Welcome to Test Your Salt 3!

Welcome back fellow competitors, so far this series has been going fairly well with great matches stacked with excellent players!
For those of you who don't know what TYS is it's an Online tournament created for Mortal Kombat X, my online series has been running waay back since 2013 for Injustice Gods among us, they're designed to bring a friendly but competitive atmosphere to your online experience for those who cannot join in on weekly offline matches or just crave something more competitive online.

Date/Time

To avoid EVO but keep it on the weekend I rescheduled for a time very soon, however if enough people don't sign up in time we can always go for the weekend after EVO.

July 11th
8PM BST (UK time)

Sign up

http://challonge.com/tournaments/signup/AONFJ1fG6T
When you sign up make sure to tell me your Gamertag and region in this thread so I can appropriately seed you based on connectivity and so players can make Challonge names with gamertags.

Players Signed up


Challonge Name --------- Gamertag
GiM_ZigZag ------- DT ZigZagGamer​

Rules/Info

Please join the room named "TYS3" when the tournament begins, the room will be created 15-10 minutes prior to the start of the tournament if anyone would like to join ahead of time however I usually have alot to organise right at the beginning of the tournament so please be patient.

Please be patient!
Some things take a little while to sort out so please be patient and understand these can sometimes be stressful to organise.

Players who make it to Top 8 will have their matches record from there onward, please do not proceed with matches on your own once you enter Top 8 or your match will not be counted and will be replayed.

Double elimination tournament.
FT2/Best of 3.
Grand Finals FT3/Best of 5, If you make it to GF through losers you must reset the bracket.

Stage select = Random as hell, you can choose any stage you like or just hit random this doesn't effect anyone.

Winners lock.
Players must replay the same character & variation they played previously upon winning a round, losers may alternate between Variations or characters.

Upon tournament start you will have 30 minutes to show up before you are DQ'd, as the tournament progresses you will only have 10 minutes between matches to show up before you are DQ'd.
If you are going to be late and you know it please inform me so that I can hold the match back as long as possible.

If players disconnect mid match during a game please replay the match as if it did not happen unless you DC during the "Finish him" screen of course.

There is a check in requirement to play, Make sure to Check in before 8PM BST, the check in starts 6 hours prior to the tournament DON'T FORGET!

Players will be expected to report their own scores on Challonge, if both players are unable just use the room chat to tell me the score and i'll enter it for you.

If there are any disputes over matches please go to your match history and record your matches for evidence, DO NOT use Game DVR during matches as this can create input lagg, anyone who presents me with footage that isn't from the match replays will be DQ'd no matter what.

Test Your Salt 2 Top 8 Video COMING SOON!


These videos take a while to edit, expect it to arrive in a couple of days.

So this not happening?
Sorry I should have given you guys a heads up but if no more than 8 people sign up it's really not worth it, I had gone out drinking knowing at the time (an hour before tournament start) there was no hope, i'll work on TYS2 Top 8 and retry the tournament in upcoming weeks.

I'll try to edit some tonight, they got me working later on this evening though but I could probably spare some time to it, at least get all the files moved over.

Yeah Test your might 2 footage is all kinds of fucked up, that was a pretty big mess and I can't work with this, we have a missing game, tonnes of sound de-synced and it's all over the place in terms of order so i'm dropping it sorry, this video will just be a huge mess i'm afraid.
