The Elite Four (and Champion)

[Shoryuken]

Registration ends April 19th

That's right! I've decided to hold a contest of sorts. Me and Isaak thought about this and thought it would be a good idea. The idea is to have the five best smashers in GW challenge other players to see if they can defeat all members in the group.

RULES
3 stock
Champion match will be 5 stock.
No time limit
No items
Best 3/5


Allowed Stages
Battlefield
Battleship Halberd
Bridge of Eldin
Delfino Plaza
Final Destination
Smashville
Pirate Ship
Jungle Japes
Yoshi's Island (Brawl)

EVERYTHING ELSE IS BANNED.

-If you start on a stage other than what's listed, the match will be restarted.
-If you start with items on, the match will be restarted.
-If the match has to be restarted more than 3 times because you cannot follow these directions, you are disqualified.

I made a seeding thread (http://forums.gamewinners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=563540) to see who will be in the Elite Four and who will be the Champion.

NOTE: If you are chosen to be a member of the Elite Four you will not be able to participate in this contest because you can't fight yourself. If you do not wish to be a member and just want to do the challenge then just say so when seeding is complete and the runner up will be chosen.

[Skittleman]

Sounds fun. I'd like to see these skills the best players have that I've only heard about. Count me in too.

[Krazy Koco King]

If I'm not chosen in the seeding thing then I'll gladly do what I can give the ones who do make it a hard time. ^_^

[SuperSimon]

[Shoryuken]

Updated. Also, registration date moved to 23rd. If not many join, I will lower it back to the 18th.

[Haze]

Haze, I'm starting to think maybe you're me from the future or something. My birthday is right after yours. The 24th.

[COKTAL]

I'll join.us Also, if we use a pokemon against them, do we get something special(seeing as The Elite Four are from pokemon)?

[Skittleman]

No.

Whoa, it is? WE ALL HAVE TO SMASH ON OUR BIRTHDAYS. It will be epic.

Gee, having three consecutive birthdays... It's spooky, man!

Also, updated.

[SkullKid&Link]

ill join

[melee_master02]

'Updated'? Hopefully next time I am included! Didja miss my last post or something?

[Shoryuken]

EDIT: I'm closing this on Saturday. The challengers will go by the order they are in the list.

Me and Haze are in the Elite Four so we won't be facing ourselves...

Also, the seeding is complete. Tied for the fourth member is Koco, Skullkid, and SonicStream. Do any of you want to drop out or smash off to see who is the fourth member?

[SkullKid&Link]

Isaak- 6
Haze- 6
Quaz- 4
Shoryuken- 4
SkullKid&Link- 3
Krazy Koko King- 3
SonicStream- 3

I guess quaz and isaak arent participating..If they were Isaak and haze would have to fight for champion and then us 3 would fight for 5th member. Since quaz and isaak havent shown up i suppose Haze would be champion. Then you me koco and someone else would be elite 4.

Honestly this just needs more participants..

[GwJumpman]

Better add me in too Shory. And while your add it, put one of those sexy asterisks next to my name too. :D

[Ralph Nader]

Me and (Hopefully) Haze are participating. And I hope quaz can participate. Ive heard great things about him.

[RipTide]

I'm definitely in. I'm sort of that good fighter that everyone forgets is good because he doesn't play that often. It's fun that way. It makes me that unsuspected dark horse.

[The Flame]

I suppose I'll be in this. Sign me up.

[Shoryuken]

Okay so who CAN'T make it? Haze said he probably won't and I think Isaak mentioned being at a wedding but that really doesn't matter since I can postpone matches for the next day, which is not painfully long.

If more people quit the group than how many reserves there are, I'm just going to go ahead and pick people from my experience fighting them.

Rip is a definite choice for me. So if Haze, Isaak and Quaz can't participate, Rip, welcome aboard the Elite Four. But Rip ALSO has limited online time. So I was thinking if not him, Skittleman and if I have time to face him and see if he's good, Skullkid.

[God.]

