I have a very important exam myself on friday, so I hadn't been able to play for that reason.  Studying. I rather do it on friday (after my time) to not steal valuable study time.____________________ AIM: gamefreak1337, MSN: Emil_sim@spray.se, XMPP: ailure@xmpp.kafuka.org

Updated the little HTML sidebar thing in the first post.
I'd say, giving them until Monday morning. Weekends will be best, and I'll try and get the rest of them matched via IRC. (WE CAN DO THIS, YOU GUYS) But man, double elimination sucks for large tournaments. ____________________ I dealt with it. |

Will the second round matchups be determined by another random draw, or will they be matched up by your position in the original draw? |

Posted by Ninetales Colin's asked me that before and I'm not exactly sure just yet. That'll be determined once we have everyone here with their games played. Honestly, it wouldn't matter either way if it was drop-down or if it was another randomized draw for both brackets. |

I won.
BooUrns led at first with 2-0, but I managed to turn the tides and won with 3-2.
And we played another match, and I won again, though with 3-0 or something. Then we played a few matches after that, and he managed to beat me once even. Heh. ____________________ AIM: gamefreak1337, MSN: Emil_sim@spray.se, XMPP: ailure@xmpp.kafuka.org

Been patient enough to give this more than another week and I've pulled the DQ on Kirby Mario for inactivity, moving him to the L bracket pending a possible replace by...Krisan Thyme. Not sure yet, but I know that cpu's been trying and I've heard nothing from Kirb and after flipping a coin on it, I've decided we need to get the ball moving when everyone else could do theirs on time.
I'll let you guys know on the new scheds coming up in a few. |

Went to Yoro.
Okay guys, need to see if you guys can get some of your matches done. Preferably I'd like them done BEFORE the deadline this time. If the deadline comes and we don't have matches played, I won't give the whole week thing again. :\ |

Ailure and I went ahead and played our match already. Hopefully this will spur more people to play their rounds early and not wait till the day before.
Anyways, Ailure got the jump on me real good. I lost nasty the first round 3-0 I got my bearings after that and won the 2nd match. The 3rd round was full of counter explosions and tense comebacks. Boom 2-3 I won! Good Game |

I got my ass handed to me. Oh well, now I know Hiryuu's strategy, so I can practice it. 
I kinda hate it though, I wasn't doing as well as I could have for some reason. Laggy connection? Nervousness? Crappy level selection? Who knows.  ____________________  |

Well, Drag had a rough night against me. I won 2-0 (3-0; 3-0).
The match for the two of us is: here. Just thought I point out a few things in the run for those of you in this to get a few pointers or six: 1st game - Before I start (if you didn't already know), the trick to the music change is pausing the game with START and hitting SELECT to change the music. Just thought you guys might want to know some of the 'sekret' customizations the game has. This same trick can be employed in Tetris Blast on the GB and other games that have Bombliss in them (as far as I know). This one, interestingly enough, is a simple map. If you connect the three would-be lines together, as I've done, and score some bomb explosions spread out, you practically win. The total garbage start isn't too great so this one is over fairly quick. Note the centralized superbomb (or four bombs, 2x2, placed) technique I employ at the end. This is a common thing on my part and really something a lot of people should take into account if they want a fast way to win. This will take out a 10x10 area if centralized properly. 10x10 = 100 damage at maximum, not to mention the extra addons if you actually chain that. You'll likely win with a setup like that (and it is possible). 2nd game - Well, this round was a double-blunder on both of our parts. Drag lost on a count of overstacking but after my initial blast I screwed up on placing a 1-line blowup on the far left. This accomplishes nothing. Honestly, you WANT to STAY AWAY from 1-line attacks. Half the time, unless with superbombs, they accomplish jack crap. Had Drag accumulated a big chain, I likely would've ate it that round. Thankfully, that wasn't the case and the match went to me. That particular map is one of the more difficult ones but is really meant for a lot of 2-line placements with bombs and vast amounts of speed to get to the core. It's an easy set, at least. On the edge, you can set up a chain to get pieces to the bottom if you get garbage floatup too, but it's a hard setup. 3rd game - Honestly, had Drag followed up after my climb to the top, he should've won this. I was setting up a rather large combo start but my pieces were crap. Well when Drag got me towards the top, he forced my hand I had to attack him a little bit at a time. I used a lot of nested lines (no bombs in a line, hence no explosion) with this. Once I got the stack down to about the center, I took a bomb-line piece and got a small bit down at the bottom, giving me a nested one-line at the very bottom, which makes 2-line attack or more very easy and thus giving me ease with bombs. The rest was just attacking him until he could do no more. A 3-superbomb finish was more than adequate. Fun technique on that drop of 1-bit? Try making it to where it drops a whole LINE of said bit, and not just necessarily one or even four or five. It's a hard set, but you can get a 10 or so doing things that way AND nest it. This obviously gets very messy for the opposition. 4th game - This is actually an easier map then it looks. This is very similar to the 00-map but with an extra step involved. If you take out the initial top, blocking you from the bottom, and nest a line to explode to drop down a buncha crap, as shown here, you get one heck of an explosion. This almost wins the battle for me entirely. This shortly ends after the one-two punch. 5th game - Another one that's easier than it looks. When you get a setup like this, with open edges at either side, abuse the heck out of nested lines and/or blow the heck out of it was Tetrises. Your choice really on this map as it's a bit easier to do with massive blowups than strategic sets. This one was setup so well so it ended up going a little longer than I wanted to. 6th game - Minus the fact that it took two blowups to accomplish correctly (I was going for one, missed a bomb placement because I was hurrying), this was an absolutely perfect setup. Again, using that nest principle, I took the lines that were extending out and made nested lines and continued up to the top, spreading my bombs out (hopefully) even. At the very top, I let one go, taking a good chunk with me. At the last one, it took the rest of the stack. This took the screen and won it. This technique is flatout unbeatable but it takes time to setup. If you can attack the person first with speed when you see them pulling something like this; it will make their job a little harder with the impulse attack. Just make sure you don't wait too long or this happens. All in all, not too bad...but he said it himself that he was nervous. Suffice to say, when round two came around, it showed. :\ Oh well, he'll do well for the rest of the time. He was better outside the tourney than he was in it on a test run and he's not an easy opponent to beat when he's in his groove. Anyways, I may just see how you guys would react if the rules got kicked up a notch towards the final round (i.e. HARD being used instead of EASY). |

Hahhh...
C'mon guys, I gave you a full month this time and I'm only seeing half the games played. There's a week left before the deadline. Surely you remaining ones can play them by then...I hope... |
