Hehe I'm honestly not a huge smasher. I support the competitive scene entirely, but if you were to go through all my posts, you'd see that I hang out pretty much exclusively at the bottom of the boards -- in all the non-SSB rooms. Though I do play from time to time, I've grown apart from Smash Bros, but would like to jumpstart my interest in it once again. Getting a chance to meet the community in person is what I look forward to the most, so I'll come around. I don't live all that far from Funplex (I drive over to Beechnut often, I know a few people who live off it), so I'll definitely be there. I've a feeling I went there once when I was much, much younger for something or another.
But yeah, I'm a native Houstonian through and through. Perhaps I should start posting in the Houston thread. If any small SSB-events come up, I'll be sure to try and make the rounds.
