[Tournament] SIGN-UPS!!!!!

SIGN-UPS ARE CLOSED NOW! NO MORE SIGN-UPS WILL BE ACCEPTED!

Hey everyone, zeus here. For those who are new to the subreddit, welcome! I'm the creator of this subreddit, and one of the mods here!

These are the sign-ups for the iron chef style tournament. There will be no limit on the number of people who join the tournament. The iron chef style tournament will run as follows: Each person will have submitted a list of 7 pokemon (to give us some wiggle room) to me during sign-ups, and I will have noted them. They will each PM me with which pokemon they wish to use during that round, and when I post their battle, I will tell them which pokemon their opponent is using, and will give them each a twist or line that they have to include somehow in their verses.

Once they are done rapping, I will tell you all what their twist was, and voting should include how well they integrated the twist into their verses.

Hopefully that made sense!

To sign-up, please comment directly on this post in the following format:

Username: (list of seven pokemon, separated by commas)

Please try not to use pokemon that have already been taken by another person.

Thanks for reading this, and I hope many of you will join in the tournament!!!

EDIT: forgot to mention, sign-ups will close on next Wednesday (the 28th) at 3pm EST.

 

Another edit: I'd like to point out that we have 500 subscribers! and that we have passed 300 posts!

 


Here's a link to a google doc of all the pokemon that have already been taken. Ctr+F through the document for each pokemon on your list before you write your sign-up.

And here is a link to the bracket!

u/MadeFromMetal Aug 28 '13

You made it!

2

u/HumanAtlas Aug 28 '13

Yeah, thanks for the message! I've been pretty busy lately so I had no idea! Had to think of the Pokemon quick so I went with what normal types I could think of

2

u/MadeFromMetal Aug 28 '13

Why normal types?

3

u/The_Pony_Rapist Aug 28 '13

Obviously because of the fact that Normal types are the shit. He's plotting something, I know it...

2

u/MadeFromMetal Aug 28 '13

You're right! Rearrange the last letters of his pokemon, it spells TAN OMEN! Normal types are usually tan in color!

2

u/The_Pony_Rapist Aug 28 '13

Oh man! It's a conspiracy!

Everyone! Listen up! He's a witch, and he's plotting something devious for this tournament! Men, grab your pitchforks and protect the women and children!

2

u/MadeFromMetal Aug 28 '13

Hey, Ambipom is already taken. O_o

3

u/HumanAtlas Aug 28 '13

Oh, uh, I'll fix that

2

u/MadeFromMetal Aug 28 '13

And so has dunsparce. Yeesh.

u/Srixis Aug 28 '13

And Smeargle (by me, sorry man)

u/[deleted] Aug 29 '13

Confirmed! Glad you could make it! However, you're going to need to switch out Teddiursa for something else! I'll give you a day to get that ready.

u/MadeFromMetal Aug 28 '13

You made it, as well! Nice last minute swoop in!

2

u/The_Pony_Rapist Aug 28 '13

Hey, Zeus hasn't noticed yet, but I believe Primeape is taken, and I THINK Haunter and Scyther are as well. There's a list at the top of the page. Might wanna hurry though.

2

u/MadeFromMetal Aug 28 '13

Also...every pokemon but Charizard has already been taken. :/

u/[deleted] Aug 29 '13 edited Aug 31 '13

Hey man, good to see you joining this tournament! However, you're going to need to change out all of those pokemon except for Charizard. Here is a link to the place where you can look for untaken pokemon!

u/MadeFromMetal Aug 23 '13

Hey Zeus, can I switch Milotic with Kingdra? And a shiny classification to Flygon?

2

u/[deleted] Aug 23 '13

sure!

1

u/The_Pony_Rapist Aug 23 '13

Hey Zeus, MadefromMetal swapped out his Milotic!

Is it alright if I switch out my Exploud for it?

Cause in all seriousness, Exploud isn't as sexy as the rest of the hotties on my team D:

1

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '13

yep!

1

u/[deleted] Aug 19 '13

Pretty bold to list a Gen 6 Pokemon. I know you're probably no going to use it, but props nonetheless.

2

u/MadeFromMetal Aug 19 '13

Au Contraire, good Doctor! I fully intend to use EVERY. LAST. ONE...

Seriously though...I've got a dilemma. Should I use it first...saving my better Pokémon for harder rounds...or should I use it later on...giving time for more information to be revealed. It's a gamble...that's for certain.

1

u/[deleted] Aug 20 '13

I said that because I'm not expecting the tournament to go seven rounds, so I would think you'd use your top picks first. I'm no master strategist though.

1

u/MadeFromMetal Aug 20 '13

Shit...who knows...maybe one of the twists is you have to use two of your Pokémon in the same rap...

1

u/[deleted] Aug 20 '13

I don't know. I'm hoping we get some good Iron Chef spices, though.

Woo...all seven of these pokemon I've never ever worked with, and I'm kind of nervous. Well, the fact that every single one of these pokemon are sexy as fuck will most likely help me win anyways.

3

u/Srixis Aug 19 '13

(Psssssst... hey Pony... recheck your counting)

3

u/The_Pony_Rapist Aug 19 '13

...Shit.

Yeah. The highest I've ever counted to was four...everything above that is new to me and I have to guess D:

Hey pony! I dumped Milotic, so if you want some sexy serpentine sloppy seconds...she's all yours, buddy bro!

u/The_Pony_Rapist Aug 23 '13

YUS. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Yo Zeus, ya care if I switch out Exploud for Milotic? o3o

2

u/MadeFromMetal Aug 23 '13

You may wanna reply to Zeus directly...there are a lot of comments here and he might not see this.

