Shoutouts

Staff and TOs
Andrew Wu and ReadyForce - Thanks for sponsoring the event! Andrew, you were very accommodating. Even though it was super busy, you helped us so much.

Scar - Props to you for not playing in order to ensure that the stream went well

Sheridan - You held it down with brackets. congrats on beating Lord. Really risky, but awesome rest to clutch it.

Ahmad/Julian/Violence - Didn't get to talk to you guys much, but thanks for running the bracket pools.
(PewPewU/L_) - Thanks for also running pools

Pools
EZ - Your peach had some moves. Remember to roll less and think more! Don't be intimidated

Isis - I really wanted the win against you since you beat me at Alameda. It was unfortunate that you dropped your CGs, but I can tell you'll be ready next time.

Kelan - Congrats on beating Choknater in winners. Falcon vs. Sheik is very cruel

Choknater - I didn't want to play your ICs at all today. I was fortunate

Truman - You've gotten alot better, just don't SD. I was sad that you lost to Isis in game 1

Bracket
PewPewU - Why are you so good? I can kind of see the moments in which you're outthinking me now. You're so clever and intelligent. I will adjust and not get tippered out of my UP+B recoveries

HugS - You'll get me next time. It was good seeing you again.

SilentSpectre - =(. We'll have a session going to get you up to par with the Sheik matchup. Glad to see you got the SDI down on the jab reset

Zhu - You are so consistent. It's aggravating to play you because you play so smart and it's hard to find openings. Next time, I'll get you.

Others (Norcal)
Dajuan/PewPewU - You guys are the bros, thanks for hosting me and giving me rides throughout the weekend. Kevin - tell your parents thanks!

HMW - Good stuff, making top 8. Really impressed with your mentality at this tournament

Phil - Didn't get to interact too much, but you are always a pleasure to see

Darrell - tough that you couldn't make it to day 2. Thanks for always being encouraging and being a homie

Ky/The___cheese - You guys have stepped it up much more since I left. good stuff

Ycz6 - thanks for recording and that was a sick nasty combo to get out of pools

Doyoung - always a pleasure

Bizzarro - man, you've styled on some people. It's nuts

Tang - always good to see you

L_ - good stuff beating darrell x2

Jackie/Luis - always awesome to see you guys. hopefully we get more time together in 2 weeks!

Socal
Sung - good stuff beating dajuan. I always thought your falco was your best character and it was awesome to see you stick to one character for a tournament

J666 - so many heartbreakers. just need a little more push and you've got this!

MacD - "casuals"

Alan - always great to see you

Washington
Silent Wolf - too good man. It was awesome to see you guys in norcal. next time we'll mm

C!Z - a pleasant surprise to see you. Hopefully, we can work on the sheik matchup

I probably forgot some people, so please forgive me

 

[Silent Wolf]

GGs everyone. Always a good time in california. Yo, you should put character heads next to names, it looks so much more legit that way

 

[Djent]

HMW over Shroomed?!?

Did NOT see that coming, but good ****.

 

[MountainGoat]

Did Mango go all Marth?

 

[TaFoKiNtS]

I always forget where the heads are. Can someone refer me to the tags?

 

[metroid1117]

I always forget where the heads are. Can someone refer me to the tags?

It's typically :[character]melee:, so Fox would be foxmelee (with colons around it). You can also click on the "Smiles" button and scroll through until you see them.

 

[Djent]

Did Mango go all Marth?

Indeed he did, the commentators said so in WF and he didn't switch in GF according to SRK's matchlogs.

 

[GKInfinity]

Edit:

[Previously the list of complete results. Now in the OP.]

 

[SUNG666]

I'm posting on facebook and smashboards (imo everyone should still be using smashboards...)

Thanks for puttin this together, Andrew Wu.
Thanks to all the TOs, pool captains, and commentators ya did a good job.
Thanks to everyone who brought setups, everyone overlooks yall but I always appreciate it and I hope you bring them to every tournament.

-=POOLS=-
=Crispy Tacoz - You got me with a ton of laser cape -> fair approaches that was pretty good. Try to grab more to get combo dmg.
=Sheen - Pretty close ya had some good moments and you make use of weird situations really well. I feel like everytime it was awkward you always hit me first.
=DP - You're super good. AND you beat germ twice that's legit. Great platform work you mixed me up a lot with them.
=Germ - I didn't play you but you had some sick combos on DP.

