I'd like to have at least 16 people in it to start.
That will give 8 matches the first round.
4 Matches the second round
and 2 Matches for the Semi-Finals.
Then the final match to declare the 2007 Joe Canuck Champion.
If we get more than 16, then some matches will be 'Triple Threat' to make it fair.
Only Joe vs. Cobra characters will be used in the tournament - NO actual WWE characters permitted. (Sgt. Slaughter is the exception). Also permitted will be 'self-wrestlers'. As long as your honest about your character. For example, I would be able to to throw Rey Mysterio - but not Big Show.
Current list of wrestlers made so far:
Joes:
Big Brawler
Cutter (1984)
Dial Tone (1987)
Duke (1984)
Gung Ho (1983)
Ripcord (1984),
Roadblock (1984)
Snake Eyes
Spirit (Sigma Six)
Stalker (1983 - he has swivel arms!!)
Surefire
Wild Bill (1983)
Cobras:
Croc Master (v2)
Destro (1983)
Doctor Mindbender
Firefly
Major Bludd
Monkeywrench (1986)
Night Creeper Leader (1993)
Raptor (1987)
Storm Shadow (1984)
Tele-Viper (1985)
Board Members:
Mike
Morgardee
Raptor - the person.
People Signed up for the Tournament:
The Mike
Raptor
Scramble
Morgardee
GSmiley
Moto-Viper
Jon S.
Radio Guy
Agent Loop
Pete The Greek
Viperlord
That's 11 - 5 more to go!

BTW, don't know if you need any characters but right now I have made:
Snake Eyes
Major Bludd
Dr. Mindbender
Firefly.
All set with base points so far (38?). let me know if you want any of them. Move sets I've just cut and paste from different WWE stars (not entire copy of one wrestler, corner move from one, finisher from another, etc...)

This is a Joe Meet - not a Wrestling meet. While some people there will be coming (Hammer, you, Scramble, me), most don't give a crap about G.I. Joe.
However - Joe Customs hasn't had a post about the meet in awhile.
I'll try to get to it later on - but if anyone here is in the JCW thing - feel free to get some of them to attend!

It's the same - but you can alter the controller to the SAME settings as the previous ones.

I also haven't played the game in 8 months, but if it's the same... I will practice.

Post by: Raptor on March 10, 2007, 08:31:22 PM
I could do a JVC version of raptor using the existing one as a base if we're doing the same game. But really, do i need to make Raptor look sillier?

Post by: BHMike on March 10, 2007, 09:23:00 PM
The characters from last year won't work on the new version.
Sorry Raps. Gotta make a new one.
On the plus side, it should be easy enough to -recreate- the one you made.

It wasn't that easy - Brown was really hard to pull off on the previous version of the game, you had to "hand mix" it. Plus finding the appropriate shade of grey to make the back hair look like that wierd pattern crap on Rap's back was a challenge.
Looks like i'll have to find a copy of the new one and remake him. Maybe they'll have a proper bird head cowl for me to use this year.

Sorry Charles but I've found that the choices are even more limiting in 2007 than in 2006. There were certains customs I had that I made last year that i just couldn't duplicate this year. For example, my character of Chef Morgardee, the whole outfit he wore last year (white coverall shorts) is gone.

Plus Morgardee if that counts (and my special grudge match CAW just for you ;D).
Hey Mike, what levels are we setting these guys at? Right now I'm trying to finish GM mode because as it stands these guys are all still 38. Moves sets and intros are finished but they are still wimps.
If we don't have 30 I have a few comic book guys like Spiderman, Joker, Supperman, George W Bush,etc...

We'll have 30.
And I'm averaging the guys around 5'10-6'1 at about 76-85, with the odd one higher (Storm Shadow).
I should be able to 'up' the numbers for yours at the meet.
We'll have 30. I finished another one this morning: Monkeywrench.
Stop making Cobras!
;-)
For each Cobra you make, make a Joe.... it evens things out.
We're ahead on Cobras now.
I've updated the FIRST post in this thread with the list.
Raps, make you - it's funnier that way. I made me, Loop always makes him, etc. etc.
I don't follow JCW - which is why I put some very basic rules on which CAWs will be permitted in the tourny! ;-)

Since you're actually Deadshots assistant, I assume he wouldn't mind watching your items for you for awhile. Just the same as I'm sure you wouldn't mind watching his if he wanted to look around. ;-)

So.... Tele-Viper (1985) has been added.
Making our total characters so far at 20.
I've started work on 4 more of them.

Exactly what happened when I tried to take a pic of CC. "I" being the opperative word. I'm sure Tank Girl can figure it out.
I'm not super happy with my Croc Master Mike, beyond the skin colour. I'm willing to bet that yours is better. Then again, the file card says this is a totally different Croc Master from the first one. Why settle for only one?

I just completed a Big Brawler. His opening alone is worth seeing this guy "come out".
But for the LOVE of GOD do NOT let him get you in his "Finisher". You might lose more than the match if you know what I'm saying.
I may do up a Mutt and maybe a Sure Fire tonight as well. We need jobbers too.

My card contains Raptor, Ripcord, Surefire, Brawler and Me. Brawler is a little under pointed, but maybe it's better that way.
