metalsnowman3 Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 what date is the draft tournament going to be played? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jave Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Super Smash Bros. 3DS Draft Tournament In this tournament, 16 participants will choose 3 playable characters each through a drafting process. These characters cannot be repeated and must be used through the whole tournament. ~Important Dates~ - Tournament begins Thursday, November 6, 2014. If participants are comfortable, they can play their matches before the tournament officially begins. - Round 1 matches must be done by Friday, November 7, 2014, 11:59 PM EST. - Round 2 & 3 matches must be done by Saturday 8, 2014, 11:59 PM EST. - All matches must be done by Sunday 9, 2014, 11:59 PM EST. ~Rules~ - To join this tournament, a Challonge account is REQUIRED. There will be no private requests to join. To join this tournament go here and sign up. - Items will be completely turned off. - Winner is best 2 out of 3 matches. Finals are best 3 out of 5 matches. - 3 stock, 8 minutes. - Custom moves are allowed, equipment is not. - You can only use the three characters you draft for the whole tournament. - You can't use the same character twice in one round of matches, except for the finals, where two different characters are allowed to repeat (although you have to use your three characters for the first three matches). ~Drafting~ - Once all 16 participants have signed up, the drafting process will begin. The participants will be organized randomly (join order doesn't matter here) and will pick their characters one at a time. - Drafting will take place in the Comments section in the Challonge page. - Once the drafting order is decided, the 16 participants will choose one character each, then the second character will be picked in reverse order. That is, the participant who picked his first character last will pick his second character first, the one that picked his first character second-to-last will pick his second character second, and so forth until everyone has two characters. - Finally, the third character will be chosen in the same participant order of the second character, thus drafting a total of 48 characters. - Once a character is drafted by a participant, no other participant can draft said character. - Mii Fighters are banned and will remain undrafted. ~Allowed stages~ - Battlefield - Final Destination - Yoshi's Island - Prism Tower - Arena Ferox - Tortimer Island - Tomodachi Life - All Omega versions of stages. Remember, to join, go to the Challonge page of the tournament and sign up. No other forms of joining will be accepted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Horace Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 (edited) does drafting just begin when all the slots are filled? Where will it be done? Due to timezones etc it might be hard to coordinate getting everyone in skype or irc or something. I really like the rule where you have to use all your characters btw.

Yeah, drafting should start ASAP so people can get to practice with characters they're not familiar with. As it says on the rules, we'll do it in the Challonge comments page. If someone is too busy to do the Drafting process, they can PM me (or someone else who has more time to do so) a list of all 48 characters in preference order, so I can choose for them when drafting.

Florete Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 ~Allowed stages~ - Battlefield - Final Destination - Yoshi's Island - Prism Tower - Arena Ferox - Tortimer Island - Tomodachi Life - All Omega versions of stages. I like this stage list. Also, this idea itself could have turned into a disaster, but it looks like you thought it through really well, so it should turn out fine. Kudos. Hopefully I can get at least two of my mains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knife Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 (edited) Can't we go back to the old days when sign-ups didn't fill up in a 6 hour window and deadlines were more reasonable? Weekends don't work for everybody... weekly rounds were cooler. Multiple tourneys at a time were also cool.

Raven Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 (edited) Indeed. There's far more than 16 people interested in playing a tournament with other SFers. But for the sake of this tournament, I can see that no more than 16 players will work due to the player:character ratio. As for multiple tourneys running parallel, I did suggest it but it seems as though nobody is really pushing for it. Edit: Just looked at the tournament bracket, it seems there's still 4 free spaces.

Raven Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 (edited) I've got clearance to host a "Newcomer tournament."This is like the "Original 12" tournament, except that, as you may guess by the name, you can use only the 12 newcomer fighters to Smash (Dark Pit and Lucina not included).Tournament is scheduled to play between Saturday 29th November to Monday December 1st, but of course you can start playing your matches on Friday if both you and your opponent are comfortable with doing so.Signups will open up a week before, on the 22nd November. 16 spaces.However I'm still wondering whether or not I should allow people to use Dark Pit and Lucina. You can vote here (Straw Poll).Edit:[spoiler=Rules] SF SSB4 3DS tournament: Smash NewcomersRules- Competitors: 16- All items off.- BO3. Finals BO5.- Double elimination.- 3 stock, 8 minutes.- Custom moves allowed. Custom equipment not allowed.12/14* characters allowed:- Bowser Jr.- Dark Pit*- Duck Hunt Duo- Greninja- Little Mac- Lucina*- Mega Man- Pac-Man- Palutena- Robin- Rosalina & Luma- Shulk- Villager- Wii Fit Trainer* = May or may not be allowed, due to being clones.Stages allowed:- Battlefield- Final Destination- Yoshi's Island- Prism Tower- Arena Ferox- Tortimer Island- Tomodachi Life- All Omega versions Edited October 28, 2014 by Raven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elieson Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Lucina is definitely not Marth, Dark Pit has been identified to have differences compared to Pit. Allow them both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Draft tourney needs one more person! Damn it I wanna draft :P Also Raven I think Lucy and Pittoo should be allowed. I voted too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comet Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 (edited) i'd join the draft tourny but i'm going to a melee tourny on that weekend... ALSO WHOEVER SR KILL IS PM ME Edited October 28, 2014 by Cornet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintessence Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 (edited) Imo allow them both. Also, will the tourney be for the 3ds or the wii U? Edit: in any case, i'll gladly join. Edited October 28, 2014 by Quintessence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 (edited) 3DS. I'll add it to the title. Besides, only NA is receiving the Wii U version before December, so it's not really possible to have a Wii U-based SSB4 tourney until it's released worldwide on the 6th December. Unless you want an all-American cast of players. Signups aren't open until a week before the tourney starts, but I'll post a link to the Challonge page here once it is available.

Jave Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 All 16 spots for the Draft Tournament have been decided, so we can commence the Drafting! Here's the order! The first character for each participant will be drafted in this order, then the second character in reverse order (starting with CBFlood, then General Horace, and finally LeaderR_Elliot). The third character will also be drafted in reverse order (starting with CBFlood and ending with LeaderR_Elliot) Go to the comments section in the Challonge page to start drafting.
