I'm not planning to start an IC tournament myself any time soon, so I thought I'd throw this idea out there for Brad, Arashinome or anyone else thinking about running ICs in the future.
Livestream. It's gotten extremely easy to broadcast your desktop and whatever you're doing on your pute in real time nowadays, so wouldn't it be interesting to have the facing off editors broadcasting what they're doing? The audience could range from judges to other available and interested tournament participators, as well as other random people wondering where and how the hell those 2-hour face-off videos came to be.
It would be mildly interesting to watch some people edit, plus it would help with making sure the rules are kept (no taking 1 more minute because of having forgotten to fade out, no fixing the little mistakes quick after you're done and the list goes on). Not saying we should not be trusting, as this is just a fun thing and I know I've always stopped a bit before the 2 hour mark myself, but it should add more suspense knowing you don't have that comfort..
