London 'Out of Con'Trolls' Tournament - 14th January MELEE + BRAWL

[Professor Pro]

We shouldn't be falling behind for time straight away since that is the 1st event.

And i've given Singles Pools on the schedule 1 Hour and 30 minutes to be done.
And singular pool should never take this long, even in Brawl...and if every pool has a TV it SHOULD be done, and undoubtably will be if Mages DQ Rule is in full effect

And I think what we will do is Free Enter for the Amatuer Bracket and winner wins their entry fee back.
Since I don't want to make people pay again and also it's more about the play time and sense of acheivement rather then money.

 

[Professor Pro]

If people haven't seen on facebook or on the update on 1st page, there has been a new edition added to this tournament called the 'Amatuer Bracket'...which will mean that those people who don't make it out of pools get to enter in a seperate tournament for £1....tournament splitting is between 1st, 2nd and 3rd....but the best but is...

WINNER GETS THEIR PLACEMENT BACK IN THE PRO BRACKET!!!

 

[Retroking2000]

wow i was just looking at the list of players

[Unreal91]

Really hyped for this, what is Mages DQ Rule?

Edit: checked first page nvm.

 

[Jolteon]

Yo Edwin, you should come along.

:king:

 

[SugarPhil]

Loool Mage rule seems mean

You should really come to this event with Frostbyte and Chrisboi...you can clearly see by the directions that it's not even that hard to get to lol.

YOU HAVE NO EXCUSE NOT TO COME lol.

And Mages DQ Rule is VERYYY far from harsh if you have been to many events and see what people do.

Too many times people have spent 20 mins playing friendlies or just left the venue for like 15 mins without any notificiation while they are meant to playing tournament games and it lags the bracket, making someone have to wait long for their game because other haven't finished there's (im a victim of this EVERY tournament)...then having to rush at the end, being kicked out or rushed during Grand Finals, or the tournament not even finishing the event

THIS IS NOT HAPPENING AT THIS TOURNAMENT, people just have to pay attention and not be stupid....if you go to the toilet or have some important reasons you need to take 5 mins away, it is your duty to notify one of the T.O's

Loooool no excuse? Imma say im going thorpe park for the day or something. Don't worry ill turn up. I might be able to come to this months monthly hopefully too.

Ahh can imagine that happening, that's really frustrating
And can all the single pools be played in an hour?

 

[Jolteon]

People take the piss all the time by going to smoke after like EVERY set and going to the shops a lot, and the worst thing is that they don't tell people so we have no idea what's going on. It sounds harsh but it's also very necessary.

:king:

LOL Yeah it would be good if you can come to the Monthly as well, but our Tournament is in your homeland so you most definitely have no excuse lol...

And it can be VERY frustrating at events which im not even hosting, so I know if this rule was not enforced at my own event I will myself be extremely frustrated.
And the Singles Pools is 1 hour and 30 mins...we are hoping to meet this time and we have 2 hours of available error for this tournament, so either way we feel we will be fine.

This ^

People are free to leave the venue as they wish, but they will be DQ'd if there game is being called and they are not there to play it unless a valid reason is present before leaving.

 

[SolCalibre]

You know i'm going to be there. Also need to train more for this year.

 

[Global Gaming]

Yo Sol, were you the guy from the expo yesterday? This is Willz, you weren't that bad man, keep training and I see you becoming a high level player
Best come to this tourney dude

And who's going to be TO'ing the Brawl side of this tourney? I can help with everything cuz I know like every player and host tournaments and get **** done pretty quick

 

[Professor Pro]

We're going to be TO'ing everything, even though we play Melee we still will be giving our full concentration to both games...but your help would obviously be appreciated on the day.

 

[Alpha Dash]

Yes We'll appreciate the help, you and maybe Anaky, experienced TO's.

 

[Professor Pro]

Does anyone know how to in-corporate the TV's in T.I.O.
I put 8 TV's Stations in a 32 Man Bracket, but I don't know where to find the auto assign...unless you have to manually assign matches to a TV

 

[Jolteon]

Ya you gotta do it manually lol.

:king:

 

[Alpha Dash]

prof you need to update the confirmed list

 

[Professor Pro]

Update it with who lol?

