I've got you both in. That brings us up to 19. We're adding about 1 per day which I figure is about right for a tourney with this committment.

Hmmmm I was just thinking that I don't have enough games on the go right now and should join some more tournaments. This one seems to fit the bill.

I'm in.

It has been asked what we're going to do about vacations etc. I think its pretty clear that most players are going to need an account sitter at some point during this tournament. If you're going to be gone for a week or so we can probably arrange not to start new games but clearly the ongoing ones are going to have to be played.

sounds good , I'll have some

by **barterer2002** on Thu Feb 07, 2008 2:04 pm

Ok we've filled up half the slots, I'm going to start some recruiting today for the rest.

by **barterer2002** on Thu Feb 07, 2008 2:22 pm

Ok I'm not very bright sometimes. I've been thinking of how this is going to work with 48 players and it isn't.

I can't run a series of 5 man games and have 3 left over or 7 man games and have 6 left over. That just doesn't work. I have to get to a number that is divisable by 8,7,6,5,4,3 and 2 which appears to mean that I'll need 210 players in this one.

At this point in time that's going to mean that I'll have to create 105 1 v 1 almost every week and I'll be creating about 4-500 games every week. That's probably more than I can handle even if I can come up with 210 players. I'm afraid the reality is that I'm going to have to abandon it in its present state. If sometime CC allows the possibility of mass game creation (like I can create 1 1 v 1 game and have the system auto copy it for me) then I'll revisit but for now I'm going to have to abandon it. Sorry about that, I'll try for another concept soon though.

OK I've PMed everyone up to this point (including cazmart) and have changed the title. I'm not responsible for those who come later but will likely check to see if anyone has any good ideas for solving the issues.
