    I helped organize a LAN for 40 people and even that was hard - I can only imagine how difficult organizing a tournament with 5000 potential entrants would be. Also, what about the smell!? At our two-day LAN party, 5 people stank noticeably by the end of it, one really bad. Some quick math:
    5000 * (5/40) = 625 stinky people
    5000 * (1/40) = 125 really stinky people
    Well, that settles it... I'm not going. =)
