I did make the point he mentioned, but he kinda cut off part of it.

Either one of these two points should(could) be met for the server to start:

a.) The server becomes full, or

b.) 20 minutes (or however many minutes to be honest) had passed since the broadcast was sent.

In order for players to know that the server is online a red (^02) broadcast message could be sent out for players to see that the tournies are opening up. That might help the servers fill up a bit faster, and if they don't fill up, after so and so minutes the servers will start themselves (kinda like the automated tournament servers).

I think it's totally possible to do, but that's for the staff to think on. Could be pretty neat! I don't see very many issues with it. (:
