[peter_pan]

congrats to noobster and the others =)

 

[Cromat]

I knew I could only lose to the best!
Congrats Noobster, Hip, Homsar and Aeolus you are all excellent at what you do.

 

[Explodus]

Congrats

Also, thanks for making me stay up to 3am and then having the battle 20 minutes after I left. :|

 

[Arkeis]

I have 2 big essays due next week so I'm gonna be really busy. But I'll get on with designing the T-shirt ASAP when I'm done with those.

Also congrats to Noobster and every else in the tourney. :D

 

[freaktron]

Again, congrats everyone. This has encouraged me to try my hardest in the next official Smogon tourney. But don't be that late next time Noobster :p

 

[jpchato]

awesome job noobster 8)

 

[bleep]

i really think homsar deserves a mention in there... he did really well considering he was the underdog in most of his matches.

 

[Jackal]

go eat a enchalada gomez

 

[noobster]

Again, thanks everyone (actually I just posted this to tell freaktron to stop posting shitty posts).

 

[ABC-Trainer]

Congrats to homsar, choop, Alamaster, and Noobster who did really well in this tourney.

and skarm is a noob

 

[Mekkah]

Congratulations, winners!

Awaiting the logs and war stories with tense.

 

[Articuno64]

A great tourney that featured many of the best, with no shortage of upsets (skarm gone in round 1? heresy!). People made their claims to fame with this tourney (homsar), and the competition was top notch. Smoothly run, no bitching, and all around fun for everyone. Congrats to Noobster and everyone else!

 

[Doomsday]

Congratulations everyone, Noobster for winning this, Hip and Aeolus for 2nd and 3rd place, and the admins for the organization of this :)
/late

 

[gorgie]

Congrats to all Final and Semi-finalists!

 

[Shiv]

Congrats Noobster. Hip you wasted too much of you daily cheating quota on Uno, lol. Aeo, you tried your best but beating cheaters isnt easy! Lastly, to homsar, you surpised everyone and imo are the real winner. Being the underdog isnt easy but you proved them all wrong, gfg man.

 

[NZ-1337]

Hipmonlee is still my Pokemon hero!

 

[JMC]

[Zero]

Who won the T-Shirt via predictions?

Yeah, who?

 

[cook]

just let it die imo.

 

[Aeolus]

Holy Shit NZ, this thing was massive.

 

[skarm]

Yeah, who?

I didn't check that topic once after posting it to be quite honest!

 

[The.Lost.Hylian]

I'll join the bandwagon and give a hearty congratulations to everyone who did well, especially Noobster, Hip, and Aeolus. I found it a great surprise to see a non-Smogon regular doing so well, and not because I feel Smogon members are superior, but because Smogon is viewed as an elitist group, and to have a minority get into the top 3 was a great achievement.

I wish I had been here for the signups of this tournament, but I for some reason miss all the major things going on at the forum. A suggestion for next year: make forum-wide announcements for something this fucking big, because I was really disappointed to see that I missed out so quickly :(

 

[husk]

Lost to the best and by no long shot ;-)

Congrats guys and the main sucess of this tournament was how well it was co-ordinated and how hyped everyone was about it, which can be attributed directly to...skarm and chaos, I guess...
