Very good ideas. In fact, what I always had in mind was taking the top n number of players for a certain summer season of battles (usually June+July+August) and creating a sort of "champions cup" tournament. The problem is the last time I tried this it was I believe in September, so it was just called the Fall champions cup. It never really came to fruition despite an (awful) video trailer being made to boot. I think timing was the problem. So considering the fact that if you graphed player availability throughout the year, you would see summer as the peak time, I figure the only (or one of the only?) ways you could implement this single/double-elim amongst the top performing players is if you make it start in, say, summer of 2012, and have the top players of the summer of 2011 compete. But I don't know if...there would be a realistic desire to participate in something like this after a year has gone by...I'm not certain. I'm not sure. What goes inside the mind of the player? *shrugs* Why you not compete in the fall??, I think to myself.
