[HuBBsDoctor]

just a heads up guys. I negotiated a permanent venue fee for all my tournaments at VirtualRush. From here on out and starting with this tourney the entree fee is $7 to get in.

 

[HuBBsDoctor]

NEPA or not I'm pushing this. I'm not gonna have another tournament bust.

 

[HuBBsDoctor]

Well for those who don't feel like driving 2 hours(more for those from jersey) to NEPA, I hope you come and have lots of fun.

 

[Howl-NJ]

Hey, is this still happening? My friend and I would definitely like to attend. More of our friends may come as well. We're from Atlantic City.

 

[HuBBsDoctor]

Yes it is. Bring as many of your buddies as you want.

 

[dot_eater]

why does this hav to be on the same day as NEPA

 

[HuBBsDoctor]

because I never heard of Nepa till awhile ago.

 

[HuBBsDoctor]

Looks like there is going to be a decent turnout for the SC3 portion. How about from the SSBM? HYPE HYPE HYPE! Only 4 more days.

Winner with highest % will win, eh? That's a bit different.

Also, if by glitches you mean l-canceling, and wavedashing then let me learn ya some stuffs

In SSB, z-canceling was used, and was on the Japanese websites for the game. They nerfed it for the new game, by reducing lag frames in half, instead of all.

As for wavedashing, it was found in the early stages of beta, but it wasn't classified as a glitch, since it's how nintendo coded the game. They called it The Super Wave Land, as they had not used it as a dash yet.

The super wavedash, though, I guess Mr. Joker will have to do without!!

I never remember to unsubscribe threads :embarrass
Just so everyone knows i didnt intend on attending this, i was looking for an event a while ago, but i was just letting the guy know to post it in other places too so he may have a better chance at ppl seeing it, seeing as tho he was obviously new to the boards

I was talking more about the glitches that allowed you to make it so your opponent can't control their character and others that make the game unplayable.

There is a small problem, VR will not open till about 11:45-ish so I will start the whole thing at around 2pm. Registration will start when the place opens. SO sorry for the problem. VR called me to let me know 5 minutes ago.
