Jedi Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 https://challonge.com/fzy9wa06 Folks we're getting close. The 14th is looking fairly favorable, although it might be on the 15th depending on some folks. (It'll likely bleed into it anyways). The First of Many Tournaments to be hosted from the Serenes Smash Discord! (Can be joined here and I recommend it for those of you who aren't yet). https://discord.gg/x3SE9Hk 3 Stock, 8 Minutes Unfortunately due to the poor method of how lobbies work, all stages will be hazardless for the time being. Stages Starters Battlefield Final Destination Smashville Pokemon Stadium Town & City Counterpick Lylat Castle Siege Kalos Warioware Skyloft @Armagon @Robin126 @Johann @Slade @Tenders @Anthony @Florete @thecrimsonflash I recommend you lot join the discord even if you only use it for this, as that way match making can be very easily handled.

No specific time, as I have that day off, anytime folks can do their matches honestly from the 14th onward, I’d just rather as many matches that can be done get done. Did you wanna join?

thecrimsonflash Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 I was already on the discord also, can someone explain how tournaments work generally, I am not completely aware of how counterpick stages work, and are the matches best of three?

Anomalocaris Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Right, I'm here. I signed up when you last talked about this, anything specific I need to do here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I signed up when you last talked about this, anything specific I need to do here? Adding, my sheet wasn't updated for some reason! But mostly the discord would be the main thing to do while we wait since if we get everyone in there we can arrange the matches easier. 36 minutes ago, thecrimsonflash said: I was already on the discord also, can someone explain how tournaments work generally, I am not completely aware of how counterpick stages work, and are the matches best of three? Oops. Ok, so how a match generally works (yes you have a best of 3 for matches and best of 5 for finals). the two players will do something either rock/paper/scissors, flipping a coin or something like it to see who strikes a starter stage first (we have methods on discord too). The winner of the game strikes one stage of their choice. After this, the loser of the random game strikes two stages, then the winner strikes one last stage. The one remaining stage is used as the first stage for the set. So they effectively choose the starter from the 2 remaining stages The counterpick stages aren't used until after the first match, where in the person who won gets to strike two stages of their choosing before the loser picks what stage to go to, the pool of stages is the entire set at that point. You are also allowed to gentleman to a stage if you and your opponent agree to it, and in that case any stage may be chosen if you two agree on it.

Jedi Posted December 11, 2018 Author Share Posted December 11, 2018 Also bumping @Johann If Frida and the weekend are still awkward for you, maybe we can at least get one or two of your matches done early, I don't have a problem with people doing any of their sets early.

That'd be helpful, I'm going to be non-stop busy from Friday evening to Sunday night. Got Discord up, though I've never used it so hopefully I don't miss something important Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raven Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 As I said on Discord, I am unable to play until next week, but then I can probably join in a future tournament. Hopefully the distance between myself and others not in the UK/Europe and my Grandparents' internet won't give latency problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Horace Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 as someone who needs a refresher, how do character picks work? I'm sure it's blind pick for game one but afterwards how are character picks done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friday/Saturday is when I’d like a bulk of these to get done but I’m flexible. Can try to do some early if you’d like. Also the extra matches are just an unfortunate result of our odd number. Im also cutting off any future registers from this point on, so we have our full set now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedi Posted December 15, 2018 Author Share Posted December 15, 2018 Yeah it's going on, although I haven't heard from 3 of our people at all and if I don't here soon I might auto advance because all the rest of us have posted/etc either here or discord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
