Super Street Fighter IV Tournament (Round 5)
 

It's almost time to prepare yourself for the time. You read that right. The tournament won't be starting for a little while but we better prep ourselves. Right now we're looking at about a July 4th start date. Over two months from launch. That should be plenty of time to figure out your characters, figure out the playing style of others, or even if you're waiting to buy it used, it should be plenty of time.

A few things I want to mention:

- Initial seeding will be based off of last year's results. As we scrimmage and get more people, I'll adjust them accordingly.

- We kind of already know who will be in the final 4 but it doesn't mean you not-so-skilled players can't have a fun time with this. It can get competitive/fun if you give it a chance. Battling for the higher seeds is important. It depends on how many players we'll have total, but the top seeds will probably get a few byes in the early rounds.



And once it drops I'll get more into details. But this is just getting the ball rolling. I'll send out mass PMs to see who is interested and what not.

If you would like to be in this, post your gamertag and say you would like to be in this.



SEEDINGS (Tentative):


1. Kalyx - Kalyx triaD 360
2. RoXer - RoXer1
3. Funky Fly - Busted Funk

10. Ant - TonyRomoASL

Kalyx, you were talking to someone somewhere about Street Fighter. It might have been in the 100,000 replies thread.

Do you remember who it was and if they have any interest in this?

Don't remember. Please don't make me skim that thread.

It could have been the following:

- LuigiD
- Ermaximus
- The Jayman
- The Hazeman
- SmellyMeatballMan


Are any of these ringing any bells?

Ok.

Yeah, I'm up for another tournament. I think I've come along way since the last one.

I'm down. Buying a new 360 for some SSF4 action specifically.

July will give me some time to get used to playing with a fight stick too.

im in....just like my nuts in yr. mouth.

Sure.

Maybe Ermax...

If they don't post here... ever, chances are slim they're equipped for a tourny.

Consider Khuntry in, can't shaft him twice.

Been thinking about it and I won't do single elimination. It has to be double to be "fun".

Getting seeded against Kalyx in the first round because you are garbage wouldn't be fun.

how to we determine seeding? Preliminary tourney?

FUCKING READ

no. Just tell me.

It's an elaborate system that has involved tea leaves and the position of the Earth relative to the sun when you announced you were in.

I sure am.

I'm down

:y:

So Bad Company, Super V, .44 Mag's not throwing down in this? I would sincerely like to share the replay of my beating their asses to the masses.

Been playing the last couple of days to try to get into fighting shape. Having some surprising success with Gouken, he may just become my number one.

Bad Company doesn't do consoles, mate.

So what the fuck was he basing all that shit on arcade stick for fighters from? He was pulling shit out of his ass? Repeating phrases like a fucking child? Disappointing, I was looking forward. :foc:

Tourny may be more interesting and less predictable, mate.

Yeah, if I was in, I'd probably no show again anyway. It is for the best, really.

The first one finished

Yeah I think we'll get a decent turn out this time. The last one dragged on longer than it should have so we should be more on point this time.

MAYBE IF WE HAD A THREAD WHERE WE COULD PROMOTE MEET UPS

Like this one. Or send PMs.

Late registration up in here

Been thinking about making this best of 11 with a 4 character max limit since there are a bunch more characters now. So you you can only pick the same character 3 times.

But best of 9 is probly good enough. I dunno.

No, keep it the same.

No it won't be best of 7. Best of 9, can only pick the same character 3 times.

Meh.

So, we can only use the same character three times per round? And each round is a best of 9 matches? Why 9? Seems like an odd number.

Last year was best of 7, same character twice. So you would have to master at least 4 character, but only have 2 matches with them.

This game has more characters so I wanted more chances to use them and create different matchups. Best of 7 does sound better, but I want an even number of rounds for the character limit.

You guys can vote though if you want.

I'm taking Super V out of this since he no longer posts.
