Young Navigator Posted May 3, 2013 Posted May 3, 2013 (edited) Week 3 of the Ranbat Reboot is upon us! We had a Labrys go all the way through winners, man...WINNERS. You may be asking yourself: "What the heck is this?" It's simple! This Ranking Battle (the term of which ranbat originates,) is a way to keep competitive outside of the tournament scene, while interacting with different kinds of people! These ranking battles will occur weekly! But there will be a slight difference as to how this one is run. The ranbat season ends once someone amasses 50 POINTS. Once that occurs, the top 4 scoring players will meet in a Single Elimination, 3/5 Tournament to determine the overall champion of the season. Be on your A-game, because the season can end either very quickly, or take quite some time. THE BASICS: Date: 5/9/2013 (Thursday) Time: 10:00 PM EST Sign-Up: Challonge (register here) Brackets: Here Stream: Radio Under The Influence Television Player limit: None. Format: Double Elimination, 2/3 Rounds. Grand Finals will be 3/5 rounds Character lock: Winner's character is locked, Loser can switch in between rounds NOTE: When you register on Challonge, please post here as well, so I have a list of who is available. Format: Name: Dustloop Name (XBL Gamertag in Parentheses) Location: Character: Distribution of Points: 1st = 15 2nd = 8 3rd = 4 4th = 2 Participation = 1 e.g: 1st place gets 16 points (15 for winning & 1 for participation,) and so on and so forth. Who can enter: Anyone...with a caveat (Yes...it is region based. If you are in the Eastern United States (basically wherever the NBA Eastern Conference teams are hosted, so sorry New Orleans,) you'll be fine. West Coast players, if you wish yo enter, please message me FIRST. We can then do a test to see if you can maintain a 2 bar connection.) Ranking Updates: (Point Totals in Parentheses) 1) TectalEastside (25) 2) Zealous5000 (16) 3) Grant_chi (10) 4) Pssych (7) 5) Spring_Raid (5) 6) Domo (4) 7) ciddypoo (4) 8) Omex (2) 9) Rybuster (2) 10) Young Navigator (2) 11) DigiOps (1) 12) Tsukahara (1) 13) VRRaiden (1) 14) JacopeX (1) 15) SinFenix (1) 16) SummonedSwords (0) FAQs What if I cannot participate at a particular ranbat? It's no big deal. We all have lives that we must live, it is the essence of human existence. Register at your leisure.How often is the Ranbat Reboot going to take place? Weekly, on Thursday Nights.When do weekly registrations close? Thursday Nights at 9:45pm EST.Will there be a way for us to communicate during the ranbat? Absolutely! Here's the instructions!1: Go to http://mibbit.com/ 2: Scroll to the bottom. Click the yellow button marked "Still interested? Chat now" 3: Connect should be to "Mibbit [webirc]" (It is the default option.) 4: Nick should be your DUSTLOOP ACCOUNT NAME (just so everyone knows who you are.) 5: Channel = #RUIDLRanbatReboot Please note, everyone should be in the room by 9:45pm EST, so things can move smoothly.Is there ANYTHING else that I should know? Yes there is, and these are some of the most important things about this ranbat. 1) WILLFUL disconnects will incur a one (1) game penalty. If it happens a second time, that player forfeits the match. 2) Off-Stream Matches must be reported as soon as they are finished. 3) Most importantly: Try to enjoy yourselves! This is designed to be competitive, but fun can be experienced through competition!If I miss my match, what happens? There is a 10 minute window for your match. If you miss it, you forfeit your match. If you will be late, PLEASE feel free to e-mail me at clintonbowman@outlook.comWill there be weekly updates? Yes! Check out Hit-Confirm Live every Thursday night at 9pm for the score updates, as well as for any updates to the rules. If anyone has any other questions, feel free to ask them here!

Spring_Raid Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 I'll give this another try and take it a bit more seriously.
Omex Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 Playing in this without my graduation paper being due the next morning will probably work out a lot better this time around!

grove03 Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 SOON!!! I might be able to participate in the next one!
Rybuster Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 I'm in. Oh right, I was supposed to practice a bunch of new stuff I've seen in some videos. Maybe I will do that before this(spoiler! I won't).
Spring_Raid Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 (edited) I'm in. Oh right, I was supposed to practice a bunch of new stuff I've seen in some videos. Maybe I will do that before this(spoiler! I won't). How about we both play and work on some new stuff, when I get off work today? I've got a few setups I'd like to practice as well. Edit: I'll be home around 7pm Edited May 8, 2013 by Spring_Raid
Rybuster Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 How about we both play and work on some new stuff, when I get off work today? I've got a few setups I'd like to practice as well. Hm, well I certainly shouldn't turn this chance for practice down. I'll be good to play around 5, 4ish if I'm lucky.
Tsukahara Posted May 9, 2013 Posted May 9, 2013 I should be free for this one so I will throw my hat in. Probably get destroyed by lag but Damnit I'm gonna try!
Omex Posted May 9, 2013 Posted May 9, 2013 Whoops, nevermind. Helped a friend who helps organize tournies by lending him my 360 copy, so I won't be able to participate until next week.
Zangriefing Posted May 9, 2013 Posted May 9, 2013 (edited) I should be free for this one so I will throw my hat in. Probably get destroyed by lag but Damnit I'm gonna try! I'm rooting for you, man. Take Akihiko all the way to the championship! Don't let the Heat and Spurs stop you! Edited May 9, 2013 by Zangriefing

Tsukahara Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 I'm super out of practice though. I've been grinding Johnny and Hazama for an upcoming tourney and haven't given poor Akihiko any of my time in almost 2 weeks. But I will do my best!
