The unstoppable Clef!
The only way to beat him is to not play him!!!
(but then he'll bypass you)

How's "OCR Emulation League" sound?
The mods would put the kbosh on that immediately, since they don't want the image that they condone illegal emulators. I think OCR Gaming League would be a better bet than that.
Still thinking of an idea...

Are we going to use SNES exclusively? I have some Genesis and NES games that I'd love to get played later on, as wall as there are plenty others I'm sure that you guys would like to play.

ed;213892']I don't know' date=' and frankly, I don't care. All I know is I had this in the planning, and was just working the kinks out so, not only would it work for me, but I could answer any questions that came up, so I had some experience.
Now, not only did I have it stolen from me, but I can say I'm a little offended that there are people on the first forum that knew I had it planned, that went ahead and joined this anyway.[/quote']
Sorry, Pi. You need to seize the opportunity when you get the chance.
Mew: Not cool, though. A red flag came up in my head when this thread was made because of the above reason (among others whenever a contest is created on OCR because I've been in charge of more of this kind of stuff than anyone else). It's your call now, but there's always a certain level of PR involved with running a competition.

Fire royally fucked me over after about the 40th move of each game.

We should have an IRC channel so we can all meet up and discuss...things. Like #ocrsnes or something.
And matchmaking maybe? (sorry to draw parallels to the OCRCL, but I will), in the chess league I just open an AIM chat and invite every player who is online.

BUMP.
C'mon guys, I'm feeling very insecure about the future of the league!

It's against OCR rules to post a link to the rom - at least I believe it is.
The mods can say some TOS bullshit and ban you if you do, although I don't think they would, I would just safely say DON'T POST IT, and we'll trade same copies and make sure that everyone has the same copy when they actually play against eachother.
This means we have like ten players, right? Mewtation, expect an IM from me very very soon about tournament format
I'll try and get Bahamut to join.

You should focus your questions to this thread.

OCRemix is full of Cave Story lovers, including myself. There's even been a remix project for the game's music.
Might as well keep this thread though, as there are a lot of noobs that haven't yet discovered this.

OLD.
Username changes have been banned all year.

i live in northern urban sprawl, and go to school in southern urban sprawl
I live in southwestern suburban sprawl, and go to school in central downtown-like hub of suburban sprawl.

Put me in, although I'd suggest a shorter timeframe for each round (1-2 weeks).
-
Loss, Win vs. Grayfox9996 - he got me with a sly little move in Game 1 after I got disconnected, but I had him with sheer material advantage in Game 2.
LongeBane's report on Bahamut has been removed - apparently they tried playing last week.
Snerrak has left the active roster, which, in tandem with the above, has little effect.
-
*bump* wtf i couldnt even find this thread. ooo, i thought i reported nemo for game 2,or maybe not. hmm nvm. gl for week 2.
I dropped your report, since there was ample opportunity to play Nemo, I only gave jessica a point as restitution for not playing one game like you did. I'm very stingy with reports - you're not going to get many report points AT ALL.

Week 10 schedules are now posted.
Week 9 business:
KeeganTheFox won the week with 16 points, also the maximum score. This is like the fifth time Keegan has won a week since the league format, and the second time he's gone 100%.
Nemitor_Atimen was charged one point to ~Jessica~ for failure to play a reported match while playing his other opponent. Three points could have been charged but were dropped because Nemo was online enough to answer to a match request, and because the second game between Nemo and Salaxzar went unplayed. A final report point through salaxzar was not charged because of the one game that was actually played.
Bahamut was charged one point to John DerriLLL and LongeBane each for failure to play reported matches. Four points could have been charged but were dropped because Bahamut appeared online and responsive, and JD and Clef could have simply played eachother.
Rainman DX returned in time to play Week 9 games and did so under my supervision. He remains on the active schedule.
Arek The Absolute was bypassed by dPaladin 2-0 Fionn, and was dropped from the active schedule.
Margoute was dropped from the active schedule.
jeff_loves_chess_too_much and ResEvil07 were added to the active schedule.

I think that we'll have the tri-series idea come into play in a couple weeks (probably replacing week 12 or 13).
I'd love to see team-play in action, mainly to see if it would actually work as the normal way of doing things in the OCRCL - a while back I had the idea to split the league up into 4-6 teams of 4-6 players each, and while the idea really didn't fly with a lot of people, I thought it would be a very interesting way of developing the league and might encourage more participation. I'm a team-sports kinda guy first and think that, with team play, everyone gets a legitimate chance at winning a tournament.
And not by pity or butt-kissing (thanks for the hoilday tournament title, everyone
) -
Reporting ended at midnight - I've only gotten one report in since then (longebane on Bahamut) and I think Longebane tried to report him earlier.
Reporting phases will always end Saturday 11:59 pm Pacific Time, 24 hours before the end of the playing week.

Hey you guys...
I've made several changes, notably taking margo and rainman off of the active schedule. Loning said he wanted off as well.
Unfortunately, when I made the schedule, I made two circles - one of 14 players, and one of 6. This is the circle of 6 that is now only 3.
Snerrak, Setz, and Falchion have a round-robin with eachother now, and these three guys actually appear on AIM so there's a chance.
Week 9 ends tomorrow, everyone.
ALSO - with the end of unmod (the little-known but totally true origin of the OCRCL) the forum is swamped. Trust me, we'll get more exposure, but the thread needs to get bumped often - if you don't see it on page 1 please bump it...I assume that unmodders are going to exploit the time zones and go nuts tonight.....and all get banned in the morning.
-
I assume it'll be concentrated porn in dedicated threads, anti-mod and ant-judge sentiment, and other foul craziness.
In otherwords, SomeMod.
At least that's what I'd like.

If you do add me to the bracket my AIM is surfer_otaku.
I don't want to add you if you don't actually go on AIM. We've had enough problems in the past with ghost players who disappear after signing up.
Anyways, you've been added, and you can play halfmatches immediately. You will be added to the active schedule on Monday morning.

He won't be here until tomorrow or later.bahamut im reporting you come on line and playBypass? You'd play Clef.

OverClocked ReMix Tetris Attack tournament
in Competitions
Posted
I've been talking on the IRC channel about tournament format and some rules and other things which I'm not going to apologize for because I'm knowledgable on these sorts of things. I'd just like to see a show of support or disdain for the following:
1) NON-POOL SCHEDULE (recommended)
First 2 weeks: All players are assigned four opponents to play. Some scoring system is assigned.
Last 2 weeks: The top 35% (rounded-up) of first-round finishers are assigned to a championship bracket (seeded with byes). Everyone else goes to a consolation bracket (seeded with byes).
Estimated maximum number of matches: 6-7
2) POOL-BRACKET FORMAT
First 2 weeks: Each player is drawn into some number of pools (probably 4).
Second 2 weeks: Each pool's top two finishers play in an eight-team bracket.
*NOTE* I don't like this one - it's not particularly complete or even.
Estimated maximum number of matches: 6-8
3) POOL-POOL-SEMIS-FINALS FORMAT
First 10 days: Each player is drawn into some number of pools (4, 5, or 6)
Second 10 days: Each pools top two finishers play in one of two pools.
Final 8 days: Each second-round pool's top two finishers play semi-finals and finals.
Estimated maximum number of matches: 8-10
So these would be significantly more matches than a simple single elimination bracket. I particularly like the non-pool option (1) because everyone plays the same number of first round games and the bracket is skewed in favor of higher finishers. And there are fewer matches.
I don't think most people can fit in 8 to 10 games in a month without just brooding at their computers. Even 2 a week might be a little tough for some people (shouldn't be though). But I'd really like to throw my weight behind idea (1).
