I didn't want to post anything about the details of my matches, since the knowledge might give an advantage to future opponents (not concerned too much about myself, but I thought it would be rude to give away something about my first opponent). I switched characters for all matches, but I should have stuck with my first. I won the first match but lost the second two.

 

[Firestorm]

All right, then. I'd like to be a sub, please (S'that mean I'll play people who didn't get a reply PM from their should've-been opponents?)

yep.

Er, I need you to post all the required information preferrably in the format the first post uses.

 

[dragonlife]

Ack! Sorry >_>

I responded to Superbank's PM. And just to clear some stuff up... the first match is on Yoshi's Island, then we choose a stage to do a rematch on? And if the loser wins in the rematch, there's one more match, which is the final deciding match? Or am I confused?

 

[Jiggy]

There's something ironic about how the two best Brawl GAFers I've played against online are either not entered in this tournament or entered only as a sub.

 

[Einherjar]

PM sent to Crimmy.

 

[justchris]

Just sent my PM to BudokaiMR2.

Yes. First match on Yoshi's Island, then you rematch on the stage the LOSER picked, then if needed rematch on the stage the last person picked.

So let's say it goes like this. superbank wants Pirate Ship, you want Halberd.

First Match: Yoshi's Island. Winner: Dragmire
Second Match: Pirate Ship. Winner: superbank
Third Match: Halberd. Winner: superbank

Winner: superbank

Just PM'd Armubaba

 

[Hatchet Man]

BlueSummers won our match.

 

[BlueSummers]

BlueSummers won our match.

Good match man. We should play online from time to time.

 

[Hatchet Man]

Good match man. We should play online from time to time.

Sounds fun I look forward to our next match.

 

[tmdorsey]

Still haven't received a PM from my opponent.

 

[yeb]

KevinCow vs. yeb

Match 1: Yoshi's Island, Olimar (K.Cow) vs Snake (yeb) - Winner: K.Cow
Match 2: Skyworld, Olimar (K.Cow) vs. Snake (yeb) - Winner: K.Cow
Winner: KevinCow

First match was crazy, he had a great comeback and finished me with a spike when he was at over 100%. Second match was all him, so I may need to rethink my counterpick stage. >_>
GGs again to KevinCow

 

[Jiggy]

I'm not sure whether I'm more surprised that people keep sticking to one character or that nobody yet has reported picking Smashville. I get thrown into Smashville almost perpetually when I'm online. >_>

Edit: I like that stage, though; not a complaint. In another thread I actually said that I hope that and Yoshi's Island because the standard tourney stages for Brawl, instead of Final Destination with its recovery-killing edge that sticks out.

 

[Vanish]

we're supposed to post our pms to our opponent right?

just Sent this to SuperAngelo64:

hey i got you for the smash tourney right? im free all day tomorrow (march 23rd). i live in eastern time. Let me know when you can play

 

[Phaethon0017]

1st: Yoshi's Island - Winner Phaethon0017
2nd: Battlefield - Winner XiaNaphyrz
3rd: Final Destination - Winner XiaNaphyrz

Winner XiaNaphyrz

 

[XiaNaphryz]

GG Phaethon, that one double KO we had at one point was rockin.

Firestorm, quick question for ya. What is the calendar window going to be for each round? I'm going to be out on vacation from April 12 to the 19 and I'd hate to have to drop out on account of that.

 

[biggkidd32]

yeah I'm still waiting for my opponent to respond too.

 

[Enk]

The match was tense and xaxor0 fought with all his heart, but my sword and stumps came out victoriously in the end. Now I need to go wash my controller. It's covered in sweat juices.

First Match: Yoshi's Island. Winner: Enk
Second Match: Battlefield. Winner: Enk
Winner: Enk

 

[OgnodoD]

Jiggy, I've been unable to get my online for Brawl to work at all. It doesn't matter whether it's someone I've swapped codes with or just a random match. I think I'm going to have to forfeit. I'm sorry. I'll find a way to make it up to you. (Free VC game or something of that nature. )

So you go online and then can't connect? Have you tried getting others to connect to you? How about the tips in the wireless networking thread?

 

[SantaC]

pm sent

 

[Relix]

Einjehar or Crimmy, you guys had your fight yet? Cuz I am ready for the next one

 

[biggkidd32]

I still need an opponent.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

I still need an opponent.

You do know you're playing Pillowknight, right? Or do you mean he's not replying to your PMs?

Anyhoo, Firestorm can you answer my vacation question?

 

[OliveJuice]

If you can get others to connect to you but cannot connect to others, it's most likely a port forwarding problem. If you cannot connect at all then I'm not really sure what's wrong. Either way, try DMZing your Wii and see if that works.

