The Don and I jokingly discussed the idea of Block Around The Speedbowl (or BATS). A 24 hour BB tourney, with strict 2 minute turns, enabling us to cram in up to 20 games! (Though I would possibly recommend only 18 or 16 for the sake of sanity, and the number of games would be capped by the number of coaches.)

Are you man/mad enough?
this year, in belgium, we have a 24h tourney (10 games), with mirror game every 2 games!

missing only the 2min/turn in order make the craziest tourney ever!

Those numbers are not a coincidence.
24 coaches, 24 races, 24 games. Each match you rotate the teams and everyone plays the 24 in 24!

This reared its ugly head on FB yesterday, and I 'might' look into the availability of a hall and do a 7s 24hr event (would need to get the ARBBL done first though).

Hmmmm FB you say? As you know I don't touch it but I'd be interested in seeing the chat?

My FLGS have given me the, "sounds great, but the logistics for staff....."
Basically they won't host.
I'll have to ask my tourney venue is they would, they are a hotel so should have staff around anyway,.....
