INDIANA/KENTUCKY Official PR (Brawl) (as of 7/18/10)

[MaskedAvnger]

well wouldn't all wins in elimination pools technically affect their tournament life up until a certain point?

If you have a pool of 6 people, with four advancing, at a minimum, you have to win two sets to stay in- provided someone goes 0-5. So wouldn't you get two sets out of that pool that would count as much as bracket matches, because until they get those two wins, they are in danger of being eliminated?

Just a question. I understand why you guys do it the way you do, just seems like certain aspects of elimination pools are as crucial to placing at tourney as the bracket is.

 

[DtJ Hilt]

I don't think pools should matter much at all, elimination or not. Special cases, in my opinion, would be at larger tournaments, such as the Showdown. But it's too much of a grey area to decide what counts and what doesn't. No matter what, though, pools should not count as much as bracket.

 

[Teebs]

The problem with nationals and such (which I think you did point out Hilt) is that it is a grey area, mainly for the fact that there are so many people from many different areas that we don't know who's skill level is at a high or low end. I think pools should still have some influence on rankings, but they still do not have a priority on them.

We do know, though..just gotta follow those results threads!

[Joshkip]

sonic all the way even when i fought kel and kassandra, i was seriously planning on timing her out in the end......on a side note kassandra has gotten better.

 

[Judo777]

[Joshkip]

oh wow screw that

 

[Today]

It's not that much... lol...

And it comes with a lot of little perks, too.

 

[Teebs]

yeah... but those little perks have become not even worth my $4, besides, I heard the DR is really strict on rules now... so there goes the fun anyway

 

[DtJ Composer]

Yeah come on guys do you know how many life shortening fattyburgers I could buy with that four bucks I mean jesus. Donations are so lame and I hate them.

Don't get me wrong though. The new DR is worse than the old DR. But it's still fun.

 

[Today]

^ Lol. yeah, seriously. But hey, no one likes to donate when you can buy a burger. XP

 

[Dooms]

The new DR isn't bad at ALL. People are really over-reacting because they can't do "umad 10char" anymore. If you don't get mad about it being changed and just live with the new rules, it's not really that bad.

 

[DtJ Hilt]

They had the option of not having post count on and continuing to have zero rules, but they went with the other method.

 

[DtJ Composer]

That's not true at all.

But it's not something worth discussing, especially here.

 

[Dooms]

Isn't it the same reason that topic was closed? I'm pretty sure it is...

 

[Today]

That's not true at all.

This. To be honest, I kind of don't like the new DR, either.

I can understand a couple of people being annoying. But it was a few people that messed it up for the rest of us. The DR was a huge, social gathering. It was really fun and one of my favorite parts on Smashboards. However, threads get quickly closed, you can't really express that much anymore, and you can easily be infracted just by having less than two sentences.

This is just my two-cents. I liked the old DR, and I agree I wish those few people didn't do what they do. But I also wish they had more enforcers and yeah take out post count. That way it's not +1 every time.

They feel like it'll get rid of the bad members which it probably will but it's going to get rid of a lot of good and okay members, too.

 

[DtJ Composer]

But it's not something worth discussing, especially here.

So it looks like Indiana might be having a secret training session tomorrow...
Better watch out.

 

[DtJ Hilt]

@Jake, When the DR became a problem because of certain members, it was brought up in the SS and discussed between the active DR members that were mods (not saying who), and a couple of others through PMs (not saying who). The two options were either that (A) every "social" room loses post count but doesn't gain rules, or that (B) every social room keeps or gains post count but has to have some rules in place. Trust me, I know, it affected us as well.

But I'll leave it alone.

 

[Teebs]

Woah Day.... when did you get Mod status? Grats!

 

[Today]

Thank you! About a couple of days ago? I mod GnW so since you play him you should come and post! XP

 

[DtJ Hilt]

[Teebs]

Yeah, she's just dying to infract someone

[Joshkip]

wow this thread just kinda dropped dead....soooo yeah you guys are gonna be intimidated by spin and i with our brooklyn rage! cause it aint no suprise check out my red eyes..... cant be our cant beat our no they cant beat our brooklyn rage! :J

 

[Xisin]

What is the DR? and why are people upset at this mystical entity?

 

[Dooms]

The DR is the Disco Room. A room that you have access to when you get premium. It used to be this really cool place, but now theres new rules to it so it's kinda dead. It used to be rule-free but yeah. The people that used to be in the DR don't like the rule change so that's why theymad P:

 

[Sovereign]

I'm pretty anxious to see the updated PR.

 

[KassandraNova]

WOW! Hilt's sig makes me lol.

 

[Dooms]

Same, I'm excited to see where everyone is right now.

 

[Joshkip]
