Also, if enough people sign up that get knocked out (I'm putting it at 8 players) then I'll end up hosting a lower rating bracket that will operate in the same format as the upper bracket. It'll give out the generic tournament winner/faction face/faction logo awards. So feel free to sign up even if you aren't really close to the top 16 on the leaderboard.
The lower bracket event would operate concurrently with the higher rated tournament.
