So guys....did I do a decent job with all of this? I know we had a rocky start at first....:(
I think you did a great job :) Thank you and C. Norris for putting this all together!

@ Captain Norris Captain Norris

Save us fallen entrants and, in consequence, liberate the character selection!

Also I hope you are doing okay.

Haha hey guys... Yeah, sorry, I was gone for a funeral visitation of a relative. Mind filling me in on everything?
Basically....we did the whole character selection thing.
There are a ton of people who want in but didn't make it in.
A few people who got in haven't chosen their character yet.
...yeah.

Oh, and we also still have some oblivious stragglers. That's about it.

Actually, there's only one person who didn't choose a character left now....
He's still being called for at the bottom of my first post. (Themandme<--this guy.)

Hmm... this is problematic. I guess I could jump up the sots to 64, but then that would mean character selection would be useless... what to do... I will think about this for a few minutes. In the meantime, since HE took my beloved Captain Falcon (Jk), I would like to take Mario if I could please. Now, I shall dwell upon this info in peace, and I will get back to you in a few minutes.

Hold on Norris. I was actually thinking that we should allow any other people who join to use the remaining "Koopa Kids" and, once those are out all out...or if people don't want to use them....Miis. Like, tons of Miis. :) That way everything is still different. We could also allow the use of the alternate genders of Wii Fit and Robin!!

Edit: Also...there are still characters left over for people to use as well.
We CAN keep this diversified.

Will all of this be streamed? There will be 70 matches, and if each match is 5 minutes with 5 minutes between matches... it will be 12 hours long.

And that's especially true if we're only doing one match at a time. If we had two streamers, then we could probably split the workload, but I think TT is the only one streaming, so that's probably a no go.

Hey Speed, I have a suggestion, how about we also have their challonge name in brackets next to their name on smashboards, so we can better identify people that way.

I can do this. I'll edit my first post to accommodate both names.
(just give me some time...its quite tedious work...)

No. I do not want to do that. Sorry. It is either all in or nothing. Besides, this is only the first of many tournaments, right? Others could join in the next one (possibly). They could be reserved for the next one we do. 36 is already a lot of time, as The quote below me points out:

Not all of it will be streamed. We still need a streamer in fact. Multiple matches would probably be taking places at the same time. I planned on having both a losers' bracket stream and a winner's bracket stream take place, but we would need two streamers, and I have no idea who would be streaming this. :/

Hrm...then yeah....I think its best to just keep it as it is.
At the very most, we can add a few people who are on the waiting list. Preferably the ones who were closest to being added, but didn't quite make it. (I tagged them on my first post.)

Man, if this were only six months into the future. I'd probably have some (primitive) streaming equipment by then to help out and such. Eh, whatever. That'll come into play when it comes into play.

I just want to remind everyone that this is only the thread for the character and stuff. If you are discussing other things, please go back to the official thread!

I got an announcement everyone:
The current people in the Challonge Tourney will stay as is until further notice. If one drops out for certain circumstances, the next one on the list will be pushed up. If you are in the Challonge list, you will more than likely be reserved for the tourney in the upcoming months. Thanks guys, and sorry for those who didn't join.

Hey guys, before I remind anyone reading thsi that this is just a secondary post and the man discussion should be n the primary, first place will be getting $30 in eshop money. Second is meant to get $10, but I must double check on that. Thanks! Remember, it isn't about the money, but it is about having fun. Even though we all have disagreements on something, at the end of the day this tourney is for fun. Never forget that. :)

It's cool. Fox's voice will probably make me kill myself anyway.
Well looks like you won't have to go through that torture since the bracket was changed around and I'm now up against themandme
