theres actually a team of rgl admins in the cup, and have gotten a lot of support from other admins who wished to help

i have vehemently denied them from having any input in decision making though :)

YEAAAAH BUDDDY

LET'S FREAKING GOOO!!!

One hour left on sign ups!

And with that, roster sign ups are closed!
The list isnt exactly finalized, a few teams have reached out to me that they have players but have not gotten everyone to make an account, but i can work with that.
seeding will be relatively simple. I'll start with teams that are full of active invite players and then everyone else gets the random number generator. Ill post an update when the bracket is ready, and we will be able to estimate when the stream will go live as well.
Prize pool still sits at 875, but if we break 1k all of top 8 gets a cut!

Do yall think froyo joins last minute so that other teams don't fear?

Man, were you ever correct: you predicted it.

rip my $25 prize money

more foresight than I...

paging corsa

If you drop $125 the first place team actually gets less money. currently 1st place gets around $440. but if the prize pool hits 1k they only get $400

both buildbruh and the unnamed player hes quoting have dropped more money than this community deserves already lmao

gib bracket

Im not entirely sure how you view a standard bracket on this site but you can view matchups here:

Things should be a lot nicer to look at after round 1

ggs everyone thanks for hosting this THEBILLDOZER was fun sorry for holding the bracket hostage ggs ggs

Thanks to everyone who participated in the cup! Still trying to get the grand finals situation solved atm lmao.

Working with team leaders over the next day or two to get prize money sent out.

Once that's done I will write up a brief report of the event. My experiences, things that went well, things I learned. Hopefully other people can see this as something more regularly attainable, fiscal incentive or otherwise. If I could run the first 4 rounds of this cup from a parking lot while on the clock, surely there's people here who can manage on their day off.

Thanks for hosting this billdozer, was a lot of fun!

ggs s/o to my former teammates yumyum/sin/mel0n/antlers for making the time to play and toss too for drops

yeah s/o bill for taking the initiative

I had a lot of fun playing, shoutouts to THE BILLDOZER for hosting and being flexible as always. I hope this inspires people to run more events like this!
