Why the **** would you clear the brackets? If they were indeed done randomly, you would only just randomly fill in the extra teams into the ~bye~ slots and all would be good. There's no need to clear it just because of 1 extra team or server. That makes the whole point of doing it once retarded.

Once you filled it to 16 teams, everything would still be pretty much the same, still random and fair.

There are two more slots open for sign-ups and they WILL close tonight...brackets will be posted permanently the night of Feb. 15th.
Wait wait wait...

You want to reopen sign ups once you get more servers to accomadate more slots.
But brackets have to change because you don't have the servers, however that was the whole point of opening sign ups back up because you just got more servers.
I'm looking at how many servers you have right now. You don't need to change the brackets, keep them how they are and use G5's server as first round Speeders + the next team to sign up. Plain and simple.

Agreed, up until 16 teams your previous system works fine. Past 16 I understand the confusion and highly suggest not to go above 16

i indeed did add the 14th team to the brackets for about 10 mintues...i then cleared th ebrackets thinking it would cause too much confusion posting them too early. I guess i created more confusion than was prevented.
I will repost th ebrackets like i had them.

They should look almost the same with a few minor changes due to an added server and team.

Don't you find 18:00 GMT a bit early? Ladle starts at 18:45, which is perfect, as it's just past dinner time (for 90% of the euro's). I know I'm late posting this, but if a majority agrees, is there a posibility it can be postponed 30-45 minutes?

We can start a poll on the armagetronad forums, where every team leader can vote.

@ Durka, I am chicken and created a new account because I wasn't sure wether wap or me could play, so we created a shared account.
