First, if you're gonna send a message, put everyone as BCC.

Second, was my map ok? The maps list you have isn't exclusive you said and I don't know what's allowed or what's not.

Third, happyfeet will be in. If you force both partners to sign up (which is not a rule), then I can get him to sign up too, but that seems kinda silly.

Illustration: In round 1 all odd numbered teams win and even numbered teams lose. Odd numbers remain in the winners bracket, even numbers drop to the losers bracket. In each round all losers in the losers bracket are eliminated. Losers in the winners bracket drop to the losers bracket (unless they have 2 losses). In the event a filler is needed to complete a round a random wild card drawing of all losers will be held. Once a wildcard loses a game they are completely eliminated from the tournament.


Ok, if each team plays only one game per round, whos home map do you use for that game and how do you choose it?

Ahh, yes, that detail is explained in the BASIC RULES section, but I've edited the section you quoted and added it there also. I have also made a slight change to the format. We will now use a standard double elimination bracket system instead of the wildcard system. (I ran some models and a wildcard team ended up winning the tourney having 2 losses and beating a team with only one loss, so I scrapped that idea)

Here is the updated format (copied from the first post).

Each team plays one game per round. Double elimination, double bracket illustrated below. Lose 2 games and you're out. For each game in each round I will flip a coin (using Random.org) to select which team's map will be used for that game.

Double elimination...

All winners remain in the winners' bracket and advance to the next round. All losers drop to the losers bracket. All teams that lose one game in the losers bracket are eliminated. The winners will have no more than one loss.

Round 1...Round 2...Round 3...Round 4...Round 5
............Winners (winners advance losers drop to losers bracket)
Team
1.............1
2
3
4.............4..........4............4............4
5.............6..........6.........................8
6
7
8............8

............Losers (winners advance, loses are eliminated)
.............2...........2
.............3...........1...........1
.............6...........8...........8
.............7...........7
