Yea i think scores should be posted along with the match counts.
Even better would be score pics for each match.

Congratulations to arrow, fun as usual.

Since ladle is gaining popularity, I would personally like to see some sort of ranking system, so there are atleast 2 or 4 seeds in the draw. I am not sure if this has ever been experimented with, or if this is the right place to bring it up, but I think it's only fair to teams who perform well so they draw each other first round next ladle...

We've talked about this before and while I agree with you, the majority disagrees.

That's unfortunate. Almost every single organized sport/competition in the world has some sort of ranking system and seeding for play-offs/tournaments. I think this is a major flaw in the current system, and I hope the majority eventually sees the light.

As the Tron community grows it would be nice to see U.K. and French based servers added to the mix for Fort events. Currently
looks exclusively German & American. Fun ladle and you guys who ran the event did a fantastic job!!

There actually was a UK server, but it was slotted in one of the matches that were against byes. There is not much of a difference between German and UK/French servers anyways.

Pike sent me the recording of the KoD vs Plus quarter to host, here it is (also done with 0.2.8.2.1 and with the same camera controls as my recordings, edited in by Pike afterwards):

I watched some of the recordings (until they bugged) and it was great. I really wish I could have played. I was really amazed at how well everyone did. WD all.

Oh, and as far as seeding goes, I think there will be a time when it is required. I also believe, as a group, we will know when that time is. It may be very soon I think; like, next round of voting maybe. :)
