If they were able to get another two PC's and stretch it to 7 hours, and if we assumed that a best of 3 takes on average an hour (maybe conservative), they have the time for not just two groups of 4, but all-play-all. that's 28 series, so you need 28 hours of PC time - you have 14 hours, so if you have an extra couple of PC's to play two series at once, you're fine. Play the final between the top two on the Sunday and bin some of the showmatches. that it's best of three is not so bad as any given series will not knock you out | ||

Gods forbid you're paid to fly around the world playing starcraft and getting shots to win more money in a single elim 8 man event than you can after a whole MLG. Woe is me, life is so unfair. | ||

Random Drawing? lets try to do the math: there are 3 protoss in 8 players, which adds up to a probabilty of 3/8 * 2/8 for a protoss mirror matchup. that is 9.3% on the first draw, thats not too shabby. assuming we are in the "it did not happen" case, we still have 2 protoss left in 6 players. so add to that 9.3% a 2/6*1/6 chance that the mirror was drawn on the second try, which is a 5.5% chance. adds up to almos 15% of a protoss mirror. | ||
