Sorry I haven't gotten mine in, I've been swamped with homework, but I should be able to get mine in by the deadline.
 
I bet mine is going to get a good score. :biggrin: I hope at least...I think it will...

Soooooooo......I guess we're all waiting for our score! :biggrin:
 
XD

Yeah, it is annoying, but what is worse... figuring out if I should edit my submission while I still can. ;)
 
the thread title says that there are still open slots, so if there are, I would like to join please. just tell if I can('t).
 
I'm REALLY sorry, guys. I am really exhausted, but I got all the scores done. There will be more detailed PMs and honorings when I am not tireddddddddd aaaaaaaaaaaagh.

After this round, I'm gonna cut to 8 players, and proceed as if the tournament had started with those 8 people. You can probably figure out who is cut before tomorrow morning, but I sure don't know yet!

haha sorry. ^^" 'night, everyone~
 
Because. You will see, soon. >>'

Okay, here are everyone's cards. I am kind of terrified by Otaku's brilliant Houndoom. You guys really need to watch out for him - he's very clever. He took Arcanine GS and capitalized on the one thing that WAS good this format: 110 HP on a stage 1 - then he built a balanced but powerful card that could use that statistic to its advantage.

Will send out score/feedback PMs shortly, but here they all are!
 
In role-playing games like GURPS or D&D, the person playing someone like Arcanine gets an appropriate nickname.

Like "meat shield".
 
Yeah, I gave you guys a long time because of the number of cards/complexity/subjectivity/etc

I am officially home! I need to clean out my inbox, really sorry to people who went to send in submissions and couldn't. But I will be available for questions and theory again until the deadline. Hope you guys had some fun holidays, I sure did.
