As an example, in semifinals phase, group 1 will be assigned players ranked 1st,3st,5th,7th,10th,12th,14th, and 16th. And group 2 will be assigned players 2nd,4th,6th,8th,9th,11th,13th, and 15th.
That would be unnecessarily unfair to the people in group 1, which would have better players and thus be harder to win. It would be better to alternate like this: 1, 2, 2, 1, 1, 2, 2, 1, 1, 2, 2, 1, 1, 2, 2, 1. This can be generalized to n groups by placing the first n players in groups 1 to n in that order, then placing the next n players in groups n to 1 in that order, and keep alternating between going from 1 to n and from n to 1 until the groups are full, e.g. for n = 4: 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 3, 2, 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 3, 2, 1, ...

please take notice that 'player b00060' is a foe of mine... so we can't join the same game. (i've seen an reaction of him)
thanks to invite me to this tournament.
You may put me in several games if it helps.
I don't think that there is a problem for the first rounds, but if both of you happen to reach finals or semifinals, then you should unfoe each other temporaly

Just finished registering all the new players in the thread. We reached 246! I think this means that the tournament is about to begin.
First I will review my PMs to see if I have some more inscriptions. After that I will update the players list (for the ones that didn't find it, is in post #2, in the first page. Hidden in a "spoils" section).
The tournament will begin on April Wednesday 22nd, 7 days from now.
You can still join. I am accepting reserves. Also, if we reached certain threshold of players, I will add a Round 0.
288 --> I will add a Round 0 in which the top 7 players of each group will pass
336 --> I will add a Round 0 in which the top 6 players of each group will pass
408 --> I will add a Round 0 in which the top 5 players of each group will pass
512 --> I will add a Round 0 in which the top 4 players of each group will pass
However, I will start next April 22nd with wathever number of players we have.
