I will open a room in Tournament lobby 1 called "Weekend Smackdown". Players who are interested in participating have to write a message in the room. For example: "I want to sign-up".
After sign-ups finish, I will take the current RM-1v1 rating for seeding purposes. A player needs atleast 20 rated games played on the RM-1v1 ladder.
All players who sign-up for the event have to stay in the room until the seeding is done and everyone knows their opponents for the first stage.
