Intro to Pound 5 stuff

Since there's no livestream and just Twitter updates, it'll be like Genesis last year (with hopefully as much hype :D). Although it's not as needed since they're using auto-tweeting brackets, I figure it'd be nice to have everything in one place.

I'll be updating brackets, interesting results, upsets, etc as they come this weekend here for all the other folks at home.

Pool Listings (may be slightly outdated): http://vgbootcamp.com/content.php?33-Pound-V-Pools

-I.B. is unable to make it
-M2K and Armada are teaming and have been playing for the last 2 days with Overtriforce and Strawhat Dahean, meaning this shouldn't end up like M2K/Darc. Likewise, no johns if either of them do poorly since they've been plenty warmed up
-Mango is teaming with G$
-Hungrybox is teaming with Hax
-International players include: Sanuzi, Lord HDL, Maggot, Amsah, Faab, Strawhat Dahean, Overtriforce, JPOBS, Riddlebox, Sauc3, Acidile, Reggie, Ministry, Kirbykaze, Unknown522, Raynex, Idea, Remen, Armada, Summonedfist, Tect and Weon-X
-Axe and V3ctorMan are both there
-Azen is there and is teaming with Chillin (Groom Blue)

Saturday is Singles R1 and R2 and Teams R1 and R2.
Sunday is Teams Bracket and the start of Singles Bracket.
Monday is Singles finale.

Interesting sets in Round 1 Pools:

D20 (Amazing Young Link) vs Faab ("VirusBlueMage")
Kirbykaze vs Rayku (The Sheik that beat Wobbles)
Axe vs 3
Strawhat Dahean vs PockyD
Colbol vs Rhan (Another Young Link player)
Unknown522 vs Nicknyte (possible Pichu dittos)
Cactuar vs MattDotZeb
G-reg vs IHSB
Fullmetal vs Nando
Lovage vs Plank
D'OH vs Hyuga
Alukard vs Remen
Lord HDL vs UUAA
Tec0 vs Scar
DJ Nintendo vs Shroomed

M2K better enter singles. Or else my heart will be broken.

Edit: Vectorman should enter singles too. And I predict Lord HDL will **** a lot of **** up.

AZ Captain update (I am the AZ captain) (no, seriously, I handle finances and arrangements for pound for Arizona Crew [YEAH!, V3ctorm4n, Axe, Nicknyte]):

V3ctorm4n is in singles...albeit forcefully. Someone signed him up, but his pride refuses for him to not let him play :D

Weon-X went on a trip to Chile with Ministry (Ontario) recently, and he's still one of their top players.

I got a text from rayku saying he beat Amsah in a friendly :o
:O
wowww Rayku continues to impress, hope he does well in bracket

no livestream is extreme disappoint, and don't act all high and mighty about it. Calling people "ingrates" is just uncalled for, at any rate. We honestly have a right to complain about this one. Possibly biggest event all year, and no stream? if it's because of no internet at venue I understand. It's different if they can and won't, than if there is no way at all, though. Such as... what was it, Apex, that they tried to run a stream of PBnJ's phone because no net at the venue?

Thank you for the thread and the twitters and all the info, it's very helpful. Keep up the good work.

The fact that there is ANY coverage at this event is entire voluntary and it is not our right to complain about it. I'm not acting high and mighty, I'm advocating the truth.

Maybe if you read the tournament thread you would have known that it is impossible to host a stream given where @ the venue the tournament is being hosted.

Net will cost them several hundred dollars to set up, and there is no phone signal on their phone = NO STREAM.

Ingrate. It's people like you who made prog quit.

Simmer down. There's no stream, there's nothing we can do, stop whining. We get all the updates as they come and we'll get HQ videos after this weekend. You'll make it.
He's on your side, dude. He's saying that we shouldn't be *****ing about the lack of a stream, which seems to be your opinion, as well. If you wanna direct that at someone, direct it at Caleb Wolfbrand.

LOL. What a ridiculous comment.

*grabs popcorn*
It's partially true. There was some drama involving prog and Merkuri complaining about prog's inability to get vids up next-day when prog announced his retirement.

Melee Pound 5 Info Dump thread, you are my home for the next 3 days.

M2K better enter Melee singles. The Brawl turnout is so crap...

I could see him beating everyone but Kirby Kaze, who will win this tournament.

People WILL be *****ing about the stream, especially as newer people come by to find out that there is no stream, so lets not make it worse by *****ing about *****ing.
