Cutstuff Discussion and Feedback / [Suggestion] Make the forums more obvious

« on: May 20, 2013, 06:46:33 PM »

In the wake of Machinima's new youtube video:

(click to show/hide)

linking to the MM8BDM download page, I propose we make the "forum" button a good deal more prominent. The forum is where all the interaction, support, guides, etc etc are, so why not make it easier and clearer to access?
To reference, this is the page I'm referring to.
http://cutstuff.net/mm8bdm/

Instead of the small "forum" button underneath the download banner, why not make a second flashy banner underneath it with something along the lines of "Forums, Troubleshooting, And Multiplayer" (Because that will totally fit on the banner) so that people know where to go to set up Doomseeker, get custom mods, and interact with other MM8BDM players, among other things? Just my two cents.

Rejected / Jittery Top Spin

« on: April 17, 2013, 06:41:11 PM »

This has been known for a while; probably old, but I don't see any reports about it.

When a player uses top spin, they occasionally appear to "jitter" when viewed by other players or coop spied, as if they were still rotating. Spinning again ends the effect. The player does not notice any of these symptoms. The point at which the top spin is used and/or the length of the jump may be related to the bug occurring. The bug first appeared in V3A.

General Gaming Discussion / Cutstuff Pokemon Region DX: The Not Deadening

« on: March 24, 2013, 02:06:04 AM »

Sweet News Ticker:
I bet you're wondering why there's a new thread. Basically, DonutYoshi quit the entire project over a nerf to wild meowth. Thus, I am making a new thread for the current team (Because Llama, the other manager, can edit my posts anyways   )

Cutstuff Region is a Pokemon fangame running in Pokemon Essentials, a template for RPGMaker XP. The game will feature people from Cutstuff, a plethora of music edited into the BW2 soundfont, Custom Sprites, An actual plotline, Fully functional Pokemon magic with EVs, IVs, all that good stuff, Hemi-Functional Code, all 649 Pokemon obtainable in-game, Pretty Pictures, free drinks, and slightly less fascism than the Soviet Union!

The game's still a WIP (and I use that term heavily), so there's no estimated release date yet.

Holy Crap, we actually have progress!

100 YEARS AFTER THE END OF DND2...
It was a bright and shining day in the world of TERAERAER...
A peace summit between the two (Was it two? Fuck it, I'm retconning DND2.)

120 YEARS AFTER THE END OF DND...
It was a bright and shining day in the world of TERAERAER...
A peace summit between the two nations of Mot UF and Team Evil Guys was beginning.

"So your great grandfather went into my great grandfather's base..."
"Yep."
"Shot each soldier 56 times..."
"57."
"And killed the president?"
"And that's how it went down."
"...We need to stop waging war."
"...That sounds boring. You're boring. I don't like you."
A gunshot rang through the room, killing the leader of Team Evil Guys.
And with that, the peace summit broke down, just as everyone expected.
A huge portion of the [cough] "Nations" were wiped out in one fell swoop.
And that, my dear readers, is the cheap exposition for DND3.

In the wake of some recent controversies, I've decided to host a much more laid-back event. In case you forgot to read the title, that event shall be

A CHESS TOURNAMENT

(click to show/hide)

I'm lying it's Dunces and Dragons 3

So how do I play chess DND3?

(click to show/hide)

DND3 will be less of a shitstorm than DND2 was, while more organized than DND1 was. Players will be separated into two teams, and the teams take turns challenging each other by sending forward champions of the turnholder's choosing.

How do we teams this time around?

(click to show/hide)

Sixteen players will sign up (Or less, if we don't get that number by the 20th). Players will not specify a team, but they can specify whether they want to be a leader. Two leaders will be chosen; they are purely for administration and will not affect gameplay. All tactical input should be sent to them, as they will select the players in each matchup and any other team-based decisions (which basically consists of picking the team's name!) Leaders will pick team players in a modified Dodgeball system: Leader 1 will pick one player, Leader 2 will pick two players, and they will alternate picking one player from then on. Each team leader will select one member to hold the keys. If the keyholder is defeated in combat, all your prisoners are busted out.

