Maybe we can do without groups then? Just make it a double-elimination bracket and that's it.
Actually, a good idea is to have a simple double-elimination bracket, without groups - it will significantly reduce the time and add dynamism. Even if there are free wins in the first round - it's not a big deal.
With this many people, playing a couple of games and then getting eliminated is not very interesting... (someone gets through due to technical issues, while not really enjoying the game, or maybe some players' parents just decided to help them out and pushed each other out in the first round).
After the group stage, the picture becomes clearer.
I would like to play a little bit in the group stage!
There are a lot of people, yes! but as usual, some disappear even before the start of the games... Will there be a confirmation of participation?
