No.

so what's the word with PM? has there been any interest in starting a weekly bracket?

We'll see about getting one going this week pending there is enough attendees interested in a PM tournament. Come on by this Thursday to support the scene!

Whats the normal attendance to these every week usually? and how long does it usually take for the tournament to be over? I might consider to going to one of these in a few weeks to check it out.

7 - 15 I believe, it's steadily growing.
