Shoutouts time!

Sinz - it was great playin ya! you got a great fox and a **** good falcon. Sorry our crew match went so poorly, like I said, this is these guys' first tourney, so at least they tried :laugh: . Hope I at least proved myself though as a link player.

Nicholai - H O L Y - S H ! T... so many characters and your proficient with them all, its insane, Im glad I had the chance to play you, I never beat you but the last game we got in was great the Marth vs Link. I really need to learn some new chars to play.

Alpha - Im not sure if that was you who beat me in the finals on our bracket, but the guy I played was named alpha something. But anyways, you have a great marth! Marths sword range on link is devistating, so I had to resort to just projectilies, which is annoying but all I could think at the time. Hope to play you again in the future.

ZMan - I dont think I had the opportunity to play against you, I saw you playing team games on the 3rd TV but I didnt know who you were so I wasnt able to play you or talk to ya. Sorry I missed you.

Enix_Moogle - Grats on first man!!!!! I missed the chance to play you too, sux :(!

As far as the 2v2s went, we were to late to sign up, it sucked, otherwise we would have stayed longer, but we wanted to get some LAN time in too, so great games everyone, including the people I forgot to mention. Hope I repped enough for southern CO, and my link. My team tried but sadly they are all still "noobish" Im trying to teach em :(.

[Sinz]

Textbook- It was awesome playing you. I never had played a Link that good.

Nicholai- NM is getting alot better huh?

Vagalone-Sorry that I can't spell your name but H O L Y B A L L P O I N T B A N A N A!You have the most amazing Samus I have ever played!

Enix- Dude, your just too good right now, your Ganon was the fastest I have ever seen. The up b use was really good too.

Chris of STARS- dude even though we only had 1 match it was a good one.

Nack- how is my reflector dashing?


2v2 ABS and ABP won by far. Thy did not lose a single match. It was really funny hearing Chad go ABS IS THE BEASTLIEST BEAST OF ALL BEASTS!

great tourney!

[ZMan]

My shout outs:

Sinz- for doing an MM with me and giving me more expericence fighting Foxes and giving me healthy competition for best Roy in NM.

Chris of STARS- for being a Roy user >.>

ROFL at ArticCrac for coming and yelling "We need team Ladymen" while we were playing Mario Kart DS.

It was nice meeting Erich and Alphabravo and everyone else there. Keep it cool to everyone I played and stuff.

No thanks to Salty for missing out on a great tourny and being a flacker,


And my brother for taking me to the tourny. ^.^

[allboutpeach]

Hey chad, guess what

[AllBoutSheik]

zomg what?

[allboutpeach]

we won. lawlerskates..

[South_Paw]

Hellz yeah! Chucky's Ganon is TOOO good!

[ChaosTheory]

Chucky for top tier

Az=toooo good

[Erich]

Wow, Enix Moogle seems to be quite popular. He did excellent in 1v1, but in the 2v2's, ABP and ABS completely destroyed him in the finals, the last round they did with them in the finals they two stocked his team. Their first matches in the prelimanaries were absolutely amazing. They were some of the most intense matches I have ever seen, because all three of the rounds were down to the wire, the last stock of everybody.

Good playing to everybody. Sorry I didn't get the chance to play you guys, but hey, I watched you guys play, but we'll just have to wait until the next tourney for me to play you guys in the actual tourney.

[ZMan]

Yo Erich when are youguys holding your next tourny?

[NicholaiGinovaef]

Sinz: You've gotten much better but you waveshine with Fox like a mother f.u.c.k.e.r. Half of the things you do don't help; it's pointless to do moves like that when 90% of the time you don't hit the other person. It looks more like a show to me. But you've gotten better, have to give you that much.

AlphaBravo: I think I've seen the most improvement out of you. Mad props. Your Marth kept up with mine but I think my Samus is what got you. LoL. All you need is a few improvements here and there and I'm sure you'll own up NM.

Erich: I didn't get to play you. Oh, well. Maybe next time.

Textbook: Thanks for the matches. You have a pretty good Link to keep up with my Marth. I'm positive you could have kept up with me on those other matches but maybe things just weren't flying right. One thing though, I think you should try picking up some other characters too (Just a thought). You're a good player and I hope to play you again sometime soon. Maybe we can come up to Colorado for a tournament.

Enix: Man, what can I say? Your Ganon is insane. Unfortunately, I didn't get to fight him. LoL. And I wanted to fight you again in the finals but my brother took me out... That *******... LoL. ALSO, Sorry about not getting to play you again after the tourney!! I really wanted to play you but everybody else but me and Chris wanted to go to the mall and sightsee rather than play smash. Majority seemed to have won. Again, sorry about not getting to play you. Maybe at OC.

