It is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles; if you do not know your enemies but do know yourself, you will win one and lose one; if you do not know your enemies nor yourself, you will be imperiled in every single battle.

OP here, any questions feel free to shoot me a message
Whats up SC2 players of Brisbane,
Figured since I was the one organizing the tournament, I should probably jump into this thread :P. This is my first time organizing a tournament, we're going to try it this weekend and hopefully make it a regular thing (provided that we can get consistent numbers). What would you guys like to see for prize pool distribution? Im open to suggestions but will have to have values finalized by Wednesday night. I assume that you guys would want a Bo3 bracket and a Bo5 finals? Your feedback is how we will make the tournament run so let me know what you want .
Bracket length would be something to decide when you know how many people are coming. As for prize money, distributing $50 past 3rd place is tough so 30/15/5 or whatever is fine.
Have to say, $5 is super cheap for a tournament so i have to commend you on that! You did good son.

Hmmm, probably not for the first tournament as we plan on having some other games going on (LoL, hearthstone and CS:GO) and while we have access to really high end computers, they are somewhat limited. I'd love to get to the point where we have enough numbers to do just a sc2 tournament, not sure if that will happen tho. For this one at least well do Bo3 brackets and a Bo5 finals. In the future maybe well get in that best of 7

Thanks man! The IT club really wants to give away money to gamers, so as long as we have the numbers, we have no problem continuing these events

Hey! That's awesome, I for one really miss the somewhat regular competitions of the past, hopefully we can get some numbers in for this one .
For prize pool, I think lowest prize should at least cover entry. Other than that, not too big a deal. Format is right on however depending on time constraints perhaps a Swiss bracket or round robin groups into ro4 will allow for everyone to play at least a few games to make the tournament fun for everyone. However it does seem you're running on a relatively short time period so maybe the straight up single elimination is where you'll have to settle.
I'll definitely be there and am looking forward to it

Regarding this, will the games be running simultaneously or one after another?
Basically what time is the sc2 tournament, anywhere between 12 Saturday and 12 Sunday is a wide range.
