Rules: FFA 2 contestants per round, 1 judge(me)=3 players. The player with the most score, wins the round. If you kill the judge, you lose. If you leave the room, you lose. If you don't come to your match, you lose. I always make the room, where the battle is! Course: Random Items: Standard Time Limit: 3 min No handicap. You can only use ONE WEAPON in the tournament! You don't have to tell what weapon you use in the tournament. POWERS CAN BE SWITCHED, NOT THE WEAPON!
More information will come when at least 7 people has signed in by PM:ing me their Friend Code. The battle order is going to be random. Be sure to add my FC to join in the Championships! Ask if you have any questions.
I would like to join! I will pm you my friend code once I find it.

Instead of using that crappy looking board, I recommend challonge.com (http://challonge.com) from personal experience. Also, you can put me on for now, but if the date is revealed and it is a while I am gone on vacation I will have to drop out.
I'd rather use the crappy board. Added. 5 left!

Suit yourself. Just trying to make it easier to read.
I went to check it out, but I can update here better. Like, if communication error occurred.
I shall win!
4 left!
You could put a link on the Uprising thread? If not enough people come.
Why do you need 7 people if you have 8 spots?
Guess who is the 8th? ;)
I ain't missing the fun!

When are you gone?
Ah. Generally the host isn't part of the competition. Plus you would need another judge.
Quote from: Zunawe on July 05, 2012, 04:05:22 PMAh. Generally the host isn't part of the competition. Plus you would need another judge.
Got the guest host/judge covered.
Wayyyyyyyyyy ahead of you, pal.

Some time in August.
My vacation ends on August 9th, so I try to host the tournament before that.

Hey that's my birthday! But I don't know if I'd be available after that time...
More reasons why ''before''.
Oh, I thought it said "after." my bad.
Quote from: FSM-Reapr on July 06, 2012, 09:12:49 AMMy vacation ends on August 9th, so I try to host the tournament before that.
OK. I believe I leave the 19th or 20th or around there.
I'll play. No promises on skill though. ::)
3 left. Be sure to add my fc! I've added everybody's.
Question, the judge is there to make sure no one cheats.
How do you know if someone is cheating?
I think the judge is the person who verifies the score, not prevent cheating. If two people battle, and somebody decides to be annoying and claim they won when they didn't, there's no way to know who actually won. Therefore, judge.
I've seen hackers in online. EX: They take an earthmaul and walk beyond the borders and snipe from there. Or the classic cheat: Invicibility that doesn't end. But Zunawe is also right.
EDIT: 2 left!
Hey Jub, would you like to join?
Okay.
1 SPOT LEFT!!! HURRY UP!!!

I'm pretty sure it's just connection trouble. I think the 3DS can't be hacked.
All the hackers I've seen are Japanese. I KNOW they are hackers.

You're an idiot. The 3DS hasn't been hacked yet. Stop implying that it has.
Okay. Then they were. I've just seen cases like that. :-[
Well it happens and I doubt we would see it here on NSM. We're a small friendly community so I don't think we'll see any of it.
Also, using something like challonge would be great as I barely understand your bracket. If anything at least make a graphic out of it in mspaint or GIMP. But it looks like a double elimination bracket, that's right there on challonge.
For example, a simple one I threw together with numbers for names. Link (http://challonge.com/tournament/bracket_generator?ref=OYFQFFUABH)
But it does sound fun none-the-less, I can't guarantee that I'll do well because some of the weapons I have are terrible.
I'll make the board here, 'cause I'm old-fashioned...Anyway, so you're in?

I agree with that. It is hard to read. And it's not like it takes that long to make one, only like 5 minutes.