V3RMILLION: You son of a b.i.t.c.h. How dare you take out your younger brother two matches before the finals!! You made me get fourth. That's a new low for me... First time I haven't placed in top three. Oh, well. Congrats on second. I LOVE YOU BIG BRO!

Arctic: Again, I only get to play you like once per tournament. Sorry for not getting to play with you guys after the tourney. But you guys should come down to a tourney over here. I think we are having one at the end of July.

Thanks everyone for the great time.

Wow, Enix Moogle seems to be quite popular. He did excellent in 1v1, but in the 2v2's, ABP and ABS completely destroyed him, the last round they did with them in the finals they two stocked his team.

Don't think that ABS and ABP are the s.h.i.t. just because they beat Enix Moogle in teams.

[Taj278]

Hahahaha... GJ Chuckie, sorry I didn't help you out on the phone. I was in the middle of organized WSG with the guild I'm trying out for. Grats on 1st. New Mexico's fate is sealed. Shadowclaw.w1n may have to come down there and bring some pain. How much did 1st place get?

[Alphabravo]

ZMan, these were the placings for SSBM.

1v1
1st: Enix Moogle
2nd: Vermillion
3rd: Vangalon
4th: Nicholai Ginovaef
5th: Arctic Drac
5th: Chris of Starz
5th: Alphabravo
5th: JBroo

There were 4 5th place finishes because of the way Jason set up the bracket. As far as any one else who placed, I'm sorry, but I don't have the bracket.

2v2
1st: Team "Cool Kidz" (AllBoutShiek, AllBoutPeach)
2nd: Team "Hearts" (Enix Moogle, YukiTanuki)
3rd: Team "2Fast" (Arctic Drac, Sonny)
4th: Team "FoxHound" (Alphabravo, Erich)
4th: Team "A** Bunny" (Jenguin, Garret)

Feel free to update the first post ZMan with that information.

Nicholai: I agree with you Nicholai, I picked Marth the first round against your Marth. You then beat me and switched to Samus for the second round. I stupidly picked Falco instead of just sticking with Marth. It was because of this stupid mistake that you 4 stocked me, oh well; I feel did good at this tourney. Also, if you could, can you give me some advice on my Marth; I would greatly appreciate it if you PM me with some advice.

Textbook Ninja: I am the one you faced in the finals of our bracket Textbook; your Link is really good, but it's just like you said, Marth has too much range on Link.

Vangalon: Man, your Samus is insane, way better than mine. Even though I lost against you I learned so much from your Samus that I hope to apply to my playstyle.

Congratulations to my crew members ABP and ABS. You guys raped in teams, LOL, where was the competition.

Hope to play all of you again!

[ZMan]

Tahnks for the info Alpha! *updates*

[Enix_Moogle]

we won. lawlerskates..

Nice job man, even though I was pissed to lose to you guys, I really just wanted to win for Yuki, she hated losing to you guys the first time and hated your strategy more then I did, but I'll give you props, you guys are better then expected.

Sorry Michelle! *tear*


Enix: Man, what can I say? Your Ganon is insane. Unfortunately, I didn't get to fight him. LoL. And I wanted to fight you again in the finals but my brother took me out... That *******... LoL. ALSO, Sorry about not getting to play you again after the tourney!! I really wanted to play you but everybody else but me and Chris wanted to go to the mall and sightsee rather than play smash. Majority seemed to have won. Again, sorry about not getting to play you. Maybe at OC.

Don't think that ABS and ABP are the s.h.i.t. just because they beat Enix Moogle in teams.

Yeah man, I knew you wanted to play me so I figured thats what happened. Dont worry about it, just come with Artic and Yuki to OC 2.

I gotta go to work though, so I'll give out my shoutouts later. I just got home like 30 minutes ago.

Hahahaha... GJ Chuckie, sorry I didn't help you out on the phone. I was in the middle of organized WSG with the guild I'm trying out for. Grats on 1st. New Mexico's fate is sealed. Shadowclaw.w1n may have to come down there and bring some pain. How much did 1st place get?

Thanks man, ill keep that in mind next time. I got 230 for singles and 35 for me and Michelle on teams. Teams would have been alot more, but it took to long to get started, not as bad as what happened in Utah, but basically the same thing.

[allboutpeach]

enix ur freaking amazing with ganon. I was glad i got to play u after. You learned from ur mistakes way fast and i was nearly at a lost when i played you good job man

[Enix_Moogle]

Shout outs:

Artic - Just to much fun to hang out with, and crazy hilarious. On the bus back from Alburqurque to Phoenix, I saw this large scary looking women and I just wish you would have been there so I could have said, "your that". LOLZ Cant wait till your power and Trevyn's powers combine at OC2. Im almost certain people will die from laughter. Oh yeah and next time, dont become Juan., <3.

