Tournament talk:Pound 2016

Naming

Why is this called Pound VI? The official name is "Pound 2016". I can see the argument for this being the sixth "serious" Pound event after Pound V, but them we have Pound V.5 in the middle. If anything I think this page should be named Pound 2016. The official Facebook event calls it Pound 2016, the official twitter acc, Smash.gg, Smashboards and even the official logo.

Can I move this page from "Pound VI" to "Pound 2016"? The event is officially named "Pound 2016". There's no mention of "Pound VI" except from the community itself, also this is actually the 7th Pound event, after Pound V.5. PFFP (talk) 20:44, 15 December 2015 (EST)

Welp, I'm doing it. PFFP (talk) 12:18, 16 December 2015 (EST)

Upsets and milestones

Should be included in tournament pages. This is something we've done regularly in tournament pages, and I see no reason to stop now. Increasing page size matters very little. Serpent King 02:08, 4 April 2016 (EDT)

"With ZeRo's absence from the Smash 4 event due to medical issues, Abadango won his first major American tournament using Mewtwo, a character generally considered to be in the mid tiers. Dabuz failed to make top eight while Nairo was eliminated early on at a disappointing 49th place, his worst placing at a major so far. Marss and Pink Fresh also notably placed 3rd and 7th, respectively. In the Melee event, Hungrybox took his third major in a row without dropping a set, losing only a single game to Mango in grand finals; Mango additionally fell to Hax in winners' semis, though he later ousted him in losers' finals. Swedish Delight and Laudandus both made unexpected top eight finishes while InfiniteNumbers placed 9th at his first-ever major, beating DJ Nintendo, Alex19, MacD, and Mike Haze; Axe and Westballz also suffered early losses, placing 25th and 33rd respectively. "

It's unnecessary, and some of the info could go into the trivia regarding low placements. None of the recent majors have it (TBH5, G3 and Battle Of Five Gods, for example) so I don't see why this one should. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Shinon (talk • contribs) 02:10, 4 April 2016 (EDT)

That Mango lost to Hax is notable, that Mewtwo and Abadango finally won a major is notable, I don't see your point here. Serpent King 02:12, 4 April 2016 (EDT)

That's 2 things, however, I don't see how ZeRo not being able to come, low placements like Axe and Westballz for Melee and high placements like Marss and Pink Fresh are relevant at all to non-trivia parts of the page.

Instead of having this gigant thing, it could be added to the trivia page to some degree, similar to Nairo. (for example, "This has been the lowest placing for Axe since The Big House 5.) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Shinon (talk • contribs) 02:15, 4 April 2016 (EDT)

Well one could say that ZeRo is kinda good at this game, so people are going to be wondering why he didn't place in a major. Axe and Westballz's placements were indeed surprising. Serpent King 02:24, 4 April 2016 (EDT)
