The next four players after that in each group will be assigned to a 16-person single-elimination consolation bracket.There will be no payouts for consolation, only pride. 
11. Players have 8 weeks to complete their group stage matches. It is up to the players in each group to schedule their matches. You will be provided with the email addresses of the other players in your group. Schedule your games whenever you see fit. 
12. If you schedule a match during non-club hours, the two players must agree on the set of discs to use. If you schedule a match DURING club hours, there will be four sets of discs set aside for you to choose from. Please make the staff member on duty aware that you are playing your league match and would like access to those discs. 
13. If no one is at the club when you play your match, any disagreements on close discs have to be resolved by the players. If you cannot come to a conclusion regarding a disc being in or out, replay the frame. Consider making arrangements to have at least one other person at the club when you play so they can make a third call. PLEASE play all of your group stage matches. It affects the integrity of the league if you go 0-4 in your first four matches and forfeit the rest, for example. Please do not do that. You will not be invited back if we do more of these leagues in the future.
