Screw ranks and seeding. I just randomly pitted people against each other (Anya, you better be here for this  )
Match 1: Yoshi Dude vs. Felix
Match 2: Drag vs. Anya
Match 3: Kefka vs. skateboarder11
Match 4: neotransotaku vs. drjayphd
Winner of Match 1 vs. Winner of Match 2 in semis
Winner of Match 3 vs. Match 4 in semis
Semi winners in finals.
And that is what the random drawing has led to 
You decide how many games you play or whatever when you meet your opponent. Find a time to play, pick a room, and then go to it. Report the wins whenever. When everyone has reported the results, I'll just make the next round matchups, which seems pretty easy since they're mapped out above.
As for whoever faces me (sb11 as of now), I like to play best of 9 (whoever wins 5 first). Just to let ya know. Good luck to all. And maybe if I'm not too lazy I'll make some cheap trophy for the winner. |

I've played it online before against Hiryuu. Fun shit, and I wouldn't mind signing up, but I'm not sure if I'll have the time to play, though. |

That sounds like a swell idea. In fact, I still haven't played a game of this on felixpool21 yet. *marks to-do list*
Anyhow folks, get over here and sign up! |

About how many folks will we want/get for this before we start the tournament?
And I'm not picky, by the way. I'll play with whoever wants me, or whoever I get paired with. |

I'll check all the ratings sometime soon, though I'd like to just hear them And be honest. Seeding will need to be implemented if we have a big tourney... or I could just decide who plays who Your pick... and then, we could do best of 7 or 9... your pick! And I'll make a trophy image or something as "incentive" for the winner. |

I love tournaments! I'm in too! -- dragfromacmlms
There's just so many "Drag"s online, I have to differenciate myself beyond the Drag00 bit.
YD and I always are beating each other in this game. Once, she got the 8-ball like a pixel away from the corner pocket at about the start of the game, and then we were hitting our balls in, and then the cue ball hits the 8-ball in there before I have all my balls in.
Oh well. |

I'm in. Different SN, though. Since Mozilla doesn't like Yahoo's games and I'm too lazy to keep switching SN's, I is competing as jjsiedzik. |

You have been accepted.
Oh, and luckily I know you are sktbrdr949 on Yahoo...
Oh, and one more thing we could know so that seeding may be ever so easier when we make the tourney: your rank. I happen to know the ranks of the three players so far, and I will list them:
1. Kefka (1342 as of 5/25)
2. Felix (provisional, 1200 or so)
3. Skateboarder11 (provisional, 1179)
4. YoshiDude (who cares what her rating is? she gets top seed  )
5. drjayphd
6. neotransotaku
7. Drag
8. Anya (perhaps)
So now we have enough as long as Anya can play! (and its not that time consuming, really)
Yea, I'll put the yahoo id's in later.
I'll update them as time goes on, and people can tell me them so we can seed. And if you are like, 1180 or something and a provisional is higher than you in ranking, you are seeded higher than the provisional. Again, I'll update them, and the final seedings/rankings will be right before the tourney. Consider this to be our official list of participants as well for now.
NOTE: All edits are only editing rankings. |

Sounds good. I just signed up as Felixpool21, for the record. It's a fairly straightforward handle. |

Whoa! We talked? I thought it was just you kicking my ass the whole time except for when you forgot to call the pockets. XD Yea, I'll be in, but don't expect me to be so easy like I was on you  And it would make sense for us to have our Yahoo IDs when signing up, so mine would be arey57. And each thing should be best of 9 or something, because 1 game would be too quick and boring.  |

Well, since the subject of tournaments has arisen just recently (a concept which I hope shall spread to many different games), Myself and Kefka got to talking over a game of Yahoo! Pool. How would you folks feel about a pool tournament?
It's a fairly easy process. You need to have a Yahoo! account and some basic knowlege of pool in order to play. If you don't have the former, you can set one up in the span of about five minutes. If you don't have the latter, it's easy to learn.
To get to the Yahoo! Pool tables, you can go to http://games.yahoo.com, sign in, and click "pool" under "Arcade & Other Games". If we were to have this... I suppose we'd need to pick a game room, but I guess I'll leave that up to the rest of you.
Anyone interested? Sign up here. |
