I think it would be cool to make majors more appealing to new coaches to the tourney scene and even coaches who have never won a single match in any of the majors they have participated in.
I would:
-combine the High TR and High CR brackets.
-combine the Forlord Races with the Old Teams brackets.
-Create a Noob/Winless in majors Bracket.
-Make an Overflow bracket
-this bracket would be made up of any team who applied for another bracket but didnt make the cut.
The GLT has 3 months before the next tourney starts which allows for a little diversity to how you run the tourney.
Somebody suggested to use the Swiss style tourney:
-This could be modified a little to accomodate a large number of teams.
-There could be 4 randomly selected teams you would face.
-The top two coaches from each bracket after their swiss games would move in the GLT.
The Swiss would also allow people to get more for their major experience by playing more games(FUN).
The teams who would have won the bracket anyway would have still played the same number of games.
Keep the min TR to 175. |

Each group will have up to 16 teams (2 qualis) so think carefully about which one you apply to lest you not make the cut!
I am just saying... if I was a gobbo.. that's how I would roll.

I actually really like this idea. Either this or don't change it. ![Smile](./modules/PNphpBB2/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif) |

Get rid of High CR and add in Richest Team. And change High TR to High TS. |

Say we already applied with a team... can we still play games with them to try to boost their TR before the brackets are set? |

YEP.... Just dont blow it and end up worse than you started and regret that you even played with your majors ready team before the major. |

How do the goblin stars work? Are all the teams getting one for every game or something? And do we need to leave an empty spot on our rosters for them? |

If you get into the actual tournament (the final 16, not the qualifiers) then you get a free goblin star each game provided that you have a spot free on the roster. |

Then I guess I probably don't have to worry too much about that...