 

[Arol]

Einjehar or Crimmy, you guys had your fight yet? Cuz I am ready for the next one

Actually on this note I'm wondering if we'll be able to do our next round match if its available?

Or should we wait until next round begins?

 

[bigmakstudios]

I'm a bit confused. Who should I be playing?

 

[Relix]

Actually on this note I'm wondering if we'll be able to do our next round match if its available?

Yeah the faster the better.

 

[Arol]

I'm a bit confused. Who should I be playing?

According to the bracket Zozz, I think XiaNaphryz confused you with BiggKid who is playing Pillowknight.

 

[Manabanana]

Still haven't heard back from Ril. I wanna get my smash on

 

[biggkidd32]

yeah i haven't been able to get in touch with PillowKnight.

 

[Arol]

Well the first round didn't actually begin until today and ends on Tuesday. Some of us just had time to do matches beforehand.

Hopefully they haven't bothered to check mostly because they assumed it wouldn't start until today.

 

[JoeFu]

just played against SantaC who had a nice G&W


First match on Yoshi's Island I won by 1 stock i think
Second match on Smashville Santa won by 2 i think
Third match on Green Hill Zone I won by 2.

So I guess I pass on.

 

[Economan]

Punjabiplaya wins.

 

[PunjabiPlaya]

Punjabiplaya wins.

Yes, but they were some REALLY close matches, especially the second match, I thought I was done for when I had +60% damage and you had none. >_<

 

[Iam Canadian]

Oh, shoot, almost forgot about this.

I PM'd my opponent, awaiting reply.

 

[Firestorm]

GG Phaethon, that one double KO we had at one point was rockin.

Firestorm, quick question for ya. What is the calendar window going to be for each round? I'm going to be out on vacation from April 12 to the 19 and I'd hate to have to drop out on account of that.

I was going to go with 3 days per round. But if you make it that far I'll probably get a bit more lenient as there'd be fewer people and most likely active people left. Making catching up a lot easier than it is in the earlier rounds. Stick with it.

 

[usea]

I'm not sure whether I'm more surprised that people keep sticking to one character or that nobody yet has reported picking Smashville. I get thrown into Smashville almost perpetually when I'm online. >_>

I picked smashville as my counterpick. I couldn't agree more about yoshi's island and smashville. Battlefield is good too, but smashville is definitely my favorite level.

Acerac and I have set a match time. I can't wait, should be fun.

 

[Firestorm]

My favourite stages at the moment are Halberd, Pirate Ship, Yoshi's Island, and Smashville. The first two due to the music and character association more than anything I think :lol

 

[Firestorm]

We might just have 3 prizes, even replacing mine. Gonna confirm and then post it.

Oh and I missed it, but you can move one round ahead if you'd like but please tell me that it's the next round when you report it. The bracket this time is easy enough to follow that you can actually tell who your next opponent is.

 

[Teknoman]

yeah i haven't been able to get in touch with PillowKnight.

Same here, havent recieved a reply from RevnantKioku (my first match up) either.

So I might end up having to fight a sub.

 

[JSnake]

DeceitDecide beat me 2-1. Great games, though. All of them were extremely close.

 

[DeceitDecide]

Round One: DeceitDecide v. JSnake

First Match: Yoshi's Island. Winner: JSnake
Second Match: Frigate Orpheon. Winner: DeceitDecide
Third Match: Shadow Moses Island. Winner: DeceitDecide

Winner: DeceitDecide

 

[slayn]

It's kind of scary that all the people I've played and think are pretty good are losing

 

[biggkidd32]

Round One: biggkidd32 v. PillowKnight

First Match: Yoshi's Island. Winner: biggkidd32
Second Match: Final Destination. Winner: biggkidd32

Winner: biggkidd32

 

[Bloodwake]

I got a response PM, we are probably going to play Monday at 9 PM EDT

Preferred stages:

Smashville (9)
Battlefield (5)

(Noting, of course, that Yoshi's Island had to be played on in all rounds, so using it as a counterpick would naturally be rare. >_>)


Edit: This is getting exciting! And by "this" I mean, of course, keeping track of stats. >_>

 

[slayn]

slayn vs Kusagari
round 1: Yoshi's Island slayn(Ike) vs Kusagari(Diddy) - slayn wins
round 2: Delfino Plaza slayn(Ike) vs Kusagari(Lucas) - slayn wins
round 3: Yoshi's Island slayn(Ike) vs Kusagari(Lucas) - slayn wins

slayn wins

Kusagari wanted a 3rd round, so we played 3 anyway.
