It is past June 25 (here at least), any updates?
I hope you haven't forgotten...
Sorry about that, been one of those weeks for me. Planning a vacation soon.
Alright guys, good news and bad news here.
Good news is I have everything on the administrative side squared away. I have everything I need to get together in order to run this thing from beginning to end. In any case, this review contest is going through, and everything's squared away.
The bad news is we have an odd number of entries. In the time I extended the contest, I didn't get my fabled double-entries. We got close with
five. I have a bracket filled out wherein someone gets a free ride through round one. I don't like this, as it puts a spanner in the system I want to use.
So here are our options, I shoot out a PM to all of the announced "interested"s I have on this thread, and the coveted sixth spot can go to whomever gets their review in first. This means extending the deadline to an uncertain period of time, and delaying this thing yet again. I don't like this option, but it makes the administrative side a little prettier, and the contest as a whole more fair as it doesn't give someone a free ride.
The other option is to proceed with our five, and I modify the structure of the tournament so that everything stays fair. It'll change how I have it planned, but it means we can proceed as normal by Monday at the latest.
Get your votes in by
Monday, July 4, 2011. If I don't have any votes, or not enough votes to come to a decision, I'm just proceeding with the five we have starting Monday. Set your calenders and voting speeds accordingly.
Good day, and hopefully this monster can get off the ground.
