What is this personal counterpicking!? LOL In anycase... Shoutouts in 3... 2... 1...
Melee Shoutouts
1. Superboom (Marth) - Yay I took the first match in friendlies. bragbragbragbragbragbragbrag. nah, get ***** me. Way to go on beating Mike. I thought you'd get 2nd, no lie. Close matches but 2nd. But way to go, bro!
2. Mike Monkey (Marth/Falcon) - Wow, long time, no see! I had fun in our friendlies. Hope to see you more if smashfests and melee at monthlies keep happening. You know I'll keep entering and playing!
3. Alphicans (Fox) - Hah! Way to earn the right to rub it in everyone's faces. TOP THREE! Kickass Fox. The fact that I couldn't even touch you in pools was...scary. Jesus, buddy.
4. Stevo (DK/Shiek/Luigi/others...) - We finally got friendlies and matches in outside of At Melee's End, and the Doubles finals at Animethon years ago. And man, were they fun. DK vs. Link was incredibly fun, and I can't wait to keep on going with Gnaon so I can close the gap between us. Oh, and Luigi ftw. XD
5. Dragonz (Fox) - Glad that I didn't disappoint with beast Ganon. I had fun playing against you when I did!
5. Vincent (Marth) - A shame that I couldn't take it to game 3 against you, but nonetheless I had plenty of fun nonetheless. Let's play again some more. Next monthly or a near smashfest maybe?
7. Solaris (Samus) - That had to be the most epic set I've ever played in Melee, and our friendlies were incredibly fun. The extended grapple chaingrabs made me laugh. XDD Thanks for the good times, Jarret. You're getting a Brawl shoutout in my next set of stuff too. Good games.
7. MagnuM (Marth/Bowser) - STUUU!! D: You never showed for Brawl day! Oh well, we got to see you again. You're the reason that I even think of whipping out Bowser on occassion. XD Play more and get back in the groove of things, man. We know that you wreck.
9. Ron (Falco) - Not certain if I played you... I'm sorry. D:
9. x After Dawn x (Falco) - Good games on our money match. Next time I'll take you on with Ganon. It'll be even better. We finally played in Melee. XD
9. T-block (Puff) - DASH ATTACK TO REST DASH ATTACK TO REST. LOL
9. Kuraudo (Ganon) - Channel the warrior, my son.
13. Firefly (Falco) - Those were really fun games in friendlies. Way to go on learning Falco, man. I don't have the patience for him or Fox... So much easier to FAir all day. >_> Proper shoutouts for the Brawl section after.
13. Sraigux (Falco) - **** I suck for forgetting who I played.
13. Funk (Peach/Ganon) - You too. orz
13. Kyle (Marth) - I think you should stick to playing Marth. I see potential in it for this game if you keep playing! Falcon dittos for the win too. We gotta do more of those at any Smashfest or next monthly if Melee is there. You down??
17. Salamander (Peach) - Fun friendlies! Proper shoutouts for Brawl to come!
17. Yoshara (Roy) - Proper shoutouts for Brawl to come, but I wanna see more of that Roy later!
17. Bankai pwn (Pikachu) - I hope your tournament experience here was a good one, even if it was small. If you ever need a hand with anything, just let me know. I was glad to help and I hope my controller saw you through some fun matches. I didn't get to see your Pikachu much this time, but next time we're definitely going to play some matches. I hope you're cool with that. I think it'd be fun. ^^
BRAWL SHOUTOUTS COMING RIGHT AWAY
Brawl Shoutouts
1. Superboom (Snake/MK) - Way to go, as usual, yadda yadda yadda seeya in Fort or in Spruce later. lol
2. Alphicans (Game & Watch/MK/Falco) - Good job on beating Jack and taking 2nd. I don't think we managed to play in Brawl this monthly. Wtf, eh? Oh well. We had plenty of fun.
3. KillL0ck (Marth) - Playing you in the bracket this time has taught me something about myself. I need to focus to win. I know that you shouldn't be giving me as much trouble as you do. Oh, and when we won? There was no need to apologize. I don't ragequit or get down on myself. I just think. And have fun. And I learned the most from you what I have to do. The sandbagging that goes on in friendlies, and the focus that goes into a tourney bracket match... I've begun to see what I have to do to win. Thanks, Jack.
