Ya u should probably wait to make the bracket till like Friday night or right b4 tourny starts, that way no shows don't really fuck it up.  Although I appreciate the effort.

Also starting Weds night/thurs morning you should ask everyone to confirm their participation that way we can have a close estimate by Friday night.

Persuade chimed in while I was typing so yet another reason we should wait on making the bracket.  Cause if we lose some people then its a much cleaner bracket, although I hope as many people as possible can participate.

Plus more people could sign up.

Make bracket 15 min before like blizzard does for their online tourneys.

Yes yes, I know they don't know who the players are until 15 min before, but that's not the point.

I mentioned this a month ago on page 1 because rkk is west coast biased.  But no one listens to persuade.

Well, I can just slide people down the brackets and simplify it if people no show.  I'll PM for confirmation as was suggested.  My aim was to provide people some ahead information on who they may play and what matchups to brush up on! Also would have adjusted the time if people had complained but only one comment on original post and it said "idc about 6am" so, sorry seksi I hope you wake up it will be less fun if you aren't there! ^_^  At this point I can't make it any later due to my own scheduling conflicts so its set in stone =/

It's better if you don't let people practice a matchup or for an opponent this early though.  Because that player might not show up, someone else moves to their spot in the bracket and you just wasted 8 hours of orc vs human training for nothing.

Trust me bro just submit a bracket Saturday morning when we all show up, or Friday night at the earliest.  We appreciate the enthusiasm, but it just doesn't work that way. 
(I adminned zotac for 3 years, just cause we had 480 people register usually only 250ish would show up)  Bracket gets made after check in, EZPZ
