Same rules as the last tourney. One tournament. 16 people. No second bracket here, but somehow it'll still be a Rors vs. Rors final!

Difficulty: All-Madden
Time: 8 Minutes w/ accelerated clock 20 seconds

1. daw840
2. Lonestar
3. DCX
4. CB3
5. AstroLad
6. Sanjuro Tsubaki
7. Birdman02
8. LiveWire
9. Matrix
10. Rorschach
11. Ramirez
12. DenogginizerOS
13. BigAT
14. DMczaf
15. Wellington
16. FrenchMovieTheme

Just to speed it up and not have to wait a week for a game to finish, I'm thinking a 2 or 3 day deadline for each round. Unplayed games will be decided with a coin flip. Thoughts?

Edit: Looks like we'll be going random teams for this tournament! You'll be assigned a random team using the random number generator method below. :D

Edit 2: Teams generated!

daw840 - Falcons
Lonestar - Lions
DCX - Dolphins
CB3- Seahawks
AstroLad - Bengals
Sanjuro Tsubaki - Titans
Birdman02 - Vikings
LiveWire - Browns
Matrix - Saints
Rorschach - Patriots
Ramirez - Giants
DenogginizerOS - Eagles
BigAT - Cowboys
Dmczaf - Cardinals
Wellington - Steelers
FrenchMovieTheme - Broncos

Should we change it up and do different teams?
I wouldn't mind people using different teams, or picking whatever team to play with. Heck people can even use the same teams against each other. :lol A Rams vs. Rams final would be epic!
 
Agree with the deadline too, provided people can play after 9 EST I can play pretty much anytime during the week and on weekends I'm flexible during the day.

You could try to do random teams -- that would be kind of interesting.

go!
 
What if we did something like...you have to use a different team per round? I dunno, just throwing it out there.

*looks at current seeds*

I assume we're doing the seedings random too yes?
Yup. If we do go with random teams (which it looks like we will!), I'll use the list in the OP to assign teams, then generate a random bracket after.
 
Would it be totally crazy to do a best-of-3 format? Single-game final. I know the one bummer about tournaments is you only get one crack and it's done if you lose. Just throwing it out there.

edit: could give people 4 days to complete, that way if they do two and it's down to a third they can play that the following night or nights if they want. tension!

Can we do 8 minutes with 20 or 15 second run-off?
Sure we'll try it for this tourney.

I gave the last 2 spots to Wellie and FMT. Generating team assignments soon! And we'll do double elimination with a loser's bracket as Rors suggested.

Awesome! I get to play at least 2 games!
 
Count me in of course!

edit: Oh fuck this shit! Seriously? You open up the thread in the middle of the day when people are at work and the shit is full less than 2 hours later?
 
Rorschach said:
If we can get 24 people in, can't we still have a tourney?
I wanna stick to 16. This is how we got into the two bracket mess in the first tourney!
