as of now, rough idea:
put groups of people into X categories based on where they fair against each other.
they fight each other in the group.
???
end.
what ??? is, i've no idea. probably 2 at a time too or something, to avoid things getting too long. have no idea what the length would be yet as obviously there's a bunch of changes that could go on. one of the ideas the ??? could have depends on the earlier structure, but if you break it down so that two winners of a lower division can challenger a higher one, repeat. there's variety, though a lot of it will depend on how competitive this ought to be and how uh.. just matches by things done by B8 ought to be.
to that end, not everyone on the wiki would make it obviously, though most would. some standouts wouldn't for some reason or another (either there's nowhere to fit 'em, they don't result in good matches, they aren't really original - the same things said since the beginning basically). but that's the basic structure. without getting into terrains anyway. right now, unless i counted wrong, there are 39. would think a good 30 of 'em can make it without much problem. this isn't including stuff like V2s, where afterwards i could see about 40 entries.
each division having say... 6-8 would probably be enough. depends on the numbers anyway. time is a pain there. so long as all the characters in get their fair share of exposure or some tag teams can get made (hell, maybe establish a tag team division if enough people are interested in that), then it's probably fair.
