It can be used for either "old-bdc style" or same day tournaments. A bracket is a bracket. lol People play, people are eliminated. XD

Well, if that's the official bracket... damn, first round B&E? :(

Hopefully Lucario's fighting type can work on Jigglypuff's normal type for an advantage-- unless you don't use her <_<

I would strongly recommend a round robin bracket to determine seeding.

Well that's how seeds work, usually. The best start out playing the worst. That way, you get the biggest showdown (often best vs second best) in the finals.

In a seed of 8, with ranks 1 being best and 8 being worst, quarterfinals go as such:

1v8 \ _
3v6 / _ \ __
4v5 \ _ /
2v7 /

It's a bit hard to determine who's more skilled than the other isn't it? Lag plays a huge portion in the mix and doesn't work up in the end.

EDIT: wrong topic >_<


Um...
You could determine the seeds based on preliminaries or a round-robin.

Now that we've got members signed up and a bracket, we can start deciding what date and time to have it.

I'm planning on doing it at a set time, meaning not BDC Pokemon Tournament-style which was You have X number of days to fight your opponent. At the set time, each participant will have to make it to the chat to face their opponent. If a significant amount of participants miss it, then I'll try to set another time, but you are encouraged to make it on the first set time.

The first time I've worked out is 4:00 PM EST, which will make it 8:00 pm for our English members and 1:00 PM for our west coast members. This isn't official yet as I want input from the participants.

Date is still being decided.

who told you I was the best one here? haha.

Nitro and SAN are both better than me, jake has a slight edge on me when he uses his main, and spas... uh... spas is spas man. there isn't enough johns in the world to save you from him.

anyways, start throwing out dates jake. I go to my father's every other weekend so if you say a date when I'm not here, then I can't play.

Yeah. Spas is good. I played him yesterday. I wish there wasn't any lag so we could play with no hangups cause it was a good match. I have it recorded but I'll upload it later.

Playing each other would probably work better because you can play lag-free for that round.

Anyways, as far as I can tell, I'll still have brawl for a while. I'm borrowing it from a friend. If he takes it back, I'll just say so and drop.

I've never played you, but, if you're a good player, then you shouldn't be playing against the best. If you're bad, generally you're supposed to be up against the best if there is any seeding (Pools).

This is to prevent the best people from knocking eachother out early, so a person who would get third places poorly cause he fought the guy who got first early on.

However, normally there is double elimination, but there's no time for that here.

I'm not sure how soon I can get my Wii online. My dad will be reluctant to help out since he's just like a bit anal about the router and security and stuff. And I've got exams coming up, which doesn't help my "please help me and bro get Wii online, dad" case.

The bracket was generated in random, not seeding. I don't know who is the best and who is isn't. I need a round robin to determine that.
