Johnny-o Cup 2010 / 2011

I think this should get its own thread considering its like the next biggest GG tournament series in Japan next to SBO right now.

Heres the official site. They have results posted on there as well from each week. I dunno if mods would rather move it to somewhere besides international events but I think it should have a thread for discussion since it will be going on up until mid March 2011.

There will be a 2 on 2 tournament with qualifiers. There will be, I think, a total of 12 qualifying tournaments held over 8 days, every other weekend. 2 stores will have tournaments at the same time on the Saturdays and one on each of the Sundays, and from each tournament, top 2 advances to the final tournament. So I think there will be a total of 24 teams if I am not mistaken. So every 2 weeks, with 2 days of tournaments (Sat and Sun) meaning 3 tournaments per weekend, there will be 6 teams that qualify total in a weekend.

Then, starting in January the singles tournament quals will begin and these will work like that have in the past with a points system that determines who makes it in. The grand finals and main events will take place over a 3 day weekend in March. There will be the final 2 on 2 tournament, the singles tournament, special team tournaments, and other events!

There are already some vids from last weekend in the Guilty Pleasures thread for vids.
