So right now we have about 110 contestants with the Tournament about two or three weeks away from starting.

 

Originally I had planned to have a seeding round where all contestants would have to grade 8+ books, then take the top 64 scores and place them into brackets. That's the way March Madness usually runs.

 

If we ran the Tournament that way, 46 contestants would be sent packing after the seeding round.

 

We could break tradition due to the large number of contestants and have two 64-contestant brackets. Then the winner of each bracket could face off. If we don't get 128 contestants, I'll throw out first round byes to those scoring highest in the seeding round.

 

Any thoughts?

I like your original idea. If I can't grade 8 books and be in the top 64 then I don't deserve to be in it. Only the eagle eyed will survive. 2c