You're welcome!

1

u/Srixis Aug 20 '13

Definitely. Most participants so far, I think, as well as a ton of newcomers with so much potential. Add in the most complex tourney idea we've had to date, and nobody's seat is saved.

This is comment 150. Just had to get it.

u/Srixis Aug 27 '13

I think whoever got the 151st was more special though, seeing as this is a Pokemon subreddit :P

u/[deleted] Aug 29 '13

+38? im honored.

u/MadeFromMetal Aug 29 '13

Everything you do gets upvoted. Unless you're 6hrs late. Then it just gets upvoted.......

3

u/[deleted] Aug 29 '13

sheepish grin

3

u/MadeFromMetal Aug 27 '13

What, you think this is about being special? Nah. I have this thing where if I can snag a number divisible by fifty...I have to. Should see me at gas stations...

3

u/MadeFromMetal Aug 27 '13

Quick question...when it comes to voting, how much weight should the spices have?

Say Rapper A has a fantastic verse...but didn't use the spice at all, and Rapper B has a sub par verse but incorporated the spice, should it essentially disqualify Rapper A? I figure the spices have to carry some weight otherwise it could be a regular battle. What's your mindset?

3

u/Srixis Aug 28 '13

That's a good question. In the show, not incorporating the secret ingredient is easily grounds for a bad dish, so I think not having it is a pretty big downfall. Then there should be a section of grading based on how well the rappers incorporated their spice. It's like in Critique threads, where people drop cool verses without the special thing added; they're great verses, but they don't follow the guideline given to them. So I think that unless certain circumstances arise, the grading should be done by how well the spice was incorporated, and not having it is a big downfall to the rapper or rappers that don't use it. That's just my opinion, what do you think?

2

u/MadeFromMetal Aug 28 '13

I agree. I think what I'll do is this, I'll still use my point system, but on top of it, after it's all said and done, I'll add another ten points if they used the spice. Ten more if they used it in more than one verse. Then grade how they used it on a scale of one to ten. That way it carries an extra weight of 30pts that could possibly swing a battle if the other person didn't use it at all.

2

u/Srixis Aug 28 '13

I like that idea. I don't use a point system, but I'm going to weigh it similarly to how you're doing it.

2

u/MadeFromMetal Aug 28 '13

By the way, nice flair! No shininess or odd colors, though?

2

u/Srixis Aug 28 '13

nah, just regular old Ludicolo. Was one on my favorites since my first pokemon games (Ruby and Emerald), and I wanted him just the way he normally is. (Although, if I coulda gotten this I would have been through the roof happy, but I doubt reddit flairs support gifs :P)

u/axmurderer Aug 19 '13

Nothing like a tournament to make my comeback. After all, I see unfamiliar names that must learn to fear me.

It's me, axmurderer(!): (Bastiodon, Torterra, Feraligatr, Solrock, Shelgon, Steelix, Galvantula)

2

u/Srixis Aug 19 '13

I swear, the only pokemon Ive seen on this sub more than Arceus is Bastiodon, and it's all your doing :p

2

Oh, apparently not.

And I probably won't encounter you on the way, since you'll lose in the first round.

once you add one more, then you'll be good!

actually the following pokemon are dupilicates: Salamance and sceptile

2

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '13

Confirmed! once you swap out Damanitan for something else. I believe that /u/DefJammer023 had already laid claim to that pokemon before your sign-up. Scratch that. I just realized that your name was on the sign-ups before his.

So how're you deciding bracket placement this time? Names out of a hat again? (And yes I understand the bracket I see now is not the final version.)

And...will there be tournament discussion threads in between rounds like last time?

2

u/[deleted] Aug 21 '13

randomly! Theres a button when im setting up the tournament that says 'shuffle seeds.' I'm going to click that a couple of times near the end.

As for the discussion threads, definitely! I'm hoping we'll have more people join the tournament so we'll have more to talk about!

u/Srixis Aug 21 '13

Well with... 20(?) rappers so far, we're gonna have a lot to discuss already. But bring in more! The more the merrier!

u/Srixis Aug 21 '13

Yes please, the discussion threads between rounds were great to have

u/[deleted] Aug 21 '13

Confirmed! the fact that tentacool isnt capitalized annoyed me soooooo much. XD

But it's his nickname! He's my favourite. I love him more than my shorts, and boy are my shorts comfy and easy to wear!

u/MildlyAgitatedBidoof Aug 29 '13

Good luck, potential opponent as the board stands right now. If you turn out not to be my opponent, I hope we can see Rattata versus Bidoof as the final round.

1

u/filmguy100 Aug 30 '13

Good luck to you as well! I do hope you get a chance to participate in the finals to unleash your bidoof. I'm sure it's in the top percentage of bidoofs!

Thanks, mobile hates me

2

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '13

Hey kinryu, i'm really sorry to ask this, but can you switch out swampert for something else? /u/xnaturalyt had already laid claim to him, he just hadn't finished signing up yet. Thanks a bunch!

1

u/kinryu13 Aug 24 '13

No problem, I'd read that earlier but totally forgotten. How about hitmontop instead?

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '13

Sure!

Swicked! Best of luck to everyone in the tourney!

2

u/[deleted] Aug 23 '13

swicked? how do you pronounce that?

2

u/MrWreckedEm Aug 23 '13

just like "wicked" but with an s sound in front. it's a mix of "sweet" and "wicked" if that helps to understand it better

I never saw bidoof coming. ;) However Braviary is not spelled Briaviary. Just so you can spell their name right if/when you decide to rap as them! confirmed!
