Alright kids. About 11 months ago I started this thread. A "pre-interest" gauge for the 4th tournament. Mainly wanted to see whether enough people would be interested in an early tournament or having it post-AWA like the past 3. If you're completely unfamiliar with what this is all about, check the thread I linked.
Obviously, I ended up deciding to go with the latter. AWA has now come and gone, and it is now time for me to start planning this bad boy out. I do definitely plan on running the tournament again this year. In the 1st tournament in 2003, we had a 16 person bracket. In 2005, it was 32 people. In 2007, it was 64. This year... no... not 128. I know it seems like it would be uber-epic, but it's just too much. I'm hoping to do a 96 person bracket (3 32-player brackets with the final round being a 3-way match. Not 100% how that match will go, but we'll get there).
So, I wanted to get this thread going to see just how much interest there still is. To be honest, I'd be content with it being 64 again. If it doesn't seem like I'd be able to fill 96 slots, that's what we'll do. So if you think you'll want in, post here. And tell your friends. Like I said at the top, if you have no clue what this is all about, check the previous tournament threads for descriptions on what the tournament is, what AMV Iron Chef is, etc.
Also, use this thread to give me ideas for ways to change things up (knowing that I reserve the right to not agree with you). One thing that I'm considering is changing how sources are handled (as in, maybe just have it be "these 4 episodes of this anime" being interchangeable with "this DVD.")
Now........ GO! :O
EDIT: Okay, also, BIG thing to keep in mind, posting in this thread does NOT sign you up. You will still have to post in the sign-up thread once that goes live. I don't know specifically when that will be. Sometime in the coming weeks.
EDIT 2: So, as most of you know, this tournament is no longer happening. However, Arashinome has taken up the reins and is starting his own tournament in a similar style, so if you'd like to join his, go here: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=97467
