Everyone is rioting and the staff has gone radio silent. After 3 hours of the staff saying "we're bracketing" and "we're doing stats," Cerulean created a bracket in 5 minutes. The staff just asked Cerulean to make all the brackets for them.]</ref> Teams were eventually issued a full refund minus mirroring fees and staffing stipends.
