man i hate that level

 

[Jiggy]

I'd like Flat Zone 2 so much if not for those murderous chair people with their murderous chairs of murderous pinball. D:

 

[Teknoman]

Yeah those things are brutal. One fenced in pinball session can cost you a match.

 

[Ashhong]

sent a PM to my opponent, radiuhm, yesterday for the first time, still no response.

Blizzard vs. Keru_Shiri

Round 1: Blizzard (Kirby) wins vs. Keru_Shiri (Ike) on Yoshi's Island
Round 2: Keru_Shiri (Pikachu) wins vs. Blizzard (Kirby) on Battlefield
Round 3: Blizzard (Kirby) wins vs. Keru_Shiri (Pikachu) on Smashville

Unfortunately, there was intermittant lag...I forgot to lagtest beforehand, and it seemed to work okay most of the time, with lag just cutting in. Sadly, a couple of those times killed keru, since he missed pikachu's double recover. :/ Close games though...good job.

So do I immediately try to find who I'm supposed to end up against next?

Wait wait, weren't we supposed to just fight twice if one person won both matches? I mean if it's best out of 3, thats how its supposed to go right?

 

[el jacko]

I can't get my Wii online right now, I won't be able to until way past the deadline for round 1. So, sixstringedpyscho wins our match automatically.

 

[MrCheez]

Just had two really good intense matches with Dreavus,

Match 1 - MrCheez (Olimar) versus Dreavus (Ganondorf) on Yoshi's Island - Winner: MrCheez
Match 2 - MrCheez (Olimar) versus Dreavus (MetaKnight) on Halberd - Winner: MrCheez

Thanks again Dreavus for the really fun matches!

Good stuff man, I was really starting to dread those purple Pikmin whenever they were next in line! lol

 

[Aladuf]

You can warm up on me.

That's what she said.

Spoiler

I'm sorry that was like a perfect set up!!

:lol

 

[MrCheez]

Good stuff man, I was really starting to dread those purple Pikmin whenever they were next in line! lol

Hahaha, and I was watching your Ganondorf so closely that it almost gave me a headache. He is scary to fight because I just know one good hit could so easily kill me. :lol I think you're the only Ganondorf I've ever played against now that I think about it... I've played as him a little bit, but none of my friends EVER select him.

Thanks again! We'll play again soon

 

[Blizzard]

Wait wait, weren't we supposed to just fight twice if one person won both matches? I mean if it's best out of 3, thats how its supposed to go right?

I thought we did that? We each won one, so then we went to a tiebreaker...

 

[scottnak]

This is probably why he's confused

Round 1: Blizzard (Kirby) wins vs. Keru_Shiri (Ike) on Yoshi's Island
Round 2: Keru_Shiri (Pikachu) wins vs. Keru_Shiri (Pikachu) on Battlefield
Round 3: Blizzard (Kirby) wins vs. Keru_Shiri (Pikachu) on Smashville

Probbaly just saw the right side and assumed

 

[Teknoman]

Bingo. :lol carry on.

 

[Keru_Shiri]

:lol
Yeah, don't use Pikachu if your connection is less than perfect. But it was a good match nonetheless. Blizzard, you really turned on the awesome for that last bout.

 

[SixStringPsycho]

Ok, Jacko couldnt fight me, so whos my substiponnent?

 

[Jiggy]

So the second Blizzard/Keru_Shiri match was really a Pikachu mirror, or was that a typo too?

 

[JoeFu]

I think I play Blizzard next looking at the bracket right?

And Jiggy, When I played Santa he was G&W for all games and I was Pika.

 

[Teknoman]

That'd be me... although not by much.

Well we'll get Firestorm to clear that up in the morning. Either way, hopefully the next match i'll remember to record all the replays.

Also we probably have to wait for Firestorm to confirm the initial stage we start on anyway, right?

 

[PunjabiPlaya]

Oh yea Jiggy, if you need to know who me and Economan used in our matches, I used Ike both matches and Econo used Ness.

 

[Osaka]

I had to skip my match with Guled til monday because of real life stuff, and then I completely forgot about it.

Guled's the winner by default since I'm an idiot.

You've got till Tueday night (March 25th) to complete the battle. Dont give up so easily

 

[Keru_Shiri]

So the second Blizzard/Keru_Shiri match was really a Pikachu mirror, or was that a typo too?

Nope, Blizzard was Kirby, all the way through.

 

[Jiggy]

Updated stats.

Nope, Blizzard was Kirby, all the way through.

Yeah, kind of thought so. Okay, good to know.

 

[Osaka]

You've got till Tueday night (March 25th) to complete the battle. Dont give up so easily

Oh, I thought it's this morning! Gotta do it when I get home from work then :O

EDIT: Yeah durr of course it means Wednesday morning for Europe. Silly me.

 

[Blizzard]

I edited my post. Sorry, I was dumb.

 

[Teknoman]

No one rated our replay video (<_>)

 

[MGrant]

Sorry for being away for a bit. I've had a lot of poetry assignments to take care of. I should be doing my match tomorrow without a problem, though.

 

[Firestorm]

Yeah probably shouldn't do second round matches yet as there seems to be some confusion and I haven't given the stage yet.

el jacko and SixStringPsycho, I've noted your issues and will give SixStringPsycho the win.