Intricacies

(click to show/hide)

1. Each player has 20 HP. They start with 2.0 Power and 0.0 Defense. Fragging someone deals (FraggerPower-FraggedDefense) in damage. Run out of HP and you die a horrible gruesome death.
2. Players can choose to do two things in the middle of a match: Surrender and Armistice. If you surrender, the opponent may choose to capture you or just beat the crap out of you. If captured, you must be broken out of prison by someone finding the enemy team's keys, or traded for diplomatically. If both players offer an Armistice, the battle ends.
3. For undisclosable reasons, I'm going to require players respond within two days if needed. This will not be a deadline to play a match, but instead an activity requirement. Leaders should be on daily.
4. Every player restores 3 HP at the end of the turn, unless something horrible happens to you.
5. Remember, tactics are important! You'll need to discover who's who in order to take out priority targets, coordinate attacks, and other things.

Hey
WHAT'S ALL THAT MEAN

(click to show/hide)

Each player may pick one class. Each team may have no more than one of each class. Each player may pick only TWO of the offered abilities. If a spell has a Cooldown, you may use it at any time out of combat via PM (unless otherwise stated, or is an "escape from combat" ability), If it has no cooldown, it's a passive ability.

Super Special Feature!
Because not everybody is going to be on at once, you can preemptively use abilities, even if you're not online! Say, for example, your ability is important to keep player X out of combat. Because of this, you PM an automatic request to use that ability if he enters combat. If he is engaged, that ability will be used automatically without you needing to request. This applies for all active abilities and all events, such as use Flamestrike if opponent is below 5 HP, use Rebuild Arms on player Y if they have over 10 HP, ETC.

Not the best duelist? Don't worry, I've got something special planned.
Trust me.
I think you'll like it.

Events / Pokemon Tournament Director's Cut HAS BEGUN!

« on: January 06, 2013, 02:08:55 AM »

As the previous Pokemon tournaments aren't going to be completed anytime soon, I figured I'd give it another shot with a more realistic registration goal. There will be four brackets: NU, UU, OU, and Ubers; you can sign up for as many or as few as you want to. They will be using the PO tiers and will be held over Pokemon Online. Signups will last for one week [Tournament scheduled to start Jan 13]; if we reach 8 players in a bracket before this, a direct elimination tournament will begin. Otherwise, if at least four are signed up, a Round-Robin tournament will begin.

You may change up to TWO pokemon's species throughout each bracket. You may change EVs, items, natures, moves, nicknames, whatever else as many times as you please.

SIGNUPS:

Help & Editing / Doomseeker Setup Guide for MM8BDM, Updated for V3A!

« on: December 30, 2012, 06:55:16 PM »

Note: Although there is a guide to setting up Doomseeker, it's very, very outdated. This version is for V3A and covers the transition to Zandronum.

WHAT IS DOOMSEEKER?
Doomseeker is a Doom Port Server Browser, which gives you a list of all available servers for Zandronum, Skulltag, Odamex, Vavoom, and ChocolateDoom. Don't worry, we'll only be using one of them: Zandronum.

WHY DO I WANT DOOMSEEKER?
Doomseeker is amazingly convenient and fast compared to the internal browser.

How to use the internal browser:
Load MM8BDM.
Navigate through the clunky browser.
Get server info.
Download all missing wads manually.
Reload MM8BDM with wads manually.
Navigate to server.
Connect and play.

How to use Doomseeker:
Load Doomseeker.
Select server.
WADseeker automatically downloads all missing wads for you.
Connect and play.

Doomseeker is easily ten times faster, so once you've installed it, you can get right into multiplayer games and frag away!

INSTALLATION GUIDE:

I will update this with pictures and/or video ASAP to make the process more user-friendly.