There you go! The battle order! I still need few days to make free-time and the initial arrangements. I'll post here, when I'm ready.
I didn't know there was anybody named Wryndryn on this site. ::)
What? ???
Your bracket says Wryndryn, his name is Wrydryn.
Did you read it carefully? ::)
http://images.challonge.com/nsmkiu.png
This is going to be interesting to watch. Too bad I don't have a 3DS, much less Kid Icarus Uprising, so I can't join, unfortunately.
You should get both. :)
Now that we have enough players, I suggest we get this rolling quickly. Last time something was organized like this, it all fell apart due to scheduling, so set a cut-off date for sign-ups and start mapping out dates for the matches and send out PMs for the first round a few days in advance.
I'm leaving for a week tomorrow at 10 am my time, so would I be disqualified for missing my match? ???
Yes.
*TROLLFACE*
READ CAREFULLY:
The First Round of the Championships will begin Tuesday 17th 7:00AM PST:

After the 1st round, EVERYBODY'S WEAPONS will be revealed(but not the weapon's stats)! So you can surprise the opponent only in the 1st round. Like I said before: POWERS CAN BE SWITCHED, NOT THE WEAPON!
The player with the most score, wins the round. If the game ends in a tie, the winner is solved by 1-minute round immediately after the game. And if that game ends in a tie, I will flip a coin. If you kill the judge, you lose. If you leave the room, you lose. If you don't come to your match, you lose. I always make the room, where the battle is! If a communication occures BY ME the schedule will be moved,(EX: match begins 9:00am, *communication error*, the same match will be hosted again 9:15) I can't inform immediately that I have a communication error, so I hope that someone will inform others about the schedule changes. Also, change your in-game names so I can identify you.
If you have any questions, just ask.
Be sure to add my FC to join in the Championships! Jub, Wrydryn, and Spit haven't yet added me.
I lose my match. :( I'm gonna be gone...
aww... seriously.... :(
I think I can make that, let me check.
At 8? But das so eeerly (not really, I just end up sleeping in a lot).
Quote from: Zunawe on July 14, 2012, 10:14:53 AMAt 8? But das so eeerly (not really, I just end up sleeping in a lot).
For me, it's also a hard time. But 3am for you guys(and gals) is a bit too early. Try to understand.
Lol, I figgered. Just trolling.
So my first match is 10:45 EST. I'm gunna have to make sure I wake up on time. :P
So remind me why we're not having these be late in the evening? It seems like 6-9pm PST is a pretty solid time-block.
I think it's cause FSM's time zone makes that time like really early in the morning.
It's wayy too early for me.
Zunanwe, have I added you yet for our match? I know I have FSM.
You don't need to add any other people, 'cause I make the room.
Oh, right. Also, I am in another tournament hosted elsewhere, so if my match is the same time as this (I don't think it will be but) than I'll have to drop out of this tournament. Sorry, that one is just priority. But, I think I can play, so don't worry about it
Jub & Spit! You need to add my FC!
Why do I feel like the poll is going to be an eight-way tie?
Reapr I'm looking again for how to find the FC....
And no Zunawe I suck. I voted for you :D
In the orange smiley tab on the main menu. You go to your own card, and it will tell you your friend code. . . Unless you meant something else.
"So. FSM beat me in something like 5 to 3 games."
-Zunawe
That's. . . great? Relevance?
Pro tip: When using Trade-off, use Lightweight with it.
So uh yeah, I can't make this.
Sorry, but the Mario Kart tournament I am in is at this time.
Too bad...
Sad face.
I wanted to battle him.
Me too.
This means that the loser of B and D get a free-bee and go straight to the loser of E and F.
Yes. BUT, you still have to show up to your match.
Or we can be reasonable and move his match to the next day or a better time. If someone gets knocked out because of a situation like this, it just doesn't seem fair.
It's ironic that in the poll, me and Zunawe are in the lead, but in Round 1 we both get a free-bee ticket to next round.
Wrydryn, if this tournament succeeds, I'll make the Fall Championships!
It's just frivolous is all. Due to conflicts in time there can't be a match.
I agree with Wry. Having time conflicts irl shouldn't disqualify somebody. If there were no reasons for them to be gone maybe a penalty could be put in place.
First of all, it's a forfit. And I don't have time to re-arrange this tournament. Spyro? If I'll move the schedule with 1 hour forward, can you come?
A forfeit is somebody giving up and not playing the tennis match. It's not being hit by a bus on the way to the court.
In Spyro's case, it's a forfeit.
Umm. . . why? He's basically saying that he has something else he had already planned at the time you set. He's not refusing to play, he's choosing to honor a prior commitment.
He said that he'd come, but something came up in the last stretch. It doesn't matter that much.
Welp, my wireless router decided to go kapoot. I have to forfeit all my matches unless I can get it working again.
Tell me immediately when it's working again.

