oh boy cant wait for the tournament to end during winter!
We're going to have year-round tournaments! And by that I mean we'll have 4 tournaments that all take over three months each.

Not to worry though, I'll be splitting up the Round Robin phase this go. No more "eleven games per person" crap.

Just wanna know why
Its almost like it's the most popular format.

If people would do their matches quicker we'd have time to do more than the seasonal games. I already have an Ubers and a Monotype planned if we ever have some time to spare, and might branch out into lower tiers if we can get these moving really quick.
