Never give up hope as an underdog. You'll get a lot of respect from those cheering you on if you push your hardest.
I like to bring this up to anyone who thinks they can't -- I was in the 4th official FFR tournament in D5 (out of 5) and only had two FMO AAAs. A few people in D4 had more than I did, lol. This was the same year that Shashakiro and Laggy had a pretty sick battle at the end and I was nowhere near them. I practiced and played as hard as I possibly could and put up a fight until round 7 (out of 10), when Hardkore Atomic absolutely destroyed me. From there on, I started playing really competitively and used that drive to improve my play.
It's always worth practicing, because even if you don't progress in the tournament, it's quite likely that you'll have improved a bit with the practice you committed to. You might be out of the tournament now, but that doesn't mean you can't play to improve yourself as a player on the side.
Last year, in the 6th official, I was eliminated in round 4 of D1 off of Jumper, which I mental blocked to a horrible extent. I then stopped playing for weeks, if not months. I can feel the same thing about to happen. I'm sure I'll be eliminated in round 4 once more, and next tourney as well probably. However, I'll be DAMNED if it's without a fight this time. When I'm not working, sleeping, eating, or taking a piss, I'll be training. You look for me in that scoreboard, cause I plan to shock and awe, and give D2 something to remember!
I honestly have no idea who Spike is.. But I'll probably just order enough for 25 gift bags then. That'll be easier on me then. I am just putting MLP in the people who ask for it. They will get some cool stuff maybe like figure/keychain, Pins, Stickers, charm, Bookmark, Magnet, etc....
Where as EVERYONE is getting Nintendo/Pokemon/Zelda/Video game stuff whether they want it or not. I cannot make gift bags solely MLP or Pokemon or Nintendo. It's going to be mixed ^^.
If I make it I'd defenitely like MLP stuff, I counted either 20 or 21 of us remain in the tourney right now so I'd say 20 is a pretty good number. Also Spike is the baby dragon who is Twilight Sparkles companion as seen in Frozen's signature haha.
I thought I would ask here over the tournament thread, but can you guys somehow estimate at how many people will want MLP items in their gift bags?
I ask this because some stuff I want to order has limited stock so I need to know as soon as I can. There are about 90 people who will win a gift bag and idk... so I'm not sure how much I should order.
Is it fine that I stick to the 7 most popular ponies for this?
I have down Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Derpy, Applejack, and Twilight Sparkle. I don't know any of the other names either so if you have a suggestion feel free to leave it.
People are more open to the show than others, but if I had a number to work off of, I'd probably say somewhere in the margin of 10-20? Not sure on how many people have qualified for a gift bag yet, is it top 15 (90), or top 16 (96)? I have a list of people that have already been eliminated from the tournament and what rounds they were eliminated on if you need to check that out. (It's located in section 2. Current team scores)
I'd probably want a MLP gift bag, a lot of people seem to be edging for one, but there are the few who don't. Ponies in gift bags and the subject of wanting one or not is biased from player to player and very hard to do, but if you want to try for it, be my guest. I'd respect that. And yes, if you can make it happen, the 7 most popular would be amazing.

No don't go D: Fluvs you are wanted! Haha, It took me 400+ times to get round 3 for me - I just never gave up. It took me that many attempts to get what most people in d3+ can get in just 1-5 attempt. I mean really in comparison to those in other divisions our skills are not that far off at all. Please don't go D: I miss you already!!! What am I gonna do without my secret rival?

I could go for pony prizes. I like all the ponies (not just G4) so whatever you have/get would be great.

No matter what tournament you play it's likely you're going to come across something you don't like or are very bad at. If you want to get into the competitive side of FFR you need to learn how to deal with and overcome these songs/charts.
Really, it all started with you as a friendly rival :P Hehe. In all honesty, if you look at ALL of my stats, what I accomplished in these rounds in D1 is far superior then I have ever done in FFR. And as your official friendly rival I hear by state that for the next 500 years we both will be not only friendly rivals, but supporters in tournaments / tiers / AAA / whatever to push each-other to our greatest potential

You know, its funny. It was FFR months ago that got me into MLP, then turned me into a hardcore brony. (I blame Gold Stinger / Megamon lololol) If I win a Derpy doll that shit will be displayed in my room for all too see. (Lol my friends are gonna be all wtf Vince?) Hahaha
