~MK9 Tournament: Stages and Characters~

I have been having some personal issues as of late, that have taken my mind and focus elsewhere. Without getting too personal, I am dealing with a huge amount of depression, so I am finding it a little hard to be excited for this right now. I'll do my best to keep this thing going.

My vote is for Reptile and the Pit Bottom.

Day 8, Round 1, Match 8 results:

Arena
Pit Bottom: 19
Flesh Pits/Lab: 13

Character
Scorpion: 12
Reptile: 20

Scorpion and the Flesh Pits/Lab have now been eliminated. Reptile and the Pit Bottom advance.

Dude, I hope you can get past this. I've suffered bouts of depression before, and it really sucks to say the least. Best of luck.

Thanks for keeping this open, by the way, I vote for The Bridge and Cyrax.
 
Bridge / Cyrax

Without getting too personal, I am dealing with a huge amount of depression

Sorry to hear that :( I've dealt with depression myself over the past year, I know first hand how much of a motivation killer it can be. The best thing is just to try and keep yourself active, I shut myself away in my apartment and stopped socialising with my mates and stopped doing anything and that just made it worse (even though thats exactly what it makes you feel like doing). Good luck with it though, hope you pull through. Things often aren't as bad as they seem when you're depressed, the depression has a way of warping your perception of things and making everything look worse than it is, even though its hard to realise that when you're in the depths of it. Keep fighting the good fight :)
 
Thanks for the kind words guys. This isn't my first battle with depression. Back in 2008 my gf of over 3 years left me and that was a huge mountain to climb in order to be happy again. I know it just takes time and determination, and eventually itll be ok once more. This time, it's gonna be a bit rougher. My gf of over 2 and a half years just left me, and she really was everything to me. Unlike the previous relationship, we actually had an honest and faithful relationship. It was perfect in my mind, but apparently she just doesn't want a relationship anymore. And at the same time my grandma is fighting cancer and took a turn for the worst, and her fate is up in the air right now. So it's just shit piled onto shit. So yeah...very upsetting right now.

I'll do my best to see this tournament out to the end though. I may lag here and there, but ill try to keep it going smoothly. I appreciate it.

My vote is for Cyrax and the Bridge(tough choice, the deadpool is a great arena, but the bridge has so much going for it).
 
Definitely Cyrax and the Deadpool.

I'm sorry to hear you're going through a rough time man :( I hope everything turns out for the best for you. If you think you need a break, or anything like that. Feel free to PM me and I'll keep this tournament going :)
 
The Bridge(that stage looks friggin awesome!) and Cyrax

I hope everything goes well for you, man, everyone here is rooting for you. :)
