RBY2K10 Tournament #1: OU ResultsDue to this tournament taking much longer than originally intended and some problems with the finalists, this tournament ended in a tie. Results1st: Nerd / GGFan 3rd: t3h Icy 4th: SubSmoke 5th: WaterWizard / Crystal 7th: Zilch Cut-off: Posthuman / James / Jeymz / Gotei / Gunbladelad / Rose BracketAlright, we can begin the bracket now! All sets are best 2 out of 3, except for Winner's Finals, Loser's Finals and Grand Finals which are all best 3 out of 5. Don't forget that in between matches of the same set, each player can change teams. Also, during anytime of a match, if both players agree to a tie, the match becomes a redo. For example, if Player A is winning the set 1-0 against Player B, and in the 2nd match, they agree to a tie, the score is still 1-0, but the 2nd match is redone. Best of luck to all. PoolsPools have no effect on how you do in the tournament, but Pools determines where you're put in the bracket. 1st Seeds will face 4th Seeds and 2nd Seeds will face 3rd Seeds. Both 1st Seeds are also on the opposite side of the bracket. I tried to divide the pools evenly so that neither is a death pool, so hopefully this turns out nicely. If there is a two or three way tie in a pool for any rank, those seeds will be randomized. Remember that all Pools matches are single matches, so be at your best. =) Just post here or contact me otherwise about the results. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hopefully this will kick things off well. This will be a standard OU Tournament with standard rules. Format:-Pools to determine tournament seeding -Double Elimination All players make it out of Pools, so if you do poorly, you'll just have a tougher bracket. Sets:-Pool sets are single matches (best of 1) -Bracket sets except finals are best 2 of 3 -Winner's Finals, Loser's Finals and Grand Finals are all best 3 of 5 -Each player is in the tournament until that player has lost two sets in the brackets (in other words, double elimination) -Each player can switch teams between matches of the same set Rules:-Sleep Clause -Freeze Clause -Self-KO Clause -Apply PP UPs -Battle Timeout -Mewtwo and Mew are not allowed -Duplicates of the same Pokemon are not allowed -Double Team and Minimize are not allowed (Evasion Clause) -Horn Drill, Fissure and Guillotine are not allowed -Wrap, Bind, Fire Spin and Clamp are not allowed If a player uses a move that is banned from the tournament, they lose the match and the set. At anytime during a match, if a player offers the match to end in a tie and both players agree, they redo the match. So for example, should both players enter a stall war and both declare a tie (as they may be worried about losing that match), they redo the match (not the set though). Players:I'm hoping to get at least 8 players for this, but if that's not the case, players that do the best in their pools will receive a bye in the bracket. 1. t3h Icy 2. Nerd 3. GGFan 4. WaterWizard 5. SubSmokeX Gunbladelad6. James Jeymz Rose7. Crystal PostHuman 8. Zilch Gotei

Beat WaterWizard in a very close game, 2-0.
Now we just need Gunbladelad around and we can finish Pool 2. =)

Replaced Gunbladelad with SubSmokeX.
He beat Water_Wizard and was beaten by Nerd and myself.
So results for second pool are:
1. t3h Icy 2. Nerd 3. SubSmokeX 4. WaterWizard
Just waiting on the other pool now and then we can get the bracket going. >:3 Or I'll just replace some more people.
EDIT: Also incase it isn't clear, your opponent in the bracket may or may not be the player in the other Pool. It'll be random who you face, of the two people with the corresponding seed.
Example: I'm either facing WaterWizard or whoever gets 4th in the other pool.
Haven't you guys ever done a playoff-style tournament before? >_>

Anyone know any replacements?

Alright that helps.
I'll have the two replacements tonight, hopefully.

Rose should be in the colosseum server and posthuman was here yesterday.

Post by t3h Icy on Mar 8, 2010 11:55:32 GMT -8
Rose is somewhat unreliable though.
PostHuman e-mailed me yesterday saying he wanted to drop out.
EDIT: Added Crystal and Jeymz. Hopefully we can get this going now.

Alright, we've got this rolling now. Jeymz beat Crystal.
Once we get the last few matches done, we can finally start the actual bracket.

*Sigh*
Should I just make the bracket to end this. Next tournament, I'll only use active players so we don't get left waiting.
Seeding will be:
1. t3h Icy, GGFan 2. Nerd, Gotei 3. SubSmokeX, Jeymz 4. WaterWizard, Crystal
Would that seem fair? I'll make the bracket later tonight if you guys agree with this.

Oh god, I hope I don't end up breaking Crystal's heart.
1st seeds play 4th seeds and 2nd seeds play 3rd seeds!
Nobody knows their opponent yet until I generate the bracket.
Also Jeymz, was your match an actual Pool match or was it just a random friendly? If you legitimately in Pool beat Gotei, I'll switch your seedings.
After I find that out, I'll put up the bracket, and we can start.

Bracket up! This is a double elimination tournament, so you'll have to lose two sets before you're completely eliminated.
Good luck.

I beat waterwizard 2 games to 0 to get my revenge for TOS8.
I won the first game 1-0. The most significant part of the game was obviously my lucky freeze on his Chansey, which I scored immediately.
The second game was much more tense; it felt like one of those annoying chess matches that go on 30 minutes too long and when it's over you felt like you just had an annoying chess match that went on 30 minutes too long. I won this game 2-0 and the luck was on my side for the most part. Most notably, my critical hit Earthquake on his Chansey followed by said Chansey getting paralyzed the next turn was what sealed the win for me.
This is my first tournament since a RSE tournament in Pokefans, which means I haven't been in a tournament in 3 months or so. Glad to say my return has been a successful one thus far, and I'm glad I decided to play in this.
ggs waterwizard. The LB is in for hell, or something like that.

Great stuff guys. GGs.

I know that the registry is down, which is incredibly annoying, but let's try to get the matches done.

I beat Crystal 2-0 in the set with Round 1 coming right to the end. I Lapras clutched it though like I did to WaterWizard in TOS8. ;D
That was a really great set!

Leaning on replacing Gotei and Jeymz; this is getting ridiculous. At least I've gained some insight for future tournament.
Zilch? Redst0rm? Would you be interested?

Gotei replaced with Zilch and Nerd beat Zilch. Thanks a lot bud for filling the gap. Nerd vs myself coming up later tonight.
Jeymz, get your set done or you'll be replaced too.
