Oh wow, I just got back from work and it's all over??
Congratulations Toad! And congratulations to GUTZ, im glad you didn't make life easy for him. Very worthy finalists. Shame we couldn't get it recorded but there is always a next time.
I'll seed and rank everyone, so that the next tournament that plays, it automatically makes sure things like the number 1 and 2 seed could only meet in the final. Any new comers will either be unseeded or being automatically given the lowest rankings. But hey, they'll have their chance to move up the ranks in the next tournie!
Well, November should be fun. More people want to play. November is also a busy month for me. The first weekend of Nov I wont be available for at all, MASSIVE STAG NIGHT which promises to be akin to The Hangover movie. Any time after that sunday (the 6th) is fine. I will have a wedding to go to on the 19th, but I can work around that like play a bunch of games the day before or after. Only be one day at most I wont be available.
As cool as doing the whole thing on one weekend, it's asking a lot for everyone to be made available fully, on one or two days.
What I suggest we could do, is have it between two weekends. It could start on a Friday, then you have a whole week in front, and it can conclude on the sunday, the following weekend. So that would be over a period of 12 days. In the event everyone could be available for one weekend, that would be better. Once we get an idea of how many people are joining, and their "schedules" im sure something can be worked out.
I'm for a open roster this time. I was thinking, what they do in tournaments is you pick a character, and if you win with that character, you keep going till you take a loss. Then you can change to anyone else you like. I'm pretty sure this is the system they use in big Tournaments like EVO.
I should probably make a thread that can be a "Sign Up" thread and a "Suggestion Thread" all in one.
If GUTZ and SAIX want to get on XBL at any point, maybe we could talk about how we could do the next tournament. I thought this one was a lot of fun, but there is definitely room for improvement.
26 pages, 500+ posts, 6,500+ views, fatalities, babalities, salty tears...this tournie had it all!
Congrats again Toad, and well played everyone that was in this tournament!
