Tamoo you only played 4 different people at the last bracket? I played 5 and only ended up 9th =¬_¬;= I swear everyone else got byes and I had to fight my way much further. Bring back pools to even that out!

I just watched the match of Tamoo vs Chrisboi.

Tamoo you seriously need to start resting. I saw two BIG opportunties where you could of and Charles was shouting in the background.
When a mart countered right next to you and you were in your sheild, and another opportunity when the marth did a move right next to you and was lagging and all you needed to do is jump and rest.

Seriously you need to start taking these opportunities and be more daring.
Also I think you should be creating these opportunties cos not only do you not take advantage when you get the chance you dont really create them either. I dont mean upthrow rest by creating one btw lol

I knooow man, those two opportunities were ridiculous, I watch back regularly on horror. I stepped it up on battlefield, I was losing horribly on last stock and got a surprise nair rest on him to take the game

And yup, I got one bye, you, Unreal, chrisboi, fuzzy, then chrisboi again, so 5 matches, four different ppl.

Yeah I think it's about time we brought back pools.

Its the way normal tournament are done anyway and it constructs the brackets how they should be bcos it dependant on your placement in the pools and if people have certain opinions of where people are in the community and they arent in that place it could affect the tournament if we did brackets straight away.

So we might aswell do pools just to make things as fair as possible and also let the new people get more games in.

Plus it also drives people to atleast say they placed somewhere in the tournament and got out of pools so dont forget the physicological impact of pools.

Nah im pretty sure it was first match of second set, we were just talking about battlefield before the match, and battlefield came up and we kinda smiled at eachother. You wouldnt have died off the side from a rest on 20 on dreamland, regardless of DI lol.
I didnt win on DL64 so it couldnt of been that, except for the very first match, which i didnt do much in, never mind rest lol.

What do you mean hugo?

Lol pools sounds good to me. Generally the more matches people get the better it is and the happier everyone is lol

I will bring my setup the only reason i didn't bring it last time is becuase at the Aug 29th monthly someone stole my memory card.

So you lost in your 5th set and get 3rd, I lose in my 5th set and get 9th. Seems... fair? Definitely go back to pools :p (This isn't actually a *****y post, just saying)

And yeah, once you become more confident with rest your jiggz will be terrifying. I'll win one of our sets in the future, just wait :)

Dacacia: You seem to misunderstand the bracket system, because chrisboi lost to me in winners, he needed to play an extra match over me to get to losers final. If you go to losers quickly, your bound to have to play more matches, its how it is.

And your always quite close to me, taking games and **** so just keep up the improvement man

you guys ust be taking some long *** route to get here, i suggest if you ever plan on coming to play us stay away from piccadily and get your *** on the metro asap lol makes it soooooo much quicker :)

Yeah I think it's about time we brought back pools.

Its the way normal tournament are done anyway and it constructs the brackets how they should be bcos it dependant on your placement in the pools and if people have certain opinions of where people are in the community and they arent in that place it could affect the tournament if we did brackets straight away.

Plus it also drives people to atleast say they placed somewhere in the tournament and got out of pools so dont forget the physicological impact of pools.
its the way normal tournaments are done when the tunrout exceeds a straight bracket format (usually 32)
also the need for opinoins can become useless in tio bracket seeding if data is used from other tournaments, seriously the programme its genius does everything for you!!!

but yeah i suggest if the turnout is 32+ do pools as this eliminates byes and other gay ****!

Before, i was really busy because i had exams to do. So, I could not go to any smashfest. But now, I can go to some smashfest. Right now, I am trying to get good at Brawl again because I have lost some of my techniques. :laugh:

I think for pools, you should have groups of 8 or more, best out of 3 and have 2 setups to each group so we could get through it quicker. Then after that itl pretty much be straight forward. or would the pools take too long?
while SO unfortunatly unpractical, i wish it was done like this too - would reduce the chance of being fluked by a lesser player due to nerves

Finall you changed them and made them how they are suppposed to be.

ANOTHER IMPORTANT WARNING - This one actually pisses me off. If someone bans a stage that is on random, DONT TAKE IT OFF OF RANDOM. If the stage comes up just exit it. I saw people doing this and they said they would change it back but when I went on the cube after they forgot to put it back on random.

SERIOUSLY JUST PRESS L+R+A+Start and dont turn off the stage on random!!!

I'm looking forward to this anyway, mainly cos im guaranteed to win it :).

OUT OF LONDON PEOPLE - Im curious who is coming from outside of London for this, brawl and melee. no matter what level you are I still want to know.
So can you say if you're coming to this.
Esp. AmcD, VA and Jo3.
