  3. Is the bracket out yet?

Hey guys, just wondering if the bracet's out so we can start preparing

@Arka50
I've now posted the qualifier matches. When these are completed I will put up the main bracket.

For less patient people I've created a draft main tournament bracket: http://challonge.com/atomicwcdraft

OK My question was, If I was going to play the winner of 29-36. Say 36 wins, Do you change the bracket so that I would play a higher seed like 33 if he wins? Hope this makes sense

Yes I will. This will only happen for the qualification round though. After the main bracket is made it will not be changed.

So the non-qualifier aspects of this bracket will remain the same, but the matches should not occur yet?

They will remain the same unless someone withdraws or is forfeited for some reason. Flagged for cheating and being chat banned are two examples of how that could happen. If that did happen then the non-qualifier matches could change.

I'd rather the matches weren't played until the qualifier is finished and bracket is final. If someone drops out or is forfeited then a player who lost in the qualifier could still take their place and still give us 32 players.

Challonge can make bracket if number of participants is not equal power of 2. It allows not to change bracket after qualification round.

I want to change the bracket after the qualification round.
