The Next ME Sports Tournament

[Sleepy Ranger]

I thought it over and I have finally come to a decision. Since I'm not really a fan of hockey it won't be that. My apologies to all who voted for it. Now then, after putting a bit of thought in the matter, having a look at available consoles, games, my knowledge and liking of the sport I have made a final list of sports from you to choose of.

Football - Fifa 2006 (PS2) [if you want an encore tournament]
Baseball - All-Star Baseball 2001 (N64) [Rosters won't matter, the game would make a good tourney]
Boxing - Knockout Kings 2000 (N64) [I'm not so sure about this but its your call]
American Football - Madden NFL 2002 (N64) [Odds are I'll be getting the new one for the PS2 soon, so if this is picked I'll be doing the matches on the PS2 version.]
Basketball - NBA Live 2000 (N64) [Odds are I'll be getting the new one for the PS2 soon, so if this is picked I'll be doing the matches on the PS2 version.]
Cricket - Cricket 2005 (PS2) [Well I don't really think anyone other than Saucepanman will vote for this but have at it]
Formula 1 - F1 2005 (PS2) [Added in late due to my forgetfulness]

Alright people thats the lot of it. Go ahead and make your choice and I'll do the rest. Lets hope we get some good sporting in my dear ladies and gentlemen.

A shame it did not become Hockey, that would have been fun.

Since I proberbly will not be able to contribute to this sports turnament I will not vote.

If not football againg then I think Boxing would be awesome on so many levels.

[Glirdan]

I was really excited to see Hockey, but, in the end, it's up to you.

Hmmm....It'd be cool to have an encore tournament.

But, I think I'd have to go with...

++Tennis

I've played it before (both in RL and the Mario version) and it's awsome!! :D

Edit - It's ok Sleepy, I'll go with

--Tennis (hopefully for now)
++Boxing

[Sleepy Ranger]

Argh! Sorry Glirdy but I just realized that matches in Mario Tennis can not be simmed. I'll look around for another tennis game but till then its off the table. My bad.

[Roa_Aoife]

American Football!!!! The season can continue!

Of course, I'll be happy with anything but basket ball.

[Orominuialwen]

++Basketball

I like both football and basketball, but I think basketball is better suited to a tournament.

[narfforc]

BOXING, I would love to see Sauron take a real beating from Helm Hammerhand, and have to retire due to a cut above The Eye

[Morai]

Hmm...great now I'm divided between three sports. Baseball is my fave to watch, but alas I think American Football would be much more interesting. (The Reffs are being paid!!!) ;)

[THE Ka]

Cricket my dear!

~*~Cricket (<--- I like to talor to my own creative calling, so, no '+'s from me for now on.)

After watching The Young Ones non-stop for a week now, I just find cricket wonderfully well suited for a tournament.

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Cricket has rules???

Why spoil it with rules???

Well, I have read of the rules, but I gave it up and read cosmology instead, much easier you see. :D

(No offence to the Brits and everyone else who came from countries where the sport took root.)

++The Saucepan Man

No . . . wait!

++Krikkit

[The Saucepan Man]

I would vote for Cricket, but fear that it will be of only minority interest here.

Boxing might be interesting. I can't stand the sport myself, but bouts between Middle-earth characters would make interesting reading. How would a championship be organised?

Whatever happened to Formula 1? That would be my favoured option.

Cricket is currently second in total votes...

Boxing might be interesting. I can't stand the sport myself, but bouts between Middle-earth characters would make interesting reading. How would a championship be organised?

I'd say 32 boxers, 1 on 1, elimination style till we have a king to crown.

Whatever happened to Formula 1? That would be my favoured option.

Ack! I knew I was forgetting something, thanks for reminding me! :)

American Football - 2 (I took the liberty of adding your vote here Morai)
Aye, and I think that would have probably been my vote anyways. As for the mysterious 3rd sport, I really don't remember what it was. :o

[Formendacil]

Well, if hockey is gone...

then let's go all British, and go with cricket, wot.

++ Cricket

Jolly good!

(And my sincere apologies to all those of a British persuasion.)

[Meneltarmacil]

Probably the most popular sport in my country...

++American Football

The Orcs and Dwarves should do well there.

[Alcarillo]

++American Football

Can't let cricket win!

[The Saucepan Man]

How about Rugby? It's rather like American Football, save without all the breaks for commercials and the players are man enough not to have to wear a full suit of bodyarmour. :p

Seriously ...

American Football ...?

Surely we can't have a game where the "world" championship is played only by one nation ... :eek: ;)

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

How about Rugby? It's rather like American Football, save without all the breaks for commercials and the players are man enough not to have to wear a full suit of bodyarmour. :p (Sauce)I agree. We want to hear the bones cracking! :D

On another note, I would like to have Formula 1, too, if there are explosions involved. :smokin:

++Formula 1 (with explosions)

[Farael]

Well, I'm living in the country of hockey and yet my favourite sport is....

American Football

If I get to join the BD team, can I PLEASE be Strong Safety? Polamalu style... I already have the hair going, but it's not curly... and I'm not a bench-pressing monster.... but still, I wanna be safety!!

Formula 1 with Crashes would be interesting but... I rather take football.

By the way, is there still interest for a Hockey tournament? if Sleepy doesn't mind, I could do it after the next tournament is over.

No love, Nilpaurion changed his vote from cricket to F1 hence its 3 instead of 4.

[Oddwen]

What, no poker?

[Sleepy Ranger]

What, no poker?

You get me a poker game that allows simulation and I'll give you a ME Poker tournament. Anyway I'm sorry about the delay in the start of the game but due to the party (which was AWESOME!) I couldn't do anything.

Since I must tear open the presents now I doubt I will do anything yet. So expect the tournament tomorrow.

[Elu Ancalime]

Hee hee hee. Poker is always the Odd wen out when it comes to sports.

I have decided we shall have a ME punning contest instead. I hope you are all ready for some severe loss of intelligence. :)

[Elu Ancalime]

Well, that should be pun.
