    Unfortunately, our automated tournament system does not allow for more than 8 players in a double elimination tournament, and we have 9. Thus, a bit of intelligence is required to fix this problem. Since all the other competitors have difficulty just remembering to breathe, I have put my towering intellect to work on this problem and come up with the following solution. An off-site bracket system has been used to generate the starting bracket, which is as follows:


    The bracket was generated randomly, and the match-up of phonicsmonkey v Andres is because fate hates them. It has nothing to do with the fact that phonicsmonkey himself caused this problem by signing up late, and that I hate Andres and wish him great pain and suffering.

    Once the following matches have been played, we will input the results into the Tanuki Tournament Bracket on the forum utility and conduct the rest of the tournament in the automated bracket itself:
    A) phonicsmonkey v Andres
    D) issaikhaan v Monk
    Loser of A v Loser of D

    You may now all worship me for fixing yet another problem caused by the Org Staff, without any help whatsoever. Honestly, I think they would probably drown in their own spittal within a week if I wasn't here.

    Kagemusha attempts to psych himself up before his match against GH. Of course, we all know that it's all for nothing.

    It's pronounced "the rotten". He eats too much mexican food.

    Where's that phonicsmonkey? Where is he? Come over here so that I can destroy you!

    I have played 2 (TWO) MP games already and so I can call myself a veteran. I lost those two games on purpose! Now, I'm here for some SERIOUZZZ BUSINEZZZZZ.

    GH and his boys are too busy to prepare for the coming annihilation and utter whooping they are surely going to receive. Poor lads!

    Hmm... it does appear as though the only appropriate thing to do is make everyone else forfeit and declare myself the winner.

    Multiple claims to the title...such a dilemma. Hey, why don't we hold a tournament to decide the winner?