Yuki - Man, I love you, your to pretty, your to cute, your too funny and seeing you beat up on Artic just makes my day. Also, those drawings are amazing, I cant wait untill you unveil some of them. Im just wondering what i'll get next time we hang out. First it was <3's then it was hugs, and this time it was Kisses, cmon, you know you love me. Oh and I'm so saving up to make sure I can visit you in Japan. So yeah, super <3's.

P.S. Dont forget about your fox, just be more technical and you'll be owning everyone. Rush was ****en scared. You sooooo had him.

Vermillion - man, for a second I thought I was going to lose 1st to you. I hate shieks, and yours is good. I should have had faith in Ganon in our first finals match. Its to bad we never got to hang out, would have been fun playing you some more.

Nicholai - I really wanted to play you with Ganon, I sorta regret going Marth on you now. I know you tried to chill with us and thats cool, your peach was good, but I went Marth cause for some reason I thought you played Shiek too. I also wanted to try Ganon against your Samus; I saw your samus takin some names through out the whole tournament it looked crazy.

Chris of Starz - Crazy *** Roy, I loved it, I play Roy every now and then, but not as good as that. I saw you spike with the forward B a few times. Sexy!

Rush - I can't believe you beat Yuki, What a jerk, it was so close, be worried next time, she'll get you back.

AllBoutPeach - Man, your peach gave me such a hard time in our first match, I figured it out by the second match, but I think if we had a third you could have mixed it up some more. I think we could both get better if we spent a few hours just playing each other.

Sinz - I know your better then how you did against me, because every now and then you would do something with Falcon that I just thought was impressive. If we play again I imagine you'll have improved a crazy amount. Your Fox is really more flashy then it is good, but I bet with more time and practice you'll have a good Fox.

Vangalon - You had a smart Samus, you should have been with Nick in getting people to play Smash on Sunday. I wanted some more matches with you.

ZMan - I think I gave you my number, so if your ever in phoenix, let me know, will hook you up with smashers to play, no problem. I never got to play you at the tournament though.

To everybody else that just came up to me and said I had a crazy Ganon, thanks! ^_^ I will remember that when I'm getting emo about how annoying it is to play Ganon. Dont worry though, Ganon 4 Life. LOL

Awesome tournament Erich!

[Erich]

Thanks Enix. You did really well in it. I hope to be able to play at one of the upcoming tourneys. I like your Marth in 1v1's, it was really good.

Don't worry Nicholai, I don't think ABP and ABS are the ****. I know that they wouldn't do AS good in the 1v1's, they just work really well in a team. Now for some shoutouts:

Sinz: Enix and Nicholai are right, your Fox is very flashy, but then again Enix and Nicholai, Sinz is still trying to incorporate this stuff. When I play him, however, you guys are right, he'll abuse it. Just a little improvement Sinz, and you'll be at the top.

Alphabravo: YES!!! I knew you had it in you! You placed fifth man, excellent, excellent job! Your Marth, as I have been telling you, is really, really good and I've learned a few things on my Marth watching yours. And your Samus is still pretty good, even though you didn't get much of a chance to show it off, but your Marth is better. Once again, NICE JOB.

ABP and ABS- Once again, nice job to you too guys. You did excellent. You took 1st place in the teams match, and that's a BIG accomplishment for NM. We are slowly getting better, and this shows it. Good job, once again. You represented NM like it should be.

Nicholai-UNFRREAKIN'FORTUNATELY, I didn't get to play you, and this is like the first tourney ever that it's happened. Ah well...Next time. Probably later this summer.

Chris of Stars-You've improved, I would have DEFINITELY liked to play you. But like I said, next time. Don't worry, next time...

Arctic-Same with you. We did do some team matches though. Nice job on those.

Vermillion-Congrats on 2nd. Nice job. I need to play you again as well. But like I said, as soon as the next tourney comes, it'll happen. See you then!

Enix-... ... ... ... ...Wow! You're good. You have an insane almost everything! Your Marth is really good, and your Ganon was crazy too! I didn't get to play you either, except for the teams, which we didn't do so hot in. Oh well, I'm looking forward to the next time.

Colorado crew- You guys aren't half bad. You just need some work, but that's why you've got a good tutor, Textbook Ninja. Keep it up, and show us what you've learned at the next tourney, I'll most definitely be looking forward to it. Next tourney guys!

Textbook Ninja-Wow, you're pretty good. You have a good Link man, but I didn't get to play you. You gave ABP a hard time with it, and to do that with Link...yea. Nice job, and I'm looking forward to the next one.

Good job to everybody who attended. I hope to be able to get in some matches with you guys at the next one, which I hope will be soon. Me and Sinz will start planning it soon. We'll probably hold it two months or so, so that leaves everyone plenty of time to practice. Good luck everyone, and I'll see you later!

