Now that you have the groups all organized and are working on match ups. do you have a plan for what the format will be moving from the group stage to the bracket stage? as in: how many will make it from each group, will there be "wild card" spots? unless I miscounted, you've got 17 groups of 8 making 136 entrants.

I know its not the most important thing right now, I'm just curious. Looking forward to getting started.

Yes. I have it all planned out already. If no one is inactive and dropped from the tournament, there will be the top 64 teams in the best bracket (just like college basketballs march madness. The next 64 will be in a secondary bracket (like the NIT). And the last 8 will be in a their tournament (like the CBI). Each group winner will get an automatic bid into the top tournament even if other teams are better than them in another group (just like real college basketball).