-=BRACKET=-
=Shroomed - You're like my favorite norcal smasher. I just think you're really cool. Thanks for the advice at the end but I think I'll mess around with a lot of different characters still for now or just use falco I'm not sure.
=Silent Wolf - I love technical foxes you're a great player for anyone to play with.
=SFAT - So good! Gotta study up. Always give the fist pound before our sets, all about the meleeship.

-=OTHER=-
=Phil - My other favorite norcal smasher. <- That's you.
=Mooninite - My other OTHER favorite norcal smasher. I never sandbag. Just know that you're pretty good only because you have a cool name.
=Stab - Sorry I didn't do the teams MM, I didn't want to go sheik and I was pretty unconfident about my falco in teams. And also for not hangin out with ya that much but there was just too many people to hang out with. I'd be down to watch anime on skype with combofest again haha.
=CrimsonBlur - Thanks for havin my back the whole time. But I really did try my best against the foxes but no amount of fire could have won me those sets, there's just something that was fundamentally wrong with how I played them. Too bad we couldn't see you trounce boback.
=Toph - Whatever happened to playing shirtless? I still don't understand that strategy haha
=J666 - You have amazing game sense. I have absolutely no idea how you win with such little knowledge, and you make it look easy (to me). I always feel like you could beat anyone. Freakin crazy guy.
=Torrence - Punch em twice and make em spill their ice cream.
=ycz6 - Really cool samus you gave me a lot of great ideas. Definitely gunna steal a lot of stuff.
=Fly Amanita - Love seein ya wobble. Smart guy with a ton of heart.
=Azusa - You're going to be a top player if you keep it up. Good mentality and awesome adaptations.
=Violence - You have new tricks I'll give ya that but you aint changin my mind about the match up. Good human being, I really want you to rise and beat everybody.
=Lord - I admit I was going a little crazy watching you...for probably obvious reasons...but seriously though I don't know how anyone can even play like that makes no sense to me. It's extremely creative though and you're quite a good joker.
=PewPewU - So much dmg : ]
=HomeMadeWaffles - Thanks for the kind words, ya got some awesome wins and hope ya keep on commentating.
=Alan - Love your mannerisms.
=Darrell - I think I probably won't do a money match for a long while :/ You can keep taking money from other unsuspecting victims.
=JeezImSoBored - Ultimate sponge. I'm glad you're understanding the fraudulence.
=MacD - I'm going to slam this water bottle on the ground.
=Wieners - Lol ya gotta know your place. Couple years too early to touch THIS falcon!
=Bizzarro Flame - The man responsible for the breakfast combo.
=DendyPretendy - Hotbox ^_^ We gotta get that LA pizza.
=Tafokints - Chaingrab yes. Ya always liven things up fun guy. Glad to hear that you really want to level up.
=Sheridan - Thank you so much for housing us even though we all came at like 3 AM we're terrible people.
=Troy - Sorry I didn't really play yall I was mega tired and I slept instantly. Thanks for housing us we will definitely play a lot next time.
=Silent Spectre - Really chill guy hope ta get ta know ya better. I like turtles.
=Sparky - Lol I forgot you well here you are <3

Hope I didn't miss anyone. Anyone who wants to get better at this game is incredible. Melee is the best game in the world past and present. "This community is amazing" - CommonYoshi.

 

[GKInfinity]

Andrew Wu is da bes

 

[tarheeljks]

[Sanu]

This tourney was so fun to watch. Wish I was there to compete!

 

[Cereal Rabbit]

People outside of sac/davis/fresno don't really know me, but shout outs to you guys even though you guys don't even know me kinda.

Nelson (Cowmooh?) - Yo, you got a pretty solid puff. I'm glad you got a lot of people to cheer you only while we were playing. They're the guys that'll encourage you and get you better.

Jeffles (SS, ma hero) - So everyone knows you and calls you Jeff even though you don't really know them back LOL. If you're reading this, man, I just wanted to say that I really respect you and I didn't play Kirby that game to disrespect. I knew the set was gonna be frustrating if I went Marth, so I just wanted to enjoy it and have fun.

