Brief information about Knock-out stage

- All #1, #2 in each group will be ascended, while only 4 of 6 #3 teams will be ascended and all #4 in each group will be dropped.
- Opponents will be decided randomly within certain range.
- 4 #1 teams will meet #3 teams in round of 16, while 2 #1 teams will meet #2 teams. 4 #2 teams will have matches with each other.
- I'll make bracelets less likely to meet teams with same groups, but since we had only 6 groups you can meet teams from same groups in certain situation, but at least not in round or 16.

You should record the chooseing of the matches for elimination.
Like a video of you pulling names out of a hat, like they did for OWC.

^@ This wasnt necessary for Group Stage, too. I doubt that we need something like that. D:

Several reasons:

1. I tried that in #1 TWC but everyone ignored that, no one was came though I was ready for streaming. NO ONE. *cries*

2. Internet sucks here. Somehow doing something with foreign sites are incredibly slow while connection with Korean sites are ok. (I guess something is done with internet connections in this dorm?) Due to that, really low resolution with low frame rate which is really hard to recognize something, lol. There is also Korean streaming site but you guys can't access those sites cause every Korean sites requires KSSN when you want to register. (Will be prohibited to gather those things soon, though.)

3. I don't want to show myself to osu guys cause I'm so ugly ;_;

4. Not that good for proceeding TWC with this fast speed, maybe.

I said random but it is actually 'limited random'. I'm still thinking about how I can make good bracelets with those basic laws.

EDIT:
Oh and I swear I didn't do anything about 'random' results, I used random grouping program in previous TWC and functions from Numbers in Mac OS X to group in this TWC. (To evade putting teams from same country in the same group, simple random grouping procedure does not work well so I didn't used the program that I used before in this TWC.)

[serious]of course it's "limited random" because all are consequence of the situation at the moment before. Under Maxwell's demon theory if the computational power is large enough we already know what's the draw result is loooool "True random" is limited to quantum random action only[/serious]

well I prefer letting two teams from the same country not to meet in 1/16 stage as well. This is somehow applied in different elimination tournaments like football Champions league lol

^@: I'll consider that, though in that case the number of cases will be quite limited...

Eh I think it should be completely random instead of limited random (limited meaning #1s vs #3s and #2s vs #2s)

to be able to say: ,,Lepidopodus, please show me one day your picture! *beginng*beginng*", so I couldn't resist to go offtopic. My bad.
(pic for pic is also fine. Isn't this a nice deal? =w=)

I was going to bring this up as a reason, but I see lepi already put it up.

In my defense, I didn't even know that the last TWC had a drawing until you mentioned it sometime after the drawing.

Anyway, huge schedule change:

What changed:
FR/US B match time switched to 20:00 3/3 UTC
CN/KR B and JP A/TW B switched time slots
MY/US A match time switched to 04:00 3/4 UTC
Referee assignments have switched

Hey guys



I was wondering if it's possible to change the time of this match. Perhaps, 1h or 30mins later? D:

That was the preferred time of FR and US B actually, so I don't think I can change it.
What I can do is switch referee assignments again. If you're fine with taking a match during midnight, I can swap places with you. You'd be taking the CA/JP B match instead. Or you can ask someone else to switch with you.

And just for future reference, while it's not likely for me to miss posts here, it's best to pm me these things anyway.

I can be referee for the match France vs USA B.

For Austria vs Korea B, I'd be happy if someone else could be referee, as I tend to oversleep on week-ends. =x

No. I'm going by Date/Month, not Month/Date (even though Month/Date is the standard here in the US).

For clarity's sake, with the next schedules, I'll just write out the month.

@The referees who wanted to change assignments:
Sorry I haven't paid much attention. I'm really busy right now as it's midterms right now. But I can change the schedule by tomorrow. Thanks for being patient.

It's highly appreciated that if you can swap the ref job of MA vs US A(4/3 4:30) with me CA vs JP B (4/3 3:30) but if you can't I can still take it.

I sent both teams a PM. I just hope that they get it in time.

From this point on (only for this week), I will be doing the rest of the last minute changes within the statistics spreadsheet. Please check that sheet when I say that something has changed.
