I'm here.
The last bracket should have started in May/June.
Near the end of the last tournament there was a thread started that I felt was a personal attack against me. Since I volunteered my time and effort to run those tournaments after 12-13 hour days at work I just didn't need to be mocked for it. As much as that the community seemed to think it was all pretty funny and joined the party. IIRC Sunsfan was the only one who stood up for me in that thread. You'll notice at the end of the last tournament I clammed up posting as little as I possibly had to and have since curtailed my participation in the BBs. I didn't and don't need to give these people more amunition to use against me and decided then that it was the end.
Beyond that Ink started a competing ladder, participation had dropped off and the tournament seemed to have run it's course. I've thought about bringing it back but haven't decided if it's worth being abused over.
the DFC ladder is very different then yours(and shouldn't be considered a competing Ladder), which I look forward to...I hope you reconsider and start it up again.....
