What does "secret bracket" mean?

It simply means the bracket won't be publically accessible. You won't know who your opponent is until the minute before you play.

 

Should decrease the time limit to come back to the table to say 10 minutes.

This idea was deemed good enough to warrant a petition for it to be brought up and dicussed by the Table-Calling Executive Board Members.

After a long struggle to gather unique 5,000 signatures, the idea was finally presented among a few others on a list of topics that should be discussed.

This idea was so good it overshadowed other ideas such as changing the HP combination, which in turn, never got discussed.

When the topic finally came to light in the hands of those with power, it took two days and two nights of heated arguments, until the topic exhausted itself in what seemed to resolve in a stalemate, a matter of opinion, as one solution was not objectively better than the other.

Finally, a referundum was proposed amongst the Members of the Table-Calling Executive Board, with each member only given one vote. A decision would go through if the vote could be won with an absolute majority, meaning, strictly more than half the votes.

The vote ended in favor of reducing the time to 10 minutes, with a landslide victory of two votes to zero.

Here is a written transcript of the two-day argument.

<01:05:07> "Eggplant": Can we agree on reducing the call time to 10 min after all
<01:05:14> "Noad": yeah ofc :)
