We have good news, bad news, and more good news. The first piece of good news is that our Discord server's GoatBot now has the capability to automatically run tournaments through challonge, saving our staff members time by not having to manually enter results from each round and allowing them to instead use their time entirely on streaming and judging. The bad news is that our July Freeroll isn't going to have prizes quite on par with our last freeroll. The reason for this is simple: We need to test our bot's new tournament-running capabilities to make sure there aren't any bugs. In the case that there are any unforeseen bugs, we'd rather that not happen during a super high-stakes tournament.
The last piece of good news? Our August Freeroll will have prizes so huge, that will be by far the largest prize support for a free tournament in the history of Goat Format Yu-Gi-Oh! (if not Yu-Gi-Oh! as a whole). What prizes are they, you might ask? Can't reveal that just yet. Read on for info about our next two tournaments. July: Shirts/VIP Freeroll
