Hey, I'm gonna run a tournament of my own. It may have been done a few times before, but they're good fun and the more the merrier, eh? Okay then, so it's going to work like this:
---------------------------------------------
There are sixteen places available (four groups of four). To register for the tournament - you don't need SSBM to do this - pick one of the characters below:

- Mario
- Dr. Mario
- Luigi
- Bowser
- Peach
- Yoshi
- Donkey Kong
- Captain Falcon
- Ganondorf
- Fox McCloud
- Falco
- Ness
- Ice Climbers
- Kirby
- Samus
- Zelda
- Link
- Young Link
- Pikachu
- Jiggly-Puff
- Marth
- Roy

Once you've picked the character you want, tell me by posting a message in this thread. If, however, you notice that someone already has the character you want, you can still have that character but please specify a different colour in the post.
---------------------------------------------
All the rules will be set as default and the matches will be two minutes long. The arena will be RANDOM each time, and your characters will be set at CPU Level 9. The only change to the rules will be the objects on VERY HIGH probability, to make for a more unpredictable match. I will start the matches at 18:00 tomorrow (25th July) providing sixteen people have signed up.
---------------------------------------------
It will start with group stages (A,B,C,D) and you will play against the other three people in your group totalling three matches before you get to the knock out stage. Once the group stages are up, the top two people from each group will qualify for the quarter finals, then, logically, it will go onto the semi finals, third place play offs, and ultimately the grand final.
---------------------------------------------
I thought this might be a fun thing to do, considering the recent success of Foreman's tournament - so post you character and possibly colour to register for the sixteen!

(Uncle Albert shortly collapses due to a heart and brain seizure caused by over-excitements. Tiltawhirl laughs, nicks Albert's trophy and proceeds to poke a kidnapped Dr. Mario with a rather thorny stick.)

[It's that moment you've all been waiting for. The Final Match. The Decider. I tried to do a little more commentary on this than usual, so enjoy. Check the other Awards Ceremony post to see the results in full]

The Final

Dr. Mario (Uncle Albert) vs. Captain Falcon (Tiltawhirl)
Stage: Mushroom Kingdom – Princess Peach’s Castle

The game started off quickly, with mainly A attacks, but started heating up after a bob-omb fell from the sky onto Captain Falcon’s head. It was, however, Captain Falcon who scored the first knock out with his punch. Soon afterwards, though, he misjudged a box full of bob-ombs, and knocked himself out. Captain Falcon was leading by one point but in the last few seconds, Dr Mario grabbed him, and chucked him out of the arena to win the tournament in style:

Dr. Mario (Uncle Albert):
0 KNOCK OUTs, 1 FALL, 0 SELF DESTRUCTs = -1.

Captain Falcon (Tiltawhirl):
1 KNOCK OUT, 1 FALL, 2 SELF DESTRUCTs = -2.

WINNER:
Dr. Mario (Uncle Albert)
