GafBats Season 3: SSF4 AE 2012 | 9 weeks of getting bodied!!

RrqQZ.jpg


The Ranbat is Character Locked. You get one main

WT1n8.jpg


Seeding Week plays out only once.
It determines your standing within the pools before the Ranbat begins.

You must play everyone in your starting pool ONCE in a single match @ 3 rounds.
Every round you win is worth 0.5 points, for a maximum of 1.

qSGaM.jpg


In effect, you are only playing 2 ranked matches every Ranbat week.
You must play your opponents at best 2 out of 3 matches (@ 3 rounds each).

Players will rise / fall in the pools based on their scores every week. The OP will keep this updated.
If there is a tie in determining pool movement, the players involved will play ONE match @ 3 rounds to break the tie.

hZ2yM.jpg


A round won is still worth 0.5 points, for a maximum of 1 point per set.
This means you can get some points per round even if you don't win the set; i.e. winning 1 round in each set but losing 2-0 = 1 point.

There is a bonus for winning 2 straight sets: 3 points instead of 2.
If you win these 2 straight sets without losing any rounds (a perfect score), the bonus is then 4 points.

A no-show will be given a 0-2 set record.
This player doesn't lose points, but his opponent gets rewarded as if he had won every round, for a clean 2 points.

Players who make no attempt to arrange for a match may receive -1 points for the week.

In the event of a disconnect, the match must continue at the exact point where it was dropped off; i.e. if it was 1 round to 0 rounds you will give back that round then resume the match. Every effort must be made to replicate the amount of meter stocks each player had coming into the new round.
The match must be resumed before the Ranbat week closes, or it will be treated as a no-show towards the party who severed the connection.

htH24.jpg


Example Best of 3: 2-1, 2-0
or
1-2, 2-0, 2-1

***Arranging matches are the individual players' responsibilities.
You have an entire week in which to get your matches done. Get together, make it happen.
******

Means to facilitate this:
- GAF PM
- The excellent GAF Ranbat IRC Chat.
- XBL message, or PSN chat room; contact me for the latter if you do not already have access.

Yay! I'm free every night after 8 Pacific, Group D people! So either PM me or come into IRC cause I'm there way too much anyway.

I'll add you guys on GFWL later tonight too.

Any of you guys on right now? I can get some of these out of the way right now! I'll hop on dat irc and sign into psn.

LET'S DO THIS SHIT

EDITING FOR RESULTS
 
PSN Group B:

I am available weeknights (except thursdays) from pretty much 8-10pm PST. weekends are kinda random, so it would be best to add me and msg on psn or pm me here on GAF.

Also, maybe a note should be made in the OP about a scoring quirk: even though a player can win the match by winning two sets, there can still be a tie score. Example:

Based on rounds won

A B
2 1
0 2
2 1

Player A wins based on winning 2 sets, but the overall score is tied at 2-2

edit: question: what if the connection is deemed unbearable by both players? does that result in a 2-2 tie?

I want to record my matches (and anyone who wants me to record their let me know, if I am available I will). What's the best software for this though, FRAPS seems kinda meh.
 
Turning my PS3 on right now, will be available only for the next 3 or so hours (gonna watch the POTUS debate), and then available after that all the way until Wednesday.

CHALLENGE OR DIE, THE OUTCOME IS THE SAME.

Group A PC people:

I'm generally available from 6:30 PM PST - 12 AM M, W, F; 10:30 PM - 12 AM T, Th and around most of the time on weekends. Will be adding people on GFWL when I get home, best way to actually setup matches will probably be on IRC since I don't play 360 or GFWL games very often.
 
wait are we only counting points for people in our same pool? and its 1 match, 3 rounds is weird, or maybe my definition of what a match and a round is different...
