We've got just enough for a well-balanced tree. If you really want to play, we can fit you in, but your pairings may be weird.

EDIT: The latest entrant just unbalanced the tree, so I'm redoing a few things. At this point, one more person would be most welcome.

EDIT2: RESISTRATION IS CLOSED. PAIRINGS ARE UP

Sounds fun! Are we doing tiered play so that stronger players get byes for early rounds?

It will be much like last year. Indeed, if we have exactly 48 people, it will be exactly like last year, in which the lowest ranked players played first, and dans were not seeded until the 4th round.
If we have 64, it will morph into a simple tree with no byes. Between 48 and 64, the stronger you are, the more likely you are to get byes.

EDIT: I changed my mind on this one. I'll be taking Herman's advice ( see post #18 )

IMO, it is better to just use last year's structure, regardless of the number of players. Just keep adding 8 players per round until everyone is in (with a lot of sign ups, you could consider adding 16 per round).

I'll enter as 2k. It may or may not be true when the tournament starts, but it's close enough.
