Yeah, when I fought against thrawn/demo la, I found a great counter to repeated loni attacks. As a result, I won in round 5. Woohoo.

Gotta love double-named email addresses. 🙂

I would also like to join...my nick is the same as forum one

I'm in. Keep in mind that, like Mini-T, one can sustain Bombastic and the other pops for the entirety of a round. Mini-T's actually quite weak considering that one (namely, I) could throw thousands of Zaps during a round, yielding the same effect.

Nope. :frown:

That was one funny match. I must have sent some 10 flower attacks at you. I just wanted to see your reaction to it. Also, all those flower attacks lags up the system quite badly.

Oh, now you're blaming lag? 😉

Actually, I consider that to be the single best game I've played; it went into round 5, and was a VERY close game. Must rematch at some point... 🙂

Getting into this tournamnet ends TOMARROW, and the tournamnet begins too. It's almost time for me to tell everyone who fights who, etc.

Well, its that day... Pop-pop tournament time! Since I don't have whos-fighting-who ready at the moment, I'll go do that now. I should be done in a few minutes.

------------------

Alrighty! Search for the proper person, set up a time for them if you must.

Jalai vs Ragashingo
Mazca vs Jackal
Regulus vs Corun (STHENES)
EVula vs anklebiter
Brutalnisse vs PRPop-Rocks
Antigonus vs Stormraven
spamguy vs PR Nezda
Jeeze vs bosk
thrawn (la) vs Hamster
Desert-Rat vs Booksley

Zealous Cloud will, sadly, miss the first round. 21 participants and all.

If you don't like having to face who you do, don't blame me, I didn't pick, it was (semi)random, and it will be selecting next round.

I lost. Can you believe it? That has to be my worst performance in a game ever.

------------------

I have to withdraw (vacation for 3 weeks), so good luck to all, and may the best pop win.
Also give the decision of my match to Antigonus.

no thanks....I'd get creamed. I'm best at Beginner. I just started playing today.

------------------
Created in the Future by **** -Knight in his old age. I was sent to the future to undo the justice Kirby had preformed apon Popstar. I then found a Chao. I named it champ. He acompanied me on my quest. He then had a son named Champ Jr. so the Saga continues.

Stormraven is extremely gracious to forfeit this first round of the tournament to myself. From what I've seen, he's quite the excellent player. To speak to fairness, just two days ago, I did beat him several times in casual matches. So... me coming out on top is not unrealistic.

Also, on an unrelated note, I'd like to appologize to everyone who has had the misfortune to play me the last five days or so. My keyboard had an unpleasant encounter with a full glass of coca-cola. The fizzy carmel colored confection made the previously pristine keyboard pretty much unusable. The only thing I could type with any accuracy was the word 'yup' and hit the enter key. Banging on the keyboard with impassioned fury didn't help much... It was most frustrating make people think of me as rude when I had no way of assauging their fears. Thankfully, with a two button mouse, I could play pop-pop as devestatingly brilliant as usual.

I'm currently using a PC (of all the horrors) to post this message but should have my mac up and running in short order. I look forward to whomever I match up with in Round 2. (note to Thok... if you'd like me to play Zealous Cloud since he hadn't had a partner in round 1, I'd be completely open to that).

Cheers,
Antigonus

I just beat Jackal, 3-0. Is this tournament going anywhere?

I played valiantly, but I lost..... Mazca advances in the tournament.
