Isn't it supposed to snow wicked bad Sunday? But yeah I can't make it. Good luck with the 81 when driving down. And I mean directly in Syracuse, but I would've been able to make the Cortland tourney in the summer.

Hello,

I am a college student in Hamilton College and am VP of the smash club there. I wanted to extend invitations to join our smashfest every thursday from 8pm - 12 pm . In addition, I wanted to see who would be interested in going to biweekly or monthly tournament in New Hartford, NY?

(Someone recommended that I should post on this thread)

Hey guys! Currently based in corning NY! Loving the new smash, though don't know many people here. I am a recent college grad, and though I could prolly make it to Rochester or Cuse for a tourney every once in awhile I care less for tourneys than I do getting together to smash hard!

Mana has smashfests every week or bi-weekly. If you join the Syracuse Smash facebook group you can get information on them.

There doesn't happen be any Smash scene in Auburn does there? If there's nothing local here it's no biggy, I can always look into Syracuse stuff, I'm already a part of the Facebook group, but I want to make sure there's nothing local here before I look into attending events in Syracuse. Gas is expensive.

I haven't been looking for anything recently but I live in the Utica area and I usually never see anything local. Just wondering if there was anyone in the area?

Hey, Im a just starting Smasher in Corning NY And Elmira Location. My question for everyone here is, is there any interest in setting up a scene closer to down here (I have several people already interested in Sm4sh tournies), and if they are, Would you like me to stream them (I have the laptop, and set up to do so, I would just need a stable internet connection and enough interest

I'm headed to Rochester today for a smash tourney. I am in corning and would love a larger scene. And I would love something closer to home, though I am not sure how long i'll be in the area, as I am still looking for jobs in larger towns.

I have a friend who goes to Elmira College and he'd love to play smash with people I bet. If you have a Facebook group you should make one, they seem to be the best way for smashers to communicate these days.

Where should I go to play melee if I live in Greene? I joined the Syracuse Facebook group, and I might be looking in the wrong places but I couldn't find any weekly stuff or anything like that.

Hey guys, were looking for another venue to host some tournaments at, and possibly even host bi-weeklies at in Syracuse. The venue has to be a little bit bigger and kinda cheap. If you guys have any idea where we should look please post.

My local tournament schedule

February tournament schedule for myself that Im going to, that more or less the rest of rochester should be making plans for too.

This Saturday 2/7. Smash at York Smash 4 and melee.
https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=870110979677225&ref=70
This is in Toronto a little less than 3 hours away.
Currently one Rochester car traveling to this, consisting of me, and Tyler Fox. Possibly Ethan Wedge Nicholas and Sanford Johnson as well.

Next Saturday, 2/14. My tournament, SMash It Out. Smash 4 and Marvel 3.
https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=702075516572738&ref=70
This is right here in the heart of Rochester at Christopher's Store AGN just like last time.
Anybody in Rochester, Buffalo, or Syracuse that plays either game should be there for this. Because...

Next Sunday, 2/15. Džejmz's tournament, Mash It Out. USF4, Persona, and Guilty Gear.
https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=336217979914608&ref=70
Same place, the very next day. If you play lots of games, and are coming in from another city, we should be able to find you a place nearby to stay for the night.

Friday 2/20 thru Sunday 2/22. Winter Brawl 9. Literally hosting every fighting game.
Even tekken and Soul Calibur I think.
https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1575385919362624&ref=70
This is a major tournament that everyone should be trying to go to in Philly. Big E always runs incredible, high quality events. And no matter what game you play, if you go to this, you will not be disappointed. Currently I know of one confirmed car traveling to this containing myself and Wedge, with 3 open car spots. But for those of you that cant travel that far...

Upstate Battle series 11. A smash only event. Saturday 2/21.
https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1565684997007230&ref=70
Imo, everyone should be trying to go to Winter Brawl but if you cant, this is an option as well.

Lastly. 2/28. Smash Street out in Albany. This one is Smash 4 only.
@[612011432264476:https://www.facebook.com/events/612011432264476/]
Im not sure if Im going to this one but me and Neil Freer might make a trip out for this, depending on how hungry we are.
