It only takes you 15-30 minutes to write a tournament starting post? Those suckers take me forever.

They take me some time too. I usually scribble the cliff's notes at work so it's only 30 minutes or so at the actual computer. 30min. was an estimation, because it seems like a lot of people don't always pore over their writeups as much as a few of us seem to.

Damn straight. I mean, the baby's already been conceived, so Ambient's work should be done.

uhuh

I've been known to take a few hours till I feel every single angle has been covered - and then I find a few more. My general strategy/tactics tend to stay the same once I've decided on a course of action, but I always end up tweaking something or another. I should start doing a "cliff notes" version though, might save me some time.

Anyway, mine was sent in yesterday.

It took me at least 45 to an hour to make the start up post for this particular tourney, incl. the uploading of the scans but the idea has been in my head for a few days.. So ahm yeah! for the more exp. participants it would probably take a lot less..

Lols! So i thought but then reality sets in and well lets just say you couldn't be more, more, more wrong my friend... Just imagine having to wake up every 2 - 3 hours to assist your wife w/ feeding (topping it off with formula) then there's seems to be that never ending crying (they're only way of communicating), the BM (every 30min after feeding) which u have to clean up cause by this time your wife would be far too exhausted w/ feeding and pain from labor + you've got to somehow work this out with your job somehow and this is just whats coming in my head right now, believe me there is more.. lol's but once you look at your baby's face sleeping/smile, man all that disappears; stressed, tiredness, etc.. etc.. all the bad.. 🙂 😆 ..

Black Bolt Z: Your between 14 - 17? Your good height wise...

Smurph hasn't been on for a month. I PMed him, no response. What would you guys suggest?

I can try and contact Joel.

i would usually throw my hat in, but Blair is kinda holding a straight flush, and he most likely held back something greater........

... idk... if he is out, you are down to 4, and it sort of balances again, so you could sort of "start fresh", or try to rework a round robin with what is left, but I honestly don't know man. I'm down, whatever happens, so there is that, lol

Sent Joel a message on Facebook. We usually communicate on chats, but he's been rather unresponsive lately. I know he was on, but no reply on either chat or message.

😬

I would say bring in two or more combatants, but since teams and plans have already been posted, it would give newbies a lil bit of an advantage.

are the more people looking to join?

even make it so newbs only debate one-another in 1st round to make that fairer

three out of seven members dropped. This sucks. This is like an all-time low for tourneys (among those that actually started).

OK, how about we just pair up the four contestants remaining into DEs and finish this up? But I kind of feel like i'm giving a free win to whoever faces colossus.

make them fight without prep?

That would be even worse. Two of his characters are almost useless.

oh, I meant who he was facing, give colossus prep

either way, you are right, wolv and OR aren't going to last, this just takes away the "auto-win" button from whoever he faces.

I didnt spend all day sunday writing up a huge post for nothing 😬

I vote to let Gundam, Charlotte, and Starscream in - being that all have expressed interest in joining. However, none of them get secret picks since as of now none of us have secret picks. I'd also give them a one loss record, as long as they can still have a chance of winning in the end (I havent run the numbers, but seeing as round one has already passes, it only seems fair).

Thoughts?

I'm also for finishing this up as soon as possible if you want to go that route. We could designate a coach to Colossus (someone like Digi who has no excuse to not help....he doesnt have a baby after all 😛 ) and hope that helps?
