Warrior General Games

128 teams is a lot. I went solely off of regular season performance and roster strength in determining the seeds. I also had someone look over them and he made a few suggestions for adjustments which I took into consideration. So if you beat such and such team in a scrimmage or game and they are higher seeded than you, understand I didn't look at individual games at all. One way to prove you're better than them in this tournament - win.

I'm going to make four threads for each of the four regions because it'll be easier to organize and follow that way. The threads are as follows:

Bort Region
http://goallineblitz.com/game/forum_thread.pl?thread_id=2025323

Digital Daggers Region
http://goallineblitz.com/game/forum_thread.pl?thread_id=2025329

Satchmo Region
http://goallineblitz.com/game/forum_thread.pl?thread_id=2025335

Dizzy Region
http://goallineblitz.com/game/forum_thread.pl?thread_id=2025346

Once the final four are set, we will have a vote to determine the match ups (just a little twist to make things fun).

Good luck everyone! Initial thread is here:

Had to modify a few of the brackets due to a team dropping out. Make sure to recheck your game before sending out a challenge. Hopefully there aren't too many more drop outs because re-seeding is a complete pain in the ass.

you should make a private forum for this tourney, it will be easier to keep track of imo

True that!

I have one but it'd take me forever to send out invites to 128 team owners. If someone wants to volunteer to do that, I'm more than happy to do so.

I'd invite everyone

Bort region ftw!

hazy, nice...putting in OTR and the Wolfpack in a possible round 3 matchup if they both make it...who says the seeding committee doesn't have a sense of humor?

hazy, you want me to make a bracket like the one I do for Landry's?

actually, Stobie just pm'ed me offering to do it at that bracketmaker site or I would have definitely taken you up on it.

A friendly bump and reminder with the new season starting tomorrow. Make sure to send out and accept challenges for your first round matches tomorrow. Because of the size of the field, I will have to be very strict with the three day rule. If you fail to meet it, your team will forfeit. No second chances either. Don't send me a pm saying "we already scheduled three but we'll schedule one as soon as we play one of the three" since the rules clearly state that you must leave one scrimmage available at all times if you are still in this tournament.

Best of luck to everyone in season 8!

Bump.

It is day -4 now, if you do not have your first round matchup scheduled by the end of day -2 then it will be considered a forfeit for the higher seeded team (i.e. if 1 vs 32, the 1 seed would forfeit) unless the higher seeded team has posted that they attempted to schedule a match - in that instance the lower seeded team will forfeit.

There will be no lee way on this. It's the only way I can get this tournament done in one season.

Teams that did not meet three day requirement have now forfeited their first round matches - this included a few top ranked teams but I'm not going to play favorites. As shown above, I've given plenty of people opportunities to get this done and all it would take is a simple post stating that you sent a challenge and it was not accepted.

2nd round brackets have been posted - still some first round matches to complete but enough are in the 2nd round now to move forward.
