Tesh, teach me how to reach them. I honestly can't use AiB well, so I ask Zano to handle that side for Texas for me. If you could show me where these people are, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks Slush :)

Make an AiB account. Make blogs, as people to recommend it. THEN get others to make blogs. YOU have to advertise your events FIRST.

Also, on SWF/AiB/FB/Twitter you gotta spam top players profiles with the tournament thread links. Go to their reginal forums and post links. GET OUT THERE

WiiU basically IS an upgraded Wii.

It's what the Wii should have been.

Also, a good measure is to market different Houston colleges and public schools near the area that the tourney will be at. Make flyers and all that fun stuff

there's an underground world of smash that's still unknown to us. We should all make that journey to find this lost souls and bring them to the light.

Yeah, flyers are a really good idea, especially what mikehaze does up in socal, new players get $5 off if they bring a flyer.

So if I take an old computer and add a new video card and connect a tablet to it, it's a new computer.

Okay then.

WiiU is basically an updated Wii. it's why there wasn't a Wii HD...this is it.

WiiU = Wii UPGRADED

Deal with it, Mechon poopface.

It's okay, I know an old gen like you can't understand technology.

I am just a savant when it comes to this stuff.

haven't played any of those games in a long time.

you play Diablo 2 in 2012. 'nuff said.

Wii is cool if you like kiddie single player games. anything else, you're **** out of luck. multiplayer is a joke on the Wii
wait so playing an old game in 2012 is a bad thing?

and your generalization of wii is grossly incorrect. educate yourself please.

no just pointing out the blatant hypocrisy because you call me a PC gaming nerd when you play them yourself. I don't even own WoW or CoD anymore so idk why you keep bringing that up. they both sux. so YOU'RE the PC nerd.

and the Wii is garbage, just sayin'. like I said, multiplayer gaming on the Wii is atrocious. but if you enjoy playing Mario games and Animal Crossing then it's an awesome system.

Not really. We are just smarter and understand that the problem needs to be dealt with, not the symptom.

what the ****... someone take this and post yours

http://www.hypnoid.com/psytest2.html

mine:

You have a poetic sensibility and an ability to see beyond the day to day. You often seem to be living in a higher realm, or to be not-of-this-earth. Occasionally you imagine interior lives for friends and associates that are near-complete fabrications based on your fears or hopes for the future. You are often not aware of your own feelings. You have a strong sense of right and wrong, and because of this are often disappointed. Despite what can sometimes be a destructive inward-turning anger, you are very gentle. You are sometimes a bit out of touch with the ebb and flow of modern life. If your behavior is out of synch with your moral values, a severe psychic disturbance can result. Because connectivity is so important to you, you can become quiet and sulky if you feel that others around do not understand your point of view.

Always happy in a crowd, you love to converse, to relate, and above all to have fun. You tend to think in a more holistic manner than many others. Like a crow you are attracted to shiny objects, new ideas, playful exciting colors and the thrill of a new personal relationship. You love to talk or gossip. You are highly invested in the reality of day-to-day life. Practicality is far more important than issues of honor or allegiance. You are a creature of the here and now. You are a natural multi-tasker, often switching mid-thought from one duty to another. You have a flair for presenting your personality in your work, and are known as a great storyteller and natural actor. You are very skilled at taking in a barrage of information and distilling what is most important from it. Naturally charming, you are quick to win new friends. Over stimulation is a danger.

i felt like that test was going to cause me to have a seizure..

You are in a perpetual quest to find the new, the exciting. Emotionally volatile, you are known for sudden changes of opinion, of appreciation, and behavior. Following rules and established methods is difficult for you and the difficulties of higher education are usually quite daunting. Knowledge is best gained through an intimate association with the matter at hand. Usually driven by attitudes and desires of the group, you are talented in an established field of endeavor. Emotions come and go without a strong understanding of their causes. They are unexpected guests in an otherwise placid landscape. You live by your own codes of conduct, which can be noble or terrible depending on the individual. Authority is meaningless to you. You hate to be predictable, at all costs. Rarely verbally effusive, you can at times feel as if your feelings are too deep for words. You are very observant, but rarely express these observations to others.

Some of it makes sense, the rest seems like hogwash.

lol what the **** kind of questions are those?

edit: I got bored at question 6 and clicked answer A for all the other questions, I also didn't read my diagnosis but here is the copy paste

You are not a leader of men but an organizer of men. You need order and organization to feel secure about your life. You will usually have extensive knowledge of your family history and tradition. You have little use for things that are not useful. Hard work, thrift and dedication are the way to your heart. You will always deal with others in a steadfast and straightforward manner, and will consequently expect others to behave the same way. The strange, the illicit, the unusual, have no place in your mindset. Proper planning and organization is a distinct pleasure to you. Because of your sense of responsibility, you will often accept leadership roles that can be onerous and difficult. Your thinking is sequential. Relationships for you often revolve around a sense of mutual responsibility. Good parenting is of prime importance, as is the duties that one lover has to another. You are intensely loyal, but on occasion can be so obsessed with the duties of a relationship that you can forget to address the private moments that give a relationship meaning. Oddly, you can be extremely sentimental.

edit2: It would have been pretty cool if this test was programmed well enough to call me out on being too lazy to finish it. That would be creepy.

this is the most bizarre questionnaire I've ever taken, results in a second on question 17.

You tend to draw and nurture others with your natural charisma. Rarely satisfied with petty details, you remain focused on the grander scheme of things. In affairs of the heart you are very practical and might be thought on occasion perfunctory or shallow. Oddly, though you have a natural tendency to lead, you have a very thin skin and can easily be hurt by a thoughtless comment or a cruel barb. There is a danger that you will take on more responsibility than you can reasonably be expected to manage. So eager are you to succeed, that on occasion you crash and burn when the reality of the situation rears its head. Often your wide circle of friends can be rather indiscriminate; care must be taken not to become entangled with those of questionable moral character. Admitting weakness isn’t easy for you. When proven not to be invulnerable it can come as a great surprise. Unresolved issues can trouble you deeply.

some of this is kind of true I guess, but not all of it lol. I don't understand this test.
