Alright, got 9 people signed up so far with a few maybes. If we can have friends participate, I can add another 5 people to the list. If not, then we'll stick with the 9 for now. Here's the list so far (I'll modify the list as more people join):

I think it should be with items as well, at least for the first tourney for the majority.

That's fine with me. So first tourney anything goes, second with tourney rules? Sound okay with everyone? I was thinking we have them pretty much back to back, with maybe a week in between. Let me know what you guys think.

I'm participating as well as soon as I get it. I'm in europe, but i can probably play within
a week of the american release. Also, is it possible to play online with two people on one
wii? If so, I'm signing up my melee partner as well.

Also, regaring someones final smash:
You might notice that wolf's final smash isn't exactly the same as Fox's or falco's,
other than that they all use the landmaster (which is indeed gay in and of itself, but
let's just leave it at that for now). Fox's landmaster fires harderthan falco's, but can't
spin like wolf's can. Falco's landmaster can fly a lot higher than wolf's and can be put to
use as is done in the footage. I heard Wolf's Landmaster can't shoot at all, but I don't
think that's true and refuse to believe so until I've seen proof.

Nontheless, all three final smashes have a different technique to them.

It doesn't really correct the rip-off-ness of the Landmaster, but it's different nontheless

Why are you doing sign ups now?  You should do it closer to the time of the tournament, and in its own topic.

I want to get an idea of how many people will be participating. So many people post here and I've wondered how many of those people were actually planning on getting Brawl. It's just a running list. Nothing final.

Also, is it possible to play online with two people on onewii?

You can have up to three people on one Wii for online play, but that only applies to with anyone from what I know. I don't think you'll be able to do it like that with friends, which is what we'll be using. I'm lucky that I have another friend who's getting Brawl so I can have multiple people participate from my house if necessary.

I have Brawl preordered, but if too many crazy people buy them out before I can pick it up, then I might still have to wait a bit.

I also still need the online adaptor for the Wii, but that shouldn't be hard to come by.  I also have high-speed internet, so with a direct connection, online play should be smooth.

I'd love to participate in a GW tourney, both anything goes and tourney rules, but I think we should give it a week or two before we hold it so people can get a feel for the game (and unlock everything).

I'm playing. I'm getting brawl the day it comes out.

Nice. That's 15 people so far with only 3 maybes.

And yeah, I figured we'd give it 2 weeks to a month before the tourney starts. That'd be great for planning the tourney so we can have as many people sign up as possible.

EDIT: Video showing Lucario and the stage builder. Guess they weren't kidding when they said you can unlock stuff for the stage editor.

I'll play.

Also, CorporateGreed, where'd you hear that from? If it was from someone's earlier video they posted, it might just be because the person showing the FS's was not that great and didn't show off all the aspects of each one.

Alas, it seems i was wrong. I skimmed through the smashboards, but I guess I didn't
pay quite enough attention.
