Earlier would have been better. If you get on in the next hour we'll do it. Otherwise we'll have to wait until tomorrow :(

Finish Round 1 matches by Sunday night.

They are:
RIZEN v. LORD XAV1ER
KOTIERWOLF v. HEEROYUY


Going by all played matches, the current standings are:

Code:
Place Name      W:L Points Matches remaining
1.    Anonano    2:2  8          0
2.    Rizen      2:1  7          1
3.    Xav1er    2:0  6          2
4.    Kotierwolf 1:2  5          1
5.    Heero      0:2  0          2
Xav1er, Rizen and I are all tied in first place with the same number of wins--but why am I in first place then and Xav1er in 3rd? It's because I'm using "Points," or total number of wins throughout the tournament as a tiebreaker!
So does Xav1er have some serious ground to make up to get into first place? Actually, no--he still has two matches left to play while I'm completely finished. KotierWolf can tie with me for 2nd if he wins his next set (which will give him the +1 to his W:L ratio AND give him the 3 points he needs to tie with me: how convenient), but he needs Xav1er to lose not only both sets remaining versus Rizen and Kotier but he also needs to get less than 2 wins total if Kotier wants a tie for first place. But here's the catch: either Rizen or Xav1er winning will put both Kotier and I in a 2nd place tie at best as the player accumulates a 3 win W:L record. So the best Kotier or I can hope for is a 2nd place at this point.

Poor Heero has struggled throughout the tournament and remains winless. However, he can scrape a 4th place if he defeats Kotier 3-0 and at least manages a 3-2 win versus Xav1er. This is a very tall order, but can the representative of the Fierce Diety find the strength of the god within and seize 4th place?

Winning either set versus Rizen or Heero will guarantee the Water Tunic Link 2nd place in the tournament. But Xav1er is in a far better position than any other player to seize 1st place: victory versus Rizen will absolutely guarantee him 1st place in this tournament.

Rizen must get at least 1 win off of Xav1er if he hopes to take 2nd place. However, Rizen is not without a failsafe way to guarantee first place for the traditional tunic: If he takes Xav1er down 3-0 in a set of the ages he can snatch for Green the title of the Ultimate Link WiFi Color!

Have fun and may the odds ever be in your favor! :D

Welcome Iris! The only video's you'll see of my Link will be of that in Smash 64. It's still a pretty legit rep though.

It's totally cool Irisz. I'm planning to do another tournament later for the Link boards that will be open for everyone to participate. Not sure if I'm willing to do round robin if we've got over ten or eleven people, but at worst we can do double elimination. The whole point is to give people the opportunity to play everyone else, learn a little, and have a lot of fun. So bug me and I'll do another one soon :D

Anyways, this thread has up-to-date videos of active Link mains (including Bomber's SSB64 Link lol xD).
If you're looking for offline Links, Scizor is your man to watch; I've got a lot of videos up as well, but Scizor's playstyle is close to flawless.

For online, you'll want to check out Rizen and KotierWolf--although I warn you that Rizen's list of videos is quite...prolific.

Looking forward to getting to know you/play you!

And Kotier beats me 3-1. It got really intense towards the last two games.

P.S. Using MK in the friendlies was fun. I think I'll use him more often.

Guess I can get you both out the way today just let me know when ready.
I'll play now if you're up and able?

I'll be on Xat for a while. After that it will have to be in the evening or later.

Edit: I guess it will have to be tonight. If I don't play it's my fault and X wins. My sleep's been hell and I've been up all night.

Well, hopefully you guys got your match in.

In any case we'll let Xav1er and Heero play now and then if Rizen isn't feeling better still we'll go ahead and call it.
Heero v Xav1er

Let's get it done guys :D

Hey X can we Brawl tomorrow? I'll be free practically all day. I just underwent a stressful experience a half hour ago, and now I'm suddenly not in the mood to play.

I can play now. I'm on xat.

edit. Xat signed me out :(. I'll host so join when you're ready.

1 warm up. Then strike YI and FD.

Edit2, great xat goes down and now I can't get in touch with X :/. If we don't play he wins because I was late organizing it.
I'll be on AiB freeplay for a while and check back here too.

Welp now that I'm back from chores, I'm free the rest of the day (implying you haven't already left). All day tomorrow I'm also free.
