I’m considering running an online tournament as an elimination style bracket. I’d probably add a caveat (to be determined) to avoid Mod Wins. Who’d be interested in playing?

I like elimination because I get all the credit for playing a tourney while only actually playing two rounds.

I refuse to play lackey. That said I'm more than happy to volunteer to TD the event as the current ratings king of the hill. I would consider it my beauty queen duties as wearer of the crown. :P :wink:

Since Paddy you are planning some socialist un-1E rules to avoid mod wins... :)
... how about making this a double elimination bracket of some sort. So that you play at least two games.

I can't find an option for that at present, but let me ask around!

Am I interested in the concept? Yes.

Am I interested in playing in a specific event? Maybe.

A lot depends on scheduling.

While it isn't an option in the system, we could run it as such anyway if that's what people fancy playing? Let me know your views!

I’m going to post up a tournament for this on Sunday. At present it will be single elimination, please let me know before Sunday if people want to play double-elimination style.

I want single-elimination, like the NCAA Men's Basketball tournament.
