I'd laugh if Vidjo agreed and Drephen came in with his head already shaved.






Does anyone want to make a friendly wager with me? I'm guessing that wobbling will have little to no effect on the top 8 placing players in singles, and will not affect doubles placings at all. You will see two ice climbers wobble that get anywhere (Chu Dat and Wobbles), and their placing will not be controlled by wobbles.

To everyone waiting for tickets - MLG will be putting tickets up in the morning. I think their hours are 8-5 Central. No need to stay up 24/7.

I'm on the same side of this wager.

I have one question, and one question only...

Is there gonna be dodgeball this year? Last year there kinda was, but nothing was officially set up...

Plus...this year, I won't have a cast on...so I can play better...=)

Ok, so official announcements are to follow:

Chillin is officially the EC captain by default.

We are opening it up for one more run at tickets tomorrow morning. This will be the last chance for open registration. Let me repeat that.

THIS WILL BE THE LAST CHANCE FOR OPEN REGISTRATION

We will start a waiting list after that in case people return their tickets.

dude

ill tell u why wobbles should be ban because you can't do anything to get out of it but with fox infinite u can still smash di out with like ar


also a tactic with wobbles is have a stock ahead and just keep doing it till 8 minutes runs out since ur winning its not stalling its a strategy

Ok, just to clarify, stalling with the wobbles is banned. Performing it is not.

The debate has happened in a million other threads, so please take it there.

just to clarify:

as long as you are doing damage until it gets to 999 thats NOT stalling right?

Okay, so the morning tickets will be available? Is there a limited number of tickets gonna be sold... or is it just within the time frame?

It's probably a limited # so,,, how fast you think they'll go?

I got work and no access to a comp in the morning which is a pain.

You can bet that they'll be sold out by the end of the day. Kishes have said 30 tickets, so you can expect that many. I don't expect them to sell out immediately, but your best bet is getting them before noon.

kish, because im an idiot - i thought NONE for teammate meant you don't have one yet and i thought UNKNOWN meant you didnt know whether or not he could go or something. i'm looking for a teammate now in Zjiin's thread so could you please change "Caboose"'s team status from NONE to UNKNOWN please (if it matters :p)

There should be a set rule about Wobbleing.

"Once your opponent reaches about 200% you MUST kill them. If you go higher then that, then stalling may be called against you."

that just sounds to me like someone's LOOKING for some way to make it legal

MLG Store already says sold out, and it's not yet 4AM here. I'm assuming this means it will be (re)opened this morning (ie, 4AM isn't yet morning, more like 8~11AM) with the added slots? Otherwise, mind pointing me where I need to go to get on the waiting list?

I'd have gotten the ticket earlier, but there was some confusion as to whether or not I'd have a ride. Thanks for giving us procrastinators one last chance, Prime.

I hope Jekyll slept. :( We don't honestly know when it's going up today, it's all up to the MLG employee.

Must not sleep...
Must get ticket...:psycho:

Sadly if they're not up by nine, the time I head over to my mom's, my chances at getting one are pretty much gone since she has no interwebs...

This is beginning to look like a really sad story for me.

i hope they don't sell out. my partner Sheepyman needs to get a pass.

to be on the safe side, would someone be willing to buy him one? he can pay you back right when he sees you obviously.

Okay guys, here's the scoop!

MLG opens shop around 8:30am. Depending on how long it takes for their tech guy to get his compy turned on, papers in order, etc... tickets should be up sometime between 8:30 and 9am, if not shortly after 9. Jv told me that he's planning to post in here once they go up, or shortly afterward.

Sorry for all the people who stayed up all night :(

Also, we decided to raise the number to 220. That's 40 more tickets going up shortly! It may sound like a lot, but with how things have been going I'm entirely certain that they'll go FAST. If you don't get a ticket, we'll be starting a waiting list of sorts via PM. If people drop out and/or we decide more space is available, we'll distribute tickets to people on the list.

So just to be clear, we will NOT be selling any more tickets at the MLG Store! Grab them while you can!!

Haha, because we quite clearly have no idea how to run a national Smash tournament.

Our stance has always been that something shouldn't be banned until it's be proven to be broken. Once it is, it'll be banned, simple as that.

I've honestly seen far more support for it being on than opposition. Most people have just shrugged it off. Either way, let's continue to avoid a debate in this thread. The thread is for informational purposes, not for rule debates. It's been on since Day 1, and if you want a refund because you didn't know, there are plenty of people who will take your ticket!

Actually, I never got a message from you. Did you maybe send it to Prime?

I don't see your name on MLG's list. Did you purchase a ticket? Feel free to PM me to discuss.
