Talk:Tourney (disambiguation)

I think this should be cleaned up. I'm not good with formatting, but this just looks incorrect. Anyone? Tomm 18:00, September 16, 2007 (EDT)

Winner out and Loser out?

I thought these were Rotation modes? Ike's Best Buddy^{Merry! Christmas!!}

In Brawl they are. In Melee, they are Tournament settings. Dr. Pain 99 (talk) 00:03, June 13, 2010 (UTC)

Why?

2 questions.

1. Why is the tournament mode not used in tournaments?

2. If tournament mode is not used in tournaments, why do they exist at all? Avengingbandit 01:05, 2 January 2012 (EST)

1.Anyone, regardless of skill level, can be pitted against someone on the opposite of the skill spectrum. In addition, only one match may occur at a time, leading to an impossible expectation for a finish time, along with the attendance at certain tournaments. Some have well over 400 Smashers participating. Assuming each match took 4 minutes, and it was a strict 1 v 1, the time it takes to complete the first row of a the Tournament Mode is a total of 800 minutes, not taking the time for players to walk up to the single TV.

2.Nintendo views it as useful. My assumption would be that they invisioned the game to be played among friends, putting in a tournament mode that would let a group of friends participate.

There is no need to ask questions that were answered on the IRC by the people who have an idea of the tournament system. MegaTron1XD 02:09, 2 January 2012 (EST)

I explained this to you already.

1. Along with what Mega said, there's no option for seeding other than random, single elimination is the only tournament type, players are forced to remain a single character, all matches have to consist of a single game, and it has a maximum limit of 32 players (64 in Melee), when tournaments can well exceed that limit.

In short, the built-in tournament mode is far too limited to create an optimal tournament.

2. Who says the developers created tournament mode for serious tournaments and not as a fun side mode for friends? For a fun little tournament between friends, tournament mode is fine. Omega Tyrant 08:35, 2 January 2012 (EST)

Can't figure out how to get player 1 & 2 both in brawl's tournament.

IT IS TOO CONFUSING AND I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT IS GOING ON IT RANDOMLY SELECTS IF IT IS PLAYER 1 OR PLAYER 2 AND WE CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT IS GOING ON sorry for the caps, but, also, we are using GameCube controllers. MegaMCAlly (talk) 17:20, 14 July 2013 (EDT)

Do not ask questions about help and tech support on talk pages. And you posted "Sorry for the caps" at the end, why could you not have just retyped the beginning so it didn't have any caps? Awesome Cardinal 2000 17:42, 14 July 2013 (EDT)

Super Smash Bros. 4

Shouldn't this get updated with the info from the direct? 70.45.224.91 11:31, 26 October 2014 (EDT)

8 player smash

Is it possible to have 8 player smash tournaments on the Wii U version?

Bowser vs Bowser Jr. (talk)

Tournament mode is not yet available in Smash for Wii U (it is apparently set for release in August), which is why this article doesn't have much to say about it. I get the impression that it will only be playable online, and 8-player Smash can't be played online. But I'm not clear on that. Zyrac (talk) 09:48, 8 July 2015 (EDT)

Split

Having played both modes, I support a split. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe Nutta. 09:23, 31 July 2015 (EDT)

Support for the reason listed on the template, which I put up. Nyargleblargle (Talk) 09:26, 31 July 2015 (EDT)
