H-Box: Thanks, but I don't need any housing now. I'm going to be closing Friday night since my co-worker/old roommate needed me to switch shifts with her.

S4MUS4theW1nN;4331913: I'm coming from Tampa, so I wouldn't mind giving you a ride back. Only other person with me will be Abe from Sarasota.

Laijin: I'll team with you. I always get somebody at the last minute and Abe's already taken.

Well, they could do a massive cutdown to 32 or (better choice) 64

I think I prefer just going to brackets, though...as you said, it's gonna take SO long...

I hope they do pools, not that I think any of you noobs will be beat me. :V
Noobs, eh? From now on whenever I see you I'm going to think TB. What's worse than having the initials of a deadly bacteria?

I'm prepared to be flamed for this noob question.

Pools?
BURN HIM AT THE STAKE! I believe the general idea is everybody just finds each to play against and keeps score or something like that.

In Pools, everyone is divided into even groups, and in these groups, they play round robin with every other group, 2 matches, not a set. Usually 3-4 out of each pool move on to the double elim brackets, and those are the 3-4 with the most total wins.

It's technically a better way to get accurate placement based on skill, and it gives noobs who get eliminated early in brackets more chances to play. It takes longer, though.

I dont know, it mainly takes to long due to the people involved. Ive done pools quite a few times, and i always remember how amazed i was at how swift MLG pools was. We cant really expect that so much though. I really like pools. :(

I agree though i think its better to go without.

xyz you never answered my post, what kind of double cheeseburgers we talking about here?

Lol @ Kiss Matches.

Also, I just wanted to remind everyone that me and Queenie already won doubles for this tournament.

Just so you wouldn't waste your time.

And also me and Q will DOUBLE KISS match ANY team. For lots of kisses. ;0

Oh I wish that was still true, sadly though the great "restaurant" has been letting me down time after time when it comes to double cheese. I had to go diet and start getting snackwraps, that's how disappointing the beef is now. Perhaps I'm just unlucky and get really old batches and as I'm leaving they go "alright he's gone, start cooking the good ones now"

Psshh everyone and their moms play as Ike and Snake.
There's a difference between playing characters and playing them well...Yes, there are a lot of Ikes...most of them suck. really, really badly


Don't generalize on characters.

Anybody who still needs housing needs to PM/IM me BEFORE 02:30PM today. After that, I don't know if I can accommodate because of my late work schedule.
