In the Seattle Battle two pairs were set up at the same time, would it be possible to have two tables and set up two while the other two are playing?

In the Seattle battle there were 16 contestants, 15 battles, all single elimination. With only 8 contestants have you thought of a double elimination contest? This would allow each contestant to play at least twice and would only take 14 battles, and would include a consolation battle for 3rd and 4th.

B#= Battle, L#=Loser of B#, W#=Winner of B#
