@ghr2:
I would still like to see g40 elevated to equal status as the others instead of relagated to a 2nd class game.�  If we get more global players to these events, then maybe it will happen.
How do you suggest we get players to devote 10-12 hrs to this game. Remember if you even had Single elim, and had 8 “teams”, you would need all three days, 8 on Thursday, 4 on Friday, 2 on Saturday. Sunday is a no-go for obvious reasons.
What do you suggest?
P.S. My suggestion would be a “1942” start date with the global game. Thus, you could finish in less than 12 hours, and perhaps get more players.
