We might have to delay this for a week because the new Splatfest was literally announced the moment after I posted this. Stay tuned for updates.

This looks fantastic and thank you for the competitve gamemodes. Discussing w/ my team as I type this out.

Does my entire team need a reddit and challonge? If so that's a crazy redicolous burden.

We're requiring this because we're creating rankings for our events based on Challonge API, so having a challonge account helps out a lot with this. For the officiaal Brackets, we'll also be sending out invitations to the teams via Challonge to help make signup go smoothly.

A reddit too? I'm the only member on my team who uses it.

This tournament was made in conjunction with r/rSplatoon, so we'll be doing a lot of our communication there. I know this does seem like a bit of a hassle, but this is something you'll just have to sign up for once, and for future events, it'll be easier to sign in.

EDIT: I've put in a thing on the form concerning the reddit username, so it's no longer required to have one. Just put N/A

Maybe I could get some friends together for this. We're not a clan or even competitive Splatoon Players of any nature, but it would still be a fun time! :)

I am a doof and forgot that challonge had a team signup option.

Signup link changed and is now much simpler.

Is there anyway to integrate the groups tab on Squidboard with this instead of everyone signing up for Challonge? My entire team is signed up already through here, it's going to be a pain to get everyone linked up on challonge

Splatfest doesn't effect private rooms
It may affect people wanting to do splatfest instead of attending Booyah Battle. Either way, we pushed it a day after.

Technically you just need 1 person to sign up for challonge in order to register a team, although it will only show you in it. The reason we're using challonge is because we use it for rankings, bots, and other fun things. I don't know about linking groups to challonge accounts or if that's even possible, but it shouldn't take much effort to create an account.

Anyone taking Splatfest over your tournament is a casual and you should disregard their thoughts and opinions! Good luck with the tourney, I'm sure it'll be fun.

I strongly disagree with your post. I'm sure that a lot of competitive players would want to partake in Splatfest; for fun or to get Super Sea Snails, and would simply go to a different tourney on a different day. And to disregard the thoughts and opinions of casual players! You'd be surprised with how many casual players like myself would like to play in a tourney for some fun. If this tourney was on Splatfest then it would have less participants and would be completely over-shadowed by bigger tourneys like Ink or Sink.

I was being facetious, m8.
