The deadline for the first round of matchups will be June 17th (of this year, please) :whis:
Yes Dave,
I've been in Montana for 32 years and have seen it snow in every month of the year, although July and August are relatively infrequent :rolleyes:
Having spent 25 years of my early life around Yuma, Arizona and northern Mexico, I prefer the cool-dry over the hot-dry. No air-conditioning required where I live, but a heavy duty heating device is a nice option
I also spent 8 years near the beach in San Diego and must admit that the weather was consistantly nice, but boring :cool2:
How can one truly appreciate the good without the bad, the moral without the immoral, the beauty without the beast :chin:
to all.
Pat
This "new" style of tournament could not have been run without the generous assistance of Scud (Dave).
I like the concept in that many tournaments die of boredom because they drag on forever and those that are not in contention after a couple of rounds find their enthusiasm turn to drudgery (spelling)?
In this tournament, you either have a chance to win it all or you are eliminated.
Hopefully, that will maintain interest among those that continue to be in the hunt.
Furthermore, your efforts are rewarded with a tournament participation badge even though you may be eliminated after four games, but not if you quit!
If this catches on, I can see further bracket tournaments with more than 16 participants. 16 is an optimum number because of bracket balance, but 18 or 20 or 22, etc. could compete with a first round that doesn't include all players. Sort of a pre-tournament qualifier and some participants wouldn't be playing every round.
The nice thing about the bracket system is that if a participant drops out, I don't have to find someone to replace them. The remaining player simply wins the round and advances to the next one.
My best,
Pat
