Mark me as green 'cause Jmic's going. I really wanted to go to Modesto but I ended up going to Vegas instead. This should be fun.

I'm pretty sure I'll be going to this, and I'll be bringing a tv/cube as well. Sounds like fun.

Jmic is probably not going to make it, but I can still bring the equipment he's signed up for. You know, just in case you were worried about it.

I'm still a "maybe;" I'm going to try to make it up there, but Fresno's quite a ways away from San Ramon, so we'll see.

I'm trying to get Rush to come as well, though he probably won't be able to go.

I should have checked this earlier. I got up, got dressed, and went to print directions when all of a sudden it's been postponed. Oh well, I guess the 2/2/08 one will be great too.

If no one is busy on the 9th, we could get a larger tourney. It's on the 2th as far as I know. Chris might change the date.

maybe this is just me but i dont think there is a reason to ban wobbling like not many ppl play IC's and like for those that do and can wobbling its no there fault there doing it to you its more like your fault for getting caught in it lol and i think if you ban that you have to bann other infinites

How about banning Wobbling that is meant for stalling purposes? Or just banning any stalling techniques like Shino Stall, Rising Pounds, and Peach Bomber etc.

Wobbling is fine, but if it's abused for like 8 minutes, noooo, lol.

Shino stall is alright, but not overly done, just like the rising pound.

Basically for mindgames versus actually stalling.

Andre can't wobble (yet?) so I'm not really tripping about wobbling. But there's a lot of characters where if you get grabbed you die. Falcon, Fox, Sheik are just grab-combo machines. But I guess it's totally different.

I don't know, I'm just babbling.

So you're right, because you have an awesome Falcom helmet!!!!

It's fine as long as it isn't used for stalling. I mean an IC can wobble their opponent until like 100 and use Nana to Down Smash, but if they're 2 stocks down with a really high damage, they can't use it to wait for the time to run out.

And whaaa? Andre can't wobble yet? Even I can wobble and I only play ICs when I'm bored.

I don't know....
If I could estimate about 20-ish WILL COME. If everone possible could come (despite rides etc.) we could have a pretty big outcome like 30.

Sweet! Seems like you'll be in until singles finish. Lumpy is a little ifffy if he can make it or not.

how's the money matching scene in fresno? I'm still n00b, but I like to throw away money so... >_<
Basically, Fresno is at it's climax of competetive smashing. I was playing for a long time along with a few Fresno smashers, but so many people are coming out of this city and ****** me. I guess you'll have some pretty entertaining MM. You might get some good $ too :).
