Seventeen people have signed-up. You're either going to have to wait until we get thirty-two, deny someone their place, or change the format.

Probaly just be a prelimenary round to get the numbers down to 16.

Propane Nightmare

We wont get 32 players and all of them play their games, stick with this till the end etc. Go with 16 players.

I guess. How do you decide who plays in that though? Just a random draw.

I dont know, but theres no chance we can get 32 players to stick with this to the end and play all the games, and I dont think many people want this to drag on for more than a week or 2 due to college/school coming back etc.

Maybe bump the number up to 20 or 18?

Also, emmetmcl if you want I can do the draw on a special website for these type of things and record it on my PC and upload it to youtube to make it a bit more professional ha!

Theyre wont be any shenagians also :P

20 people, make five groups of four. Play everyone once. Top two go through to the quarter-final.

Thoughts?

I think it should be 4 groups of 5 teams, to get 8 players for quarter finals

L'prof

Depends on the format, but there could be groups with less teams in them or early on there could be a number of teams given a bye to the next round.

obliviousgrudge

The format of this tournament will be posted tonight.

There won't be a group stage as I've run a tournament like this on another forum and the group stage was very hard to work.

I'll let you know more later.
