by the looks of things, White Wolf is back
>: Hawk has abandoned me for the superior faggotry of America :/ Will I be allowed to find a replacement or do I have to forfeit this round? :<I would like to be that replacement if that's allowed

What's Round Robin again?
No, Starrodkirby86's explanation is correct. Swiss calculates matchups in each round according to the amount of wins each team/player has. In a Swiss tournament every team does not play every other team. In a round robin all teams play one another. I think Gabi will be using a modified round robin structure though.strager wrote:
I thought that was called Swiss.
Mmm.
Yeah I spoke with Gabi about possible solutions, but he doesn't want to upset any competitors;p Said he'd ask peppy what would be allowed Oo Apparently White Wolf is also unavailable so that's 2 teams in this round that will forfeit...Hopefully he comes up with a suitable solution As long as the "substitutes" come from within the tournament I don't think it would be too unfair:< For instance I suggested that niedzwiedz1124 and I merge to create one team instead of forfeiting both teams :< Previous players who had to forfeit like you could maybe also replace or something :<foulcoon wrote:
Eh Rolled and I probably would have beaten them out had he been able to play. I asked Gabi if I could substitute Cyclone but he wasn't cool with it (lol), maybe he would let you and I team up?Lucidity wrote:
SPOILERI do hope you don't make it into the finals purely via opponent forfeits. :<
i would agree,tho,if gabi would team us up,how would we solve it with playing?Lucidity wrote:

I know how a conventional double elimination tournament runs. Ideally you'd want 8 or 16 etc teams for it though. We're stuck with 5 so that's why I suggested this possible bracket which is sort of like a double elim bracket.vytalibus wrote:
No, that's not how double-elimination works. If we were to have six teams into the double-elimination process, then a team will have to get two losses for it to be eliminated. The first loss will put a team into the losers bracket where it will have to fight against another loser team to stay in the competition.
The problem with this process is the number of teams. Since we have six teams, we'll have three winners and three losers in the first round. The match-up will be confusing after that, since the judges wouldn't know who should fight which.
I do believe eliminating three more teams to leave three for the Round Robin competition would be better, since they will have the chance to fight all the other teams.
EDIT: As for the poll, I don't see the problems of merging two members from two incomplete teams. They've made it that far. Surely it would be different if someone from a team that already lost would try to replace someone from the remaining teams.
i did read it, i just didnt bring it up seeing as your team already decided to forfeit. am i right? also the vote was not about you and lucidity, it was about niedzweid and lucidity, but i guess people might have missread? therefor yea you are the man cause no one dares to vs you i guess.foulcoon wrote:
Nobody read the part that said i would team up with Lucidity if possible. Everyone voted No because foulcoon is the fucking man and nobody wants to vs. him mirite?
Also you realize you're putting DxS and Zato into the final 3 (is it 3?) teams without them having actually played a match? Hilarious. Its safe to assume that those 2 account for 2 of the 'No' votes.
Why are you so defensive? The post was originally the first paragraph that I posted as a joke. Then I edited in the second paragraph because I just thought it was ironic that over half the teams probably would have knocked them out already. Calm down man, it's just a game.Gabi wrote:

also, i do realize that i put DxS and Zato in the semi finals without them having to play a match, guess who is responsible for making them win on walk over???? now that is hilarious yea. but do you think i planned it out for them to reach the finals by walk overs? no. whether or not they did vote no, there was atleast double the amount of no votes then yes. oh yea heres another thing white_wolf is back so the poll is OFF.
im sorry for making a tournament that didnt go your way.

Gratz to the finalists and especially the winners~
Thanks for running the tourney Gabi:) I know it takes a lot of effort and dealing with *&@#!, so it's really appreciated:) There were a few hiccups, as in any tourney, but you dealt with them admirably I thought.
So ... what was 1st prize?
