tournament rescheduled for:
Monday July 2, 10 PM eastern
Efnet IRC channel #ggpoA2

Now that the server can hold plenty of people and the crashing problems are over with, I'm hoping a lot of people can show up for this tournament. Last time due to crashes the turnout was a bit low and the crashing slowed things down... everything should be working perfectly this time.

This is going to be a FAST tournament with no delays and no timewasting.

To sign up, send me a PM on here or a message on IRC. The brackets will be ready at 10:00 and things will starting right away, so show up on time if you don't want to start in the losers bracket.

Rules:

- standard double elimination tournament, best 2 out of 3 games
- brackets will be posted for everyone to see, and updated after each round of play
- winner reports the results to me by /msg on IRC
- if players can't connect at all, the game will be decided by rock/paper/scissors

Each round of games in the tournament will take 10 minutes, which is plenty of time for 3 games. If someone goes AFK and their match isn't started within a few minutes, they will be given a loss.

A new round of games should be starting every 10 minutes, and the plan is for the tournament to be at the finals in about 90 minutes. I know the worst thing about tournaments is waiting around bored, wondering when your next match will be... I wanted to run a tournament that cuts out all of the delays and runs things as quickly as possible.

I'll try to make it, but I'm going to be at the tournament out on LI, so I dunno if I'll make it in time. =\

Questions. Is there a cap on this tournament? Can people sign up last minute?

There's no cap, and there will definitely be last minute signups. It only takes a couple of seconds to add a name to the bracket so I'm ready for last minute stuff, and it won't delay the tournament.

i'm guessing that this is all national or possibly international tourney meaning that there will be bad connections amongst players. So those horrible laggy matches must be played in order to advance?
