I think it's perfect. semifinals and final are 4 games too?
That's the plan.

I used to play years ago in a similar type of competition the game of whist (Romanian variant). The difference was that it was real time played, so you knew where you are after each game, what were your chances to advance and against which opponent you should focus. It was a great competition, but the real time was possible, especially because most of us were on the same time zone (of course there were a few Romanians from abroad). I believe it would be very hard to do the same thing here, keeping together people from around the world for about 2 hours.

It's complicated here focus in another opponent but i don't care, we are going to enjoy this tournament for sure

I think it's unlikely someone will quit mid-game, but if they do I don't like continuing the game with a skipped player. BGA always plays the skipped player's cards from lowest to highest, and this can really make someone's hand super easy all of a sudden knowing a low card will be played.

I think you can get the players you need if you ask them, but it's unlikely they will see it here on their own.

I sent messages to the people I played recently over the weekend, all the commitments are a result of those messages, it seems no one is reading (or at least this section of) the forum. There were more than 40 messages, got only 10 commitments, unfortunately. I will do it again tomorrow or the day after, but only to users I haven't already done it, I can't keep spamming people.
