Alright folks. Here's what I'm doing.
Sixto told me yesterday that he'll be very busy in the coming weeks, so he's bowing out of the competition. Disappointing to be sure, but that's how it goes sometimes.
Since we had five Doubles teams and now seven Singles artists, I've decided to move Sir_NutS and Jivemaster into the Singles tourney under their collaborative artist name "Helicopter Knife Fight." Given that they've worked together before and have published music under that artist name, I feel like this makes the most sense. Timaeus and GrapplingHook will be paired together for the Doubles tourney, as they are both interested in Doubles and don't have partners.
Now we have 8 artists in Singles, and 4 teams for Doubles. These are great numbers and I feel I can lock in the competitors now. I'll be running the draft this weekend and the Singles tourney will begin their mixing stage most likely on Sunday. You all have until Saturday evening to lock-in your Knight picks, so make sure you get those posted on the forums.
If you haven't already, make sure you fill out the Competitions Consent form. I really need these filled out so that we can do a proper archival release on OCR at the end of the competition.
Thank you everyone for signing up. This is going to be a great competition and I'm looking forward to what everyone's going to bring to the table.
