Leo's Tourney!!!

maybe the debates will prove me wrong...I'd love to see how his opponent will put him down. but you better believe that smurph will have a shitload of stuff to show just how hard it would be to do so...

again, I feel like I'm either missing a rule or some other subtelties of the tourney. because from where I stand, I see smurph's team basically steamrolling through this tourney.

...nope, still not doin' anything for me.

tourney update--MYSTERIO BANNED FOR POSSESSING OFFENSIVELY TELEPORTATION ABILITY

Here he teleports Black Cat's mask into Spiderman's neck - it is lodged in there and is partially exposed:

banned for the same reason blink is banned. sorry to PG but no neutering=no neutering. he has til midnight tonight to select someone new since i believe this was an honest error and i didn't know mysterio possessed that skill.

damn id love to try a tourny thing, should have a tourny for beginners lmao. seems rather cool, curious if this has been asked or stated already when does all this start?

I actually predict that smurph might win this entire tourney with a flawless voting record...with not one vote cast against him. that should prob be a tourney first, right?

Are judges selected? If not, I wouldn't mind doing it since im sitting this one out.

all right, consider yourself in. 👆

POOL B ANNOUNCEMENT:

if PG doesn't check in and realize he needs someone new by tonight, i will give him until tomorrow at midnight to find an accpetable replacement, backing the match up to a WED start at 5EST, instead of tues. match will then END on SAT at midnight.

as much as i HATE any delay, i'm trying to be fair . . .

i'd like to get matches started on TUES evening, 5EST. 8 posts/competitor and all matches will close on FRI midnight. that will be the general format throughout, barring complications.

schedule as follows:

week 1: 1 vs 3 (both pools always)
week 2: 2 vs 3
week 3: 1 vs 2

week 4: 1 vs 2 x-overs
week 5: finals

8 posts/competitor. opening post will NOT count as a post UNLESS it exceeds a single post in length.

battlefield for week 1--both pools same battlefield:

post-apocalyptic new york city--city is partially overgrown with wildlife and most of the city is in ruins. no life besides plant-life anywhere in the area.

prep area=unbreakable, opaque domes in what is left of central park. start 1km apart, 10secs prep.

anything else anyone needs to know?

for those wondering here is a list of on-board judges:

delph
galan
jake
jlking
bada
kfish
pr
eny
guy22
whitewitch
(wet) blanket (heh--i crack me up)
KM
bats
kandy

i can find someone else i think, but klum..... klum was special, and not for the offensive teleporting.

Sorry to hear it PG, because it's clear you weren't trying to be devious.

On the other side, the ability to remain clear with the guidelines and rules even with just a single feat is something not every tourney host could've done. Kudos to leo for being sympathetic but firm.

And is it too late to change my version of Spider-Man to Uni-Power Spidey?

From the updated Odds thread. I wanted to post it here as well so it can be used as a reference.

Some interesting teams, there.

The first matches are starting today, if I'm not mistaken? And it's Smurph vs Omega in an opening match of pool A?

Seriously though, I am nervous, especially since my first attempt at a Tourney went so poorly.