Random Falcon Guy in pools (???) - Yeah good games. There's not really much I can say because I don't really remember stuff to say LOL.

(22B) - That Roy caught me by surprise. I don't know whether to feel ******** when I lose to a Roy or to drop some mad respect. Yeah, mad props to you pulling out your main. I didn't have the balls to go Kirby against your Roy. Maybe next time I'll cc you more... hahaha. Good rep. Good guy. No salt.

Andrew Wu - I guess it's a thing to say something. Waiting outside until like 4pm even though we arrived at 12 was not pleasant though. I mean if it got done what it got done then all good mang.

(Dunk) - My boy Dunk. I remember back in 07 when we both sucked. Then you moved to SoCal and got legendary. Too bad we still lose to Chris' gay line of up characters. Good stuff bringing hype in Fresno and keeping melee alive.

Adam Boogers - I don't know man, you just always hype and reminding this community why we love smash. You are a pioneer of hype plus you play it out too with your legit Falco.

Mr. Old School DP - I remember TC1 inviting me to your house and getting wrecked sometime in '10 or '11. I was like a little kid and I saw a bong for the first time. Good stuff ****** my Marth.

Van Francisco - Driving man. Even though we couldn't stay the night, I have no regrets. Props on doing well against those Sheiks. Too bad you lost to the average ones.

(Eclipsing Binary) - Amazing video capture skills. Good job in your pool. Glad you did pretty well. Hope to be seeing you more when we host in Davis.

Nhat (Dragon Fart) - You played on the screen. Wow. Best in Davis for sure. The controversy is over.

Eric (Lord) - I finally get to play you and destroy your alts with my Kirby. It was super hyper hearing about you, and even more hype hearing about how you play with ole Davis folks. Teach me how to you so good mang.

Alvin & Kevin - Papitos. Hella good mexican good.

Jesse (Mooninite) - Not only are you one of the best person in NorCal, you're one of the best encouraging persons here. I hear so much trash about Kirby, but you say a lot different stuff. Thanks for supporting my main even though I'm tempted to go Marth or Fox LOOOL. I have a bag of sleeves for Kirby secrets.

Sheridan - Just so it's out there... lol

Spencer - I heard you were here, but no Kirby dittos happened. THANK GOODNESS

James Singlesomething NoR4U - I thought you played Sonic? Just kiddings, it's good to see you back in Melee. So good to be reunited with the one and only. It was good to see Kato too. No Nanerz though...

Dendy/Crimson/Bizarro - Ice cream place? Yup

Brandon (HMW) - In '07, I hosted a tournament and flaked so you ended up hosting it in Fresno even though you drove down form Modesto. Just wanted to put that out there. But damn, prop on top 8. HYYYYPEEEE

 

[Walt]

Chok: glad I got to play both your ICs and ylink. Our stream match was probably the most fun I've ever had in a tournament.

Boback: For yelling at me what to do against chok. I would have lost way harder if I hadn't been listening to you.

Tafo: loool I got pretty dunked. I asked scar if he had any advice against you and he just kinda "I have no idea" look on his face then told me to keep presence of mind.

 

[Cowmooh]

Was fun! GG's everyone.

 

[Juggleguy]

Can one of the TOs give me an estimate on how many entrants there actually were at the venue? 120, 160, 200?

 

[GKInfinity]

There were probably 2-3 no shows per pool. We had quite a few DQs lol

 

[HyugaRicdeau]

I kept track of how many people got DQ'd, I'll post it up later.

 

[Engdrew]

Can one of the TOs give me an estimate on how many entrants there actually were at the venue? 120, 160, 200?

We had 210 pre-reg for SSBM
We had 1044 total pre-reg for all the tournaments/spectating

I want to say we had at least 200 players there (some no-shows, some people signed up last minute at the door and weren't in my registration system)

Here are my shoutouts:

LANHAMMER SHOUTOUTS. Sorry I’m super ****ing late!

Bobby Scarduzio - Our fateful encounter in the Twitch TV office led to the greatness that was SSBM at LANHAMMER.
