Win10, and the xbox app is pretty much bigger issues that bog down a well made game. How do you make something worse than gfwl? Jesus fucking christ.

evo 2016 pools to be run on friday and saturday.
with probably 4k+ people enterring evo for sfv alone, i really can't see how they can run pools > top 8 in a single day. good move by wizard on that part.

Just as a FYI, Evo 2016 SFV pools will run both Friday and Saturday this year. #Evo2016

So this epidemiology class i'm taking has inspired me to try and take on an endeavor that has long been in the back of my mind:

Does being on the 1st or 2nd player side affect tournament placings?

i kinda want to tabulate the win rates based on a player starting on 1st player side and the other on the 2nd player side. it would take me watching all recorded matches and seeing if the player won the rounds and sets.

to account for confounding, eventually it could be broken down to different games or genres (anime vs regular). character type (charge vs command), and even controller type (stick vs pad).


of course people who go to tournaments are generally more motivated to improve their execution so it could introduce some bias into the study...

You would need to control for games that have P1/P2 biases. A bunch of older games have setups that only work on the P1 or P2 side. It can be drastic enough to affect tier placement, like with Duck King in FFRBS or V.Sion in MBAC. UMK3 has the "best" example of this since it gives hit trade advantage to one player randomly each round (so that one player always wins trade situations), but in turn there's a really goofy mechanic that allows the other player to do some combos that the player with trade advantage can't.

I know Daigo and Mago prefer playing on the 2P side :3

Some of the rooms are literally overlooking the venue area.

This actually sounds hype as hell. Are people going to be yelling into the venue to get people to come see them in random ass games? Reminds me of the old NEC venue, which had an open arrangement and from the ballroom doors you could see every room in the place. Made it real easy to find casuals for random-ass games.

Late reply but I don't think I explained it well enough. You can only play the games on the account that you personally use. So for example, since I decided to share games with my friend, my brother wouldn't be able to play those games if he signed into an account that wasn't my own on my PS4. Only one account on the PS4 would be able to play those games so you can still get trophies.

Somebody asked earlier what the ruleset for Pokken is. EVO just updated their ruleset.

POKKEN TOURNAMENT

Game version: US Nintendo WiiU
Game Settings: LAN Mode, Skill=Off, 2/3 Rounds, 2/3 Games, Stadium Only
Loser of last match may change fighter Pokemon
Both players may change assist sets and cheer type between matches

I don't have the game so I'm not sure why the only stage is Stadium.

Edit:

Stages have different sizes and meter powerup appearance/distribution rates on the field and it's either Random or Stadium when "picking" stages in LAN Mode. Not really sure why it's like that. There's nothing really broken about the other stages so I'm guessing not having the ability to choose what the players want to play on made them go with Stadium only.

I have the game and I have no idea why the only stage is Stadium.

Seeing as the main Smash 4 community is loving to prove the people that look down on them right so much these days, I can only hope it doesn't rub off on Pokken, game already has it tough as it is.

That's still hardly even close to a good reason for it, to be honest.

well, I'm just guessing. It'd probably be easier to just ask MrWizard why that rule is in place. All the tournaments I've watched so far have just stuck with Random and it doesn't seem like a big deal.
