I'd now like to wish a good luck to Indis for her match

, and a very bad luck to t4ils who will be playing me on the first round

 

[bryehn]

[Super_Chicken]

W00t. Let the fun begin!!!

 

[MartinAustin]

Thanks for all the hard work Costello! Top notch!

 

[DarkLink]

Alright! Im ready! .....to lose....

 

[Ace Gunman]

Good work as walways Costello.

 

[Renegade_R]

Wait wait wait...i don't think i'm following the first to three wins thing...does that mean the first player who wins three games will move the next match?

 

[WK416]

Dang. Right before I checked GBATemp, I was hoping the tournament wouldn't get finalized until after finals. Right now it's smack dab in the middle of projects, rushed exams, and finals. Woot!

Edit: Nevertheless... LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

 

[bodom-child]

Great work Costello!

Just for that you should win this tournament

.

Wait wait wait...i don't think i'm following the first to three wins thing...does that mean the first player who wins three games will move the next match?

Ditto, but I believe he ment best 2 out of 3 but he does need to reword it in any event because it is slightly confusing. So is it 2 or 3 wins to advance per match?

 

[Costello]

Great work Costello!Â

Just for that you should win this tournament

.

thanks, but even if I beat t4ils, I still have to beat Hitto to make it to the next round, which is impossible!

Hitto, The Golden-Hearted, can't be beaten by a human being. Only an alien can beat him (Tembargo)

[Opium]

I'm armed with my new DS Lite, how could I possibly lose!?....oh wait.

This should be fun, may the best man or woman win!

w00t

I suck so bad at tetris.

Oh well. Its worth a try eh?

 

[alexp2_ad]

Great work setting it up.

I'm slightly confused by the rule change, I thought the idea was, you play the person you're paired against, then play the winner of the other pair, but:

Now the first to 3 WINS (instead of 2) wins the game! Which means you're going to have to win 3 games

So how do the games go now?

Sounds like a good idea because it'll help skill show through over luck, but how is the structure going to work now?

^It still is.

Player 1 and 2 play until one gets 3 wins. Say player 1 wins.
Player 3 and 4 play until one gets 3 wins. Say player 3 wins.
Player 1 and 3 play until one gets 3 wins. Say player 1 wins.

Player 1 is the winner.

 

[legendofphil]

How does that work if you need 3 wins to progress?

 

[TheRocK]

How does that work if you need 3 wins to progress?

What is so hard to understand about this. The person that has 3 wins progresses.

 

[jumpman17]

Plyaers 1, 2, 3, 4 enter match

Players 1 and 2 go first so Players 3 and 4 instantly die and are refs.

Player 1 wins, Player 2 wins, Player 1 wins, Player 1 wins.

Player 1 now has 3 wins so he advances.

The next round Players 3 and 4 play so Players 1 and 2 instantly die and are refs.

Player 4 wins, Player 3 wins, Player 4 wins, Player 3 wins, Player 4 wins.

Player 4 now has 3 wins so he advances.

The next round Players 1 and 4 play so Players 2 and 3 instantly die and are refs.

Player 1 wins, Player 1 wins, Player 4 wins, Player 1 wins.

Player 1 has 3 wins so he is the winner.

Wait for the next round to start.
