The champion's belt

[MaskedMarth]

Imagine an champion's belt that is passed every time the current champion loses a tournament set. What would be the full list of champions throughout Melee's history?

Suppose we begin with TG4 with Ken's victory. Having claimed the belt in January 2003, he was not eliminated from tournament for a year and a half, though I know Chillin beat him at Game Over so the belt passed through a couple hands before returning to Ken via Azen. At TG6 he lost the belt to Sastopher, who lost it to Azen, who lost it to Captain Jack before taking it back.

After that I don't know. It probably found its way back to Ken at some point, Sastopher touched it at FC3, it was handed off a bit during MLG. I don't know if Ken ended up with it when he retired or whether PC Chris/M2K/KDJ/Chu were tossing it amongst themselves.

Anyways, it would be cool if we could figure out the chronology of the champion's belt. Anybody in?

It'll be pretty easy to track after the new SSBPD is launched.

No really, he was literally awarded a belt for that.

And yeah, he had a limo. Would have made him look like a dumb **** if he lost the tourney.

Yeah but it was owned by Malfoy the entire time.

I'm the one who planned pretty much our whole USA trip.
The limo for 2 hours divided among 10 people (Armada also paid his share) was just as expensive as 10 train tickets to the airport, not to mention we would've needed a ride (or many) to the train station from the venue.

Sorry to make it look less cool, but it was still a nice experience =).

naww it's still cool man
I thought zoler said something about it being a congrats, but I may have misheard.

 

[ajp_anton]

Well we kind of let everyone think it was because we *knew* he would win and so on, hype etc, but it's been so long now so whatever, it was simply the best option for us to get to the airport =).
