That's my bwoy Reckless  

If you havent noticed, my proposition = 2 classic tournament, mini tournaments in between.

Meaning, 2 real tournament and 2 have fun event. It's not a "happy medium", otherwise classic tournament would be off the table  

Im saying the community is too small to have a normal classic tournament. the teams are so polarized that people will eventually no longer want to participate in the tournament. AKA what happened the first time. numerous complaints about "the only teams that have a chance". There was even a post about this.

I've got to disagree, if given a longer time to register, we could get a fair amount of decent teams.

Most players didnt know their was a tournament last time, and in under a few days, we had over 16 teams ready, with backups.

+ We didn't try to tap in ex-source players that are playing go atm.

+ I bet we could get 2-3 (or more) french canadian teams, if we wanted in the tournament, from csgo or css.

+ If it was decently publicized in the servers, easily 4-5 more teams could of registered, what was missing wasn't the players, but players who created their own teams, just go watch the free agent thread and how many people had issues finding teams, instead of founding 1.

+ A lot of our current top RWS players didnt or couldnt participate, or didnt know a tournament was going on , Phoenix, taraN, shotgun, GiB- to give a few names.

And finally, there was nearly none below 9-10 rws participating, which is the bulk of wl population (i do not advocate to bring em in), but if we had a open tournament and a restricted one, we could easily get 5-10 more teams from em.

Interesting proposal, You would have to make sure the dates for the tournament were set enough in the future to allow this because if someone signs up and the tournament moves dates, he/she might not want to play anymore. If extending the registration time helps to reel more players with similar rws, I say why not. Some players from last tournament no longer want to participate but if there are new people then try it out, but you got to make it good enough so that the players that played in tourney v2 dont get discouraged and increase the pool of players that dont wanna play. If you think the guys you are talking about even want to play in the tourney then include them, but people like kamy said they didnt even have an interest in tournaments, you should start a poll and figure it out from there.

I like bills idea. btw.
