No problem.

I have some cool custom stages (but that depends on your definition of cool) that I could offer as well then.

The 30th is a Wednesday, but the time is GMT, which is the basis for the world's time right? So if you are in a different time zone you may make it...

That's for me to know
I have another question. I just joined the monthly tournament club apparently. After I did this, I couldn't find any links or anything that said that I was in a club or anything... How do I check up too see what group I am in?

Go to your profile by clicking your name at the top and then go to social groups at the bottom and click on it.

But just for future notice, if you have questions like this just pm me or Blade or leave either of us a visitor message.

However I just noticed blade is out until the 27th so I guess until then just contact me...

No Spamming... you are telling people to not play their style? Cheapness is only determined by the fact that you are unable to counter it.

You play zelda right? Its just like don't just use your side b, then run away when people get near you and do it again. Thats not really skill. You can use your side B but don't do just that.

I personally don't see Zelda's Din's Fire as a problem. Its just a simple camping game that is no different than Snake, TL, or any other character.

Also - Asking people not to infinite is like asking not to Chain Grab. When you're fighting a competent Ice Climbers, getting grabbed means losing a stock. If someone is placed in a spot where they can quickly get their opponent to high percentages, then you'll see that happening.

My point is, having a ban on infinites doesn't seem very practical. My suggestion is to set a rule on the amount of time that can be spent on infinites. For example, you'll lose the round if you use an infinite past 150% or so. You could set it to a lower percent like 100% if you wanted, I'm just suggesting to put limits.

Please, please, please do not allow Pokemon Stadium 2 as a stage! The conveyor belts and air jets are ridiculous. Just use PK 1 =(

What are the rules for counterpick stages? Are we using counterpicks at all?

On a lighter note.

Please let me join but don't pair me up with a snake plz.
LMFAO, plz no spamz and dont use snake hes soooo broken omg. This is rediculoous. How can you possibly limit the way that people play and request to not play a certain character in a tournament. Many times tournament play revolves around heavy use of projectiles as well as defensive gameplay. How are you going to determine spamming? Will you put a limit on the amount of times someone can use a certain move? Or will you just ban specials like falcos laser and pits arrows all together?

Well first you are asking how you could request not to play a character while you yourself are asking to ban a character?

Second I guess infinites are ok up to...75%, but if enough people don't want it then there is justification to banning it. And like I said before: you can't just do a move, run away, and continue to do that move for a large part of the match. We won't ban special moves. Just don't be cheap because that is not real skill.

Is that a joke? Because if it is...I don't get it...

The problem with trying to ban spamming is you cant really determine the specific amount that is considered spamming. I'm in no way saying that it's fair or should be allowed i'm just saying its not possible to determine what the amount is. My thought on infinites is it is only useful on corneria because of the wall, so it is not going to be a huge problem. I do however like the 75% limit rule. Next subject i'd like to cover is banning characters. IMO it is the stupidest thought ever, that's all that needs to be said. Next, on the agenda is stages. My stage picks are FD, Smashville, Lyat Cruise, Yoshi's Island, Corneria, Battlefield, Halberd and Pokemon Stadium 1 (basically anything neutral). Last, but not least, prizes i would say is an interesting stage. Prize money would be nice but kinda dumb because its free entry, that goes the same with wii points.

Which is just a basic summery of all my posts here so far...

But the amount that is considered spamming...75% with infinites, 5 IC chain throws (don't complain its 3 in texas), and 7 with one move over and over again until you move on with something else.

If anyone has any better suggestions, just post them.

"Time: 5:00pm GMT"

Er, what time would that be, Eastern USA? I might be working then, since I just noticed it's a Wednesday, unless I'm not at that job anymore.

Well GMT is the world standard so I guess eastern time would be -4 hours. So the tourney is at 1pm for you.

That is a group anyone can join so just follow the link and click "join group" near the top to join. This way we will have a better idea as to how many we have. It will also have updated tourney info since blade hasn't been here to update his first post or invite more people to the group

God thats so dumb. You cannot limit the amount of times you do a move over and over. Anyways anyone with half a brain would realize that b/c of decay it would be useless to do just one moves. And btw I was being sarcastic about the snake comment -_-.

Look there is no need to be harsh. We decided to get rid of the move limit (though the infinite and chain grab thing still stands). And I am sorry I can't tell when you are typing sarcasm. If you want, use these [sarcasm][/sarcasm] lol

And sudsy, sorry you can't come. Maybe you can make the next one...

Well, coincidentally, my employer can't afford to keep me on an 8:30- 1 PM job, so I can make about two hours of it or so. Could it start around 12 or so?

Well kind of. You have to join the social group. The link is posted above. Make sure to confirm you are going on the day of the tourney. We are discussing a new date and time because the one right now is too inconvenient for too many people.

Ok I am triple posting for two reasons

1. Knew and important information about this tournament
2. To bump this thread.

Notice: So, this tournament has long since moved from here to a social group, however that social group had problems so it moved to another social group. Now the person who made that group left and I had nor bladeradio0 had no control over the group so I have made another new social group! The group can be located here: http://smashboards.com/group.php?groupid=323

This new group has new rules. These online tournaments will be held every Saturday at varying times. Check the group for times. We will meet in the xat chatroom here: www.freewebs.com/bladeradio0. So everyone hurry up and join this new group!