Oh and Nicholai, Sinz can drive now, so we may be able to go to some tourneys down there in El Paso now. Hope to see you at one! I might see you at OC2 as well...hopefully...

[ZMan]

Enix- you didn't give me your number. But If I'm ever in Pheonix I'll try to play you. :)

[Enix_Moogle]

Enix- you didn't give me your number. But If I'm ever in Pheonix I'll try to play you. :)

Must of been thinking of someone else, my apologies. The same can apply to you though, We always love chilling with new smashers.

[Taj278]

****, I should've got the day off of work and went. :( Oh well, maybe next time.

[Erich]

Taj?!? Wow, it would have been amazing to see you there! You should come sometime, I'd love to play you, I could learn something. This was a big event too. Most of the tourneys in NM aren't too big and bad, but if there's ever another HUGE one like this one, then I'll PM you. Sound good? Hope to talk to you in the future.

[Alphabravo]

Alphabravo: YES!!! I knew you had it in you! You placed fifth man, excellent, excellent job! Your Marth, as I have been telling you, is really, really good and I've learned a few things on my Marth watching yours. And your Samus is still pretty good, even though you didn't get much of a chance to show it off, but your Marth is better. Once again, NICE JOB.

Thanks Erich, but 5th place isn't really that big of a deal. I never used Samus in the tournament because I didn't feel like picking her. I instead just stuck with Marth the whole time. Anyways, I was sooooo close to finals of the winner's bracket. I only had to win one more time. Unfortunately, I was up against Vangalon and lost. I lost to Nicholai in the loser's bracket and had to settle for 5th place. We did pretty good in teams though, but we could have done sooooo much better. What hurt us is the fact that you were very rusty because you hadn't played smash in a while. We also need to find our team combination, we did best with Falco and Marth, in my opinion.

****, I should've got the day off of work and went. Oh well, maybe next time.

You should come next time Taj, I would learn alot from playing you in a few matches.

[Erich]

Yea, our teams were definitely best with Falco and Marth. I was rusty, AND I didn't enter the 1v1 tourney. Ah well...such is life. At the next tourney, I swear I'll be there, wouldn't miss it.

Alpha, I thought fifth was good, BECAUSE AND ONLY BECAUSE at any big tourney anywhere NM's never placed. NEVER. You got fifth, and that isn't as good as we could have, that is very true, but it does show that NM is improving. That was my point; we are improving.

[AllBoutSheik]

Don't think that ABS and ABP are the s.h.i.t. just because they beat Enix Moogle in teams. [/color][/QUOTE]

Well, i do think we did pretty darn good. And we know we arent the best in 1v1, thats why you combine the suckage and it works. If you guys got a team that wants to go, we aint scurred.
Didnt get to play you once again though, maybe next time.

my quote fails btw.

[Erich]

Nice to see you posting again ABS, even if it is occasionally. I'll give you and ABP a call sometime soon, we can do something. Sound good?

[ZMan]

One more thing, Erich you kind of look like Oro.

[AllBoutSheik]

sounds good erich. paul and everett can come to

[AllBoutSheik]

whats nicholai's real name

[NicholaiGinovaef]

Nicholai is my real name.

[South_Paw]

Lol, hey, play team Moogle-Paw... they'll MM you, they're pretty good too, lol.

[Erich]

Yea, his name IS Nicholai, pretty cool, eh? South Paw, eh? Looks like NM is getting quite a bit of attention lately. COOL!!!!

[Textbook Ninja]

Yay for NM, you guys had a great attitude about everything. Makes the fun of the game more noticable than the competative side, thats rare these days. Ecspecially in CO... geeze, everyone complaining about ranking and who beat who... haha. Hope to see you all again some other time. Hopefully my link will be way better by then too, I know I can improve a whole heck of alot.

[Sinz]

Nicholai is my real name.
At the first tourney that we met you told me ur real name.... Your secret is safe with me.

[Sinz]

Oh and Nicholai, Sinz can drive now, so we may be able to go to some tourneys down there in El Paso now. Hope to see you at one! I might see you at OC2 as well...hopefully...

Uh Erich, I can't drive yet. I don't have enough hours, my sister always has the car that I am insured on. SO, yea it is kinda hard to get hours.

[ZMan]

NO double posting Sinz. :p

I wonder if we can get any pros to come to NM, hmmm...

[Sinz]

Hmm... Taj counts as a pro.

[ZMan]

Right... I wonder if we can get Forward to come as well.

[Sinz]

Zman, your hair bugged mehe entire time. Sorry, but I am kinda wanting you to cut it short and get contacts and use gel for a short spiked look. No offense, but I think that would look better.