Yo holmes, count me in

[SkullKid&Link]

Those who have voted for me know im good.. I thought i did fight with you before.. It was a match with skittleman isaak and you.(unless that wasnt you using Gdorf)

SKittleman is a good candidate. If there is an elite four and champion, who would be the trainers fighting us.. That means about half will be elite four and half will not.. If you go on personal experience to pick members i guess pick the members u believe should be in.. I don't really mind if i am or not.

[RipTide]

I'm on vacation this week! ^_^ I can make time for Brawl when needed, but I won't make too many promises.

[Quaz]

Im actually gonna pass this one out guys, Im already in 2 other tourneys and eeh... I just dont feel myself being in a 3rd event at the same time.

[Shoryuken]

Oh okay.

THE ELITE FOUR IS DECIDED. If you can't be in, let me know and I'll... do something.

[Haze]

I'm posting to confirm that I'm out for sure. Sorry guys.

[RipTide]

Sorry Haze.

Niiice. I can't wait to take my first try at these guys. Oh and Shory, you have me on the participants list twice.

[GwJumpman]

Shouldn't we now have an inter-elite four + champ battle to see who rightfully deserves to be in which spots. This seeding was good for picking the five but it shouldn't have determined the spots too.

EDIT:Well do a placement contest.

Most likely Skull or haze will be champ.

[Shoryuken]

Here's the plan.

Members will fight each other. Count your wins. Most wins will go at the top from Champion to the fourth member. If there is a tie in wins for the Champion's seat, a second Brawl will begin.

[GwJumpman]

Instead of random fights, how about we count our next 5 serious fights and record those wins and losses.

[Krazy Koco King]

I'll be able to be in this. But you mentioned something about Rip having limited online time and thus not being chosen? I have a limit on my play time, but it's school, and that's over at 4:00, so that may be ok.

At any rate, we need to make it by percentage and not by total number because having the most wins could just mean you played the most matches, whereas a percentage is more precise. For example, a 5/10 record would still beat a 49/100 record even though 49 is a larger number. However, we should have a minimum match number so somebody can't just win one match and say they have a 100% record. I'm agreeing with SonicStream that 5 is a good number for the minimum.

[xSuperSonicx]

Umm is it too late to register?....I can't tell what you changed the date to. But I've been wanting to test my skills against the best so if I'm not too late sign me up.

[Shoryuken]

Okay percentages work.

And yes it is too late to join. Sorry.

[Kalinar Ainura]

When the elite four challenge ends will there be a new one? And can you challenge current elite four members for the title?

Just curious.
=)

[Krazy Koco King]

I forgot to mention that a few days ago Isaak absolutely creamed me. It was like... let's say, 2-8. His Kirby as evil.

Yes, I know, that puts me at like a 20% win record >_<. But all it means is that Isaak is better than me, I'll have to play the rest of you (again for some of you) to see where I fall. But whatever the standings do come out to be, Isaak should be ahead of me.

[Shoryuken]

I've been neglecting this. Okay. I need to play you Koco. Do you have a time you can go on to settle this?

So just to be sure. Fight other members of Elite Four and record your wins/total games played. This will be for all matches not separate games so you have one big percentage.

[GwJumpman]

If you see me on just join my match. If they're's more than one person in it that isn't from GW and that i'm not in another elite four match, I'll quit the match and make a new room, then you join again, ok?

[Krazy Koco King]

We actually have to do our Haze Tournament match as well, Shory. I'm going to be on some today, but my grudge match with gymclasshero66 comes first. If we do face, Shory, our first one will be for Haze Tournament, the rest will be for this.

[Shoryuken]

Okay I've decided that each member will do 3 matches against one another.

So it will go WINS/12 = percentage.

I still haven't heard from Koco. I'm sure I will face Isaak sometime today and maybe Skullkid if I can reach him.

[RipTide]

(This is taking too long...)

I had forgotten all about this thing.

[Skittleman]

I forgot about this too.

How does it work?

[Krazy Koco King]

Well, you probably already know from reading the Smash Bros Shory but I'm grounded right now. Sorry.

EDIT: Whenever we do play though, do you want to play our Haze matches and then these, or kinda count them all together? Cause it could be like eight matches of we do one after the other.
