Portland Tecmo Super Bowl Championship

Saturday, Jan 27, Laurelwood Brewing, 5115 NE Sandy Blvd. 11 am

The return to the Rose City. This time bigger, stronger, BOLDER.

 

Logic behind the name:

 

1) J.J. Birden is a Tecmo Legend that hailed from NE Portland and starred for the Oregon Ducks

2) Portland Tecmo Legend Tailback King constantly struggles with his desire to compete within the structure of Tecmo Tournaments and his need to honor #39 Johnny J for the Cards. It's a burden for him, or a Birden if you will.

3) Winning a game cause of some JJ (jumping jackass) bullshit leaves the winning player a burden, which often results in the Tecmo Gods evening things out later

 

Things to look forward to in this tournament:

 

1) Momentum carried over from Johnny Johnson in the Beaver, which had an endless amount of memorable matchups and introduced us to several new players on the scene.

2) Co-Organization from Portland native and reigning Seattle champ Ptitteri, who has been organizing a small Portland Tecmo tourney for several years.

3) The further evolution of TBK, who continues to mold his game beyond relying on Johnny Johnson's hidden stats.

4) Gripsmoke not boning out.

5) Improved format from last year's PDX throwdown.

6) Some good-ass fucking microbrew FLOWIN

7) The usual Pacific Northwest Tecmo shenanigans

 

Chime in on the BOARD to get your name on the LIST.

 

1. D.T. (The Boss)

2. Ptitteri (The Enforcer)

3. Gripsmoke (The OG)

4. TBK (The King)

5. InvaderStar (The Elusive One)

6. Tick (The Nature Boy)

7. Kamphuna (The Sage)

8. BWagg (The Donkey)

9. Shermy80 (The Shutdown Corner)

10. JBrooks (The Future)

11. D Money (The Panda)

12. Jake the Snake (The Killer)

13. Flyin Ryan (The Bomber)

14. RPW44 (The Coug)

15. Lefty Locey (The Cheerleader)

16. The Great North Wes (The Dude)

17. Fairf (The QB)???

18. WHO ELSE??? 

 

Format: 

 

The main Championship deciding tournament will closely resemble PNW tourneys past. A regular season with 8 players progressing to a double-elimination playoff. The player matchups in the regular season will be pre-determined to keep the games rolling, unlike previous tourneys. This worked very well in Seattle for maximum action! We barely had time to sip our Microbrews...

 

In addition to the regular competition, there will also be a soccer inspired KNOCKOUT tourney going on simultaneously where player matchups are randomly assigned. These games will take place on a special rom I will be compiling for the tournament. We will be drafting up teams from this rom at the beginning of the day and rolling with them throughout the KNOCKOUT competition. A 2nd chance for glory! A 2nd chance for $$$.

 

Keep it here to find more information regarding this rom and the payout distribution in the coming weeks.

 

PORTLAND

Is this still a thing? I need to know because herring needs to be purchased at least a month in advance in order to have enough ripening time at room temperature to get a proper herring redolence.

I can.make it, thanks to @Tick for transport, so he should be there as well.

Welp, I just found out I can't make it. It's the one day of the year where the Conservatory where we take our Santa pics is open for that kind of business. GL to all.

Hey everyone! Long time no post. Just been a little too busy to make this tournament happen, but I still want to battle on the 8-bit gridiron with you fools in the Rose City. We're gonna regroup, reload, and try to make it happen another time. Tentative date: Jan 27. I'll be in touch with yas.

We're gonna regroup, reload, and try to make it at Tundra Bowl on Jan 27. I'll be in touch with yas about travel arrangements.

 

Edited for accuracy. Or wishful thinking. Bring that PNW power to the Tundra.

We got a maybe from FAIRF! Uh oh... So I updated this roster with everyone I've heard from. Lookin pretty STRONG all of a sudden. JBrooks is not the shifty #21 for Cincy, it's Peter's son!... Yeah if all of these dudes are in the building, this is gonna be red hot, but I expect SEVERAL more to be added to the mix before we kick this bitch off. BRING IT TO BRIDGETOWN.

I got a couple of Tecmo legends who say they gonna roll with me, but I ain't even mentioning they're names till they can prove to me they're off of work that day.....It should be easier since the Tourney is in f*cc!n PORTLAND........but ya never can tell the flakeyness of a Tecmo Legend......hell, ask Gripsmoke!!!!!!!!  :)

More legends in the mix?? I am FIRED UP. I encourage everyone who is thinking about coming to this to chime in or get at me. I know we are a flaky bunch so the format will be designed with malleability in mind, but an idea of who all is a potential factor will be very useful in the planning to make this as awesome of a tourney as possible!