1. Download and install. http://doomseeker.drdteam.org/
2. In "Query" in the toolbar, uncheck everything but "Zandronum". This makes querying slightly faster and slims down your results.
3. In "Server Filter" (The funnel), enter "megagame" in the field labeled "WADs". This excludes servers hosting Doom, Doom2, HeXen, and other games running on the same engine.
4. In Options > Configure > Engines > Zandronum > Path to executable, navigate to wherever MM8BDM was extracted to and select "zandronum.exe"
5. MAKE SURE that "Masterserver address" is "master.zandronum.com:15300" without quotes.
6. Uncheck "Testing Releases" if it's checked.
7. In the same Configure menu, select "File paths". Select the folder you extracted MM8BDM to and ensure that you put all .pk3 and .wad files in that folder.
8. In the same Configure menu, select Wadseeker > General. Select the folder you extracted MM8BDM to under "Directory where Wadseeker will put wads into". Wadseeker automatically downloads mods for you that you don't have.
9. In Wadseeker > Sites, ensure you have the following URLS in the large white field. If you don't, copy and paste them into the white bar below and click "add". These are the two most-used sites for MM8BDM, though some very obscure mods may use other sites.

Code: [Select]

http://www.best-ever.org/wads
http://wadhost.fathax.com/e107_files/downloads/wadseeker.php?search=%WADNAME%10. Hit "Get servers" (Double red down arrow). A list should show up.
11. Try connecting to any server with the only wad listed being "MM8BDM-v3a.pk3"; one server as of the time of writing this is ":: [BE] New York :: MM8BDM CTF".
12. If you connect, Doomseeker is set up!
13. Try a server with another mod; use ":: [BE] New York :: MM8BDM TLMS" as a test, this server won't be running any private beta test mods.
14. If you complete the downloads from Wadseeker and connect, Wadseeker is also configured correctly and Doomseeker should be working perfectly. Go wild.

A list of dedicated servers to basic game modes can be found here.

FAQ:
No servers are popping up, and there's a message saying I'm banned from the Zandronum Master Server! Why?
Sometimes, the Zandronum Staff needs to ban a range of IPs to keep a known cheater or troll out of the servers. Sometimes, players get caught up in these ranges and are banned before they can even play. If that happens to you, follow these instructions and you'll be unbanned.


Now that you've installed Doomseeker, feel free to use this post for any questions you have about Doomseeker Tech Support!

MM8BDM Discussion / MM8BDM Best-Ever Servers

« on: December 26, 2012, 11:18:20 PM »

A few Best-Ever serves have been put up for your MM8BDM'ing needs. If you have an idea for a server you're certain would get a lot of traffic and enjoyment, feel free to suggest one. If you have any questions, complaints, or death threats, post those too.

These servers are made with new players in mind. Doomseeker is highly recommended, but here's a tutorial if you want to use the internal browser for some reason. Download the mod files highlighted below, put them in your MM8BDM folder, and select them with the "add file" button on the launcher. Once you've got the game loaded, simply A. Type in the console "Connect [ip address of the server below]" without quotes, or B. Locate the server through the internal browser in the Multiplayer -> Browse Servers menu.

If you have the address http://static.best-ever.org/wads/ on your wadseeker list [Requires Doomseeker], all wads will be downloaded automatically when you connect!

Red Signifies Servers that are down.
Blue Signifies Servers with a known issue.
BEST-EVER servers are wiped often, so don't panic if you don't see any or an old IP suddenly doesn't work. If this information is outdated and you would like to connect via IP and obtain your wads here, just post and I'll recheck the info.

Alright OJ, what the flapping f@(& are you trying this time?

(click to show/hide)

Ok, don't kill me, but this whole thing revolves around a ladder system. Each player has his/her/wartortle's own rank which goes up or down depending on whether they win or lose ranked duels. There will be many ways to earn rank, like regularly assigned random duels, matches you call yourself when someone insults your skills/mother/cat, or miniature tournaments. The ladder also gives players a chance to fight people at their own level.

But I'm not a pro duelist...

