I'd like to know who in the general spokane area plays this game anymore, or anyone that would be willing to make a drive to play. I'm thinking about setting up a tourney just outside of spokane on highway 291, there's a pizza parlor there that would probably let us use their place for the day. Anybody be interested in doing that?

I am at school in Idaho right now, but my hometown is Richland. I know some guys in the Tri-cities who still play I think. They just haven't been around the boards recently. Also, what happened to the member Peaches? He lived in Spokane, I thought.

Sounds great. I haven't been playing or on the forums for a long time. If you set something up, I'll try to go out of my way to make it. BTW, I've been playing a lot more Street Fighter and ITG lately.

EDIT: I'm suprised so many people remember me.

Man, Peaches.... You don't know how long I've been trying to find you. I live in Spokane Near The Arena. The only people I have been able to play are some close friends for the past six years...we've been trying to put together a Spokane league group and were wondering if you would like to help us out. I would definately love to come to your tournament and I'd bring at least four other skilled players. PM me so we can get in touch. You can't imagine playing this game for six years in Eastern Washington. No good players. No good tourneys. No good rep.... Wait ....you do know what it' like.:(

@Buzz or Deva did either of you make it to the spokane tourney that was last year at the guys apartment?

Sorry, like I said, I've only been able to play close friends and my younger brother for the past six years. Don't get me wrong, we've been keeping up with the latest vids of the pros and browsing websites for new techs and skills, it's just that I only found out about this site earlier this month. The only touraments I've been to are small ones set up by me and my group, usually just to pwn some random n00bs that think they know how to play. Maybe that's what's kept me going this long. The feeling of having some guy say "Dude, I could own you at that game," and then me just pretending to be modest and say "Oh you probably could." Then after lawnmowering the n00b, acting all cool and saying "hey, good match," while I know how pathetic they mut be feeling inside. :laugh:
I'd love to play some skilled players other than my usual group so I'll try to get November 11 free to stop by. I'll see how many from my group will be able to attend as well.

Note: Hey Buzz, I'm dying to see a Y.Link ditto between You and my brother. He's only 14, but he's got some of the weirdest mind games I've ever seen even after all the vids I've watched of the pros. Seriously...he could put Aniki to shame in some respects. Really all I want to see is you crushing him. Our matches are basically 50/50, but it still bugs me that he can win without using many advanced techs. He sticks with the basics and only uses an advanced tech to throw off his opponent. In fact my style gets crushed by his unless I switch to a responsive style as well. It just annoyes me that all my wave dashes, shffles, ledge techig, etc, are totally useless against what seems to be an almost n00bish style. I wish you luck.

Hey Matt, I'll try to stop by once a week with Ash, though I don't know if I can find anyone else. We could definately get a good team going. The vids are also up on youtube. Search "SlyD Shiek" or Deva Link" and it should have our matches.

Cool, stop by at Eastern any time Wednesday from 9-11 am and you could smash for a while against me, Ash, and Brdy. I'll see if we can get some casuals going in Spokane every week.

As much as we'd all like to go to tournaments, it won't do us any good if we don't play amongst ourselves.

Also, due to a change in plans it's iffy about when I'll be showing up at Eastern.

Heyya. I live in Spokane on the North Side, near North Central High School if you know where that is. I don't really have access to a car unless I hit up friends for a Ride, but if I can make my way anyplace, i'll try my best.

My younger brother goes to NC. His name's Brendan Duffey. See if you can find him there or if you send me a PM of where your at, I could come pick you up to smash some time. Did you go to the last Spokane Tourney?

Winter break starts the 9th of December, and I leave that day. I'll be back around the 6th or 7th of Jan. If you come this weekend and Deva isn't going to TANG 21 I'll play with ya. Or if you decide YOU want to go to TANG 21 I'd go with you, split gas.

So this whole week I'll be busy studying for 2 finals that I have on Friday (the 1st) - but my weekend will be free. I might have a couple free days next week as well.. the 7th and 8th I believe.

Oh and speaking of friday... if any of you are into the Guitar Hero games, there's a Guitar Hero II tournament taking place on friday starting at 1pm in the PUB Bookstore. I'd go but I have to take a government final at 1 X(.

Anytime after 3 would be good. You could even stay until Sunday if you want. There's plenty of room. Take the bus to College Street and walk up that street and our house is the very last house on the left . It's huge and on the other side of the building (teh front) it says "Sigma Phi Epsilon" (facing 5th street, address = 419). You can just walk in and just say you're looking for Brady. Tell someone to call me if I'm not there. I have a test to take at 1 and I'll try to be back at the house by at latest 3:00. Bring your cube (I don't own one - lol). We should try to get Deva to come too.

I go to University of Idaho in Moscow, not too far away. Would be nice to play anyone to mix things up a bit. Don't have a very big variety of people to play.

Yeah, maybe we can get a mod to rename this thread or something. Make it just the eastern washington thread.

Hey, don't know if anyone is interested but I am up in Washington State Univeristy in Pullman if anyone is interested in smashing down here. A ride for me to go out to Spokane is rather dificult. I have about 4 friends down here who are decent. Would be nice to play with people of a little more skill level though...

Well, I have to go out to Pullman soon to hear some lectures (at least, I'll likely have to).

There's some guys in the tri-cities that play. If you somehow manage to get a hold of them then they might play. Sandman is probably the only one you could hope to reach.

Some of my bros here go to Pullman sometimes. In fact, some of them went there this last weekend. Maybe next time I could get a ride with them - think you could PM me some contact info? I'd be down with getting a ride there and playing with you whenever I can. :p
