slightly stolen from last year's post, thank you Theia
Hi everyone! BLT XI is right around the corner, with manager signups coming soon and Cycle One tentatively starting April 1st. As last year we made changes that we think were well received, we'd love to hold a discussion about the format of this year's edition.Points of discussion include:
1. The format of the tournament - Typical format is 2x OU, 1x Ubers, UU, RU, NU, PU, LC, DOU, Monotype.
2. Points for qualifying - BLT IX's point cutoff was 20 points compared to the usual 30. Was this a good change? Does this need to be adjusted at all?
3. Qualifying Cycles - Qualifying was shortened to two cycles with the top 16 from each in the guaranteed pool. Was this a good change? Does this need to be adjusted at all?
4. Starting Date - As of right now, we intend to start BLT on April 1st, hold the auction on May 4th, and begin Week 1 on May 6th; however, we can start earlier if managers are decided during the first qualifying cycle. Does this calendar work for everyone?
5. Other - Any other points of discussion that you feel are important.
Looking forward to your feedback, thanks so much in advance!
