Okie dokie, will we try elimination in a 2 week time period then, starting next week?

Tar.Aldarion

Sounds good to me.

Add me on one of the empty teams. Steam grizgrizzly.

cherryghost

Will do. I'd like a 3rd or 4th opinion on shortening the competition before we confirm

Might be an idea to run it over a shorter amount of time, my experience with online leagues is that people tend to not play/go AWOL with longer run times and it might fizzle out. Either that or set 2-3 day periods where specific matchups are supposed to happen and let the captains work out when suits to play each other in those time frames, just so it's a bit less laissez-faire.

Yeah, 2-3 days were any teams that show all get to play each other. More flexible then having specific matchups on set days.

Have to agree the intial format is far too cumbersome. Prelims, 2 groups then a bracket? far too many games.

Either make it a single (double elim if you want) bracket, or 2 randomly drawn pools with the top teams playing off in a final with everything BO1 till the final.

Tar.Aldarion

random double elim b01 and b03 finals sounds good.

cherryghost

Okie dokie, so double or single elim peoples? Double may take too long but honestly can't tell. If we got 2 games going at the same time the losers bracket can be played the same night maybe.

Right ladies and gents, we've now decided on double elimination! Thanks to Dec who did up the page. Teams have been randomly drawn and here's what we got!


We aim to start maybe midweek next week, 4 of the teams haven't really played together and hence need to gel a bit.

Tar.Aldarion

Good work! Brackets area good touch.

Great stuff lads. Maybe time for a new thread, OP with the bracket and team list etc?
