Is there no way of making this a 64 man tourney....?

Why not advertise the event in the SSNL or even in the SH forums? Set a cut off date like 1/1 and decide to go for 64 players or stick with 32 depending on the interest.

Why? The original point was to do a little HU tourney between people on this board. Once you invite enough "outsiders", its just like any other tourney and the private aspect is gone. I see no point in forcing it to go to 64 when it seems clear (to me, I could be wrong) that there isn't that much interest. Furthermore, the larger it is, the more scheduling difficulties there will be and the longer time between the first match and the last. I'd support turning people away after 32 have committed (i.e. sent in money) over trying to get 48 or 64 when there it isn't totally obvious that that many people are interested.

Missing this tourney isn't the end of the world; if it goes off well and people enjoy it, I'm sure another one will get set up within a few months of the first one's conclusion.