 

[MGrant]

I lost to kuro 2 games to 1. Good games, though. Sorry about the lag, I'm still in Texas until next week.

 

[projectkuro]

Just played my matches with MGrant.
Aw man, I don't know why, but I was extremely nervous the whole time.
I was going to go with Ness/Lucas, but after seeing you choose him on the first round, I didn't think I'd be able to beat your Ness with my Ness/Lucas, so I stuck with G&W.

There was a bit of input lag, maybe more so for you than me, but I could barely feel it on my side.

Great matches, I'd really like to play against you again, since we're on a very similar level.
And I forgot to save the replays =/

Results:
Game #1 - Yoshi's Island - MGrant (Ness) - Projectkuro (Game & Watch)
Game #2 - Smashville - MGrant (Ness) - Projectkuro (Game & Watch)
Game #3 - Final Destination - MGrant (Ness) - Projectkuro (Game & Watch)

Once again, thanks for the good games.

 

[MGrant]

I was going to go with Ness/Lucas, but after seeing you choose him on the first round, I didn't think I'd be able to beat your Ness with my Ness/Lucas, so I stuck with G&W.

Haha, that's pretty funny. Game & Watch is my secondary but I decided against using him because I would have been outclassed.

 

[SixStringPsycho]

Yeah probably shouldn't do second round matches yet as there seems to be some confusion and I haven't given the stage yet.

el jacko and SixStringPsycho, I've noted your issues and will give SixStringPsycho the win.

Thats good, but... Isnt there someone available that didnt got in the torunament that can replace el jacko? I want a fair win.

 

[Firestorm]

You'll be one of the last situations I'll replace because I know el jacko at least wants to be active.

 

[tmdorsey]

Me and Kevtones still haven't been able to setup a time to meet. I don't know whatelse to do now.

 

[A Human Becoming]

Hey Jiggy, where's the updated record huh? I don't feel like searching through all these posts to see if my next opponent has won yet.

 

[jibblypop]

dfyb killed me two in a row! :lol

good games man!

 

[dfyb]

dfyb vs jibblypop
round 1: [dfyb - King DeDeDe] beats [jibblypop - MetaKnight] on Yoshi's Island
round 2: [dfyb - King DeDeDe] beats [jibblypop - Ike] on Wario Ware Inc.

good games

 

[Milabrega]

Akia and I will be playing today at 4.

 

[infiniteloop]

Just PM'd infiniteloop my info, so still no confirmed date yet, but I'm flexible so I'm sure we'll work it out painlessly.

Toy Soldier's gonna kick my ass tonight at 7pm EST

 

[slayn]

Jiggy, why are you not keeping character stats?

Such as: Lucas being 4/12 (33% win) thus far.
and Ike being 9/13 (69.2% win)

 

[Jiggy]

Oh, believe me. I am. I just don't want to say anything for fear of influencing who picks who.

 

[slayn]

Oh, believe me. I am. I just don't want to say anything for fear of influencing who picks who.

What about the rest of us who want to know but are too lazy to figure it out =(

I wish to be able to tap into jigglesoft excel

 

[SuperAndroid17]

whatever , I give up messaging my opponent... either this guy has not been on Neogaf for the past week or... he has Private messages off.

Gamer @ Heart

 

[Osaka]

Meh, looks like that even in the end it came to schedule issues with me and Guled. Since I was the one who forgot about our previous set time, I think it's just fair that it's Guled's victory by default.

 

[Jiggy]

What about the rest of us who want to know but are too lazy to figure it out =(

I'll post them at the end of the tournament. That was the whole reason I started the tracking in the first place, after all--to say who picks who, and how often those characters win online on NeoGAF.
But if I said "Oh snap, this character has won 0% of his matchups even though he's been used 8 times :O" (there's nobody really like that, yet), it might be possible that suddenly people would stop picking that character and that would skew the results.

 

[Teknoman]

So have your predictions about user winnings still true so far? Because if you somehow get 100% the entire bracket...you need to take a weekend off in Vegas/Lousiana.

 

[Jiggy]

I got the joke SS4Gogita loss (DBZ name = lose), the slayn win (GAF hearsay claims he's awesome), the RevenantKioku loss (saw certain exploitable flaws in his style from his videos when he first got his Japanese copy), the Nabster92 win (same situation as slayn, except that I've actually played Nabster and know that GAF isn't kidding), the truendo loss (old in-game name), the MrCheez win (month of extra experience from the Japanese game, and I've played him to know he's really good), and the usea loss (he had said he wasn't adjusting to Brawl yet).

But I missed the Dechaios win. I figured Zeed was such an active poster in the Dojo thread because he played a lot of Smash Bros., so I thought maybe he'd be really good or something. >_> Oh, I'll probably also miss SuperAndroid17 losing (because, again, DBZ name = lose) because Gamer @ Heart won't show, but that doesn't count.


Whatever the case, I had only made predictions on a select few matches anyway.

Hey Jiggy, where's the updated record huh? I don't feel like searching through all these posts to see if my next opponent has won yet.

Well, we've officially hit page 10 and I don't know if people will go back to page 6 at this point (where I've been updating it), so here it is for page 10:
