There was an actual set determined because the claw saved him. Someone right now should not have a win on their record.

Yeah, But brett claims to be so free on wifi, This was like the gift wifi gave him for all the crap it did to him previously XD
And yeah I'm fine with moving it back, Means I'll be able to play more silly doubles and possibly smash soccer at long last
As for halberd. I dont think anyone actively wants to go there, and if one person does than the other one certainly doesnt

...What. The claw has so much warning to it, why would you cite that as a reason to get rid of Halberd? >_>

The set was actually not determined by it. I had stocks to spare, and didn't even lose that stock before it was over.

We can certainly try Castle Siege as a starter for the next bi-weekly but I don't think Halberd was really a big problem as a starter per say. Castle Siege does have it's own problems too, and while the claw is telegraphed and avoidable in most cases, falling through the stage randomly during a CS transition is neither telegraphed nor avoidable when it happens. PS1 and Lylat are out of the question as far as I'm concerned (shenanigans and lag respectively), and Delfino will be too common a counter-pick (since the person counter-picking is always using Ike and MK is banned) to qualify as a starter for practical purposes.
Brett and/or Slaps: Did you guys play the Ike ditto on Halberd or was it counter-picked?

I'm skeptical. Are you sure that decision was made because it was such a huge threat or just because they were revamping stages and some people said it was a nuisance? They could have been like "well we have the power to make it a non-factor entirely so let's just do that". Seems more likely to be the latter considering the claw very very rarely plays a significant role in a match, but at the same time it makes sense to remove it if you can.
Cool, adding your info to the OP. You'll still need to confirm your attendance for the next bi-weekly once sign-ups officially start sometime this weekend. I prefer if people confirm closer to the event so there is less possibility of other plans and last-minute things popping up.

Yah so I mean, on the one hand, I don't think Halberd was even a factor in any Ike dittos so far. I don't think I had a single set that didn't start on BF or SV. Plus I would think Ike would generally have better CPs than Halberd considering the other options available, so I don't think it'll be counter-picked too often outside of player preference (in which case it would get CP'd regardless of where it was in the stage list).
On the other hand, if it does become a common CP... I may consider switching for CS. I still think CS will be a more common CP for Ike than Halberd though.

Doesn't really matter if it's not used as a CP or if it is. If CS is a popular CP, and assuming people strike it during the starter list, what's to stop the loser from CP'in it barring a ban? Same goes with Halberd.

I'd just rather not have popular CP stages as potential starters, even if they'll rarely (if ever) actually get struck down to for the first match. I'm still of the opinion that Halberd is better for the Ike ditto than CS as well, but like I said, we can try CS as a starter at least for next tournament.
Halberd is trivial offline, but it may be more annoying to deal with if there's lag.

Okay. When is the next bi-weekly? and what time? I am guessing East coast? I am MT so I'll be 2 hours back.Cool, adding your info to the OP.

Next bi-weekly will be the 27th of this month, and you can find the start times for all North American time zones in the post just below the OP. Mind you, it hasn't been updated with times for the next bi-weekly yet. I'll be making a new post this weekend with all the info you'll need.

Sorry I haven't been around much this weekend, Diablo 3 johns.
Anyways, you can now sign-up or confirm attendance for the tournament this Sunday. There are two notable changes from the last tourney: Halberd is now a CP and Castle Siege is a starter, and the tournament will start one hour earlier than usual.

Got my wireless working, so I should be good to go. Even if my roommate shows up it doesn't seem like there are many people coming to this, so helping him move in shouldn't slow things down too much (if I'm needed >.>).

So, since Nysyarc has been sucked into Diablo, I think we might have to consider canceling this event or having a second host.

I'd rather have someone who has attended and been a veteran of this thing. I'd do it myself, but I can't make it tomorrow either.

You just proved my point on why you can't run the data. Anyways, I'm just gonna hope Nys makes a post. If not, I figure this will be cancelled.
