Would anyone that didn't make round 2 like to play in an 'unofficial' losers' bracket?
Perhaps that would be frowned upon?
Feedback desired!

Sounds fun. You have 19 warlocks who would qualify, and perhaps you could even let in lokiv, emrys, and anyone else who was too late for the tourney.

Woo-hoo! Official blessing!
I am willing to organize the loser's bracket. To keep things simple, since we will end up starting after the primary tourney and I don't wish for us to run way past the main event, the loser's bracket will be open to the first sixteen warlocks to register.
The format/rules for matches will be the same as for the main event, with random seeding determining initial matches, and a (at most) three game format.
But wait, there's more! I will even send the victor a nice Vermont based prize! Unless they would prefer they not have strangers mailing things to their home. Up to them.

I'd recommend a one game format. While some of the non-qualifying warlocks play quickly, the average speed among them is dramatically slower than the average speed of the 16 who moved on. With a 3 game format you'll likely finish months after the real tournament.

Rycchus: I'm going to reserve spots in the tourney for folks who did not make it into the second round of the main tourney. Hope you understand.
Perhaps I'll only get eight folks for this anyway. We'll see.
Slarty: Good point. I hate to go to just a single match though. I'll think about it.

Okay. I assumed this was as was suggested before, to "determine" 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th... 35th. Luck to all

I should rename the tourney the "Second round challenged" tourney.

I'd like to enter. I missed the wild card (no hard feelings, I wasn't among the two best 3rd place finishers anyway), so this is my shot for fame and glory!

Eh, why not. I'm in, as long as it's single elimination type.
