Ok! Let's start getting people signed up for the tournament! Sign up order won't determine who gets matched up with who, but we want to see what number of people we'll have.
Match styles will be 5 stock, best of 3 with medium items. We'll determine which maps to use (or have it random and by WE I mean BlackandBlueEyes and Zerith).
So even if you have already said you'd like a tournament in my other SSBB thread (http://www.althanas.com/world/showthread.php?p=108563#post108563), post here again so I can update the list. So please put the desired Althanas account name and also the Wii name you'll be going under. If it's an acronym or initials, feel free to share them with us in parentheses.
Also either PM me your friend code or just post it along with your name to make it easier.

Likely either Ed_J or Kirk. Depends on the username I desire at the time.

Actually Wi-Fi Is a worldwide connection, so you could play us anyway.

Yeah...well the connection's not the problem. The problem is that I don't own a Wii. =P

I need to find a new favorite character. Jigglypuff's rest has been nerfed. not only is it even harder to hit with now, but it's way weaker too.
I'm thinking Metaknight or Kirby, but right now, I'm not too good with them. Andy proved that to me.
Actually, Items killed me for the most part. I kept self destructing, but I still need to get better before the tournament.
(Oh, and I changed up my taunts, Andy, because compared to yours, mine were lame.)

A good taunt should be one that infuriates your opponent while making everyone else chuckle. It's a tactic that might be childish (ask anyone with a headset and Xbox Live), but can often prove supereffective in throwing your opponent of their game.
If it's speed you want, try using Pit.

I can't wait to play as Pit and Metaknight... How do they stack up to the rest of the bunch?
BlackAndBlueEyes

Pit rocks. He's the new character that anyone can pick up and kick some serious digital butt with.
Meta Knight, on the other hand, I'm kind of disappointed with. He's got speed, but almost no power to his smash attacks.
Crystal Suncrest
03-13-08, 10:16 AM
Metaknight is ok, he has great moves and can rack up damage fast, trying to KO someone with Metaknight is a problem though.
Pit is... Pit. I really don't like using him much. Speed is not what I look for in characters.
I like versatility in moves, easy recovery, and strength to my moves all wrapped up in one package. Metaknight has 2 or 3 moves that can be used for recovery, Jiggly can float and rollout is a great recovery move if used correctly, Pit does have all these qualities, I guess, but confuses the heck out of me nonetheless, Kirby has the ability to float plus his cutter recovery move.
If I wanted speed, I'd take Sonic, by the way. but he is too fast for me.

Pit's recovery is fucking incredible. His flying is the easiest way to win an stock-lives game.
Take it from someone who's a surviver first and a KOer second.
Also, fuck, Pit's final smash is incredible! He calls the fucking angel armies of GOD.

Since that's the way I play, I think I'll like Pit.
BlackAndBlueEyes
03-13-08, 11:09 AM
Pit's final smash is great, but Marth's... Now THAT is incredible.
Just ask Edward Judorne/Crystal Suncrest.
lulz
Crystal Suncrest
03-13-08, 11:16 AM
Yeah, I know all that, but I still think he is a bit awkward for my tastes. Don't ask me why, but I'm just not good with Pit. ROB's recovery is similar to pit's but I don't use him much either. As for the final smashes, I prefer Ness and Lucas's final smash, but I am not playing as them because I don't like thier movesets too much. Don't get me wrong, they are good moves, just not the kind I like to use. I could care less about a character's final smash when choosing a character, though because if you base your choice on that and a smash ball doesn't appear, you are screwed.
I want movesets that work well with ech other. I used to use what I've dubbed 'Jigglypunch' then jump into my foes and rest KO them while they are recovering from that. Those moves worked together in Melee.
Kirby has great versatility in moves, a close range: hammer, a projectile/antiair: Cutter, and a heavy hitting antiground attack: Stone
Metaknight has speedy attacks, and can really rack up damage.
Pit's final smash is great, but Marth's... Now THAT is incredible.
Just ask Edward Judorne/Crystal Suncrest.
lulz
Oh, yeah, I forgot about that. lol.
Oh god, I thought I had avoided one of those and it still hit me. That boy has range.
Ask BlackandBlueEyes about Kirby's Final Smash attack, he should know all about it by now.

The problem with Chef Kirby is that it's got a radius effect. If you're far enough away from it, it won't have any effect in you and it'll leave Kirby open for a nasty counterattack.

Ah, I cannot wait to get this game. Tax refund check!

Getting back on topic, I have some friends I could contact to get involved in this tournament, if you want me to.

Melancor
03-14-08, 02:53 AM

Crystal Suncrest
03-14-08, 01:07 PM
Put mine as Ed_J. Finally decided on that.

I'll join this if it's okay. I know I'm never on Althanas, but I was lurking and came across this.

03-15-08, 11:33 AM
So just played Brawl and I love it... Metaknight, Yoshi, and Squirtle, ftw!
Sword-for-Hire
03-15-08, 03:49 PM
lol cool Mouse.
And Windgate, that's totally fine. Heh, what's your nickname gonna be?
Crystal Suncrest
03-17-08, 12:37 PM
A friend code would also be nice.
Melancor
03-17-08, 11:40 PM
When is it going to be held? or how does this work?
Sword-for-Hire
03-18-08, 11:55 AM
It'll be a few weeks from now. We'll most like randomly pair people at first and begin a sort of sports like competition (think football season records).
If anyone else has any ideas, feel free to post them. Btw, elimination will be out. We're not gonna make something like this just to have someone get one round KOed and not be a part of it anymore. That would be lame.
A Nony Mouse
03-18-08, 01:57 PM
Good idea. I'll be able to play during the next two weekends... but then I don't know when the next time will be.

It's on fools. I just got my Wii w/ Smash Bros.
Who's first?
Crystal Suncrest
04-02-08, 08:29 AM
Friend codes and tourney names from Dirks and nony still needed.
Hey, I'm in if there's room.
Name: dV/us
Wii No.: 7142-5466-3226-1207
Brawl Code: 5155-2687-8981
As long as this finishes before May 9, I'm clear ;)
Crystal Suncrest
04-02-08, 10:34 AM
There is always room.
A Nony Mouse
04-02-08, 11:24 AM
I prolly won't be able to join, just because I have very specific times when I can play. Such as the 11th-13th of April and that's it until May... :( So just count me out.
Crystal Suncrest
04-02-08, 11:30 AM
We could do Bevel's matches first, and have Nony face Bevel on the dates specified, then in may, Nony could face everyone else, while Bevel, who will be finished before may 9th, does his stuff. We can work around schedules like that.

I think we're gonna' be doing it more league style than elimination tournament anyways... If it even happens, that is. Until then we'll just be kicking the living daylights out of each other whenever we can.

*Taps foot as waits "patiently"*
I am entering this profile, Melancor, My tag is TSK, though the name under my FC is D&P.
I really wish that I could join in to try to kick all your asses like I did my college's tournament, but I don't own a Wii myself, and the person who does out of my friends was already talked to about this and he will not allow me to use it. Sorry.
