Unlike the lottery, the numbers of participates can change and if needing it can shorted to 16 to get the tournament on the road.

 

I'm not going to tag it as official, but FireZ has personally approved of it. I have no doubt in my mind that this will be successful and I plan on seeing it through, every game, to the end
