That seems a bit heavy-handed, no? I've run 39 complex tournaments, filled them all and saw all of them to conclusion, but I get a 3-day warning on my first attempt to run a 100-player tournament, that had steady sign-ups up through this past weekend?

Not only that, but I PMed Night Strike to ask what I would need to do to award a premium or GA prize and did not hear back (I waited, as I explicitly stated, until I had recruited 50 players on my own). Not only that, but if I can't get a premium or GA prize, I'd be more than willing to adjust the format to fit 60 or 80 players. But instead of such a suggestion, I just get the above warning.

So the tournament directors don't assist an organizer with 39 tournaments under his belt in the recruiting of a giant tournament that has 54 unique sign-ups... but they pay enough attention to say "you've got 3 days to get 46 more players or it is cancelled." Sorry, but this is a joke. A PM with "hey, anything we can do to help this get filled?" or a response to my already sent PM would have been a better first step.

chapcrap, I spoke briefly with Night Strike. Realize now this is a standard move, so apologies for snapping. Hopefully we can work out an extension (and a re-work, perhaps at 80 players) so that this can happen. Will wait for NS to weigh in.

I'm going to put up 12 months of premium membership for this tournament as well as allow another 2 weeks for it to fill up. Hopefully things will fill up and good times will be had by all....especially the winner.

Peter, there is a 30 day window for sign ups no matter what the size. That's how we have it set up. Typically, I try to give a warning at a week. However, I didn't get that this time. If you need help with sign ups, you can ask. There are many TOs that run large tournaments and get them filled in the 30 day window. That being said, it's not a hard deadline and I am more than willing and have, in the past, granted extensions if TOs requested. Look like NS decided to give you an extension already. :)

Understand, the deadline is a general thing for all tournaments and is not a reflection of what I think of your abilities. If you look at other threads, I gave deadlines to 8 tournaments today I think, including tournaments that were being run by other tournament directors.

Anyway, I'm an understanding guy and if you need any help with anything let me know and I'd be happy to assist. If you advertised that premium, that would help with sign ups. ;)
