    True enough.

    ;)

    No drink here. In the states I'm still considered underage.
    And it will be up for debate if this thing will be any fun. SMCs have a bad habit of making mil ball unexciting and tense.

    Wish it wasn't that way......

    Anyway. I can beat people in 15 minutes. I'm sure Incan pull off 5 games in 3 hours ;)

    The current brainstorming as is a tournament of this size once every two weeks. with a invitational skill showcase in 3 months after 5 tournaments are complete. you must score 8 points in any of the 5 tournaments to be able to get there. then 5 more tournaments will happen at two week intervals. after that all players with 8 points or higher are invited to the playoffs. these will be tournaments used to narrow down the numbers even more tell we have 8 people or so left and they will battle off in a double elimination bracket tournament known as the uber bowl. this is just an idea and has huge possibilities of change.

    Can I sign up if I'm not 100% sure I can make it?
    If it's inconvenient to take me off the list I can just wait until I know for sure, I should be back in time but I don't want to leave people without an opponent...

    Signed up as Rocket Boy.

    It's so silly that I can't use my in-game nickname in here on the Forum. In all Steam products I can do it, just PA can't. Go figure it out...

    You should make yourself a signature with your desired name on it. Helps, trust me! ;)

    This is great. I can participate if the tournament is rigidly timed. Ending at midnight I can handle; ending at 2am like the last one I'm buggered (have to get up at 5am for 12 hours of fun at work. In fact if the tournaments are at 2 week intervals starting from 15th feb, I have 12 hours of work either side of every tournament [I'll miss you sleep :p]).
