what is the target # of teams you are looking for now that you have 33?

That's a great question considering the fact that I was hoping to get 20 to 24 teams!

As mentioned in the first post, we will play a qualifying round to get down to around 20 teams. Those teams will play a complete round robin, like the first two tournaments.

I don't want to set a maximum now that it seems so popular. Ideally we get a number that can be divided in equal groups. I think the "worst" is over now though, I doubt that we'll get many more additional teams.

I did read that in the first post... but does that mean pretty much a whole tournament to see who makes the tournament? As in you are going to be running that many games just to see who can advance into the real thing? to me a round robin is everyone plays everyone... that is a looonnggg process just to see who can advance to play the real thing.

Look at the example from the first post below. In a group of 4 teams you play 3 rounds. Every 2 weeks a round, that's 6 weeks, 2 months tops to see who goes through. The big round robin with approx. 20 teams will take about 10 months, so more or less a year for the whole thing.

For example: If we end up with 28 teams, we may play a round with 7 groups of 4 teams, which will play each other once (round robin format), with the 3 teams with the best record going through to the main round (in that case we would end up with 21 teams in the main round).

hiya lindax

just wondering why we could not just divide all teams into to groups each group plays every one in there own group and at the end the top 3 or 4 teams from both groups play every one the most points from that wins

so basically 2 tournaments and then a small 3rd tournament to decide the winner

We had a discussion about the various options in the previous tournament thread. The option you propose was the least popular, the most popular one was the one posted in the first post.

When we have the final number of teams I will post the final format and I'll give the teams the chance to bow out at that point if they do not want to stay in.

I wish I could please everybody, unfortunately that will not be the case.

I don't want to set a maximum now that it seems so popular.

in that case, maybe you should set a deadline for applying...
