Set Flow

In your initial PM, please give your opponent the stage you would like to use if you lose the first or second matches. That stage should be picked by both users. You can choose to pic your counterpick stage after your first match if both players are active in the IRC.

Match 1: Smashville
Match 2: Stage picked by loser of Match 1.
Match 3 (if required): Stage picked by loser of Match 2.


Both players must turn items off and select the chosen stages. Brawl's online randomly chooses one players settings.


Tournament Format:

This tournament will be composed of two stages.

Stage one:
The 40 participants who are already signed up have been broken down into 8 groups of 5 people. Which group you were placed into was based off of your seed, which we obtained from the results of singles tournament #1. Which Group you belong to is posted below.

For this stage in the tournament, you will play each member in your group in a best of 3 match. The settings and counter picking method are explained above. The two players within each group with the best records after every game has been played, will move on to the championship bracket. To get a better idea of how this will work read here.

Stage Two:
The top two records in each group will move on to a 16 man double elimination Championship bracket. In this stage, the starting Neutral stage will be chosen before each Round is played. All other settings remain the same. You can view either our Teams #1 Bracket or our Giant Singles #1 Bracket to see how this will work.

The 3 players in each group who don't make it to the championship bracket will move on to a 24 man Double Elimination bracket. This is purely a bragging rights/ future seedings bracket.

For the championship round in Both the Championship Bracket and Bragging Rights Bracket, the matches will be played best 3 of 5 instead of best 2 of 3. In the event the loser's bracket champion wins the first championship round, a second round must be played and the winner of that round will be crowned Champion.


Posting Results:
The OP will be updated with the current standings within each group. After your match is played, one person from the match should come in here and post the results. Include who won each round, characters used and counterpick stages in your results.

For Example:

Milabrega Pit over Relix Luigi on Smashville
Milabrega Pit over Relix Luigi on Yoshi's Island (Brawl)

or

Milabrega (Pit, Pit) over Relix (luigi, luigi) Yoshi's Island

Since the starting stage is known you only need to list the counter picked stages.



Communication:


We will be using the same PM system we did for Tourney #1, it helps us keep track of participation. You should PM each member in your group with the times you will be available to play, and your counterpick stage. Post in this thread when you have PM'd the other members in your group and when you receive another's PM.

Its also encouraged you use our irc channel (#Gaf_WFC on GlobalGamers.net) to coordinate matches and to wait for your opponent to get online at your scheduled times. If you both plan on using the irc to communicate for the fight, you do not need to send your Counter Pick stage through PM. Though it should be mentioned in your opening PM whether you want to use the irc or not.


To use IRC:

Go to http://mibbit.com/.
Click on the drop tab and select GlobalGamers.net (half way down the list)
Enter "#Gaf_WFC" in the channel section
Choose a Nick
Click Connect and wait a second for it to start.

Also we made an irc channel for us gaffers playing nintendo wi-fi stuff.

server: irc.globalgamers.net
channel #gaf_wfc

One web based method of getting on:

http://www.globalgamers.net/?p=webchat
use gaf_wfc as the channel name.

Chatzilla seems to work as well in which to get to us you would type "/server irc.globalgamers.net" and then "/join #gaf_wfc".

And this is another link to a web based version:

http://irc.netsplit.de/webchat/?net=GlobalGamers&room=#GAF_WFC
just type in your nick.

Pretty sure you can get on through pidgin as well if you happen to use that already.

Makes things a lot more convenient to set up games and stuff.

Pool Groups:

Bolded Players Advanced to the Championship Bracket. Group 2 did not finish enough matches, so Vanish advances for their second seed. Group 3's seeders were based on activitey and partially records since no one clinched for them.

One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.
Join IRC please, you guys have no idea how much easier organizing your matches are when you're all in one place.

Icana vs me will be epic. We just had some spar matches, but I will fight him later. So, I am kinda rusty on Brawl, I barely even play it so yeah... if I don't make it far sorry =P

I see nothing but 2-0s so far. Inductive reasoning leads me to conclude that every match will be a 2-0, which means that I'm going to go 0-8 in my pool confirmed. Why must I be so bad at Brawl? ;_;

I'll drop you a line. And you are SO not doomed (or d00med, for that matter).

LOLZ @ your utterly false prediction. Smash God, perhaps, but Nostradamus you are not. :lol

thats my partners info.

u said he wud be a sub right Mila/Nab?

Think we'll be tossing him in group 2 so have him play whoever in there. If omega drops he fills in and if not...we have one extra in group 2, which shouldn't be too much of a problem except last place might have to get dropped in that group from the pride bracket as well. And if someone else happens to drop later on and omega comes back, then we could null whatever matches he already played and move him to whatever group has the real drop. I figure just give him the head start now for a likely drop and worst case scenario some people get a couple extra games of practice in.

So yea just say he's in group #2 now and go from there.

Crimmey and JCX are among the best here so let's be fair, unless he lost against the others that hasn't been reported in this thread yet.

If you wanna Brawl we can do it now.

Relix (Luigi) vs Icana (Ike)
Relix (Luigi) vs. Icana (Ike)(Shadow Moses)

As I said... epic games :D Both ended up being 1 stock wins. I used Luigi, he used Ike. The aftermatches were good, but they were even laggier for me than the tourney ones >_<. So, I still keep my Ike Beating PhD =P
 

Relix

ruffles said:
No, it was Relix's fault for the lag. He lives in an island :p

You edited your post, Icana. lol

It was laggy for me, but the 2 aftermatch games were awfully laggy with framedrops and all. In fact I was gonna suggest that anyone who faces me host one and I host another one... or something like that, since many are having lag problems with me. It's weird though, I faced some guys from the UK and they were practically lagless, and many more from Smashboards, but I only have lag with GAF players, wtf :lol Stupid broken online code.

And hey Icana, Ike is a beast with lag =O.
 
Was he? Your Luigi and Toon Link pummeled me in the air. XD My left trigger finger has failed me. :(

Edit: Alright, that's done. Waiting for you, Halycon.

^ That was unexpected! Seeing surprises already! :D

On a funny note, I finished off Icana in the last game with an accidental Luigi torpedo. Funny thing? It misfired out of all moments and hit him straight on. I laughed for well 2 minutes.

Replied to ruffles' PM earlier, hope to get a game in tonight.

I'm open to play anyone else in group 1 as well if they're on.

EDIT: Just to note, every match ended with us at one life each.

Group #2 now has a 6th member. His account hasn't been approved yet so you need to contact Crimmy via PM or through the IRC. Its not 100% certain that Omega has dropped out, but it looks likely, thats why we're putting his sub in early.

If by Thursday you haven't heard from a member of your group let me know.

Get your matches done ASAP. Groups 4 and 8 are on their way to being finished. Already.

And please use the irc to coordinate matches, it makes things much easier.