(click to show/hide)

This was made for duelists of all levels! You'll usually be put up against players closer to you in rank, and you lose much less rank when you lose to someone ranked higher than you. You're also safe from stronger players bullying you for rank.

Nobody duels anymore, you should know that.

(click to show/hide)

This was designed to make duels actually happen for those who enjoy them. Every 3rd day, the moon crashes into termina players who are subscribed to "tri-daily duels" will receive an opponent for a ranked duel. You can freely resubscribe and unsubscribe to these matches, but not playing a match already assigned will have consequences (exceptions can be made for causes beyond player control). In addition, players can call each other out for ranked duels at any time. Tri-Daily duels will be one match with a RANDOMLY picked map, Call-out duels will be either best 2 out of 3 with typical tournament picks (one player picks his map, another player picks his map, and the final map is agreed upon) or the same as tri-daily matches, as agreed by the players. Fraglimits may either be 5 or 10, as agreed. No timelimits.

Random maps? Seriously?

(click to show/hide)

The following maps may be vetoed by either player for another random map:
MM5WAV
MM5GYR
MM5CRY
MM7SPR
MM7BUR
MM7DW4
All custom maps unless otherwise stated

So I always have to be ready to duel? Sounds annoying.

(click to show/hide)

That's why we pulled this solution out of nowhere in the last 10 minutes: You may choose to deny all incoming challenges, but if you issue a challenge, you must accept the first two challenges issued in the next 48 hours.
______________________
For required matches (the first two challenges in the 48 hours following a challenge you proposed): You have 24 hours to begin playing a challenge (if the challenged is able to play later on but the challenger is unavailable later in the 24 hours, he withdraws the challenge. A challenge withdrawl has no penalty to either party, but the challenger must still accept his minimum 2 challenges for the next 48 hours.) If you do not, you are not permitted to participate in the next tri-daily duel nor issue challenges for the tri-daily duel period. However, you may still finish the current period's tri-daily duel. If a Tri-daily duel is not completed, if one player is clearly at fault, they will receive the same punishment, but may receive stricter punishment for repeat offenses. Mutual Confirmation, Screenshot Confirmation, or Board Member confirmation will all be accepted.

Awesome, so I can beat on newbies?

(click to show/hide)

...Not quite. You can't challenge players with less than 60% of your rank, and rank increase diminishes for challenges issued to players with less than 90% of your rank. You may not challenge a single player twice in 48 hours. In addition, Tri-Daily duels give a 5% incoming rank bonus for the winner that call-out duels do not get.

But what if I REALLY want to beat someone's face off?

(click to show/hide)

If two players have at least 90% of each other's rank, have challenged each other at least once each, and have both won at least one match against each other, they may mutually agree to a grudge match for 1.75x the rank change. The difference in rank is also ignored, so both players risk the same amount of relative rank. Come at me.

EDIT: Players may also decide beforehand to halve rank changes for a "light duel".

So... it's just a bunch of duels? Big whoop.

(click to show/hide)

Well, I tried to break up the monotony by giving you guys what you've always loathedwanted: Team Tournaments! In addition to random tournaments to give rank and stir things up, players can join 2v2, 3v3, and 5v5 teams. These teams carry their own rank and may participate in team tournaments and may call out other teams for ranked matches. These tournaments can range from anything to DM, TLMS, CTF, Possession, to Classes, so bring frinds who are ready for anything! Please note, however, that a team's rank will be reset if they ever have less than 51% of their original members. 5v5 teams will be permitted to play with only 4 of their members attending a match. You may only sign up for ONE team in each player count bracket, and these teams will carry over between tournaments.

WADs allowed:

(click to show/hide)

2mandmitemremoval.pk3 must be used for 2 man DM, as duel mode is unstable. If you can duel without crashing on V2C, be my guest. Zandronum is also permitted, as we have a few Best Ever servers up.
The most up-to-date AMP, CSCM, SHARP, and IX packs may be used for duels, but the map must be mutually agreed upon.
TBG CTF may also be used in CTF.
Classes mods may be used at specified times, typically in team tournaments, but classes have been tiered for balance in team games.
Other mods may also make appearances!

