Bullet Tournament [STARTED]

I was looking through the trophy page and noticed the last time we had a 1 minute tournament was in 2014! I plan to make this tournament a yearly thing hosted at the beginning of June. The bullet tournament will consist of at least 32 participants but the goal is to have 64 participants(more if the interest is high).

The tournament will be Double Elimination since each tournament game should be relatively fast.
Players who are 1st, 2nd and 3rd place will get a trophy.
