"Super Smash Bros. Melee - The Tournament"

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!

Here are the fixtures for the forthcoming quarterfinal matches:

Young Link (BIGMAN) vs. Link (Blazing Anton)
Yoshi (Na†ßu©) vs. Falco – White (Foreman)
Falco – Ice Blue (Boss Pac-Man) vs. Dr. Mario (Uncle Albert)
Pikachu (**Kerrang!**) vs. Captain Falcon (Tiltawhirl)

Well that's the end of the Group stages (and of annoyingly hard to read Group tables). Well done to those who got through, and unlucky to those who didn't. Just to recap then:

The Quarterfinalists:

BIGMAN (Young Link)
Na†ßu© (Yoshi)
Boss Pac-Man (Falco - Ice Blue)
**Kerrang!** (Pikachu)
Foreman (Falco - White)
Blazing Anton (Link)
Tiltawhirl (Captain Falcon)
Uncle Albert (Dr. Mario)

Check back tomorrow for the quarterfinals!
