Just so I can be clear and make sure my pokemon will work in the tournament, will there be wii's running battle revolution before the actual tourny?

For free play, simply check out the game you would like to play and start playing it.

Dang...
The only tourney I want to go to and it has to end the latest.
11?!
Nooooooo
I was just thinking, though...
Since DDR starts at 6:00, can I do they tournament and drop out at around 8?
Whooo, default win for my opponent.

Dropping out of a tournament part way through is pretty bad form.  In elimination brackets, we can just sub in the last person you eliminated to fill your forfeited slot, but in Swiss it causes significant issues.  Since DDR was round robin due to low registration, I did make an exception where Will, who had something going on at 8 that he wanted to go to, just got all 7 of his matches out of the way right away.  Obviously, this put him at a disadvantage because he had to play 16 or 17 songs in a row, but it let him play the full tournament.

I had multiple drops from my tournaments due to time. A great deal of people don't realize that as tournaments grow in size, the time between your matches increases too.

I had people drop or just not show up.  It was a bit annoying

I only had two drops from Mario Kart Wii, but then again we had 60 names on the sign-up sheet and 26 or 27 entrants in the first place.

That's pretty much the only good thing about day1 tournaments: everyone shows up. :P