 

[AmcD]

I'll be there.

 

[Alpha Dash]

the people that confirmed on facebook. duhh http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=211228712279322

 

[Professor Pro]

There's no Duhhh needed behind that lol.

And there's only 2 people on there I know who aren't on the confirmed list which are 'Eamon' and 'Mitsuki'...
The rest im not too sure because they might be on the list already as I dont know who a lot of the smash people are IRL

Could people help me with some of the names on the facebook list so I know what there Smash Names are.

 

[Jolteon]

I don't know whether posting people's FB on a public forum is the greatest idea lol.

:king:

 

[Professor Pro]

Yeah I deleted it LOL

But either way, I cant confirm who everyone is through facebook because I dont know everyone and I dont want to put duplicates

Good shiz AmcD on coming, I was hoping you and Jo3 would, need that doubles competition lol

 

[Global Gaming]

Who wants to team with me at brawl and melee?

Need to win Brawl dubs

 

[Bullet Bill]

Need to win Brawl dubs

I would offer to team with you for brawl, but I know you'd decline and try and get someone better. I am actually ok at brawl

 

[Calzorz]

sorry but 1st place brawl doubles is gaurnteed for anaky and calzorz

 

[Professor Pro]

Im better then you ay brawl...and im not ok at brawl lol

 

[Swiss]

Me and a guy called Snick (don't judge him by his name) will be there.

I only post in Dgames, but I'll be damned if I'll miss out on a chance to pretend I'm good at smash

 

[Swiss]

I'll also offer an open challenge of drinking brawl. 10 stocks each, every time you kill an enemy, take a shot.

You sure you wanna pick up that hammer, kiddo?

 

[Global Gaming]

Nty Ben

While my singles skill may be lacking in some areas, im a lot better at doubles and make a great team partner

So maybe like; CRZ? Pafos? Dopl?

 

[Alpha Dash]

If prof teams with fuzzy for brawl I'll need a team partner. My team awareness is very good, hence why we place 1st in melee doubles. So is there anyone who would potentially like to team up (if I dont team with prof in brawl as well)?

 

[j3ly]

Jolteon is poo

 

[Global Gaming]

Dujuan team with me for melee yeeeh

 

[Jolteon]

I am poo.

:king:

 

[Alpha Dash]

Dujuan team with me for melee yeeeh

hahahaha NOPE definitely teaming with Prof for melee, I meant for brawl

 

[Loz8ichimaru]

Amateur bracket seems like a great idea, should raise attendance, everyone plays a similar number of matches and introduces low or mid level players to the different levels of competitive play. As opposed to just a few matches in pools where they might lose horribly.

If there was time for it you should consider adding a low tier tournament as a side-event. Would be nice to play as Lucas or Mario for once without someone picking Marth or Donkey f'in Kong. Also would give at least a little interest for players to use more than one character and not just ignore 'low tiers' simply because of their tier placement. Time-wise I'm sure something like this would be difficult to fit in, but think about it - how many people would enter a Low-tier tournament?

I dont think I want to play Brawl Doubles anymore, I want to be playing on point for Melee Doubles and I want to win it, you should feel the same way, cos we both know neither of us are gonna win Brawl doubles no matter who you team with.

Plus we need to be TO'ing the tournament, but it's you're choice, for the sake of our Melee Doubles Performance and winning the money reconsider lol.

Yep, that's the whole point of the Amateur Bracket
Catering to all people

I will think about a Low-Tier Tournament, but generally Low-Tier tournament don't generate that much hype and have that much entrants, but we are definitely doing a crew battle...

If we do one it would have to be after the Crew Battle and if there was enough time, so we will have to see on the day.

 

[Alpha Dash]

If everything runs smoothly then I have no problem with it. ONLY if we can get more TV's. I would appreciate it so much if anyone could get a hold of more TVs, preferably CRT televisions

 

[Luigimitsu]

I would definitely enter a mid tier tournament, since I play with quite a few mid tier characters but for low tier I would probably just pick Samus, you want it because two of your mains are low tier lol.

Yes this id true HOWEVER If we place at least 3rd thats more money for us. But I know you have doubts about us placing top 3. By January who knows, we may be a lot better at brawl by then too lol.
