Figured it was a good time to open up the Q/A thread since Registration is now closed!

I have one question at this time, and that's

Can we know ahead of time who our first round opponents are?

I ask because I like to talk with my opponent about the flow of the battle ahead of time. Also it will help slow starts and awkward shuffling of feet in the beginning. If this is possible, i would love it, but if not, well, I understand that too.
