While there were some hiccups (So many matches not being played and some no shows; resulting in me randomly giving people wins and loses by forfiet) in the tournament, overall I hope everybody found it to be a fun experience that brought the community closer together. I know I'll want to rematch anybody I went 3-2 with whether I won or lost. The two dominating players both used Blanka. Whether everybody in the tournament didn't know how to play against Blanka, or they were just that good, the results speak for themselves. Personally I came in 4th, but wished it could be higher since MikeFightNight actually got through all his matches and I didn't, making him edge me out in points (there's your reward). As a league TNT just blew everyone away. Here's some more interesting numbers:

While Blanka had a clear donimance, Sagat was the second most played character and yet only had a mere 31.42% win rate. What was more intersting was nobody picked Akuma, Gouken or Seth despite none of those characters being banned. Perhaps the power of Sagat isn't as great as you would think.
Finally, what did everybody think of the tournament? Did my idea of giving everybody a week to do thier matches league style fun? Fair? Work? or if I decide to hold another tournament would you rather have it all in one day and simple Double elimination instead? Any suggestions or critisms in general? they are all welcomed here. BTW, if you're one of those people that just couldn't get their matches in because of other things in life interfering or your gaming hours never coincided with your opponents, dont worry shit happens you are in no way banned from anything. My only goal was to hopefully make each of you find somebody in the GB community you would want to play SF4 with.
If anybody has video of thier matches by all means post them here; I'll even write my own comment of what I was thinking if I'm in the match up.
