MELEE-FC10R Legacy...is done!

[What's The Point]

Pretty sure that this is going to be the hypest Brawl tournament ever.

Man I am pumped.

I just hope you have enough set ups.

 

[Tink]

that was before dart became, conqueror of SMYM, 0_0....but i think he just has other obligations...tho this was posted at the beggining of the yearish -_-.

 

[KishPrime]

As I head for bed, we're sitting at 152, plus about 4-5 waiting to clear PayPal and 5-10 who contacted me early about possibly needing a day or two to straighten it all out.

Looking like a fun tournament. And based on how setups were looking, we might well have under a 3:1 player-to-TV ratio...which would be incredible.

Everyone excited for 10-11 man pools in the first round?

 

[Pink Reaper]

who needs pools

150 man single elim brackets are where its at.

 

[The Good Doctor]

I want to see pools so bad!
SO BAD!
Cut to top two?

 

[Juggleguy]

10 player pools are gonna be amazing, so much playing time. And I can't even imagine how hyped the final round of pools is going to be.

 

[The Good Doctor]

Rob, predict everyone that is better than me to win!

 

[baka4moé]

10 man pools? you're joking right? lol...<_< for top 4 a pool thats pretty rough R1 heh

 

[Yakal]

idk man, i just based off of what the entrants page said.

just kidding bro lol

Ian if you're committed to someone else I could attempt to find another teammate. I'd rather not though

what a nice guy.



for real though rusty needs a teammate someone team with him, he's solid.


Real happy with the numbers now, I should have never doubted the hype.

[.Ðempt]

Hey. You up there. Yeah, you. Above me. RELAX.

 

[-Chad-]

yeaaaaa first name on the list son

 

[slartibartfast42]

Procrastination and Laziness aren't the same thing... Also I'm up on the list now, so everything is good.

I still want to know if it's possible for a spectator to get in on the food.

 

[The Star King]

Looking at the rather unfortunate 64 Singles list, it looks like Battlecow might actually win Smash 64. Someone PLEEEEASE stop this from happening. You know ily Battlecow

 

[Vudujin]

Please, I beat that kid on the laggiest tv in the world.

Why on earth does everyone comment on how smashers always reg on the deadline? There's a deadline for a reason. . . . so we can reg on it. Get your jaw off the floor, you look like a damn fool.

 

[Divinokage]

10 players pool!? Holy!! That sounds fun! If there's enough setups for everybody (50) for like 150 people then omg.. the friendlies, the MMs.. so much play time indeed!!

 

[The Star King]

Please, I beat that kid on the laggiest tv in the world.

Lag affects both, and apparently it was Luigi dittos so yeah. But if you beat him in Singles you'll be my new favorite player

 

[silverliight]

okay so if there is a 10-11 man pool how many seeds are there for you to make it out of your pools?

 

[Strong Badam]

We're still working that out.

 

[KishPrime]

My guess of the top of my head is 4. As long as it's well-seeded, no one in contention for anything will be eliminated, and everyone else gets 9-10 tournament matches. Should work out right.

 

[Эикельманн [РУС]]

Ian if you're committed to someone else I could attempt to find another teammate. I'd rather not though

Nah, we good.

 

[Habefiet]

So would there only be two rounds of pools then or something? By my reckoning, pools of 10ish with top four making it out cuts it down to ~55 people, and then pools of five with top three or something gets it down to 32.

Never been to a major tourney before, I don't really know how this all comes together. Will there be amateur brackets for us folk with little/no chance of making it out of pools barring some ridiculous spot of brilliance? Also in doubles do we still only get two bans or do we get three given the larger stagelist? And does "MBR5 shortened stagelist" mean no Stadium?

Or maybe I should just wait until the updated rules/info packet, lol.

Excitement building in my bones.

 

[standardtoaster]

4 entrants for brawl

hype double elimination

 

[Rusty Shacklefurd]

same here ^

Do you still need teammate? I do. Team? Eh? Why must it be so much harder to find teammates 1 week before the event!?!

 

[KishPrime]

Some thoughts
If Rusty Shacklefurd cannot find a teammate for Melee, I'm entering Melee teams twice.

Brawl will be amazing, just wait and see.

There will be 3 rounds of pools for Melee. There will not be an official amateur bracket, considering you get 9-10 tournament matches already...but there will be plenty of time for friendlies. Heck, with the number of TVs we have, there should be plenty of setups even during Round 2 pools for Melee and during all of the brackets. You could probably run an "amateur bracket" during Round 2 pools with all the players eliminated from Round 1.

It looks like the TVlayer ratio will indeed be sub-3. Which is amazing. People came through big-time on setups, and we'll fill in the holes as much as we can. In the last-minute rush, we actually went up to 73 cubes with Melee...not even counting Wii's. Oh well. I'm sure people will find places to set the ones we can't use up in rooms at night and such, which will make the event as a whole better.

You have no idea how much I longed for an event like this, omg....!!!!

 

[DoH]

We aren't in danger of a Pound 5 fiasco with such a low turn out are we Kishes?

 

[The Star King]

You might as well do Round Robins

 

[What's The Point]

4 people? Sounds like a FFA.

 

[Strong Badam]

Certainly not. No such contractual hotel room filling that could possibly cause that, and with the current turnout we've got a pretty decent prize pool as it is. Perhaps lower than e.g. Genesis or APEX, but that's to be expected with the lower turnout + no sponsorship.

I'll do my best.

 

[Xtra]

i like the idea of the "amateur" tournament. someone should plan on running that. someone other than me.

 

[Boat Mode]

So I'm confirmed to have 2-3 setups in my room from friday night till wednesday morning.

GET HYPED

 

[OhMyGodItzMouf]

DoH I don't think you have the physical, mental, or genital stamina to even begin to fathom the amount of poo my DK has been slinging these days. If I have some extra money at the tournament I may mm you.

Also ANYBODY that doesn't have a teams partner and wants to team lemme know, I use peach in teams, not DK.

 

[chillindude829]

Project m money matches??

 

[j00t]

Lack of brawl makes me extremely happy.

Subbing for updates
