@Shaya
I... guess... so...? 0_0

One of our new players won a -4 match-up against one of the best MKs in the country, so we can't be that far behind everyone else.

My favorite set if all time... And it wasn't even recorded.

Such a pity.

Need to record more. Like hype rematches between Ted and splice.

earl the MASTER of adaptivity

not a fluke nor one off in the slightest, allens, no SA is right on the tail of melbourne, if not BETTER

we are ****ED, Melbourne are just going to quit while we are ahead

 

[Invisi]

Wait, so this isn't the Allens vs Earl set? Because that was recorded - I know I've seen it somewhere.

 

[Jamwa]

Is D43n still coming to this?
If not I need a new dubs partner, and it would be good if they could heal or if they play squirtle and their name is Joey

 

[dean.]

Jamie, my name is not hard to spell.

I know! The hype was amazing

Johns.
Peeps are reading too much into what I said though lol, Melbourne still obvs the best and significantly better than SA.

Besides, there is also this match. I know hating on SA is the cool thing, but credit where it's due.

Wait, so this isn't the Allens vs Earl set? Because that was recorded - I know I've seen it somewhere.

Yeah, that was a rematch which Earl won

 

[S.D]

Pre-existing issues there, you weren't to know.

 

[CAOTIC]

Japan actually much closer to Australia, since they effectively stopped playing in 2008.

 

[Robsta]

[zApollo]

Hey guys! Mighty keen for this weekend, I'm looking forward to seeing all your faces again.

Has there been any word on the seeding for pools yet? I also am assuming that you guys will be using the Victorian Brawl ruleset for this tourney (Japan stagelist ftw!).

 

[Leisha]

Yeah I posted the rules already apollo, but I think it got buried further back into the thread. But yes, its the vic ruleset.

As for pools, Jei will be seeding them on the saturday after we find out how many people pre registered and who.

 

[joeyjoeyjoejoe]

Is D43n still coming to this?
If not I need a new dubs partner, and it would be good if they could heal or if they play squirtle and their name is Joey

if you cant find another teammate, we can team. but i rather not

 

[Leisha]

Dekar can you qoute this and place it into the OP so I dont need to dig this up again lol.

General rules:
- Meta Knight's Infinite Cape Glitch and Extended Cape Glitch are banned
- The Ice Climber's infinite chaingrab can only be performed up to 300%, any more after that can and will be considered stalling. Same goes for any other infinite chaingrab or grab release
- Wii-motes and Classic controllers are allowed, however they are discouraged due to battery life, connection issues, unreliability and time hindrance. The GameCube controller is preferred
- The Tournament Organizers are not responsible for any lost or damaged equipment eg. TV's, controllers etc. so please take extra care of your belongings and label them if you must
- Stalling is banned
- If a game ends with Bowser doing his suicide klaw and it ends in sudden death, the sudden death will be ignored and that game will count as a win for Bowser. Same rule applies for Ganondorf's suicide Flame Choke, Kirby and Dedede's neutral B and Donkey Kong's suicide grab
-There is a 50 ledge grab limit for all characters except Metaknight, who is limited to 25. If a game goes to time and one player goes over the Ledge Grab Limit for their character, they will automatically lose the game. If both players exceed their Ledge Grab Limit, then this rule is ignored. This prevents players simply stalling on the ledge

Additional rules:
- No player may choose a stage they have already won on in that set unless agreed upon by both players
- If the timer runs out, the victor is determined first by stock and then by percentage
- BYOC (Bring your own controller): Players are expected to bring their own controller and be prepared for every tournament set
- Pausing may be turned off by request and the request cannot be denied. In the event pause is on and is pressed, whether by accident or on purpose, the result will be a loss of the current stock for the perpetrating player
- Players who use the Wii Remote must take the batteries out of the Wii Remote when not playing. If the Wii Remote is still synced up to a Wii with the batteries in, you could unintentionally disrupt a match. If problems persist, a DQ may happen
- You are responsible for your own controller and name tag. Any malfunctions or errors that occur are your responsibility (including battery issues with a Wii Remote), so bring an extra controller if possible and always check to make sure you're using the correct settings BEFORE a match is played. Both parties need to agree if a match is to be paused or restarted because of these problems
- Intentional forfeiting, match fixing, splitting, and any other forms of bracket manipulation are not allowed and punishable by the TO
- No substitutions are allowed for singles or doubles
- Coaching is allowed only between games, not during. Failure to adhere to this will lead to punishment at the TO's discretion, which could include the removal from the venue
- DQ Rule: Arriving too late for a match will result in a DQ. Player(s) will have 5 minutes to show up before a loss of the first match. 5 more minutes results in a loss of the set. For doubles, both players on a team need to be present in order to play
- The tournament organizer has the right to save/record any tournament match if possible and has the right to upload said match
- Regarding textures and other game hacks:
* Players may request that any texture, stage, or other hacks be disabled during a tournament set. If this is unable to be done, they may switch to a different setup if available
* The BBR-RC recommends players do not use intrusive texture and stage hacks
* Players are not allowed to use any game altering hacks, such as no-tripping or model hacks. If someone is caught setting up a system they brought with such hacks enabled can face punishment at the TO's discretion

What is happening tomorrow? I'll come, msg me the details pls.

 

[CAOTIC]

Can we plz plz plz have a AUSTRALIAN MELEE PR after this tourney?

Every good player will be coming, except Kas.

This is likely to be the most competitive and intense tourney since M2K came over and ruined everything <3.

 

[Grim Tuesday]

So, I got a message from Novaaaaaa
"Luke and Ted, there's something very amusing they have set up for you"

I'm not attending, but can I still receive the amusing thing you have set up for me in some way, Ted? A picture of a rigged bracket would suffice.

Australian Melee PR would be cool to see.

 

[Ken Neth]

Why isn't there going to be a live stream at this? I heard the main reason was cause people don't think people would watch it. Just stopping through to say that is definitely not the case. I know I, as well as a bunch of us on the snake boards, would be interested in watching this. It may not get a record breaking amount of views, but you will definitely get a decent audience if you do it and people know about it. In general, a lot of people are pretty interested in tournaments from other regions of the world.

So, live stream please

 

[Zinoto]

I would like to see a live stream of this. I wanna see tibs in action

 

[Player-1]

I will watch the stream solely on the condition that tibs is not shown in it....



better yet, I will only watch it if Tibs is banned from this tournament all together.

 

[S.D]

Lolllllll Tibor fail.

 

[Ralph Cecil]

I want to watch an Australian livestream. D: I don't know a whole not about the scene outside of Attila and Tibs pretty much. :I

 

[Dekar289]

hi yanks
matches will be recorded, some with commentary.
livestream would be a waste of time and effort.
