Phoenix 6: Ft. Tinman, Felix, Filip, Junk, Busy!
It's been 9 months since the tournament that brought Alberta and BC Brawl together, and now is the time to start thinking about the event that will finally bring BC, Alberta, and the Pacific Northwest face-to-face for the most anticipated Brawl event this side of Canada! Of course, this can only be the best event it can be if all of you make your best effort to hype it up. So, spread the word, mark your calendars, and get ready!

The latest bus leaving the venue will be the 701 bound for Coquitlam station, which will leave at 1:00am. The stop is a 15 minute walk from the venue though, so you should leave at least 20 minutes beforehand to be sure you'll make it. That's what I'll be doing, at any rate. (so if you want to take the last bus, come with me) Be careful about your connections though; many busses don't run that late, so it is vital that you check to make sure when you need to leave. For example, I take the 97 B-line from Coquitlam, and I have confirmed that the final 701 arrives 10 minutes before the final 97 leaves Coquitlam station. Therefore, I can wait for the last 701 to leave the venue.

All times (with the exception of open/close times) are approximate. We will be doing elimination pools for singles; the plan is to have top 3 from each pool move on to the pro bracket, which will receive the full prize pot payout. An amateur bracket will also be run for all those falling short of the pro bracket, where the winner will receive their singles entry fee back.
Rankings in pools will be determined first by set count, then by match count. If a pair of players is tied in both, they will do a tiebreaker set to determine who gets the higher seed. This is important because it means every match matters; throwing game 2 by using a secondary and scoring a 2-1 instead of a 2-0 could mean the difference between 1st seed and 2nd seed, or even Pro Bracket and Amateur Bracket if you end up in a tie with somebody else.
