Recommended Posts

Gather your courage and grasp your blade; It's time for the blood letting to begin! Assemble, brave warriors! The age of Samurai, Shoguns and the echoes of steel against steel has come once again. Will you emerge victorious, the cleaved bodies of those who dared to oppose you left behind in your wake? Or will your life gush out from the hole in your neck, opened wide by your rival's blade? We'll soon find out, this Shodown is about to start!

If you're interested in participating, please respond in this thread. Unlike the NHL tournament, you do not have to announce what characters you will choose. In fact, you may choose a different selection of characters in every match if you choose to do so, so long as the selection complies with the tournament's rules, which are listed below.

TOURNAMENT ROMS AND EMULATORS (necessary for play):

The ROM:

http://pc0.sepwich.com/SamuraiShodown.rar

The Emulator:

http://gens32.emubase.de/Gens32/Gens32_Surreal_v1_76.zip[/i]

*Note: We will be using Gens32 for this tourney.

AWARDS FOR THIS TOURNAMENT:

Participation: +3 reputation

Each win: +1 reputation

SHOGUN (tournament winner): +10 reputation, plus a 64x64 pixel Shogun badge to display in your sig!

These incentives are to encourage participation! So play and gain reputation!

RULES FOR THIS TOURNAMENT:

NOTE 1: The game/room's starter is PLAYER 1

NOTE 2: Rules are subject to change before start of tournament

*Each match is played with a Shodown battle. This prevents players from over using one particular character and requires mastery of at least 5 separate characters for best results. Shodown mode is where each player chooses 5 characters each and then fight it out team battle style.

*Charlotte is NOT to be used in this tournament. She is obscenely over powered, anyone who's played this game knows this. NO exceptions, NO argument.

*Amakusu is NOT to be used in this tournament. He's a friggin' boss character guys, come on.

*Versus options are as follows: 4 health bars for both players, medium items appearance, any level

Yes, that is a complete moves list. Unlike Street Fighter 2, Samurai Shodown is about quick, calm, measured strikes, not spamming X special move. Sorry boys, fire ball spamming isn't going to help you much this time.

The Slaughter Begins May 19th!

He hasn't even announced a date yet... -_-

The Slaughter Begins May 9th!

... yeah.

Anyways, I think I'll sit this one out. It's not that I don't like SamSho - I just have important things I need to do on those days, and it would be suicide to ignore them even a little, given how disorganized and lazy I can be. =/

I rox at samurai showdown with haohmaru. I'll enter if it ever happens.

"If"? We've already done one tourney. This WILL be going down, PERIOD.

Oh and Aero, I like how in your quote you omit the most important part. "The Slaughter Begins May 9th! (subject to change)". That subject to change part was there for a reason. Jeez man.
