Musicman’s Anime Tournament

Smasher Wins!

Thank you to all of you who took part in the tournament!
I enjoyed putting it on, and I hope you enjoyed playing in it!
_________________________________________________________
Choose your character, go to your corners, and come out swinging!

This tourney is small, with only 10 competitors, and is in two parts: round robin preliminaries and single-elimination finals. Each round will take place on a different map, ranging from Classic to dog-eat-dog Circus Maximus. Tournament schedules will be sent via PM before matches begin. Keep up to date with the forum and your Inbox on tournament progress. Also, I am looking for 2-4 reserves if the need arises. Lastly, send any questions/comments you have about the tournament via PM to ensure they get a response.

NOTE: Since there are no more reserves to replace players, individuals who do not join their matches in the given time will forfeit the match. This will result in a loss for yourself, and a win for your opponent.

Okay guys, just one player away.
Tenative start date is Friday, January 4th.

[Daring Overlord5]

yo
i will be a reserve
Edit: character will be Monkey D. Luffy

[Kinnison]

I'll take the last active spot (if I read the post right, and Daring Overlord5 doesn't want it)...

I'm not concerned about the points, but the schedule. but I decided I can't pass up something this cool.

Then, of course, I had to decide WHO to be. I was going to be obscure at first, then decided against being too far off the beaten path. No fun if people don't know who they're fighting, right?

I'll be Zelgadis Greywords.

[Hanul]

If there's still a spot, I'm in.
If there's no spots left, I'll be reserve.
Negi Springfield

[musicman_379]

Kinnison, you're in the final spot.

Daring Overlord5 and Hanul, you are the reserves.

Okay everyone, we're ready to go. You'll recieve a PM of your preliminary schedule when tourny privelages are granted. Round 1 matchups will follow.

Good Luck to all!

[musicman_379]

Tournament Schedules have been sent.
PMs containing the game number and password of your matches will be sent at the beginning of each round.

On Jan. 4, get ready to...

KICK BUTT AND TAKE NAMES!

[Kinnison]

*blinks at tournament schedule*

Ah, this makes a lot more sense than when I first PMed you. Round robin, 9 rounds, 1 game against each other player. I thought EACH ROUND would include one game against EACH other player... ie 81 games, not 9. Hence my early concern about the tournament's length.

[musicman_379]

PMs are sent.

Round 1 is on!