Yah, time zones can do that to you, I just woke up a little bit ago.
Also I assume the new times are also in PST?
Yes. Remember to put your alarm clocks ready.
the_last_sheikah, add me at 1977-0484-5255!
Also, looking for my game cartridge. o.o
I'm out. Sorry.
:(
I am not a techy person and this thing doesn't like me :( I even had my nerd cousin come look at it.
Have fun everybody.
Not cool. :(
6 hours remaining!
15 MINUTES!
Follow here:
http://challonge.com/nsmkiu
Winner of A:
Zunawe -points
Spyro didn't show up, so he's in Losers 1 match.
Winner of B:
Wrydryn -points
Spitllama didn't show up, so he's in Losers 1 match.
Winner of C:
FSM-Reapr -points
Kman96 didn't show up, so he's in Losers 2 match.
Winner of D:
the_last_sheikah -points
Jub3r7 didn't show up, so (s)he's in Losers 2 match.
bull shit, he was there
And if his name is Boss, then he just won against me.
Um, no he wasn't... ???
But I saw that he was watching Pokedex 3d 3 min before I made the room.
I added his friend code, and he was online.
Winner of L1:
Spyro -points
Both of them didn't show up, so the winner was solved by a coin toss.
Broski, considering that very few people actually showed up for their matches, we may have to call this off. It's not really a tournament if only 3 people show up.
There are actually 4 people now. Now the action starts.
Winner of L2:
Jub3r7 -points
Again, coin toss.
Battling Situation:
http://challonge.com/nsmkiu
Ok, no one scored on the 1st round. But now it changes.
Weapons:
Zunawe: Laser Staff
Wrydryn: Aquarius Blade
Me: Samurai Blade(Kraken Arm is judge weapon)
the_last_sheikah: Magnus Club
Winner of E:
Wrydryn -points
Zunawe didn't show up, so he's in L4.
Side note: Wherd'd you go, Zunawe?
This tournament is a total FIASKO...
Winner of F:
Me 1278 points
Sheikah 905 points
Winner of L3:
Sheikah -points
Spyro didn't come.
then who the hell was I fighting?
CPU
Winner of L4:
Zunawe -points
Coin toss...
Winner of L5:
Sheikah -points
Zunawe didn't come.
Winner of G:
Wrydryn 1204 points
Me 920 points
Winner of L6:
Me -points
Sheikah didn't come. Odd...
That match was just now? I didn't understand that time table at all. Well, have fun crowning a tournament winner for winning 2 matches against the same person. No offense Wry.
Final:
Me: 960
Wry: 867
This tournament sucked, BIG TIME! Check the board:
http://challonge.com/nsmkiu
SUCKED!
BTW, I'm online now if someone wants to battle.
The scheduling wasn't very good. It should have been built around when people could play, and should have had no judges. The judge is just a random 3rd person to schedule around, and the people here are honest enough not to be annoying and cheat.
I showed up for the first one, and then had to go walk my dog when the second one occurred, and then I just decided not to do it, because it wouldn't really be worth it.
I don't know.
Oh well. Lesson learned for other tourneys.
I didn't even know I was still in this. I already said I had the Mario Kart tournament
He changed the date.
What did we learn about this:
NEVER let me host a tournament. :P
