This is a tournament right but I don't quite understand whats going on and also wheres illinois!

 

[Gates]

and also wheres illinois!

Michigan isn't on here either. What's up with that?

 

[Realest07]

ya i didnt see MI either but i found my pool in the midwest thanks to the master list...anyways my question is how do we know who we have to fight?? i see the list of people in my pool...is it just simply fight every1 in your pool at least once or do we have certain people that we are to fight? because when i read the rules i got the idea that we had a certain amount of matches to complete.

 

[PolarBearz]

yeah i would like to know what realest said as well

 

[domiNate]

Did we have to sign in by 2 am or 2 pm?

is great sea tournament legal? its not on the ban or legal list

 

[Xsyven]

is great sea tournament legal? its not on the ban or legal list

That's because there's no level named Great Sea. If you're thinking of Pirate Ship, then yeah, it's legal.

 

[imtired]

ok thanks, i alwas forget its name...

how does tomorrow work?

 

[Aaryk]

How would you like us to post match results? Some tournaments I have participated in have us post pool results in bulk, where we just copy the list of people in the pool and attach a W or L next to their name. Would you prefer that, or just post as we go?

 

[Xsyven]

how does tomorrow work?

Tomorrow, starting at noon, the top two competitors of each pool will move onto a single elimination bracket. Each round will have deadlines. If you miss a deadline, you'll be disqualified. First round lasts until 2:30, second until 4, third until 5, fourth until 6, etc-- all EST.

Times are subject to change. So stay tuned for official times.

Just make a new post. Example:

I just beat Xsyven.

Simple as that. I'll then edit the first post with:

AAYRK

L:

Only three people in my pool actually registered. What happens if each of us loses to one opponet but wins against the other. This would give us all a record of 1-1. Seeing as only the top two from a pool advance how would this be worked?

EDIT: Its not really a problem anymore in my pool because the 3rd competitor dropped just now but I'm sure this will still be a situation in which other pools are in.

 

[swim2007]

you will PROBABLY just have to play eachother once more to break the deadlock if this happens. Same rules apply as the first matches

 

[BX3]

Seems the only people that entered in my pool was me and Lord Atma. Does that mean that we advance automatically?

 

[M3D]

If only two people are in the pool, then you both advance to the brackets. However, you must still play one another for seeding the brackets tomorrow. So find your opponent and play a match!

 

[Impossibilities]

What if your comp and your wii are 2 stories apart from each other, will that make tournements too much of a hassle?

 

[swim2007]

i dont get the problem lol? Is it a lag issue?

 

[TuRk E]

Is the first pool all we're doing today?

 

[Scav]

Correct. After today, the winners of pools advance to brackets.

 

[imtired]

if i attempt to contact someone in my pool and they arent online for a match by 10 does it count as a loss for both of us or just him? hes the 3/3 person in my pool and one of us needs to lose so the top 2 are determined

 

[M3D]

If he doesn't reply in the thread to set up a time to play, then he automatically loses at 10pm. Just make sure to post in the thread saying you are attempting to set up the match.

 

[orintemple]

Are you guys going to have a new thread for the brackets tomorrow?

I won all the matches in my pool so I don't want to miss anything.

 

[King~]
