Alright heres the deal, everyone who was on the 42 person is in, in the event they can't make it: a substitute can be named, but D@RTH M@UL must be notified prior. (He's bracket guy)

Single Elimination

First round: Best of 3
Quarterfinals: Best of 5
Semifinals: Best of 5
Finals: Best of 7

I need some people to volunteer to be referees/officials to make sure there isnt laming or scripting, etc. going on.

JA,

I'm assuming that's what M@uL is doing.

Wouldn't it be more sportslike if the you just wrote the names down on some paper, shuffled and then drew two names?

Yeah, the times don't matter, however:
once the brackets are put out, it is your responsibility to find a chance to meet with your opponent. Also, I'm going to start things next week, so people will be able to fight the weekend before and not be rushed.

Hope thats clear.

And if true, we can just tell them not to follow persons, only be in free-ride mode (would be kinda hard to check what they were doing though....).

I didn't know following someone in spectate mode makes them lag. Is that really true?

I suggest you pull the names from the hat, as we don't want the 'powerful' duelsits to meet in the first rounds otherwise some n00b (like me :)) will fluke it to the end whilst all the good guys get knocked out early, then who ever else gets to the final will have an easy win.

<why in all my psots to I keep talking about me in the final lol ? Praps its a force vision....>

To save Silk the trouble, this question's already been asked and answered. Here is Silk's answer to Bubu's question, similar to yours.
I quote,

No part of my statement said I expect a 20 person server to hold 42+ people at once. We could go about 4 duels per time, keep things flowing. And spectators...we'll have a commentator on TS.
...Unqoute. =D

ah ha ha, seriously man i'm one of the most unbiased people you will ever meet, I got my best friend in trouble with the JAT's (he was being naughty, what can I say?) and even disqualified MY OWN clan (which I was in at the time, but a ref was needed from each team, don't ask me why) for not playing fairly.

so if anything, I'll disqualify myself :)

As long as you don't become the referee for the duel with your next opponent in it everything is fine with me.... :)

Having different servers could cause ping issues, and people getting upset about one guy being able to fight on the server with a better ping. I say keep one server, but let people go in gradually, maybe 2 different rooms (although again you have the problem of people saying that one room had more space etc)

About amount of people in a server, don't even try 42 :) 10, think that still might be a bit steep, but there are a lot of people to cover. The thing is, even if they only spectate, people cause lag, and if they follow someone it makes the dueler lag, so if you've got 7 of the 10 people all watching one guy....you see what I'm getting at.

As for refs, you already asked me silk as I said I had experience admining tourneys. If you still need me then I'll do it when i'm not fighting or WHEN I'm eliminated :) Otherwise go with the people that have no other commitments :)

The EU people (or those close to Europe) on the NL server and the Americans/closer to that than Europe on the Home server? And the times should probably be different for the two servers to make sure most people possible can make it.

we should split the tourney up on 2 servers, half on one half on the other...Once the brackets are set in, it'll be easier to see who goes where. We also need to know what possible time we will be dueling.

should have like first 10 or 12 people go in, have them go at it, then the next, then the next etc........ do it that way. for the first rounds, then the second rounds split in half, then the third you can have them all and the last round them all there, confusing isn't it? :confused:
