LOL thumbs will be sad to hear that, he took a match off of you at the Shell Shocked you came to, he played green falcon.

VBM the placings in pools determine what seed you get in your next pool, but not which pool specifically you go into, that will be randomly generated and then manually adjusted by plank, just like round 1, although I think he will be paying less attention to location as the rounds go on.
Ok thanks. Too bad, it's random I would have liked to practice for everything up until the 3rd round.

2nd round of pools will consist of (2) 1 seeds, (2) 2 seeds, and (2) 3 seeds. top 3 advance again.
Is it randomly generated like Chred said or can I figure out who I'd play against dependent on where I place in my pool and guessing what the placement of specific other pools would be?

LOL I hate my tag so very often I'll just play people a lot and they'll know me by face without knowing my tag. So I get a lot of "oh YOU'RE thumbs?!" later on lol I've played tuar a lot. He probably just knows what I look like and not my tag haha

Any news to whats gonna happen to this Plank?

1. SleepyK
1. C
1. Silent Spectre
1. Aeon2.6
1. Negi

Both Aeon and Negi are from PR. I suggest moving Negi away since hes a good Falcon and SS is falcon too! tbh this is a kinda hard pool!


1. kail
1. Zeke Fox Sec. Mario/Falcon
1. UltimaScout Link
1. Black Jinjo
1. HAT
Any news about these other people in bold?!

Seems like SilentWolf, Eggm, and M2K need another known name in their pool. ;)

Edit:

1. Toph
1. IHaveSpaceBalls
1. PhatGamer
1. Col Bol
1. DJRome

Hey I recognize every name in this pool!

lol HAT is a sheik player mostly but he also plays other characters pretty well and often picks based on the matchup, he mostly brawls but he's still really good at melee, he's first or second seed in your pool.

Silent Wolf's pool looks almost as difficult as yours.. I dunno.

Top 5 death pools imo:

1. Darkrain/Reno/Replicate/TeeAyEye/Nova
2. IHSB/Toph/Phatgamer/Colbol/DJRome
3. Lambchops/Zoso/DashDanceDan/4%/Cobalt
4. Sanuzi/D20/Armada/CubaIsDeath/Hazz (I'm assuming this is Hazzard)
5. Silent Wolf/TafoKints/Tyranitar/CashMoney/P.O.F/Remen

nawwww dawg don't be sleepin' on tafokints

The Tafokintz Chain

Now we get to the funnier chains. We start with the Tafokintz chain. For those of you who don't know Tafokintz, he's a player from UCLA. This chain represents those players who, like Tafokintz, are SO F***ING BAD that they're good. They're smart, otherwise they'd see no success. However, these players have certainly tested their opponents' patience on several occasions with some ******** no sense strategy. It's harder to find the "bad" in the more successful players of this chain, but trust me, they're REALLY bad. So bad that they're kinda good.

Distinguishing Characteristic:
These players tend to take great pride in playing like dumbs***s. Just listen to larry next time he tries to talk about his style.

Well considering that, last I heard, Colin is grounded from pound, my pool will probably be bottom 1 doesn't make it out...

Hey Jon,

Brawl has a miscount, there are actually only 198 people on there

6 of them are doubles only...which means

WE HAVE PERFECT POOLS, 32 OF 6, GOOD **** EVERYONE

No 7 or 5. No one gets jipped of an amazing experience. No one will have issues because they were in a weird pool. They will all be 6 players, 2 high level players, 3 mid level players, and 1 low level player is how it will usually work out.

In case you missed it jon, Brawl pools are done, just waiting for someone else to look it over

For the brawlies:

It looks like we can get this all done sunday. I will be pretty much a douche if you're not playing your matches (I might be a douche anyways)

If we start by 11am, with 1 setup per pool, I have us running 5 hours at the worst in pools, putting us to 4pm.

at 4pm, we'll do doubles pools, which will have half as many and double the setups per pool, so that'll be about 3 hours at the worst.

At 7pm we'll so singles pools round where again, half as many means double the setups per pool, so it'll take another 3 hours to finish up.

Edit: I'm not posting pools until I talk to VGBootcamp, sorry

We can finish faster than that, ALSO having buffer time if it runs further behind.

The faster we finish, the better it is for you all.

since slhoka isn't going, is there anyone from Europe who would be willing to buy me a PAL version of melee?

I'd pay you back plus a little extra, of course

Remen is a Dutch fox main, I'm pretty **** sure because... well I've seen him play. Also zgetto is the other one of the best foxes in Europe (it's debatable) and I'm pretty sure they'll **** this tourney.

I actually know someone willing to sell it right now, but i wouldn't be able to get it before pound. I could sell you my own and just get that one later myself, but be aware that the manual is in bad condition (got very wet once).
How much would you be willing to pay? I'll see if i can get it off his hands for that :)

i don't mind the manual thing (unless it says something really cool? :laugh: ), as long as the disc is in pretty good condition

I have no idea what the going rate is so throw me a number and if it doesn't sound ridiculous I'd probably do it

PM if you want

The ssbm manual in danish actually says alot of funny things because of hillarious translations. You wouldn't get it anyway though :p (edit: And you can also easily read my manual. It didn't get THAT wet. Just one of my friends turning over a glass of soda on it... =L)

I'll pm you later :)
