puggy vs. LonelyNess
Sikh Assassin vs. Nuke144
Stall vs. AzNGooK

GTS vs. [.darkie.]
 
Its how I described it. Each member plays the other two winners, if there is a tie at the end, poke difference decides it.
 
I kind of like the idea of putting the winner of the losers bracket in as the 4th person.... It would make all of those in the losers bracket actually feel like they were achieving something by winning the bracket.

It's like this, the loser's from the winner's bracket, go to the loser's bracket, then if you lose in the loser's bracket, you are out!

This of course means the loser's bracket will take longer, but it is then fair, and everybody is happy that they had a try to at least be the best of the losers!

That is not double elimination.

In a double elimination tournament, the last person standing in the loser's bracket faces the last person standing in the winner's bracket. The winner's bracket finalist wins the tourney if he wins 1 of 2 games. The loser's bracket finalist must win 2 games, without losing 1.

Please confirm whether or not this is double elimination. If anyone who loses once has no chance of winning, i will not bother playing another match.
 
Backing LonelyNess's idea. The winner from the Loser's bracket joins the other three winners to make four finalists. It's the easiest solution and gives all those "losers" a second chance at the finals as well as something to strive for.

Please LonelyNess... it seems you try to scoop up any opportunity to get back in the winners bracket section...

The Losers Brakcet is their for fun... if you dont feel like you are accomplishing anything then dont play... Sikh even had the chance to rid the tourney of a losers bracket.

It is just there for fun, get over it.

Oh, that's obviously not because...oh, I dunno...EVERY OTHER DOUBLE ELIM TOURNEY EVER consists of a Loser vs Winner final.[/sarcasm]
 
That's the winner's chose, but that's only if the winner is really that cocky that he'd be willing to have to fight again for the title

Of course they wouldn't, this is why the Loser's Bracket is there for fun. If I do state that some people would have a fit, and some would get there hopes up just to get them crushed again :(
 
We are again, not doing a double elim. tourney. Everyone complained that it was unfair for the winner of the losers bracket to get another chance...

They're NOT getting another chance...

In a double elim tourney, it lasts until EVERYONE BUT THE WINNER HAS LOST TWICE! Everyone has an equal chance to win, it is very fair.
 
oh... sorry

I guess I wasn't really reading what you were saying...

Ok fine... Sikh, do what Stall suggested

Again, sorry for the confusion stall.
