2nd VOOT Rookie Tournament (CANCELLED)
EDIT: CANCELLED BECAUSE I HAVE A BETTER IDEA
I think it's about time. I don't know a date yet but we've got enough fresh meat hanging around here that we should try to do something.
Same deal as before. Double elimination, random seeding. Anyone not on The List is eligible to compete. Prize? TBD.
THE LIST (in no order):
anikingVOOT
anikingVOOT
anikingVOOT
PhantomPhotonX
Shamanic Beat
sandsfel
Zaarock
MentholMo0se
chunkypuff
OE Exorcet
Emperor of Wu
Doomhunter
chasiumen
DaveRudolph
SixtyHz
Sixfortyfive
neo helbeast
neoKEN360
chiwageka
LMA I Teuska
Schooly D
SolarSonic
The entire country of Japan
The List will be updated as people remind me of who should be disallowed from competing, since I know I've forgotten some.
If your name isn't on that list, I fully expect you to show up. Tell your friends too. Streaming will be provided courtesy of Team Schooly D Industries, Inc.
Edit 1: Added neo helbeast
Edit 2: Added neoKEN360, chiwageka and LMA I Teuska
Edit 3: Added myself
Edit 4: Added SolarSonic

Re: 2nd VOOT Rookie Tournament
Man, Schooly, you forgot a lot of people. You forgot at least 10, like anikingVOOT and anikingVOOT, amongst other amazing players like anikingVOOT.
Being serious, though, I'd be happy to participate, and I'm pretty sure anyone who's participating in my local tourney who have an Xbox LIVE account would be glad to play as well. A lot of them don't, however, so it'll only be a few of us.
All this being said, I forgot to mention my VR. I'll be playing with the oh so heavily populated Temjin. I mean, seriously, I played straight Temjins for two days a while back. I know we all like our Mongols, but it makes me feel like I'm conforming to the crowd. At least I want to learn Stein-Vok. D:

Re: 2nd VOOT Rookie Tournament
I'm in if I can find out what day to take off work for it. I'll be Temjin or Fei-Yn Knight, I'll decide when I can give a confirmation that I'll be participating.

Re: 2nd VOOT Rookie Tournament
neoKEN360, chiwageka and LMA I Teuska should probably be on "The List" as well
Also, switching VRs is allowed or not?

I'm not at the point yet where I'd lay down the rules, but I can say VR switching won't be allowed.

Re: 2nd VOOT Rookie Tournament
I let a few of my friends know, like D4RK 3NCRYPT3R (who just sent in his account registration) so if they're interested, they'll speak.
It feels weird, though... I've beaten some of the people on that list. They may have just been luck wins or something, but I have beaten them. You also forgot yourself on that list, Schooly. If there's people I've managed to at least luck win on there, then you deserve to be on there as I don't recall beating you. Maybe a luck won round, but never a match. Kind of like with Aniking. But I'm pretty sure he's not trying considering I can get him below 70% sometimes.

Re: 2nd VOOT Rookie Tournament
I'll add myself but I thought my ineligibility was implied since I'd be running the tournament and since I think I'm still technically the Everywhere-but-Japan-also-excluding-aniking-but-he's-from-Japan-so-he-doesn't-count champion. I could be wrong about that though, I might have missed a tournament.Tet wrote:You also forgot yourself on that list, Schooly.
Well, SOMEONE has to win, right? Might as well be you!If there's people I've managed to at least luck win on there, then you deserve to be on there as I don't recall beating you.

Fun fact about aniking though: he never really tries against anyone we know, even when he's losing a round. Against my Cypher, Phantom's Temjin, and Menthol's Grys-Vok (back when Menthol played ) he'll play at maybe 85%. Against my other VRs and against most Americans he'll cruise at 50%-70%. Against Vash you'd be lucky if he even jump canceled.
When he fights good Japanese players like hbv502 (now GK RAIDEN) he tries, and it's very neat to watch what he does differently.

Not to frustrate Schooly, because I know how he hates all things Temjin, but I, as a Temjin main, would like to encourage you to use whomever you feel comfortable with. If it's Temjin, great. If it's not him, that's great too. The ONLY thing you can't do (at least, I would hope you wouldn't), is to spam the surfboard, a la Vash. Because if you want to be good with Temjin, you shouldn't have to, except in an emergency. Otherwise, I think Temjin is fair, fun to use, and fun to fight against. Those are my two cents.Tet wrote:All this being said, I forgot to mention my VR. I'll be playing with the oh so heavily populated Temjin.

Amen to that. I don't think I will ever truly understand. It's just mind boggling.Schooly D wrote:When he fights good Japanese players like hbv502 (now GK RAIDEN) he tries, and it's very neat to watch what he does differently.
Anyway, I'd be happy to watch if there is room. Looks like fun.

Re: 2nd VOOT Rookie Tournament
I've seen that video before, made me chuckle so hard.
Don't worry, the only times I use the Blue Slider/Surfing Ram/SWORD AND BOARD!!1!1 is:
A. When I want to die in an awesome way
B. For sh**s and giggles
C. To show somebody I know in real life just how much they suck when they're starting out
If I do it any other time, it's because either an accident when I got distracted or everything in my body tells me to use it. The former never hits, the latter always does.
Glad to see you signed yourself up, though, D4RK. Good luck to us both.

Re: 2nd VOOT Rookie Tournament
I'm no threat. I don't even have the Xbox anymore sadly. I'll try to watch the tournament though, hopefully we've grown since the last one. And the prize was really good last time, so greedy people should sign up too so I have more rounds to watch.