Yeah, whatever how do I sign up

MM8BDM Discussion / SAVE SR50

« on: August 09, 2012, 11:57:47 PM »

PEOPLE OF CUTSTUFF, WE REQUIRE ASSISTANCE IN THIS DARK HOUR.

SR50 is apparently under scrutiny or is going to be from the MM8 team (details not explicitly clear at this time), and may be removed by outright automatically kicking players employing it! SR50 is a strategy involving custom aliases bound to your movement keys allowing you to move moderately faster (slightly less than 10%) at the brutal cost of not being able to turn horizontally at all (this means no fighting back) and requiring extra input whenever you want to use this extra speed. This tactic can be emulated by straferunning and turning precisely, but the alias squeezes out the very little bit of extra efficiency.

SR50 has been in Doom and Skulltag since their creations, and there was even a thread on the ST forums explaining SR50 in depth that was never locked or deleted. As such, it's moderately safe to say it was left in intentionally by the ST staff to better emulate Doom.

After a lengthy discussion, we've decided to see what the public thinks of this strategy and whether or not it should be removed.

Also, I don't even use it and people like Roc and I support its usage.

SUDDENLY, DUNCES AND DRAGONS 2


-Created by Arcterra


So what did you do this time?

(click to show/hide)

This version plays more like a traditional tabletop RPG, making the tournament much more strategy-based. Basically, there are several ways to come out on top in an open world to explore. Make friends, slap everyone around, or just scavenge for a cheap victory. All up to you!

This is an FPS game, moran

(click to show/hide)

I noticed. Every day at 5 PM EST (or earlier if you guys PM me harder), I will gather up all given commands for the day, play them out, and return the results. If you come across another player or point of interest, that's when it's up to you! Each player starts with 100 HP- By default, you lose 5 HP when fragged. Each player has Strength and Toughness (think MTG), starting at 5/0. Strength, on the left, denotes damage you do when you frag an enemy; Toughness, on the right, reduces damage taken. Every time you frag a player, you gain 5 EXP. Level ups occur at 100 exp, 120 exp, 140 exp, so on. Every level will net you +1/+1 and +10 hp. There is also a simple inventory system for equipment, gold, potions, and such.

Go on.

(click to show/hide)

These are some of the basic commands per turn:
SEARCH: Allows you to move two spaces per turn, quickly searching for anything around you.
DEEP SEARCH: Searches the space you are on and a space adjacent to you more thoroughly, moving to that space. This is the only way to find most important things!
PURSUE: Attacks anyone with equal speed that you land on, dealing (Level *2.5, rounded) damage. This is a more in-depth command for chasing down people running away.
REST: Regain 10 HP. Hidden unless deep searched.
RETREAT: When in battle, you can choose to run away. Your chances of escape are Half of your level over the enemy's level. (EG. 1/2 chance for anyone of the same level) If you fail to escape, you take a frag.

So how do we actually win?

(click to show/hide)

DIPLOMATIC:
All characters must vote for the same player as undisputed highlord.

DESTRUCTIVE:
Kill everyone else. Simple as that.

DRAGONBALLS:
Gather all dragonballs on a single space and defend them for ten turns.

ALIGNMENT:
Lawful Characters must build up 3/5 of the cities by giving gold and defending it.
Chaotic Characters must destroy them.
Villages start at 200 HP and gain/lose 10 per turn a player occupies it if they are lawful or chaotic, respectively. They can also fund reconstruction or instill corruption by putting gold into the village, increasing/decreasing it by another 10 per turn, using one gold per hit point. At 0 HP, the village is destroyed and all chaotic players occupying the ruins lose 1 less HP per frag received. At 400 HP, the village becomes a city and all lawful players occupying the city lose 1 less HP per frag received. Once completed, a ruin or city cannot be taken back by the opposing faction.

