Deal. This will be awesomeness.

I'd be happy to get an actual set with you too, if you don't mind.

$5, best 2/3, this tournament rules. Lucario Vs ROB.

We do the stage strike for deciding the neutral before stage bans, then deal!

I'll MM you with my MK or Snake too, if you want.

I guess I could do an MM, but no more than $1. It would give me something to do after I drop early, which is entirely possible.

I'm totally cool with stage strike.

Definitely not MMing your MK, I get enough Nados as it is. I wouldn't mind versing the Snake though. I'll think about it.

Haha... maybe I'll pull out MK in tourney this time; he's too easy.

BTW, I'll be bringing a full set-up. Not sure if you were keeping tally or not.

Lastly, some stage discussion.

No Luigi's Mansion? I see no reason why that shouldn't be a counter pick stage. Sure it is big and stalling can happen, but what stage can't you stall at? If you are hurting for a KO, you can just break the mansion down and KO someone easily in that amount of time it takes for it to re-spawn. If it spawns faster than you can kill them, then just break it down again. You can also do the whole "break it down except for one or two section thing" to keep it from re-spawning longer.

I also don't see the "running away and projectile spamming thing" happening, because the pillars block all projectile aside from ROB's laser. (To my knowledge anyway) You could probably just chase them down if they tried it, it's not like speed is a huge factor in Brawl. I have yet to see a projectile spam running away match at Luigi's Mansion. I would see no other reason for banning it other than that.

Norfair is another one I could see being a counter pick. The lava walls are all easy to see coming as well as the rising lava. The giant lava wave is also very predictable. You can shield it or use ledge invincibility to avoid it anyway, so crazy, long, damage taking battles for the little safety tube are unnecessary. The only real stage hazard is the lava shots that come from the background every once in a while. That hazard seems no different than the ones that happen at Halberd and that stage is legal. It's not like you can't see any of the hazards coming.

Island Melee might also cause some problems with the walk-off, but that doesn't bother me too much. You could always opt to not go over to the right side of the stage when versing a Falco or DeDeDe, but meh.


That's about all I disagree about on stage selection. Aside from those two and the possible walk-off problem at Yoshi Island (Melee), I am quite happy with the list.

OS is getting too popular with the MM's, so...

I'll challenge Kel best of 3 for Singles entry fee (If I can't make it HERE, then it can be in Marion instead)

I should be able to gather up an extra 10 bucks by then ^.^

I'm cool with any MMS. But if you're not Tink then you should bring the MMS to me. Typically when I ask for MMS people just look at me like "Yeah right! I'm not giving you my money!"

Tink, we can do as many MMs as you want with however many characters.

Hey Overswarm, let's change our match to Kirby vs. your ROB, since I just realized my Snake is terrible.

I've said that the stage list is totally open to editing as long as people provide a solid reasoning behind their assertions. If you don't like it, suggest some changes ^_^

They do. It's a contract! If you forego MMs you have agreed to, you are forever thrown into the spiraling pit of nubdom. It's a curse.


Speaking of which, stop dodging MMs >:\
