My one criticism of the event (and keep in mind I only post this as to hope to help the event continue to improve and for no other reason, as I said I thoroughly enjoyed following it throughout the Saturday and Sunday!) would be that you guys got a bit behind/started to completely neglect updating the group scores.

For me both when I was competing, and now purely as a spectator, one of the most exciting parts of the tournaments is the group stages. Seeing which of my friends/favorite players would/could get out of groups and who was playing off for what spots etc. To be honest I generally enjoy this part of the event even more so than the earlier stages of the double elim championship bracket. So making sure the group scores are constantly updated via liquipedia or whatever other outlet appropriate would add a lot to the experience and excitement of that stage of the tournament imo, rather than just waiting till its all over and then releasing who got through to the champ bracket.

The official brackets on challonge were updated at a decent pace imo, (especially compared to previous events).

LP brackets/groups are also a little bit fiddly so I don't think it's worth the time for an admin to be updating them directly during the tournament, Arnor, Xpaperclip and a few others are generally good about updating them as the scores come in, though occasionally it will lag behind just because only editors with a set number of contributions on liquipedia are allowed to mark the revisions as checked.

Even with that in mind I don't think the LP brackets were that far behind, at least not according to the revision history.

Quick Comments

NvPinder:

Yeah all bracket stages of the tournaments were updated very well, just the group stages weren't

Day 1 was kind of slow on LP, that was my bad I had no idea ACL had provided Challonge links to the brackets on their website until quite late in the day

I had a pretty late night on Saturday due to family commitments so woke up late on Sunday, noticed Challonge wasnt update for groups, had a quick word to Baldie to updated them promptly and LP was updated straight after

for the Champ Bracket Challonge / LP was updated extremely fast on both sides

Given there is only a handful of Australians that can revision check / approve their own work I plan on working with ACL to be more on top of LP updating for future LANs (although I plan on going to the next ACL so hopefully i can scab some wifi for my tablet or something)
