@Kof peeps: If you guys are cool with it, there's space on Sundays to run the ranbats. It might be possible to get the stream on iPlayWinner just like AE and MvC3. If you're not okay with Sunday, please let me know otherwise I will change it to Sunday. As it stands, it's still going to be Friday the 8th.


Reiki.Kito

Sorry, dude. If we have it on sunday, watch it on the stream at iPlayWinner :-D

Ash

If you guys are streaming next week, let me know. I'll make the trip up north.

elrosa

how will you do the standings?

this is interesting and would like to start somethin like this in MEXICO DF when i get back...

Reiki.Kito

Results are posted for the Top 8 of July 10th! Please check the second post. There are 5 more rounds till the end of the season!

Ranking battles are done by points. Top 8 participants get points ranging from 10 to 1. The people with the most points at the end of the season (which is 6 weeks biweekly), are ranked 1st, 2nd, 3rd respectively. Just a note, we were an hour late, but had consistent stream of matches so delays weren't that bad! I figure it would be nightmarish with more though!

In any case, congrats to all participants!

"Top 8 participants get points ranging from 10 to 1"

How do you decide how much points?

Reiki.Kito

1st gets 10
2nd gets 7
3rd gets 5
4th gets 3
5th and 6th get 2
7th and 8th get 1

You can do it any way you want. In other tournaments I run, I usually give them even numbers so the math comes out simple. However, Southtown prefers odd numbers so it's okay.

elrosa

Didn't notice until now, but, you should put the timer at 60 seconds per match, not 99....

After testing it recently, I can see your point and I'll bring it up to Southtown to see if that can be changed for the tournament.

Demoninja

Do we get punished if we put it in training mode. I'm just asking is it cool if I put it in training mode but pick the same team? I autopilot and set it to training mode 90% of the time.

Reiki.Kito

It takes more effort to put INTO training mode than out of it. It's just a common courtesy for me because I have to run it and if someone complains that you switched characters or something; I have to mediate it. It makes it that much easier for problems to start. So if you could please do that, it'd make things run smoothly and give no one a reason to complain.

If something goes wrong, I'd rather it be something I can control like a 3 vs. 5 goof up than having to reset the game because someone accused you of cheating.

Demoninja

Yeah I'll try to remember to not put it in training mode. Like I said though I do it automatically.
