the only problem that i see with the brackets is how would we be able to submit them? pdf format? thats just something i see bringing up problems

Simple answer is just a list of who you think will win each round.

Example---

round one : 32 winners picked
round 2: 16 winnerds picked
etc etc

We did this for the TPF HU Matches last time and it worked pretty well.

Im sure I could swing a couple bucks so count me in if we do this.

Im thinking maybe a new thread is in order here?

[BrianSwa]

you need a intrest thread 1st to see if it will even be worth doing, if noone is interested wont be worth it.

Yep, are they going to release the brackets before the events actually take place? They obviously need to be released with enough time in between to get eveyones picks before the matches start (real time matches, not TV)

From the site:
The first round is seeded randomly during a live Pairings Party held the night before the tournament begins. Players are divided into four brackets – Clubs, Diamonds, Hearts, and Spades – and advance by winning a heads-up match against their randomly drawn opponent. The structure of the brackets then determines every match thereafter. The semifinals are comprised of one player from each bracket, with the winner of the Spades bracket playing the winner of the Clubs bracket, and the winner of the Hearts bracket matched up against the winner of the Diamonds bracket. A best-of-three-hands final match then determines which of the two finalists is crowned champion.

that would require a 24 hour (max) turnaround on the picks (assuming they post them right away).

On a positive note, we have till 4/7/07 to figure this out.
