The structure of MWC99's Double Elimination Bottom Bracket. You can see detailed rules here, but basically it's a 1v1 ladder with a twist. Every team that loses a match in the top bracket ends up here. So every round, the existing teams in this bracket play against the fresh losers from the top bracket (the Elimination), and then the survivors have to battle once more to reduce their numbers (the Winnowing).
This means that (apart from the first and last rounds), every team has to play two matches a week. One Elimination match from Monday to Friday, another Winnowing match on Saturday or Sunday. Twice every week, the contact persons will be notified of their matchup and encouraged to play their match before the end of the time period. The time in italics by each matchup is the fallback time, which is used if teams don't manage to play before the end of the time period. For more details, see the scheduling rules.
At the end of the Bottom Bracket, there will be one team left (the Challengers). They will play the winners of the Top Bracket (the Champions) in the Grand Final.
