omg, only 2 more...

Re: DS: FFR Tournament
 

Huh, it may be back to three people again.

Re: DS: FFR Tournament
 

No, I'll never get Zephon either. Since I'm not even close to being able to AAA anything challenging, let alone very challenging (since getting perfectly 9 goods is weird and almost like being able to AAA a song)

BLAH!

Re: DS: FFR Tournament
 

Soo..if peoples could get three more people to sign up..

Re: DS: FFR Tournament
 

I've never seen an amateur tournament with so many people join.

This is cool.

Re: DS: FFR Tournament
 

Sure, why not. Put me in. It might not say I have 300 games yet because it hasn't updated yet. I just played up to 300 for this.

Re: DS: FFR Tournament
 

If we don't get two more people to join before tomorrow, can we just give two people a bye as opposed to going through an entire prelim round? That seems to be far more time efficient to me.

Re: DS: FFR Tournament
 

Yeah. Plus with the amount of people we have now, that'd be pretty darn unfair.

Currently Active Users: 1859 (511 members and 1348 guests)

You'd think with all the members active that I could get at least two more of 'em to join..

Re: DS: FFR Tournament
 

I see how it can work.

With 64 people the brackets look like this

----W32-16-08-04-02-01 \
64-------------------------4-2-1
----L32-32-24-16-10-06-03/


With 62

----W31
62-----
----L31

Having an odd amount on both sides is a problem.

However, I came up with this scenario. In the first round give the top winner and loser a bye for the second round. In the second round give a bye to the top loser for the third round.

----W31-16-08-04-02-01 \
62-------------------------4-2-1
----L31-31-24-16-10-06-03/


*EDIT* 63 player scenario. Give a first round bye to one person. Then give the top scoring loser from the first round a bye in the second. That will straighten things out faster than the 62 scenario acually.

----W32-16-08-04-02-01 \
63-------------------------4-2-1
----L31-32-24-16-10-06-03/

Re: DS: FFR Tournament
 

wow. this is going to be really confusing. =/

Re: DS: FFR Tournament
 

That's why Zeron will explain it well enough for everyone to understand.

Re: DS: FFR Tournament
 

Hehehe, it is funny that I actually understand this 100%, and I am usually the first to be lost and confused.

Re: DS: FFR Tournament
 

You can count me in! First tournament evar like omg. (I'm going to own you newbs rofl.)

Re: DS: FFR Tournament
 

hey I'll play sign me up

Re: DS: FFR Tournament
 

hey ill play
sign me up

Re: DS: FFR Tournament
 

While it is a bit more confusing than in the example shown (if I posted a 64 bracket, that'd be too fricken big, plus I couldn't come up with all the names <_<), that's basically how the 64 brackets will works. Although that is quite a good idea with the byes. I was thinking of something a bit different.

Something to remember: - TWO LOSES AND YOU'RE ELIMINATED

1ST PLACE
2ND PLACE
3RD PLACE
Purple means that this set had no losers come in from the Winner's bracket

----W32-16-08-04-02-01
64
----L32-32-16-16-08-08-04-04-02-01

I'll explain the madness in a bit.

Re: DS: FFR Tournament
 

So the tournament madness itself begins in a day or so?

Re: DS: FFR Tournament
 

Actually it begins in like..less than four hours. Bracket is done. It's pretty big, so I'll just post it as an attachment.

Re: DS: FFR Tournament
 

Holy crap, don't get, I might die from confusion, good thing you're going to explain.

Re: DS: FFR Tournament
 

Bracket posted. Looks fugly on the front page. It's quite a bit different than what I said in the post, but eh, it'll work. The program wouldn't let me do it the way I wanted.
