Nice first battle, guys ;)

Smarties will have to win the match by any standard for Graceful/her to advance. If it's 1-0 in favor of mystery, you will each fight the opposite team member (aka Graceful vs. mystery and Aura vs. smarties) for a tiebreaker. If Smarties loses, by a margin of more than 1-0, the other team moves on.

You mean mystery will have to win by a margin of 2-0 or higher. If smarties wins they move on.....seriously Ryan. =P

Like I said, Smarties has to win by a margin of 2-0 or higher for them to advance. I suppose Smarties can also win 1-0 to advance.

my insurence in this tourney relies in somebody elses hands that is what makes this tourney unique.

so yeah no pressure Smarties XD

Volkner's Apprentice September 6th, 2008 6:25 PM

Haha, we hoped to avoid that by having people win like 5-0, but since everyone in round two is tough that isn't likely to happen. 3-0 tops I'd say, unless somebody has an epic switchfest and gets unlucky with a d-dancing sweeper -_-.

My battle with World King will happen next week or later this week, but my partners match should come in sooner provided Prince logs on to schedule.

Aurafire September 6th, 2008 8:03 PM

PRAISE THE LORD! Alex updated the Prize Post! Everyone go look to see an updated list of prizes and some pretty cool pics =P

Volkner's Apprentice September 6th, 2008 8:16 PM

A PM will probably work wonders =P

My battle with Graceful was great, mystery, much like ours. Came down to just a few moves...could have gone either way.

Mystery2009 September 6th, 2008 9:19 PM

I vmd.
you got us this far the least I can do is give my all and win

Volkner's Apprentice September 7th, 2008 6:28 AM

Haha, at least it actually is a Birthday Charmander. Not..that I want it or anything. 0_O...


And mystery, your signature is awesome, and not just because it has a quote from me in it :P. The Nidorina when she jumps on the tetris block is awesome.

smarties will turn up eventually, he is actually looking forward to the battle. Also i have a question with all these prizes how many people will be able to win them? Just curious

Volkner's Apprentice September 7th, 2008 6:43 AM

We're working on it, I think we have 2-3 more prizes than what's currently listed. 1st place in the tournament will probably get their pick of like 4-6, 2nd gets 3-4, 3rd and 4th get 2 and 5th/6th get 1. We'll probably have everyone get to choose in order of place. Either way, top 6 receive a prize, you can count on that. That does mean you'll have to make it past this round to get one ;)

Aurafire September 7th, 2008 7:30 AM

I got my eye on a couple of those =P, Hopefully mystery and I can squeak by

Volkner's Apprentice September 7th, 2008 8:47 AM

Actually I think we can go with this:

1st place-3 of ALEX's bred pokemon + 4 prizes of your choice + the winners "trophy".

2nd place-3 of ALEX's bred pokemon + 3 prizes of your choice + the runner-up "trophy".

3rd place-3 prizes of your choice + the "bronze medal".

4th place-2 prizes of your choice.

5th/6th place-1 prize of your choice.

Mystery2009 September 7th, 2008 11:03 AM

@Ryan thanx lol.

I have my eye on a few prizes myself.
So I have no choice but to win<_<

so how will round tree work with 6 ppl?

Volkner's Apprentice September 7th, 2008 11:51 AM

We'll do two groups of 3 (Red Group/Gold Group) and have a round robin. Each person will battle their group members and the bottom scorer in each group is out. Those two bottom scorers will fight for 5th place (which gets only one prize, just like 6th, but 5th gets to pick first.)

Then the semi-finals will be:
Gold #1 vs. Red #2
Red #1 vs. Gold #2

With the winners facing off in the finals. The losers will fight for the "Bronze Medal Match" aka 3rd place. Then we can start up on tournament two which will have a bunch of new quirks!

Mystery2009 September 7th, 2008 12:24 PM

lets see erm.
so is that with points?

like if someones battles where 2-O and 4-O would that be 8 points?

Basically we'll just go by records and scores. So if you won both your battles 6-0, you'd obviously move on. If you were 1-1, but won your first battle 6-0 and lost your second 0-1, you'd have a +5 score to go along with your 1-1 record, which would determine who moves on.

Volkner's Apprentice September 7th, 2008 12:47 PM

Right. No worries, we'll calculate that once we have the winners here. Now BATTLE YO ROUND TWOS SUCKAHS. pweeze n' tank'youz.

I can't BATTLE MAH ROUND TWOS because bendak and sims haven't decided who's battling who.

Yeah, I'm surprised they haven't...either Bendak isn't responding to sims PMs or sims isn't online to check them. XD Which we can't tell, because he's still invisdable.

Anyway, I'm off to the breeding dungeons to do-over my team but hopefully Znale/Prince will complete their match soon, as well as mystery/smarties.



Tip: Work out a specific block of time to be on to battle folks! "Let's battle Tuesday!" doesn't cut it.

sims796 September 7th, 2008 1:11 PM

F U, Ryan >=[

I'd rather face Matt-O, but Bendak isn't here. So until he returns, I can't give a definite "yes".
