Important Update 6/19: I'd like this tournament to be a success so please spread the word. I'm also looking for a sig maker to make a sig to help advertise so if you know anyone good, please send them here.

They came from different places...
different backgrounds...
with many different interests...
but they all had one thing in common...

The Need To Brawl

Time passed and they stayed together but things began to fade around them.
This summer...
they fight to keep their community alive.

Requiem For A Brawl


Will they succeed?
The choice is up to you...

Coming to the OTL, June 2009.


Important update 2/18: This is the chatroom we'll be using for my tournaments.

This is essentially my gift to the world. Treasure it always.

Basic Tournament Description

Road to Glory: In this tournament dedicated to Sir 0rion and in memory of cba, you choose a character board you want to represent and fight your way to the top.

IN ORDER TO KEEP SOME OF THE CHARACTER BOARDS FROM GETTING COMPLETELY *****, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO PLAY AS THE CHARACTER YOUR BOARD REPRESENTS. FOR EXAMPLE, IF YOU WANT TO REPRESENT THE LINK BOARDS BUT CHOOSE TO PLAY AS SNAKE, THAT'S PERFECTLY OKAY. ALTHOUGH IT'S NOT REQUIRED, IT IS PREFERRED THAT YOU TRY TO USE YOUR CHARACTER IN AT LEAST ONE MATCH.

Prize Alert! Habba Jeeba Joe, I've done it again! The prize for this tournament is 20 dollars worth of Wii/Microsoft/PSN points (the winner will decide which upon... well... winning)


Sign Up Info for Current Tournament

Simply leave your name and the character board you want to represent. In order to avoid too much representation for one board, a four person limit will be set and once it's filled up, you'll have to represent another.

Don't want to wait? Send me a PM and I'll put you in ahead of time.[/size]


TOURNAMENT SCHEDULE:

Update 11/21: All the times on this schedule are in CENTRAL Time. If you live in the Pacific timezone, subtract two hours (ex; 2PM instead of 4PM). If you live in the Mountain timezone, subtract just one hour. If you live in the Eastern time zone, add one hour. If you live anywhere in Great Britian (England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland) aside from the very most Western side of Ireland, add six hours. If you live on Mars, please add 6 months. I hope this clears things up.

This tournament offically starts on June 26 and ends on July 3.

Time Schedule
To be posted within in the week.


Because of my infinite benevolence, deadlines may be extended if multiple complications arise (especially in the later rounds).


Basic Rules For This Tournament:

1. 3 stock, no items, and no time limit.

2. Pick any character you want. This tournament has no character limitations.

3. Only the legal stages are allowed.

4. First stage is agreed on by both players. Loser picks the next stage.

5. Quitting, restarting the match, stalling for longer than 10 seconds (like with Mario's cape stalling or Jigglypuff's rising pound), and purposely SDing will lead to disqualification.

6. Chain grabs, spamming, suicides (like Ganondorf's and King Dedede’s) and locks are allowed. No johns about players who do any of these things excessively. It’s YOUR fault if you can’t get past them. Play to win. All of these are legitimate strategies and can be overcome. Personally, I’d recommend counterpicking stages if you really have a problem with them.

7. No pissing.

8. No moaning.

9. A combination of 7 and 8 will not be tolerated either.

10. After a set, report your results here. Every set is best two out of three except for the semi finals and finals which will be best three out of five

Legal Stages:

Neutral:

Battlefield
Final Destination
Yoshi's Island (Brawl)
Lylat Cruise
Smashville

Counterpicks:

Delfino Plaza
Luigi's Mansion
Pirate Ship
Pokemon Stadium 2
Norfair
Frigate Orpheon
Halberd
Castle Siege

Pokemon Stadium
Jungle Japes
Brinstar
Rainbow Cruise
Yoshi's Island (Melee)

If it ain't here, it ain't legal; no exceptions (without a cash bribe).

FAQ

1. "What if my opponent doesn't show up?"

I will personally be sending a PM to everyone about a week before the tourney starts to let them know that they entered. If they still don't show up, you'll be the one that advances while they'll be disqualified IF you are here.

2. "I loathe Metaknight/Snake... Can't you just ban them?"

No, I can't because all characters are legal in this tournament and that would go against the nature of competitive smashing. If you really have a problem with these characters, pick carefully who you want to use and learn how to properly counterpick stages. It may still be a hard fight but making the right decisions will help lighten the load.

3. "My opponent *insert attack/tactic here* too much. Are you seriously going to allow it?"

Read rules 6-9. Play to win even if it means playing outlandishly gay to get the upper hand.

4. "There's a buttload of lag, what should I do?"

Play through it unless it's absolutely game stopping then the situation will be dealt with accordingly. It's one of the curses of online play, unfortunately. Play at your own risk.

5. "This is my first online tournament... I'm scared...hold me... what should I do?"

Do your best. The purpose of your first tournament is to evaluate your tactics/playstle and learn about the various people you'll be butting skulls with if you decide to join more in the future. Learn who they main and what they do. Don't be overly concerned about how high you place. To put it bluntly, if you expect to win your first tournament with ease than you're a moron.

6. "If I don't make it to the quarter finals, does that mean I'm a failure at life?"

No; don't be overly concerned about how you place but, rather, who you beat. If you lose to someone you normally 3 stock on a regular basis, there's definately a problem. If you beat someone who has won or made it to the quarter finals in any of the online tournaments here, you should accept it as a pretty big accomplishment if you've never done so before. Trust me, people are going to care a lot more if you three stock someone like Zeonstar in the first round than if you don't even make to the quarter finals. Again, it's a learning experience so treat it as such.

7. "What's your next tournament going to be?"

Something involving stuff.

8. *random question here*

BS statistic time: 95% of the questions commonly asked can be answered by reading the first post.

9. "How do I get in contact with my opponent?"

Like always, I'll be providing a chatroom to use during the tournament. Hopefully the Friend Finder will be up again soon and we can use that too. If, for some reason, you can't use either of these, simply use PMs.

10. "I have a friend/brother/sister/cousin/land lord/insurance agent who wants to play too; can they enter?"

Why yes; yes they can. If you are sharing the same Wii, simply make a note of it. Also be sure to tell me which name they want to go by and which character they want to use.

11. "What's the best way to practice for this tournament?"

Just ask people for matches. Honestly, one of the best things about these tournaments is how close some of us have become. On the weekends, I'm available just about anytime so feel free to hit me up if you need help or just want to fight. Even though I use everybody, don't be afraid to ask around if you need help with certain characters. For example, Glyph is really good with ROB, Aryman is awesome with Snake, and Zeonstar is just plain scary with Ganondorf. If you want my recommendations for mains of almost every character, just send me a PM.


I hope this tournament will help the OTL board get back on its feet. With that being said, do your best to show up and bring your A game so this tournament series can be as fun as possible. Happy Smashing Everyone!

I'll be in, but I don't get this team thing? Are they actual teams or just brackets?

Main will be Yoshi, of course, but I am still deciding on if I should take either Pit, or Luigi

Go Luigi, only because I think he's better :laugh: Btw, I just realized you live in BC, as in you're really close to where I live. If its alright I'd like to brawl you sometime

Anyways, sign me up for that first invite tourney! I'll be using Luigi as my first choice, but I'm not sure who to choose as my 2nd character. Its between Peach and Zelda. I'll get back to you on that one.

And I guess you can go ahead and sign me up for the two public tourneys. Great ideas btw

From what I've experienced against you, I'd recommend you using Zelda.

Hmm........you think? Peach is more reliable than Zelda sometimes, but if I get some practice with Zelda right before the tourney than my Zelda usually does better.

Sure! I'll use Zelda this time.

I'm RSVP'ing for Hit Me With Your Best Smash. I think I'm going to have to be cheap and use Falco as my first character (shame on me). I'm thinking my other character will be Mario, but that is subject to change.

I'll also sign up for Evolution of Smash, please. I think I will use the three Spacies for that (Guess I'll have to do some work with my Wolf).

I'll withhold on any other signups for now.

just saying that you said "keep a close eye on the results", so i *** thinking if it was the results in general(like in other tourneys) or only in your tourneys.
