Summer MK2 Tournament (SEMIFINALS UNDERWAY)

Tourney timelength extended to 8/29 (which is what I meant it to be originally) to accomodate ninjalord/konqrr. Second round must be done by Tuesday night and Semifinal matches should be completed by Thursday, 8/26 @ 11:59pm EST.

Bracket is up to date. Konqrr/ninjalord have been given an extension till Tuesday night. The winner of that match will be expected to play Scheiss by the end of Thursday night.

(championship match will run through the end of Sunday if necessary.)

DCI you should´nt extend the tourney period just because players cant agree to spend 20 minutes to play in the given time. You should disqualify them for not playing by the rules...

No offense to the players, but it cant be that hard to play 13 fights in a week.

Konqqr has been ill. Thats a reasonable excuse I reckon for not being able to play and being allowed a bit more time.

Yes, given the extenuating circumstance, I'm willing to make an exception. If, however, the match is not played by Tuesday night, I will DQ both players.

In that unlikely situation, Scheiss would play against the highest scoring losing player from round 2. Since both btbb99 and Bo_DK had 6 wins a piece, scheiss would get to pick who he plays. Essentially, he would have the power to give $10 to whoever he chooses. Start sucking up now you two, lol.

nice to no i have a chance again lol, if it is a choice for scheiss to pick me or bo_dk i hope he chooses the option of letting us play 13 matches to see who advances, since i think that's the most fair way to do it.

Just played X820 via p2p with wonderful lag. Well, in similar fashion, I found myself down 5-2. Only this time...it was not meant to be.

Final score:
9-4 X820

I stopped recording once you clinched because my fiancé was saying a lot of stuff in the background and I didn't want it to get on tape, lol.

Yeah, that whole time I was doing that song and dance in the final round I was thinking to myself "how the hell has he not finished me off yet?" If I would have pulled that one out, you probably would have finished me in the next match, though.

It was ridiculous because the next match (unrecorded) was, again, jax vs sub-zero. I was getting so sick of that matchup, lol

let's get these matches done konqrr. the vultures are circling us. lol.
You PM'd me 7pm Eastern Time. Sounds good. That's 5pm for me.

If anything happens (I have 3 kids who started school today, so yeah...lol) then I should be the only one eliminated and not ninjalord. I WILL be there though. I don't have Googletalk, so check your PM or I'll look in West Wonderland for you.

Thanks. I love running these things because it gives me a chance to work on my multimedia skills and I like organizing this stuff. Yes, thanks indeed to IceyTruth. This tournament would not have been possible without your generous donation.

It looks like I may have to keep the deathwatch out for konqrr/ninjalord. I hope it doesn't come to that.

Thanks to DCi for running it all, its been really good fun so far. Really enjoyed watching the matches that have been posted.

I'm more than happy to donate towards the MK community. I'm always impressed when I see posts of some of the other guys on this forum turning up at tournies, promoting MK and playing it. The UK just doesn't have the same drive for this game, so this is me attempting to give something back and promote the classicMK community.
