Yeah he came to TX to attend a wedding and we just happened to be hosting a tournament around the same time.

Welcome. You'll definitely get the chance to play some of the best players in Texas. The best player in TX will also be in attendance (Oscar aka "Mojo") so you'll get your challenge!

Looking at your join date, this is probably slightly before your time, but we tried to do a Top 25 U.S. Melee Ranking about 6-7 years ago with limited success - http://super-smash-bros.wikia.com/wiki/Smash_Panel_Power_Rankings There's so much grey area and hand-waving, the process was...

The lack of respect for Wobbles is absolutely astounding. He's rank ***ing 4 on ssbpd.com's smash ELO rating, only under Armada, Mango, and Hbox (pretty good company), and this isn't enough for him to sniff top 10? A lot of people seem to have Javi on their lists (rather high as well)...

Current panel: Sethlon, Kal, Tirno, Broly, MT Maybe add Oscar in (if he wants to) to round out a panel of 6?

That doesn't sound like "stupid ****" at all. That sounds like useful and important information to consider for a panel ranking discussion.

This is a pretty good list, but I don't see the point in leaving Jake13 out just because he wants to be left out. AustinRC asked to be taken off the list but that's because he's not active anymore and he doesn't really plan on coming to a whole bunch of tournaments. We left Xelic off the...

This is one of the few instances in my life where having a difficult-to-say, foreign, uncommon name is actually beneficial. I think there are maybe 2 or 3 other Anupams in the entire United States. What are the chances that a 50 something year old investment banker (one of the other...

Good **** to Kal moving up to rank 6. Also MT's right at the cusp of top 10 lol. Once we get a couple of more tournaments in the system, we can maybe include the entire top 15 for our rankings thread.

These are the current top 15 (active) players in Texas by ELO (before riceguy results are factored in). It'll be interesting to see how this tournament changes things. Pre-rice guy: 1. Darkrain - 1661 2. Mojo - 1545 3. Xelic - 1476 4. AustinRC - 1459 5. Tirno - 1422 6. S.O.S. - 1416 7...

"ragequitting" is just a trendy thing to do in texas smash. He wasn't actually raging. Most people in texas quit a second before they're guaranteed to lose all 4 stocks. It's not like he quit mid-match or anything. Do people in other smash regions actually "rage" quit?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0pnjaoeusqc&t=13m7s That one was nice Austin good ****. There were a couple of combo video-worthy combos in that entire set.

I suggest a pool-less, 32 man triple elimination bracket tournament next time (best of 3). Ok not really, but wouldn't it be cool to see if we could conceivably finish a 32 man best of 3 triple elimination bracket tournament in 10-12 hours? Forget the melee tournament - the actual "game"...

Ball's in your court. Austin is putting up Xelic/AustinRC/Tirno/Cyphus/Reqy. I know you personally said you'd be fine with $20/person ($100/crew), but nobody else on your crew has agreed to those terms. Is $20/person cool with the rest of your crewmates? Or maybe with Von's recent surge in...

$20/person works (again, as long as both Austin and Houston are at full strength). 5 v 5 or 8 v 8 (or suggest a # v #)? Admiral! - if Kal is in Houston then certainly he can be on the Houston crew. If I recall correctly, Kal has never been too big on crew battles in general so it's doubtful...