Good and Evil characters must destroy each other. If the number of neutrals is equal to or greater than the number of evil or good characters, you do not gain victory until the neutral count is... reduced.

Neutrals must stop other alignment victories from ever occurring.

What if everyone will pile up on me?

Remember that your class can be kept secret as long as you want! Once you use it, other people can take note of it themselves.

TURN SYNTAX:

(click to show/hide)

You will typically be given a set of commands when something interesting happens. Every turn, you will choose your basic action (search, deep search, attack, etc). If something minor comes up in your first space explored, you will be notified; if it's something major, your turn may be split up. Don't assume the turn is over until I post that it is in the news ticker!

Turns either last one day, or 3 days maximum if a fight occurs. Try to do your matches as soon as possible, because slowing down the tourney makes me a sad wailmer.

What is speed?
Every player gains 1 speed when they level up, and the dragoon starts with one extra point. Higher speed means you take your turn before any other player!

Tips:

(click to show/hide)

There are three Super Item Sets: Triforce Pieces, Power Stones, and Dragon Balls. All have important uses, but those are to be discovered! (except for dragon balls, you already know what those do)

Rumors abound of shrines and tombs hidden throughout the world... maybe you can exploit them somehow.
There are five biomes- find out the secrets of each!
You can rent scuba gear or a boat if you really feel like crossing water or searching the seas.
There's a Colosseum in the middle of nowhere if you feel like finding a fight.
You die at -5 HP; at 0, you simply fall unconscious for 3 turns. This way, you can determine whether or not to kill someone after defeating them.
Keep your ears open! Certain actions make noise that can tip you off to nearby enemies.
If you don't want me to spam you with youtube music tracks, just say so in your signup.
You can team up with whoever you feel like! If an evil guy, a neutral guy, and a good guy all meet up, you can play a deathmatch or a 2v1 battle, depending on negotiations...
Frags will always deal at least 3 damage.
You can only hold 5 items at a time, not counting mage staves or bounty hunter items. Equipped items do not count towards this.
When you hit 10 HP, you enter desperation mode, in which you take a random amount of damage from 1-5, but you don't know how much you take or how much health you have left! Use it for a final stand.

If someone feels like being inactive and you find them, you can carry around their unconscious body if you really feel like picking a fight with them.

...But after 10 turns, they forget how to breathe.

Ok... but if there are achievements, I will shank you.

Better get the knife out.

MM8BDM Discussion / Reinventing the "League": Yet another tournament (Started)

« on: February 15, 2012, 10:00:56 PM »

(Art donated by Arcterra)

They said it couldn't be done. Cutstuff is full of players who would end a tourney with lack of participation. But I ask, why not create a tournament that does not rely on participation? And thus, I created this:


Reinventing the League.

Ok seriously, what's your idea this time?

(click to show/hide)

I've seen plenty of "tree bracket" tournaments die because one or two players refuse to do a match. The fight gets pushed off and pushed off, and it is forgotten along with the rest of the tournament. This tournament won't be hurt at all if a challenger doesn't show up. How is this possible?

Think Pokemon League.

That's ridiculous. You're ridiculous. Tell me more.

(click to show/hide)

Two people have already been selected as a leader of a "not gym", (Because I'm original) who will lead up to three notleaders to stop challengers from obtaining victory. Challengers simply need to defeat all three notgyms to become the champion.

Dood, what if I'm not on often?

(click to show/hide)

Just because someone becomes champion, doesn't mean you can't take the position from them. The champ has five days to respond to challenges from others who have beaten all three notgyms. If you lose your spot as champion, you need to beat all the leaders again- however, you can skip the notleaders. Plus, anyone who loses a notgym battle must wait 24 hours before re-challenging the notgym members.

But what if THEY'RE not on often?

(click to show/hide)

A notleader has three days to respond to a challenge (Cutmail, Steam, Skype, In-server, however you can reach them); a leader has five. A leader is encouraged to pick up substitutes in case of noshows or a notleader chooses to challenge instead.

