-Double elimination
-Rounds are Bo3. (I understand this may make tournament last all day, so it is subject to change depending on number of signups.)
-Update 1: In the interest of time the first part of the tournament will have a single elimination "group" stage where each group consists of two players playing in a Bo3. Winner of the group moves onto the final stage, which will be double elimination. See Challonge page.
-Update 2: A better way was to just have 1 single elim group stage -> double elim final stage.
[Current signups: 15. Final stage will have 8 players.]
