As long as there are no objections I think we should get this thing started.
Here is the bracket.

What?! I'm deeply offended!

I kid, I kid.
This is probably for the best. At least now I won't pretend I can fit in a these games.

I do look forward to following this, though. You guys are all close to my strength, and I've even had the privilege of losing to a couple of you in the past!

9 is usually done by making there be one match to eliminate on person before the main round. it may be too late though.

me and hailthorn agreed to meet and play friday at 5pm; i waited an hour and 15 minutes with him not showing, nor any message as to not being able to make the arranged time; therefore, though i hate to do it, declare win by forfeit.

I do not know where this whole forfeiture idea came from as I've never seen this in any of the tournaments run by members of L19 unless someone pulled out, so, anyway. I convinced him to play the game with me and I lost game 1.

I've played our first game with tj, and I won a hard fighting game. I don't know what's up with me lately: 3 games, 3 times white, 4 star points or more. Influence game and then bam, I go for the hunt. I can't go like this, my reading is not good enough to back me.
Comments welcome, of course.