I still suck at duel, What do?

MM8BDM Discussion / Buddy System 2: Started

« on: December 13, 2011, 11:25:43 PM »

Before you insult and or berate me, let's do some science

The Duel league needs 12 more players to do a grand total of 496 matches, which is going to take a long time. Plus Dunces and dragons is over anyways lol

And with that, along with my impatience, Oh God it's The Buddy System Redux

From the egotistical prick man who brought you Brosession, Dunces and Dragons, and The "Buddy" System...

"Best tourney evar" -Kenkoru
"I actually get to play matches" -Zytix
"You did the motherland proud"-Turboperson
"...wasn't complete dildos..."-Bluebrawl
"I'm going to go cry in the corner now"-Rebootraeg
"Remind me to never join another tourney ever again" -Nostalgia
"Fuck you"-SmashbroplusB


Ok, that title scares me. What's the catch?

Ever want to have a good old team tourney but without the organizational hassle? That's why I spawned this monstrosity. You can bring whoever you want, whenever you want. You can bring a friend to any match and keep him as long as the matches permit! Example: Player 1 is against Player 2. They both agree to bring a friend. Player 1 brings Player 3 and wins. He has no obligation to keep him for his next match, but for his next match, his opponent, Player 5, has to agree to have friends.

Not duel? Explain.

Want to get competitive, but hate duel? Feel free to choose any game mode under the sun. From Duel to 10v10 classes possession, it's all fair play.

So how's it set up?

(click to show/hide)

Direct elimination, tree style.

Oj, make the Grab Bag not suck:

(click to show/hide)

Granted. The grab bag no longer exists. Have fun rallying up your friends  

Miscellany:

(click to show/hide)

The experimental frankenversion is encouraged among crashy players.
If you want teammates, YOU WILL GET A SET DATE. If anyone's missing by that date, you get grab bag players (eg nobody)
Teams do not have to be equal.
You don't need to be in (the no longer existant) Grab Bag to be picked as a teammate. They are (were) mainly there as backup in case of a no-show. Unless, of course, the contestants feel ballsy and want random teammates.

We're in the recruitment phase. I'm assuming saying that instead of "started" will deflate the drama.

We're going for 16 elimination players. Simple as that this time.

People:

(click to show/hide)

1. me
2. Awbawlisk (Crystal eye, Magic card)
3. Rebootraeg (PostPsychedelicDreamfunk, other things)
4. not Sora
5. Turboperson
6. RM Dood
7. Bluebrawl
8. Red
9. Labadahorde
10. TailsMK4
11. Travis (Probation)
12. Kenkoru
13. omegazerox12
14. Cvideo (Kirby, playa)
15. Super Raveman
16. Destroyer1515

BEFORE YOU BEGIN:
A few rules as to who you can buddy with.
Like last time, you can buddy up your match with someone on the other side of the bracket. For example:

Orange Juice VS OZX could become Orange Juice and Awbawlisk vs OZX and Bluebrawl, in which all 4 contestants are fighting to stay in. It could also become Orange Juice and Awbawlisk vs OZX and Cvideo, in which it would only count for Orange Juice and OZX. However, it could not become Orange Juice and Sora vs OZX and Super Raveman. Extra players outside the tourney can be added at any time.

ONE MORE THING: Since the feedback for randomly selected game modes was positive, you can play the selected mode for a bonus. When you win on this mode, report back and a bonus will be selected. Randomly. Classes implies your choice of KY or YD. Instagib/buckshot are up to you.

OJ VS OZX: TDM
SORA VS RAVEMAN: CLASSES TDM
REBOOT VS TURBO: POSSESSION
LLAMAHOMBRE VS KENKORU: CLASSES TDM
AWBAWLISK VS BLUEBRAWL: TDM
TAILSMK4 VS RM DOOD: TDM
RED VS DESTROYER1515: TDM (goddamnit rng stop picking 1)
TRAVIS VS CVIDEO: TDM (whywhywhywhy)
