Mario Bros Online Open #2

[Barra]

I can get a few games in no problem. No point if only a few of us can, though.

I'd be for postponement so it doesn't clash with other events.

MB is a game I'd love to learn and it would feel like a cruel injustice only having a handful of games for an event with great potential.

After this tournament I would love to wait a couple months and then have a doubles (co-op) tournament to spark interest there as well.  MAMEHub seems to be working better but of course you will still have problems here or there with someone's internet dropping or someone simply losing connection with the server.  It happens but doubles are also shorter games and you can play multiple games in a day or over the weekend. 

Not only could you have a doubles co-op competition but you could also have a doubles Vs. competition too, meaning P1 & P2 are against each other.  Best of 3 goes on to the next round using a bracket system?  We could also do the same thing with a bracket system playing co-op.  Another thought is to get everybody up to par using MAMEHUB and then draw names and create teams that way.  So many options and varieties with this title.  MB's was just the greatest game ever made IMO and the only people who will realize this are the ones who actually take the time to play it and get good at it.

I totally agree with this.  Online Mario Bros has always appealed to me but I just have never found others to play it with.  I would be up for this

This is what you need to get setup and running and I'm sure someone on here will team up with you.

The time of the tournament was posted a couple months ago and about a week or two before I made posts reminding of the date. I am unfamiliar with what else might be going on but if people would like an extension I will approve anything that Steve would propose.

If people think it better to cancel the event, then I can do that as well. It is ok either way. I set the four days and if people want to play during that time then that is great. Register and I will add you to the streaming page, submit a score and I will keep track of it. Thanks guys.

[Donkey Kong Genius]

We could also do the following: 1) Allow any scores that may be submitted till the end of the original end time, 2) Allow 4 days, Thursday evening 16th through Monday night the 20th. That way we can just do it next week, keep any scores that are done now and use this conversation as the promotional. Let me know if this is acceptable, seems reasonable to me.

[Donkey Kong Genius]

How about this? I received one score submission which I will allow to remain on the scoreboard. Let's push the second segment of this tournament to Thursday April 30th till May 4th. That way we can have it after Eric is done with his DK tournament. Does this sound acceptable to everyone? If so, then registration is still open until the start of the second segment. This will actually give me some time to finish up my Adventures in Lolo project.

I think that sounds fabulous.

Let's give this a little more room, I think it deserves it. 

IMO, and maybe this isn't the best thread to make this point, but I really think that there are simply too many CAG tournaments (both live and online) happening nowadays. Tournaments have been running solid since 2015 began. That's good in some ways, bad in others, but I think the player base is overwhelmed.

I'm down! I want to put up a better score than the one game I played anyways. Cheers.

A reminder that the Mario Bros Tournament will run from Thursday April 30th till May 4th. Thanks.

A reminder that Segment #2 of the Mario Bros Tournament starts tomorrow April 30th, 2015 6:00 PM Pacific time and will run till May 4th, 2015 9:00 PM Pacific time.

[jumpman]

My best crappy score to submit tonight is 109k. I was hoping for 150-160.
