I call dibs!

Edit: might i also make a suggestion for the overall tournament? The current schedule has all the games being played on New Years Eve and New Years Day. Now i don't know about you but for those two days i will be pretty damn drunk watching every sporting event on television, it may be tough to play competitive Halo for those two days, why not make it this Wednesday and Thursday. Or right after the New Year?

[System]

Team: Decisive
Members: System of a Own, Awptickal, Oh My MikeY, Envaysion

[Blood Falcon22]

Hey dude, on the list there only seems to be 7 teams, not 8. Also, if you make it a 10 team tournament, then 1(for winners brackets 1-3) to 3( rotation) teams would have to have a freebee on winners bracket round 1, winners bracket round 2, and winners bracket round 3.

[AntKeyyy]
