make "[Gold] RISING Cup #1." Just some advice. Perhaps start with a blog post too?
Where and how do I post a blog thread?

so im guessing this tourney is again going to be gold and under, duncan even told me that earlier today. One concern i have about that is since its going to be a longer league type format, we do have the possiblity of some of our gold players being promoted to plat. Personally i think the "rule" should be if you are gold before the season starts, you can join. after that it dosent matter if you get promoted you can still play, does this seem fair?

Sure, as long as you don't get promoted to diamond . Meh, does this mean I can't ladder now?

Meh, i say if your game imporves throughout the season, so be it, plat, diamond, etc.
Maybe we'll all become better players through the thick of it

haha ok. I'll be plat again in < 2 weeks. Well, it depends on how much I get to play.

I can make a banner for this, and I personally think Rising League is a great name. Gold is a good restriction and as long as they're gold when the "season" starts then they're fine. If they move up to plat they should be replaced in the next tournament though.

Hey, count me in

Okay, so so far we have:
DuncanIdaho Karliath FlowandEbb Hybrid Hayako RTomas Chris Sevryn Fluffy1? (not sure if he's interested in just the cups or the league as well) razamanaz? (again, may be interested in just cups, not sure) LJJL? (not sure if he's in or out)
And of course, anyone in the previous Rising Cup who's interested, you're more than welcome to join. Thanks FandE for the banner/castings support, that will be awesome. Also, on second though, I agree, I now think 30 might be too big. If we keep it small, maybe everyone can learn each other's styles, and get to play everyone, rather than the division separation. I just thought that divisions would be necessary for lots of people, in order to keep this from going on for years :p See, I originally assumed since 32 were in the cup we could get all of them minus the noshow-dropouts from the cup interested, but perhaps that was a bit too optimistic, for I bet they would have responded by now if they were.
Also, Hayako pointed out an obvious miscalculation on my part. we need an even number of players or else not everyone will get a game each week. See, I was thinking, 15 people, that means each person plays 14 games (against the 14 other people), and yay! Sounds good! math fail... And I'm a statistician, too... 
:p

Fluffy1? (not sure if he's interested in just the cups or the league as well)

0. Other then the fact that 14 is an ugly number.
