Nope. He has a grand total of five posts, at least one fifth of which was made so that krotomo would play a game with him.

Sweet, right now we have a very nice power-of-2 number of people signed up.
1. Bmwsu
2. Darvince
3. Silver
4. atvelonis
5. soccerboy
6. shos
7. Teo
8. Jorster
Normally in a tournament I would create a seeding system based on how well each person is expected to do, but there's not really any standouts here on either end so I'll probably just create the setup completely randomly.
Also, perhaps to remove bias, I shouldn't let it be known who is competing against who until after each round is already over, that way judgement is completely fair.
So what I'll do is make the field, then eventually I'll get around to making the little competitions, and at that point I'll PM the contestants what they're to do, they'll PM me back their entry and then I'll start the polls. Although Livio can see who votes in the polls, I can't see that or police it and it would be too much trouble to get him involved, so officially I encourage contestants to vote for themselves.
Oh, well what do you know, I have randomly generated the tournament setup, and also come up with 4 mini-competitions for the first round. So I guess I'll be sending those out now.
You are to send your entries as replies to my Private Message, do not post them on here

If anyone in it decides that they're never going to show up again or chooses to withdraw from participation, then you can serve as a replacement.
I think this was probably about the best case scenario as far as participation goes. You always want to land on a power of 2 so that you can have clean 1v1 matches the whole way without having players sit out a round. I doubt we'd be able to get 16 people on board, so you can't really do any better than 8 people. Plus you would be the clear favorite if you were in this. Without you, though, this is a pretty level playing field.
If this goes well perhaps we'll have to try it again. But at the same time I struggle coming up with good original ideas for one-post-roundish stuff, so if there is a next time I might take suggestions for these things.

No official time limit, just don't take so long that I feel like I need to remind you of your duties. Ideally it would be nice to have everything in by 3 days, but I don't know how this will actually work out

And everyone's entries are in, so let it begin.
Remember that identities of entrants (specifically what round each person is playing in, what entry is theirs) is supposed to be unknown until the conclusion of the entire first round, to eliminate any potential bias. Oh, and you are encouraged to vote for yourself, because if you don't, your opponent might vote for themselves giving them an advantage.
Round 1 Match 1: Write a relatively short love letter to D52
Player 1: Quote: Hey D52,
You. Me. Pizza. Pokemon.
-[Player 1] <3
Player 2: Quote: Dear D52,
I love you like the summers day loves the moon, like fat children love ice cream. Like love loves love. Also, I love you.
Love, [Player 2]
Also, for the record the last poll's results were as follows:

blehj, neither were very good. I think two was slightly better. Also my guess it that it is Soccer and Jorster right now. If I'm right, you guys suck yo | | Quirvy |

Also, it's easy for someone to be critical of someone else's work when they don't have to do that. (Ex: Sports fans talking about how terrible a certain player is)
We only have 8 votes right now, but I'll probably end this tomorrow and start a new poll.

Player 3 advances.
Match 3: "You must try to convince us that you are the real Livio and not just a bot pretending to be him. "
'Player 5' said: Hey, this puts me at a disadvantage because everyone is already convinced I'm a bot!
'Player 6' said: Hey guys!
what's up?
...
I agree.
lol
That's cool.
I should probably be doing homework.
All these - are absolutely not my words! But, some of you may think it is. That is because I AM LIVIO!! and that above is a bot impersonating me. I am much more elegant, delicate, stupid, and much more. I should be doing homework tho >_>;;
So, in order to prove that I am Livio, I shall tell you this: Haily is beautiful!! AHAHAHA!!! nobody would say that other than me, right?!?! YES YES YES YESZ!!! and now in order to prove that I am not a bot, I shall tell you something funny!! a bot would never do that because they don't have humor!! YESZ ITLL WORK here it is: Haily is beautiful!!!!
get it? get it? yaaaaaaaaaaay
