Sorry little man, but you are out of your league here. I suggest sticking with the small tourneys so you continue to gain experience. Also 24 hour freestyle is the least favorite setting there is for tourneys.

It was friendly advice and I didn't say you had to stop. I am sorry if you are misunderstanding.

There will be 40 rounds the 20 winner of that advance on then the 10 winners of that advance on then the 5 winners of that advance on and instead of having a doubles game a 5 player game and you will have only one game going at once, but even though NO FREEMIES.


This doesn't work mathematically.

160 players = 80 doubles teams.

4 player doubles games = 2 teams per game

80 doubles teams / 2 teams per game = 40 games

40 games = 20 winning teams (40 winning players)

20 teams = 10 games

10 games = 5 winning teams

At this point you say you'll have a 5 player game, but you have 10 players left. This doesn't work.

EDIT: By the way, I agree with Highlander that your settings are horrible.

moldy, I've got to agree with them. Not that you are incapable of running a tournament this size, you very well may be, but I guarantee you nobody (this includes bart, HA, OP, and all of the other immensely popular organizers with tons of tournaments) could possibly fill 80 doubles teams on Doodle Earth in a freestyle game, it's just not gonna happen.

Ok so you have 60 players or 60 teams?

What happens each round?

You said you would do a layout after school so I look forward to seeing this.
