host in June and just take money out of the pot if there's not enough people lolololol

 

[Tamoo]

Charles: You could gauge interest for a June event, get people to state whether they'd be available to attend or not and see whether the maths adds up. If not, move it to July I guess.

Is June the last window for you to practice before Genesis? If it is, I'd say rather than hosting a tournament, it may just be more beneficial to play people like Prof and Edwin solidly at NTSC. This is presuming the reason you want to host in June is to practice for Genesis though, if it's not fair dos.

 

[PDOT]

Patience guys...

 

[jjlinyard]

1 day on a weekend could be the difference between full grades if what you planned to revise comes up on the exam......

Do it in July. And do it all NTSC for bantz.

 

[Jolteon]

My exams finish before June starts lololol.

 

[Bishkin]

Hey just poppin my head in to say I can do June

 

[jjlinyard]

and either do it before the 9th of july or after the 20th :D

 

[Professor Pro]

Might as well wait to July then so everyone can make it and make it a big one, any chance of getting a tiny bit more TV's anywhere you think?

 

[Jolteon]

I think we should all agree to put a bit of the pot or have a higher entry fee towards getting new tvs, it won't be a big cut because crt tvs are cheap and also we have less tvs than we used to.

also I am contemplating hosting something myself when I get a job, there's a nice venue near my house and it has a kitchen too lol.

 

[Professor Pro]

Yeah I like the new TV's idea, get like £1 from everyone who comes and with brawl and melee and the decent turnout we could get from this, it could be like £60 or more right there for extra TV's.

So is the venue gonna be £5 for this one so Charles can get some of his money back but the entry fee still being £2 because it's a monthly?
Not that I have a problem, just clarifying.

 

[Heartstring]

well once again, this set of exams is my last chance, if i **** these up ill be out of college and into the workplace, a.k.a: game over

i have a total of 14 exams, one of which is tomorrow, and they have a continuous streak untill june 28th. so no chance, as said earlier

as i said i want to come to everything possible, but for the next month, i cant have anything to do with it, education has to come first for the first time in my life XD
ill still follow obviously
also, hugo, are you going to collect your controller or what? PM me your mobile number and well sort it out over the phone

 

[rustediron]

Oh lol completely forgot
Ummmm, **** it, you can hold onto it till the next monthly I can make (probably august?)

 

[Kasper!]

make it july then xD

 

[L-J]

i wudn't be able to make june probs even though my exams are finished cus of organised festivities going on in cambridge that weekend. so yeah july's better for me.

[gm jack]

:O I'd always assumed that it was just a really long loop. Now it raises the question of there is a definitive bottom of the stage, but that'd probably take some AR to find.

July sounds good and I will come if I am in the country.

 

[Professor Pro]

Hopefully this can hurry up and get confirmed for July because I want to start telling some peopole in Croydon about it.

Looks like we're going to have a HUGE turnout for this one...but I was thinking, Charles why don't you buy extra TV's in advance for it and then just charge a bit more (like £1 from everyone) so that we actually have more TV's for this monthly.

I don't know how much £60 worth of TV's are but atleast that would get you 3 TV's.

 

[Heartstring]

60 quid for 3 tv's? dude fuzzys a jew, he can get the best deals easily
i got 10 tv's for 50. i bet london can do better

on the other hand, i have a few 60hz tv's at my house left from blastzone (re-sold most of the tv's to cover my losses) and i could bring them all dow to a july event if i got housing close to the venue...i should think i could at least

 

[gm jack]

Tbh, I think we should be more concerned about fuzz getting money back from the past couple of poor turnouts, then getting more tvs.

 

[Heartstring]

that is true, thats why if i bring tv's with me we could cushion it without making him buy more.

im all for support of the scene, theres this site i came across the other day where stuff was literally being given away (literally, zero quid) providing you went and collected said item, we could possibly gather a few tv's from people across the country this way

also, doesnt kone have any tv's left?

 

[rustediron]

He posted a while back saying he has no room for them in his new house, so had to get rid of them.

 

[Professor Pro]

More TV's = More people coming in future events by gaining a better interest from people knowing that they can play constantly at tournaments and also getting the tournament done faster because that's needed if we host both games, there's a bigger picture to it.

PLUS Fuzzy already said that he is putting the venue up to £5 like a National for this one since he's lost £220 or something like that, so it's not like him getting back he's money is being neglected

LOL I don't really know the price for TV's so I just said the lowest number which I thought was atleast realistic.
And yeah in that case, I think you should ask Fuzzy to host you since he lives the closest, how much TV's do you still have which could add to the collection anyway?

That sounds great lol, TV's for free is legit.

And Kone's gay and he threw them away apparently...and he had like 20 TV's and im not sure how much or if any of those TV's were recovered before he threw them away.

well, i have two tv's that i can add, one portable and one big-*** one which can be added right now. the big-*** one is a smidgeon dodgy though (it was the big one used for brawl at BZ1)
i could probably gather another one or two before july, although my room currently looks like a warehouse with all the stuff being stored in it right now XD

and i guess thats what happened with kones tv's. i kept sending him messages asking about them and if i could take them off his hands, but i got no reply

oh btw, i can actualyl give a total of 6 tv's. but only 2 are 60hz sadly

 

[Fuzzyness]

what gm jack said, but I'll try get 2/3 t.vs to replace the broken ones for £3 at local bootsales

 

[Heartstring]

for the love of god make sure theyre 60 hz XD i have no problem with 50 hz but everyone else refuses to play on them

 

[rustediron]

50hz tvs are clearly worthless lol

EDIT: actually you could probably use them for brawl

 

[Heartstring]

-__- hey come on, i gave melee good tv's, dont give us ALL the bad ones XD

 

[rustediron]

If brawlers wanted to play faster, they could just play melee =/

 

[gm jack]

The game actually runs at the same speed. Instead, it skips frames to match the timings of 60Hz, giving it the jumpy appearance. Everything is still calculated at 60Hz, but the skipping of frames makes it looks too "off" for any half decent standard of play.

 

[rustediron]

Really? I guess they just made a variant of the lightning mode algorithm, then

 

[Heartstring]

if i wanted to play melee, i would play melee

but i want to play brawl, because im better at it and its more forgiving for a bloke like me XP

 

[Bullet Bill]

Hugo- if you don't like brawl then play melee and don't talk about it. Melee players flaming brawl was getting old about 2 years ago

 

[gm jack]

How long until it becomes retro cool?

 

[Heartstring]

never XP

im anticipating the fact that a lot of brawlers are going to flame the hell out of the rumoured ssb4 thats meant to be released along iwth the wii 2
