Since I'm still organizing from my move, I'll make my shoutouts relatively quick.
- Thanks for everyone that came out. I know this event was a bit wacky since the Tio file crashed and other little hiccups, but thanks for sticking with us (most of you, that is.) I'm not sure if it's completely safe to completely blame Kyle since it crashed while I was looking up pools information, so I'm just going to blame Ori for it. Also, for anyone who I confused by saying I wasn't really a TO (since a decent amount of people came up to me asking for help), sorry, I didn't know I was actually considered a TO since I don't really do TO things, just stream stuff. I'll add a bigger/better explanation at the bottom.
- Rizzy for saying I've gained muscle and leaving me no shoutout </3
- Zinoto for being a God of Kindness as usual and dipping from P:M so I can feel like a good Mario.
- FishFlop for being awesome as always.
- Geno for coming back up. luv u bbygurl <3
- Air Bud
- Everyone that congratulate me for the YS WR <3
- Brawl for being a horrible game. Switching to P:M
- Kyle for adding
next to the first seed on the pool sheets. That was great.
- fZk for teaming with me in P:M, hope we can do it again. It was super fun and I think we could make it far if it wasn't for Wario ;~;
- West MI P:M because you guys are super legit and hopefully I can make it out there more for those tourneys. You guys are chill and I can't wait to play you guys more.
- Xatic's Laptop for making two out of two webcams to random start to smoke. What the hell is up with that?
- Me tripping at like 212% against Eddie while he was at 170%ish so he could NAir me ;~;
- Me again for being horrible at streaming and not actually doing my job. I don't know what I was thinking, but I completely neglected the stream this time and for anyone that had to cover for me, sorry x_x; I think I was over at P:M so much I pretty much forgot about Brawl.
- DRDN for being DRDN
- Tom/Legit, you can't post anymore because I get addicted to watching your gif x_x I always watch it for like five minutes. Also, sorry for having you cover the Brawl stream so much, that's completely my fault.
To anyone else I forgot, sorry, I always get a little sick after tourneys so I'm all sorts of super lazy. Video uploads will begin whenever I have time, which means video thread post will also come soon.
Now to address things Tom brought up (along with other things I heard around the tourney.)
- As I said, sorry for confusing people as to me being a TO, as far as I knew, I was't one. The others (Xatic, Ori, Kyle) I thought people knew, but it did seem super scattered as to who was doing what.
- Brawl Pools and part of Bracket did seem super stupid and I blame Ori
- For the P:M bracket, I felt there wasn't too much we could actually do. Root and I played with that bracket FOREVER to figure out what would be good and there wasn't much we thought we could do with the byes. I don't think the P:M bracket was atrocious. However, I do find that P:M doubles bracket (8 teams) ending at the same time as Brawl doubles bracket (14 teams) ended at the same time was a bit ridiculous. I don't think it was all of the TOs fault for those delays because a lot of people suddenly wanted to eat like an hour or so into the doubles bracket and since the basement stores were closed, everyone had to travel out and get food. Also, people arriving late for Brawl doubles didn't help either. People were all sorts of lost and gone and scattered and when I could find them, I don't think people really notice when I ask them to go to stream ._.; I can't talk too much of the pools and/or bracket because I didn't help at all with those, but I know there was some trouble there.
- With the 4th seeds being dropped and people complaining about that, there isn't too much I'll say about that. From what I hear, however, Scott was pretty nice about it. I don't think I would have refunded the money (except for Tom because I know he helped with the stream and whatnot) because from it seems like people were sandbagging in pools, which I know happens a lot, but it's your fault you do. Stuff like what happened could happen again due to time restrains and then you're stuck getting dropped. Yeah, we said it was going to be top four, but hey, we have to do what we have to do. It's not the first time a MI tourney (PS3 comes to my mind) went from top four to top three due to time, but I don't recall people asking for money back from that. I just can't see how you could ask a refund for that. Also, I heard that people weren't too... "friendly" (I can't think of a better word) about asking for it back.
All in all, I do want to say sorry for how meh the tourney was overall. This is a crew thing and not just one person is to blame, unless it's Ori, then it's always entirely his fault.
