- Registration is open up until one hour before the start of the tournament
- Players will be seeded randomly into a single-elimination bracket

- Non-players can stay in the party and observe, but I may have to make room for people who are due to play
- This will continue until a winner is determined
- The losers of the semi-final matches will play each other to determine 3rd and 4th places
PRIZE:
- The winner of the tournament will have bragging rights as the best VOOT player outside Japan
- The winner of the tournament will also be entered into an elevated seed in the Japanese tournament on Saturday, November 7
