Why ? Because the top level players DON'T like getting last places in tourney ? I'll tell you what. Get Ken, PC, Azen, and 1,000 people who have never played.

1. Play Ken in first round, lose.
2. PC takes Azen.
3. You play Azen in losers, you lose.

And you're telling me that you should have gotten dead last ?

Tourney brackets should be random, even IF high-level players don't like it. Just because they're better doesn't mean they should take precedent for seeding in tourneys.

If they don't LIKE it, then it's just like Mr.C said. Better people should win in tourney. No johns.

edit : I realize some high-level players (such as PC) travel to tourneys, and they wouldn't like to get dead last in a tournament because of seeding. But it still comes to the same principle : if you're better, you will win. If you're not, you should lose.
What Mog, would you rather have every good player on one side of the bracket and you on the other so you could actually do well in a tournament? If you're not good, then get good enough to get a seed.

ikno im a new "better than average" smasher here, and my 2 cents arnt worthh as much as everyone elses, but ill chip them in none the less

just like in college basketball, the nba playoffs, any type of huge and/or important tourney of any kind, a seeding system is neccesary. its no fun to have all the best teams play each other and get out in the first few rounds. its absolutely necessary for the enjoyment of the tournament for the fans to have seeds.

now i can see ur point. what ur tryin to say here, although ur not directly saying it i think, is that its not fair, because there ARE some really good smashers out there that arnt known, and unfairably get pinned up agaisnt fastliketree, or doh ;) in the first round. they look over and see doom as they plug in their controller. buts that just how it goes. perhaps those good players need to play freindlies with "pros" to gain some respect, or do really well in their pools for them to make their seeds a big higher.

thats just how it goes

God i hope i do good at this tourney

Everyone on the power list is in top seed. (Plus Mr.C and KirbyKid)
Everyone that has placed better-than-last in the last few tournaments and has been around for a year or so is ama seed.
Everyone you don't know or who has never been to a tournament before is low seed.

He uses Marth, but not as a main last I checked. His best are Falco and Fox. His marth, sheik, link, mario, ness, and samus are all good as well. Probably others as well, but those are the ones that I thought of off the top of my head.

TGM, marth vs Jiggs takes too long? Are you on crack? Marth kills Jiggly so quickly...

Sure I'll money match you but I wanna do it with jiggly because you insulted my Jiggly when you said Dk was the only character I had worth playing against. And I want more than $5.

mr c is easily the most diverse smash player in tx. he uses every char super well lol.

i have a hard time using two different ones. feels weird.

My fox vs your Pichu!!!
this is actually not too bad of a matchup. it's not even but it's not bad if pichu is competent.

marth ditto dcx.......-1$ agree?
i think we're already going that 10 match marth ditto deal right? 10 marth dittos all random stages. if someone wins 6 or more they get "bragging rights" in terms of the marth ditto matchup.

also we can play onett also. i understand that you like that stage.

Everyone on the power list is in top seed. (Plus Mr.C and KirbyKid)
mr c is on the ranking list.

God..I don't know how you people play IC's o.O They are the character I wish I could use but I'm too lazy to learn all of their stuff :(. I swear Fox's technical stuff is much easier then IC's.


Edit: Post #666! lol.

they are good vs everyone , it's just that IC's get ***** by peach's down smash , but marth's f smash isn't that big of a deal if you roll out of the way or something of that matter, and forkgirl , sorry but i already have a partner .............Gabe and doh had asked me already , but i think im gonna team with gabe because he asked me to team with him at the last tourny but i didn't go
