Nearly forgot to do the Tournament Update tonight... O_o

As we head into Day 4 of Round 6, it would appear that some of the people left have given up hope on making it to Round 7, and I wouldn't argue with them, some of the scores gotten lately by each division have been quite outrageous compared to scores that were received on average in Round 4 and Round 5, and that was the tipping point for AAAs, yet, they still seem to be coming in hard, and I wouldn't be surprised if a couple of people were able to pull a Dossar. I'll leave some quotes in below this paragraph to let the people themselves explain what they have in mind. Well, enough depression, here's the tournament update!

Also, here's the Mobile Tournament Update
For people on phones, or want to link it!

.Findarian (D5) Slips into deep elimination waters with 36-2-5-8!

This may be the point of end in the tournament for Team Pony, but for this part in the tournament, how many problems we've had in it, I think it's just who was the better sandbagger imo, and to get up there with them without doing such things, is a great feat indeed. You have all improved regardless.

Ok, only megamon didn't get better, everyone else did. xD

[MinaciousGrace]

i got better do i count

[FissionMailed1]

Yes. Everybody counts.

[Findarian]

We should totally do some kind of tourney just for our team. I think it would be kinda cool =)

+1 Excellent idea. Of course wide differences in skill levels will need to be taken into consideration and/or perhaps limit the upper difficulty of charts. I'd never be able to do well on an old system 10, 11, or 12 for example, and my chances on doing well on an old system 9 are quite small. (Yeah new system is too confusing/not used to it yet)

My PA is good, but I'm just not going to be able to hit things past a certain density (and jackhammers are just *evil* -- none of that please. If there's jackhammer charts I'm just not even going to try. It's more a "killing your fingers and your keyboard" than a legit difficulty enhancer)

[gold stinger]

I wouldn't think that we would have enough active players to host a Tournament just starring us. Closest thing I can think of to a Tournament that I've wanted to do for the longest time is a Team-Based Tournament, where you can pit Teams against one another in Rounds, and if you're in more than one team you can choose between those teams as to which one you will represent.

The idea isn't really fleshed out yet, and I doubt anyone would be willing to actually contribute to such an idea because there's barely any Rivalry between teams as it is, and we would need the approval of nearly every Team on the website here.

I don't know. Team Blaze seems to think of themselves as our rivals. I'm sure we could get a Team Pony vs. Team Blaze something-or-other going if we want to do the whole Team v Team thing. I'm sure they'd be more than happy to go along with it too.

The question would be one of how to set up an appropriate tournament? How do you factor in things such as differences in skill levels or numbers of members? Would it be a strict AAA-based thing (where the goal is of course AAA or get as close to it as possible) or more "skill token"-ish with special goals per each round?

[TC_Halogen]

I was really interested in Team Pony because it was a great place to hang out and whatnot, but now that plans are being placed to make it a competitive team against Team Blaze, I'm losing interest. I'm not so sure I want to stay. I like the people here a lot and I'm not really saying goodbye yet, but I just have to think about it a bit.

Pretty much this... except I'm not thinking about leaving.

The entire point of this team is going out the window because of this rivalry with Team Blaze. Albeit they misconstrued the team's concepts as being competitive, and if I recall correctly we showed nothing of the kind.

The purpose of this team is mostly just to play FFR, talk about ponies, and most importantly have fun! It doesn't matter how good you are at FFR, everyone is welcome!

Why exactly is this team submitting to the idea? Even if it is being pondered at the moment, we're going against the purpose.

[Findarian]

I think it would be something cool, as I never have been in a team-based rivalry before.

If you don't want to join, it's not like anyone is forcing you to. It's the same as the official tourney. Only half of the people joined in on that, and we were supportive of each other the whole way trying to keep everyone's spirits up.

[TC_Halogen]

It's essentially enhancing that non-existent rivalry that was implied and turning it into a reality. I (personally) don't want to hear the trash-talking that might come about involving the two teams, not to mention I was enjoying the team a lot more with the people just socializing freely with each other.

Whatever, it's a personal thing at this point. I'll figure out what to do later.

[megamon88]

I kind of agree with AJ and Alex; however, if people want to do a tournament, I'm not going to stop them. I won't be participating though.

[ryuyasha]

This was not meant as a "lets turn this team around and be competitive" thing, and it does not have to be a permanent rivalry, it just seemed like a fun idea for an event. Even if it did turn into a rivalry that is different than being enemies. It is not as if we are declaring war on Team Blaze or anything and friendly rivalry often strengthens relations rather than pushes them apart. Often rivals are best friends in fact.

I agree with not wanting to hear trash talking. There should be no trash talking whether this happens or not, but that should go without saying.

As megamon and Findarian pointed out, no one is being forced to join. We would keep it in a separate thread so people would not even have to see it if they do not want to.

In any case I would be sad if anyone left the team because of this. That is not what I wanted to accomplish by suggesting it at all.

If anyone is wanting to quit a team because of rivalry, then it's not like we can stop them. I think more would enjoy a bit of competition rather than a lack of it. Don't be down on yourself because 100% of people don't like what you suggested. That almost never happens >.<

[UserNameGoesHere]

Team Pony isn't competitive in the sense that you don't need to be competitive or pass some rigorous tests to be a part of Team Pony, which isn't true of some of the other teams. We are a more inclusive team.

Team Blaze has been talking about competition a lot recently, and I noticed there were a few on Team Pony who also wanted some sort of competition, hence the thread for discussion of a possible friendly competition between the two teams.

For those who don't want to participate in a competition, that's fine. And it isn't even for-sure there will be a competition yet -- rather we're discussing it. If not enough people want to do it then obviously it's not happening.

I think if anyone starts trash talking their opponents, or if things just start getting too out of hand, shame on whoever does that. If we have a competition, I expect everyone to be on their best behavior and to be good sports about it if they choose to participate.

In fact, if you really don't want the competition, go ahead and state as much in the competition discussion thread. Let us know why you're against it or/etc... and if you would prefer any other team-building events instead. As long as it's relevant to the topic (and not wanting a competition to take place is relevant), feel free to discuss as much.

Welp, time to dump my daily Tournament Update (Because no one updated their scores yesterday...) >.>

It is now Day 6 of Round 6, as we wrap up Day 5 of Round 6. Surprising some people have made an improvement, but most others I think are still sticking to their word of not improving. At least we can get to watch the D6 players battle it out for a trophy. :3 No one was made to last forever in this tournament, except for the people who end up in first place. Let's get down to the scoring spotlight for this tournament update:
