I thought people in the winner's brackets got byes every other round after like the 4th round or something so they wont have to wait on the loser's brackets.Mekkah said:A random contributing post to show you how many people will be in each bracket per round, assuming no disqualifications, and Nate keeps the same system as last year (the winner of the winner's bracket gets 5 weeks off or so while the loser's bracket keeps going).
Feel free to correct mistakes.

Winner of the winner's bracket is decided in this round. Losing that match means you'll have to win 3 more rounds, and even if you win those, you'll have to defeat the same person twice in a row without losing.

Winner's Bracket: 1
Loser's Bracket: 7
Total: 8
One person in the Loser's Bracket probably gets a Bye here, or there's a Round Robin. This is assuming there's a bye.

The ultimate winner of the winner's bracket has two chances (because he's never lost before, and it would be unfair if the winner of the loser's bracket would be able to afford once more than the winner of the winner's bracket). This means that if the winner of the loser's bracket defeats the winner of the winner's bracket, they will have to fight again. This second match will determine the winner of Summer Freedom IV.
