I am going to make a statement here:
If you drop out of this tournament just for the sole reason of wanting someone in the tournament; they won't get your spot and your opponent will advance to the next round. I am not having people dropping out just because they want someone in the competition.
That is all.

Shame I missed the signups, would really like to participate in a UK tournament - though I've only been playing for one month so would probably get annihilated by the better players 
Anyway, good luck with the tournament, and I'm wondering how often you plan to host these tournaments PortalLife? Will it become a regular thing?

This could become a regluar annual thing maybe, idk.
That's be pretty awesome, possibly open up more spaces if there's a next time? The tourney got filled in the space of around an hour lolPortalLife wrote:

Is it really fair that the people picking maps, organizing, and judging the play are allowed to participate in the contest itself? I mean, you could just pick a bunch of maps you know very well and gain an unfair advantage.

This is a fair point Lach. I chose people I trust to staff. Im on limited resources and I have to make do with what I get. Map pools are reviewed as a team to ensure fair play and reasonable challenge.
Doing a tourney like this annually would be really cool, but next time you will need far more spaces.Jeromelol wrote:

Also I'm willing to help out with the organisation of these tourneys if they become frequent.
I would happily commentate or stream the games too.

Replacing a player that got hacked and lost account access is quite reasonable decision. Dropping for the sake of wanting another is just why. Why even bother signing up in that case?
By the sounds of it you dont understand how seeding works: The matchups are determined so that the top seeds face each other on harder maps later on. If it was random and half the good players went out Round 1 thatd be a shitty tournament. Seeding will allow us to see who is the best.

yeah i got raped by a combo despite ss :S
very well played to mahiro by beating me at my own game on hidden.
make sure you practice the songs in the mappool or you might just get done in by a slider.
its easier to lose a point than you think because most people will fc, make sure you are confident and consistent in every map in the pool

I understand seedng portal.. very well for that matter, for most of the people that signed up anyway.. are going out first round.. so half the people that signed up are going to get dropped out, you didnt put a skill limit / rank cap so your putting like 5k+ players against people who have 3 or even 2 digits in there rank. you've basically wasted most of peoples time because you think its a good idea to put a low ranked player against a high rank player.. good job bro.. you really do know how "seeding works" :/

Why do you think I made the map pool so easy relative to other tournaments? I wanted to give lower players a chance. Besides, no one was that bothered when the unseeded teams would get matched vs top seeds, for example. Its just the way a tournament works.
I'm going to up the stakes for the winner: You get a personally signed deathadder from me if you win. yep the very same one that got the rank 1 on scatman xD
Another death adder for my collection. Nyyyyyesssssssss.Raiku wrote:

However your comment on 5K+ players against under 1K players is somewhat of a valid comment, but it is unavoidable. The lower rank players knew what they were getting themselves into and wanted to play anyway, so I don't think it is a waste of time. I do however think that it would be nice if the tournament had some more players in so that us 5 digit noobs could have a chance to play and also people who didn't signup within the first 20 seconds get a place - this tournament was a lot more popular than intended it seems
