Jedi Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 (edited) Welcome to JBF, "Joined By Fate", the next smash tournament series ran by yours truly, while RoSF (Revival of Serenes Forest Smash) ends with our final 4, I've been meaning to get this one off the ground for some time. We are looking to start this series on Friday the 18th, with stricter timeframes to do matches, 3/4 days per round, however when Easter comes along that set of days will be more lax and we will get there when we get there. If we max out sign ups before then, we might be able to get some matches done with, if its convenient. The Bracket is here -> http://sforestsmash.challonge.com/JbF2016 This will be on Wii U, I will probably run a side 3DS tourney sometime in the near future however, but I cannot record matches as I lack a 3DS capture card at this time. Ruleset3 Stock 8 MinutesBest 2 of 3, except in Finals, best 3 out of 5Double EliminationNo CustomsThe Stage List is gonna be from my scene (Blackwolf in Spokane), if you have issues with it. I'll be willing to change it around, just ask me for certain stages and present a case for or against one.Starter Stages● Battlefield● Final Destination● Smashville● Dreamland 64● Town & CityCounterpick Stages● Duck Hunt● Lylat Cruise● Omega Stages** Treated as Final Destination in banning phase. If Final Destination is banned, Omega Stages are banned and vice versa.Players must adhere to the standards of stage picks, first the starter stage is decided by umm... Not sure in this case, Could rng roll or something else, but then whomever wins will cross a stage, then the other person will, etc, out of the starter stages only for the first match. Or the 2 can just agree to a stage to start on with no hassle. Whomever wins a match, can strike 2 stages and the person who lost may select out of the remaining legal stages. There is also something called Dave's Stupid rule, where you cannot counter-pick to a stage you've won on in the set Character Changes - While you can change your characters during the set, you must tell your opponent you are switching and who to, as is proper in an official tournament. Unless you 2 agree to be secretive, I don't mind either wayThere is also the Gentleman's agreement, in which both players can agree to play on a nonlegal stage, this also can override Dave's Stupid RuleMii Fighters are allowed, but they must be 1111 set, sorry folks. - Matches will be recorded and sent to me, may as well add my NNID which is Jedisupersonic, in advance to prep for this. I will also be uploading them to my channel for a tourney playlist, I have a capture card so time doesn't matter. - Please give me your NNID when you sign up, even if you did previously, just for consistency sake Sign Ups + NNIDs 1.

If you have IRL reasons for not being able to do the match, please tell me.You may play games ahead of schedule, this will help the due process if you can, but just stick to this as your guideline, also Easter is gonna give a extra day for breakRound 1Begins proper on 3/18 - Ends on 3/21Round 2/Round 1 LosersBegins 3/22 - Ends 3/26Round 3/Round 2 LosersBegins 3/28 - Ends 3/30Winners Finals/Round 3 LosersBegins 4/1 - Ends 4/3Losers QuartersBegins 4/4 - Ends 4/6Losers SemisBegins 4/7 - Ends 4/9Losers FinalsBegins 4/10- Ends 4/12Grand FinalsBegins 4/13 - Ends 4/15 Links to matches done so far Round 1 Dotty vs General Horace Jedi vs LordTaco Aura Wolf vs Yoshi DreadFighter vs AlexTheClumsyGrandmaster Comet vs Euklyd Batter vs Clarinets Tsunami vs XaosLogos Elieson vs Shezzy Round 1 Losers General Horace vs XaosLogos LordTaco vs Clarinets Yoshi vs Shezzy Comet forfeit so DreadFighter autoadvanced Round 2 Dotty vs Tsunami Jedi vs Batter Aura Wolf vs Elieson Alex forfeit due to a family trip, so Euklyd auto advances.

General Horace Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 (edited) /in i'm pretty busy around easter but most people will be anyway so I shouldn't hold things up. We should figure out a way to determine the first stage of a set though other than just figure it out. For someone who doesn't go to tournaments IRL, I don't really know a solution, how is it usually done?

euklyd Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 It's usually done via Rock/Paper/Scissors, but I haven't thought of a way to replicate that online. :/could just make it random like, as the host flip a coin for each set ahead of time, and reveal which player picks at the beginning of each round also /in NNID: euklyd starts the moment I'm done with finals, more or less, so should be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carmine Sword Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 I'd join, but the tournament starts right when I leave for California after finals, and I'll be at Sakura-Con the whole weekend after I get back from California, so I won't be available until the 29th of March. Sorry Jedi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also remember if you don't make this one, you can sign up for Radiant Confrontation which will maybe start around the same time depending on if we have tons of extra people?

euklyd Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 So there are at least six players signed up for this tournament that didn't participate in RoSF (including myself), which kinda throws off seeding. Looking for suggestions on how to handle this - I could either - seed us unranked players all last, and get some bullshit like PKLucas vs Tsunami (the current top seed) round 1, when last I checked they're quite evenly matched, OR - I could fudge it a bit, and place players I know are at least not bottom-seed material closer to the middle of the pack. For the record I am looking for suggestions / reasoned arguments, and trying to get a sense of the general opinion on the matter. This is not a vote.

Jedi Posted March 11, 2016 Author Share Posted March 11, 2016 but is "fair" like, "most accurate seeding" or "in line with actual recorded results"? that's what I'm asking A mixture of both, while the newer people in the mix get a small bit of a shuffle? I'm honestly not sure how to solve this 100% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
