    I know he's done them before, I'm one of his best friends irl. I'm just trying to help him out, that's all. I just want his tournaments to run well.

      The easiest way to solve this problem is to check out their level rank stats and place them based on that, not by what they tell you they should be in. Some people are going to lie and obviously tell you that, basically, they're not very good, so they want to be placed in D2. Seriously, just make your ultimate determinations by thoroughly checking people's level ranks. It's the most effective way to place someone, at least that I know of. Your tournament will run a lot smoother if you do so.

      If anyone has other suggestions to help, I suggest posting them soon, as the tournament starts in two days. Just trying to help all of you, including myself, have a good experience in this tournament, not having everyone whining about where others are placed. The list just plain needs to be reorganized. MetalAtlas, just go through the list and check each person's level rank and place them accordingly. Simple as that. You'll be able to tell who is supposed to be in D5 pretty easily, obviously if you're seeing FMO AAAs on someone's account, that's a fairly big giveaway. Alright, that's all I have to say.

      I hope this helped somewhat and makes the tournament run better.

      EDIT: Also, why can people be in more than one division? Seems confusing and unfair to me. Just sayin'.
      yeah i know lol im not sure how far i can get without a subbie though i havent poked around yet

      just so you know, i was gonna go through the list to make sure everyone was being honest, remove those who werent and replace everyone. ya know when everyone i knew how many people i had overall. I didnt realize i was gonna get chewed out on placement before i even started this. But yeah. People will be looked through when i decided the eliminations and prizes and stuff. So hold on to your horses people. Neeeeeeeeee.

If life's not beautiful without the pain, well I'd rather never even ever see beauty again. As life gets longer, awful feels softer, and it feels pretty soft to me.

        This says that you weren't going to check anything unless someone complained about a placement. But now you say you were going to check everyone.

          I honestly think that everyone should let Shayne run his tourney his way.... This is NOTHING against hells or Kayla. I feel, that if YOU feel this is going to be ran horribly based upon placements, let them be so and you can "I told you so" later. DF is running an excellent tournament with a HUGE outcome. I agree you can easily base your placements off of them. I do. But, it IS your tournament.

          I have hosted with you Shayne countless times no matter what it is. I know you'll do the right thing in this. As a friend and ex-co-hoster.

                see now people like Delta and Blackjack are players that I like. Honest and trustworthy with words. Those are good people right there.

                  Oh okay, that's cool then. I thought you were going to be awarded multiple prizes if you won both, that's why it seemed weird.

                    Re: MetalAtlas' Back To Basics Tourney

                    Hi I'm completely new to FFR forums, and would like to start taking part in tournaments. I don't really know how, so I guess thats why I'm posting.
                    In terms of my skill level, I have FC'd {arabian assassin}, {red alert}, Maple Leaf Rag, and a few other 9s and 8s. I'm currently working on FCing some 9s. What division should I sign up for?
                    I guess my sign up is 1hr late, so if I could still participate It would be appreciated.
                    Thanks!

                    yeah you're good i added you to D1 we'll see how you do

                    K, change me into D1 then. I can't even FC 9's and I can't FC hard 8's.(which imo red alert is). Also someone who can FC 9's into D1?
                    I hate my name.

                      Saying "I told you so" at the end of a tournament just makes you look even more like an asshole because you knew about the misplaced people the entire time and let the rest of the division suffer. Yes, Shayne is allowed to run the tournament the way he wants - notice how we're not talking to him about his actual tournament itself, how the scoring is, credits, etc. There's nothing demeaning about bringing up division mis-placements because they always happen, no matter what tournament you're in. People are either dis-honest or just suddenly take a turn for the worst (or for the better, even). Being off one division in a six division tournament is perfectly alright, because even the slightest of discrepancies can cause that. Being off two divisions is a bit of a problem, but again, things happen. People have skill drops, or have major boosts (and simply don't say anything).

                      However, I will say this - if you're going to run a tournament, you most definitely need to have someone who is willing to view the levelstats of other users.

                      Also, I wasn't laughing at MP3 player being misplaced, I only posted the way I did because it was an absolute urgency, and a huge division misplacement that would have pretty much pissed off all of D2 once they saw the AAA; people with the Oni token unlock shouldn't be any lower than D5 out of 6, unless their song is an index friendly song (FotBB), from which you see their stats on other songs and check their weekly ranks to see if they've made any sort of improvement that hasn't been shown in a replay.
