The Next GBAtemp.net Tournament

Will be...

Tetris DS!​

I'm pleased to announce the next official GBAtemp Tournament will be Tetris DS.
Futher details will be announced sooner to the tournament date, which has not yet been decided.

Stay tuned!
OH! And please tell all your friends!

I'm gonna sign my gf up ^^ Me? I don't like Tetris, never have

 

[Mehdi]

w00t!

 

[EarthBound]

I hope it doesnt take as long as Mario Kart did.

 

[tshu]

I'll sign up, but I suck at Tetris

 

[Zaraf]

Woot! This is JUST what I've been waiting for! Sign me up!

EDIT: I really hope that I'll have a wifi connection in the new town I'll be staying for the next 4 months for work...cause otherwise I won't be able to participate. Let's hope I do

heheh


Btw, is it only going to be normal mode for the tournament? Cause personally, I feel that PUSH mode is better suited for "fighting" style play. Although, we'll probably end up going with the 4 player mode, and 2 of the players are judges who just watch the other 2...

I'm sure the staff have learned alot from Mario Kart

I need a WiFi USB ASAP!

I'll have to pick up a copy sometime then.

Me and my GF are in.

This sounds great, but please, oh please oh please, make it a one day tournament as Qrayzie suggested. You could have more than one that way.

Also, you don't necessarily have to have huge prizes. You could negotiate, for example, $20 gift certificates for popular shops like Kick Trading instead of huge prizes such as M3's. If someone won multiple tournaments, they'd get multiple certificates which would add up to a big prize.

Anyway, please give some consideration to my ideas.

 

[Costello]

everything that's related to the tournament is being discussed in the staff forum,
so yeah, any idea is welcome

A one day tournament would be EXTREMELY hectec and hard to do. Especially with the ammount of people that would be in it. Remember Mario Kart was 200+ peoples? I'm just glad that I can be in the running this time.

k just gimme time to downlo... err... go out to the store and buy it!

Hm, Tetris tournament, eh? Well, Tetris is a really fun game. It's the kind of game anyone can enjoy, even if they're not a "skilled" gamer. The simplicity of Tetris is what makes it so enjoyable. No fancy blaster guns, or hit points, just blocks in a box. It takes me back to my baby days (not that I remember being a baby, but still!)

It doesn't have to be 200 people. It could be a number of separate tournaments organized by region, so that everyone is awake at the same time. In fact, this is probably the best way to conduct such a thing.

Having a one day tournament also merits use of IRC for organization and communication, since everything would be going on fast.

I think it could totally work.

Whoo! Grog for all!

Not that you will all get drunk and be handicapped during the tournament of course.

Can't wait!

 

[MartinAustin]

I'm in for sure!

 

[Shinobi-wan]

Yay, a tournament I'll actually enter.
