From what I get in this thread the following people are interested in participating as well as counting the people who voted (Who are able to participate):
Lord Leperman
Nix
Grim
Beastkiller
Atdsutm
Archangel
Fox
Goat
Grimweld09
AEA1
Clonezero
Moonlight Raven
Eithermaster
Haywire
Maitreya
Nerese
Ardjin
DT
Shintetsu
Sforza
However, based on http://ravenrepublic.net/forums/polls.ph...lts&pid=16, we only have 10 people interested.
While I'm not expecting everyone to be participating, hopefully we meet an even number of participants. 10 pairs is doable, 16 players or 8 pairs is good, and based on the reply on the polls we have more than enough. Pairing will be done on the day itself as to accommodate unexpected changes in partnerships. Anyway, we'll see on the day itself how many people will turn up, it also helps that we have a randomized tiering system in place to help forming pairs much easier.
I suggest that people think of multiple designs beforehand in order to have multiple options in complimenting your partner's AC or playstyle. Anyway, as for the number of ACs per person, I think 1 AC per person will suffice for the whole tournament, its much less of a hassle in checking for design restrictions and any balance issues. Otherwise, if people want 2 ACs, its fine by me but I think just having 1 will simplify the organization process.
As for the bracketing, we can accommodate as many pairs as we want. We can have a fairly balanced double elimination tournament with as little as 6 pairs based on the stuff from http://www.tournamentdesign.org/
The website has bracket systems for as little as 6 teams and as much as 16 seeds in a tournament.
