I like the creativity of the banner and the shield trophy.
Seems like a lot of hype for an 8-team, single game, single elimination tourney though... if you can get a bigger field, maybe best out of 3, or round-robin style it would seem like an acheivement more worthy of all the hype you're putting in to it. Three wins should not the A team make.

You can increase the number of teams (16 or 32) and keep it a bracket.
You can increase the games per round (best of 3 or 5).
You can make it a round robin where everyone plays everyone else.
You can do some or all of those.

That's true. The signature won't be able to be used at that size.
Here is a round robin that I am doing right now: https://www.conquerclub.com/forum/viewt ... 1&t=160693

There are lots of variations of the round-robin format I've seen. For example, if you had 16 teams, you could split in to 4 groups of 4 quad teams, and in the first round teams play every team from their group once, maybe the top 2 from each group advance, leaving you with 8. Split those 8 in to two groups again, play each team once in your group, top 2 advance again, now you're down to 4. Maybe in the finals you play every team once, or maybe 3 times to get more results, team with highest number of wins in the finals is the winner. There are a lot of variations of this you could use. The benefit of this format is that you have to win more than just 3 games to become the A team... it might be more like you have to win 13/16 or even better. The theory being, the more games you play eventually the cream rises to the top. If you do a format like this, it's important to plan ahead how you would handle tie-breakers if needed within the groups.
