Dueling Tournament Straw Poll
« on: July 22, 2009, 11:44:17 AM »
With the Inaugural One-on-One Dueling Bracket Tournament underway who would like to see this become a regularly scheduled event and how often (your choices are 1, 2, 3 or 4 times per year).
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

I would say 2 or 3, but I would really like to see the format changed to something like a round robin in pools then elimination rounds.  My reasoning is that a format that guarantees more then 1 bout will be more fun for the guys like me who aren't likely to ever make it past round one in the current single elimination format.

I realize that a format like I suggest would be far more complicated, which is why I think twice a year would be good...  Three times a year would be great.

top 16 for each round qualify for an end of year slugfest (TOC)

only issue: once you make the top 16 your out to make room for others
