Alright here’s how it’s going down, there are a few stores in the Play N Trade franchise that have a bit of a friendly rivalry. So how do you settle such a thing? With nothing but fighting of course! So we’ve decided to put together an online tournament. This will be a two day (September 12-13th,9/12-9/13) tournament with the local (in-store) round being held on a Saturday, and the top two advancing to Sunday which is the big dance. The reason we will do the online hosting in the store is because that way no one can play with the standby button or any other sort of lag tomfoolery. The only line matches will be played regionally then nationally. So If you’re looking to play some west coast people in the first round you’re going to be sad.

The list of stores right now is at 16 so if you want your store to participate I would urge you to call them and tell them. We will be taking the top 2 from each store for a final 32 man bracket on Sunday. This number can grow if more stores join on. Check back here for updates.

The brackets will be made the Sept 12th and sent to all the stores that same day so they can run their matches. Byes will be determined by amount of entries for each store. a 10 man tournament gets no bye >:D

Here are the rules for the big 32 man throw down(9/13) :
