@Jermesque: Flip plays Sheik, and I believe he has a pocket Fox.

Aint nuthin pocket about it =P

 

[PGH Carroll]

Theres 2 rounds of pools right?

 

[SuperMatt]

2 waves, only 1 round

 

[FlipX]

No carroll, there is one round of pools but it is split up into 2 parts to allow for food breaks. Learn to read scrub.

 

[PGH Carroll]

I'll do my regular MM at this.

[Kels88]

I just beat that game not too long ago. It was fun as hell.

 

[SFAT]

God damn this is killing me. So much hype. Tonight PewPewU and I will be streaming for some last minute practice.

[Oro?!]

Needs way more teams.

 

[SCOTU]

I just remember Teams exists. Kels, Shady, Shaeden?

 

[Nakamaru]

My pool is sooo free, bracket time for me

Yea, Free for me. :O What out MI cause Pittsburgh is coming to wreck **** up.

 

[PEEF!]

I just remember Teams exists. Kels, Shady, Shaeden?

Our pool prophesizes that we will meet in glorious battle. Look forward to meeting you.

Juggleguy, could you post the hype pool matches that you are planning on putting on stream during our first promotion hour?

 

[Dekuschrub]

will be tuning in for stream for sure!

give em hell boys

also wtf at no teams

sometimes i wonder if melee tourneys should not have doubles. I love doubles personally, but it seems like less and less people enter doubles

 

[Kail]

I'm guessing there are a lot of 3rd and 5th type wheels going who would enter if they met someone at the tournament.

 

[idea]

Add Riddlebox + Idea to teams plx

 

[Juggleguy]

@ Deku: those are just the teams I gathered from registration info and asking around... pretty sure there will be a lot more than that

@ Peef: I was thinking something like this:
s2j vs Duck, Lovage vs anyone, KirbyKaze vs Shaeden, Rat vs Weon-X, Tink vs D20, Little England vs 4% APR, Shady vs Vudujin, Dart vs Kail

@ Idea: k, added

 

[Dekuschrub]

yeah I know there will be more than that

still the number of teams is usually far less than 50% number of singles entrants. makes me cryfacebears

 

[Roller]

2 samus matches. That will be.. Exciting.

 

[MonkUnit]

Mundungu and I are teaming, I think. I'll get confirmation from him.

Have you considered switching pool 10 with pool 7? I think ORLY vs Vanz will be one of the hypest pools matches in the tournament and should replace something, maybe Pool 7? Pool 8?

 

[Juggleguy]

Yeah that's something we could do on tourney day. Not Pool 7 though, I don't think you realize how hype Vudujin matches are. I'd rather switch it with Pool 8.

 

[PEEF!]

Hahahaa I just edited my post to include Pool 8 as a possible option right before i read your post.

 

[SCOTU]

Our pool prophesizes that we will meet in glorious battle. Look forward to meeting you.

Likewise. Certainly a match worth looking forward to.

 

[Juggleguy]

Alright, Pool 8 and Pool 10 have switched positions. I also switched HIV+ and Tafokints, so all the NorCal players can have their food break during the same wave.

 

[Kail]

Are you only going to have the most 'hyped' match on the stream or more cause some pools seem like they'd have 2 or 3 good ones.

 

[Juggleguy]

Are you only going to have the most 'hyped' match on the stream or more cause some pools seem like they'd have 2 or 3 good ones.

We'll write down one 'hype' matchup on each pool sheet and make those two people play it on the livestream setup.

 

[PEEF!]

Are you only going to have the most 'hyped' match on the stream or more cause some pools seem like they'd have 2 or 3 good ones.

I think that 1 match per 8 pools is going to cover quite a bit of time. Assuming 10 minutes per set, that is an hr 20. This means that ORLY vs VanZ might not even get to play during featured time. Orrr we can just have them play in a different order. But we can grab pools matches whenever we want if something looks good.

Juggle, do we want to do the same thing for wave 2? We won't be featured at that point, but we might have just as many if not more viewers as the stream climbs the list of highest concurrent viewership.

 

[Juggleguy]

Yeah, definitely. Same thing for Wave 2, it's still the best way to hype up the stream, featured or not.

EDIT: I wrote in my picks for hype matchups on the Google Doc.

 

[Oro?!]

Are the hype matchups the ones right under every pool?

I hope I can put on a good show vs SFAT then.

Yeah good luck man.

Imma have to do it huge to make an entertaining match vs Unknown haha. Super excited though.

[Kels88]
