z0mfg is a MK from Mexico. He made bracket at last Apex (?) or was that at Genesis 2. He is quite good so I am surprised you are with him and Zex.
Omega Tyrant is an admin of smashwiki. He mains a common character (hint hint)

Deathbysuarez seems to be a Toon Link main (lolyoutube)

if its the former, this pool is kinda over stacked. if its the latter or neither, disregard this.

mekos and dr. yogi go to the same college i'm pretty sure. i don't even know if they play often to be honest, but yeah, i just thought i'd throw it out there. they both live in my city, which is why i know even though i don't play brawl lol.
It's fine. We don't play each other at all. Haven't played in a year.

I hope Ravenlord comes out :S (German Lucas :D)

kingtoon
Speed

Slush
Ravenlord

Will be hard :X
Wait, Blubo is 2nd seed, Kunai and/or Ravenlord arent? Effed up.
Right, except for one person, all OOC players are either first or second seed.

Some players might be on the bottom but that's because we moved players around, not put them at a low seed or anything.
My pool has Kingtoon, Speed, me, Slush, and Ravenlord (german), he is definitely not 2nd seed in this pool. lol

unless our pool was the exception? either way. It sounds like he's better than some of the other europeans coming and should be moved...

im confused, is this how the pools will be 100% if the seeds do what you think they will? or did you just group together the top 2 of pools randomly?

I personally have a problem with the pools.

Currently it's 80 pools of 5 people each or so. Top 2 advance.

This gives us 80 1 seeds and 80 2 seeds.

After this, they are going to do a second round of pools. We have 160 people going into round 2 of pools, and they want to do 32 pools of 5. Here's the problem though, 32 does not go into 80 evenly. This means approximately half of the round 2 pools will have 3 1st seed players in them while the other half will have only 2 1st seed players. This makes them very imbalanced.

I personally think we should instead do:

Round 1 of pools with 64 pools of 6-7 people each. Advance 4 players from each pool and you have an even 256p bracket seeded properly.

Now even though a 256 bracket sounds daunting, in terms of time, they are less than an hour of difference. Even though we won't have 128 TVs so the first round of the big bracket is done in waves, with the other plan we won't have 80 TVs so that would be done in two waves also.

Basically my plan would possibly have a little lower efficiency in terms of organization, but saves time from not needing to create a round 2 of pools. But the biggest advantage is having 100% accurate seeding, since it all uses powers of 2.

What do you guys think is best?

For the record, I have nothing to do with the current 80 pool system.
I have to agree with this method. Although i'd really like there to be a second round of pools, it's not fair that some pools will have 3 1st seeds while others have 2, it'd be total luck that determine if some people make it to bracket or not.

Curse you!!!

I would like to curse who ever made my pools. I curse your soul into an endless sea of oblivion and darkness.:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

Out of 400 people... You put ME of all people in the same pool as M2K. What are the chances of this happening. :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

But it's all good though... just a lil salty, but I'm down for the challenge.. I swear if I don't get M2K first round in bracket, I get him in my pools.

Who are these extra cats, I need some info on these peeps....

Those are just me putting the top 2 of each pool (Specifically the first two players listed in each pool which I assume are the 1st and 2nd seed) and mixed them into different pools. Half have three 1st and two 2nd seeds while the other hafl is two 1st and three 2nd seeds. It in no way looks like what round 2 pools will actually look like, but it is a general idea of the players who will get there and how they will be distributed.



Y.b.M., all I can tell you is that Mr. Eric is not Mister Eric.

idk how good speed is, but Ravenlord is nearly equal to Kunais level.

Tysk (Another german player) is a bit lower though, not bad either.

Probably around Blubo's Level, which should be a bit under Dueler X's level.

Speed is a top 3 sonic player. And Kingtoon is one of the top 2 toon links, not to mention slush is a top 5 yoshi and I'm power ranked in my region.. I sincerely doubt Ravenlord is getting out of this pool.


EDIT: I stand corrected.

Some MI guy who generally uses MK or Falco, but I might bust out DK or Dedede or some other **** on you.

I don't know the other guys besides those two mid-low tier using scrubs.

yeah twitch is #10 right now LOL. so you are too.

you should've entered melee singles. woulda tested what being on the NC PR's means. then again, fullmetal knows at least how good you are, so things woulda been accurate for you anyway, i think. i do wonder how he'll handle me though. guess we'll see tomorrow.

I'm not too sure Ed but I want to say Gambit is a Marvel character :troll:


Stingers it's because he's extremely fluent with his move choices and not only he is more on the technical side but he is also smart. M2K vs S2J although he lost was some of the best melee I had ever seen.
