When we get around to making brackets and signing people up we can do probably see if people would like Fun, Glory, or both. I'd participate in both tournaments.

So where's the For Freedom option? Or For Friends?

Or perhaps For The Users.

I also forget, is For Glory played only on Final Destination? Or the Ω versions of the other stages too?

I really hope the others...

EDIT: Never mind. The Ω forms actually arent all equal. They're shaped differently under the stage.

For Glory forces all stages to their Omega (Final Destination) forms. Also, was it confirmed that For Glory is only one-on-one? I don't remember hearing that...

Maybe we can do what the Smash tournament at E3 did and have most brackets be For Fun since it is 4 Players with items than the final match be For Glory since it is One on One.

Something I just thought of: Where are we going to discuss new information that comes out when the 3DS version is released in Japan? The other thread is for leaks and rumors which that doesn't really fall under. Should we make another thread, change that thread's title and purpose or just post here with spoilers on?

I think it would be best to repurpose the leak thread as a general spoiler thread after the game's release. After all, leaks are just spoilers released earlier than intended.

The other thread is almost as good as done once the release date hits. No need to have an entirely different one join it not even a month later, especially with an apparently story-less game like this.

That said, re-purposing the leak thread does sound like the ideal solution.

[up][up][up]I think we should either make a new thread or repurpose the other thread. This should still be the General Smash thread so we can still discuss the news for the Wii U version.

I should probably be the one to mention that one-on-one stereotypical competitive Smash can actually be quite fun, just that it scratches a different itch than the four-player free-for-all item fests do. Though if I had my choice I would say include more stages than just Final Destination and the Omega stages. Preferably Battlefield and any other stages that aren't #banned. which will likely end up being nothing but Final Destination and Battlefield

Also, what's the point of carrying the arbitrary For Fun / For Glory divide outside of anonymous online matches? Even if we go with a 1v1, no items setup, the permitted stages are incredibly limiting.

Yeah that's my issue. At least go with the stages that would generally be considered legal. That poses a bit of a problem in the 3DS version since practically none of them are, but there might be some. Might.

Considering this tourney is set up with absolutely nothing on the line, we could also do it Invitational style and have For Fun-type matches early on and have the semifinals and finals in a more typical competitive Smash style.

Wait, we're calling FD verisons Omega versions?

That really throws me off, after having played Dissidia Final Fanasy, wherein Omega versions of stages are almost invariably the more chaotic versions (except for ******ing Planet's Core Omega)

Omega versions are what they're officially called, according to the leak that's been right in every case so far. So happy confusing!

[up][up]That could probably work. I think it might be better to make it double elimination like the 3DS tournament rather than single elimination like the E3 one though.

The indicator that a stage is in Final Destination mode on the menus and such is an omega symbol at the end, tough, so it's official usage.

I might be interested in a Troper Smash tourney, once the Wii U version comes out and I'm able to get it.

I would participate, but there's the whole "can't go online with a 3DS on campus" issue I mentioned earlier. Pretty sure that rules me out.
