Losers' bracket?

[dni]

Oh, and sign up me too
I was ready to offer some kind of Second league match when the round 2 participations of First league is being clearer

[spleenboy]

ill try it, maybe ill actually win a match this time ¬¬

[Derfel]

Can we call it something else? Not the "Losers' Bracket"? I have a weak self-image as it is... this could put me over the edge...

Unqualified Warlocks Final Chance for Redemption?

Think about it, you could become UWFCR-champion!

[vermont]

Second Round Challenged?

And besides, we all know that the only reason we all lost was because we were throwing points to the guys on our fantasy teams.

And by the way, the "Unqualified Warlocks Final Chance for Redemption" totally reminded me of this Ultimate Showdown.

exactly, i could have possibly pushed xade out of tourney but i thought- wait a minute, he's in my dream team, i'll deliberately lose these next 3 50/50s in a row and forgot about the storm that could kill him...

[bzali]

So, when, if ever, does this start?

[vermont]

Good question! We currently have nine folks signed up. I was certainly hoping we'd get closer to 16, but so be it. I will close registration in roughly 24 hours.

Matches will be a single game to keep things quick.

A few players will be randomly selected to play a preliminary round match to get us down to 8, and then standard brackets will apply.

Current participants include, in order of registration:

• vermont
  
• morzas
  
• biologin
  
• laxen
  
• bzali
  
• derfel
  
• qnag5284
  
• dni
  
• spleenboy

Uh... I don't like the idea of non-registrants playing in this other bracket. Not that I'm elitist, but I think the folks that registered here are veteran/devoted enough to play a second round, right?

[vermont]

Derfel, by registration, I merely meant posting in this thread that they wanted to play.

If player's were not excluded from the main event for not having registered officially with ravenblack, then I don't see a need to do so here.

Or am I misunderstanding something?

[Derfel]

Sorry - I didn't mean "registered" as in paid up with RB. I meant people who didn't play in Round 1 of the Tournament.

[vermont]

Ah, sorry I misunderstood. We should just edit our last two posts to sound really insightful. Maybe I'll just copy a post of tali's.

I think everyone on the list did play in round one. I can check later to make sure.

[Rycchus]

I checked after Derfel said that. Biologin didn't, and your current open challenge does suggest you'll take any offers

[laxen]

well we do kinda need more players, im not sure i like the pre-qualification idea, it wd be much easier if we could get just a few more players...

[Derfel]

Or if we drop Biologin (sorry), then we'd have 8 players...?
