Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 4731229, member: 5798"] There is a difference between a “tournament” and a “showcase.” In a guaranteed number of games tournament, teams are placed in a bracket. After the first round, who you play next is determined by whether you win or lose. You advance to either the winner’s side of the bracket or the loser's side. In a “showcase”, the teams you play are predetermined. It’s a matter of semantics, but it’s understood by the general public what kind of format is being used based on what it is. A tournament or a showcase. This is called a “classic”, so you can’t assume it has a tournament type of format. [/QUOTE]