4. Fiji (MK/Snake) - ARGH THAT SD. I can't wait to face you in bracket again. Snake or MK, doesn't matter, game on. Thanks again for all you guys did for recordings and the like. Can't wait to see vids go up.
5. Firefly (Yoshi) - ARGH THAT SD. Wow that friendly match was awesome though. And way to go on your placing for coming back. Once again your Yoshi is something to be seriously feared. You and I will have our bracket match, and seeing as how you and I have closed the gap in skill level, I'm looking forward to a set that goes to game 3, or game 5 depending on how far you and I go. And it WILL be epic! You're not the best Yoshi in the world. But in all honesty and as a friend; you're one of the best I've seen. At least give yourself that much credit. Sonic vs. Yoshi; no copouts and our best characters going at it. It's going to happen. GET HYPED!
5. Frio (Pikachu/Snake) - Good games, Mark. I have to learn the Pikachu match-up. Once I do, I'll give you a fairer, and more fun set. Congrats on 5th.
7. Zero (Ike/King Dedede) - ... ... ... Sonic FSmash into Dedede chaingrab. That is all. LMFAO
7. T-block (Diddy/Pokemon Trainer) - We STILL have never had a tourney set! **** it! LOL way to go on bringing it back around this time instead of choking like last monthly. More P.Trainer next monthly. But your Diddy really shocked me this tournament. Especially in crews. The things that I was seeing... Wow. Next monthly will be amazing. I'd better get you in my pool, or face you in the bracket. Because **** just got real.
9. Lime (Snake) - Beast mode in Crew Battles! Holy crap, Jamie! Way to go. Proud of you. I know that you'll do way better against me next time. Just take what I said into consideration and then some, and next time we'll make some epic matches happen. Thanks for the combo video material. >_>;; ... Let's play more BlazBlue later.
9. Yoshara (Wolf) - Playing Brawl+ and using Ike in it was probably one of the funnest parts of this monthly. Thanks a lot, Stephen. Good games, and I had lots of fun talking with you as per usual. That Fox is a good secondary, and keep up the mad skillz with Wolf. ^^b
9. Arsenal (Zelda/MK) - That Zelda and MK are awesome, dude. Our crew battle match was all kinds of epic. I wanna play you again in more friendlies. Smashfest somewhere or next monthly? We gotta get more time in. Good games, and thanks again for helping with recordings. Can't wait to see everyone.
9. Kuraudo (Sonic) - You beasted through Yoshara and Lime. You 3-stocked Lime's Snake and then 2-stocked him on his CP of Brinstar, with five back airs in a row. Boxob would be proud. You DI'd like a pro and lived through three Zelda USmashes at high percent. **** SON. GET BETTER. BRAGBRAGBRAGBRAGBRAGBRAGBRAGL0L0L0L0L0L0L
13. Fraser (ROB) - Man, tough break this time around... But that's okay, man. The more fair brackets we have consistently, the better you'll become. That 4th place win last monthly was nicely done though. We won't forget that. ROB scares me. X_X
13. Solaris (Samus/MK) - Papa Lesbian ftw. Seriously though, the people that played Brawl more couldn't even touch Mark. And yet YOU come in with that epic Samus and show him what's up. That was an amazing stand you took against him. Your Samus is as fun to watch in Brawl as it is to watch in Melee. The hype that takes place helps too. Good game in pools, and amazing job in crews. Come back for more Melee and Brawl, man. I'll play with you some other time!
13. Bairz (ROB) - Are you Karl? If so, you teamed with Red Comet and beat me and Zero. That was nicely done, and ROB, once again, proves to be a tough match-up for Sonic. Way to go! I wanna face you in singles or in friendlies more sometime.
13. Colin (Ness/Game & Watch) - We got lost trying to take you home, and I got pulled over for one of my illegal U-Turns shortly afterwards. ... Well. Now I know where you live. But I'm not doing that for anyone else ever again, not if they don't know directions as well as they should. Great games, Colin, and your match in pools with Jake was amazing. Holy crap I was on the edge of my seat. fadskjhfads
17. Red Comet (Lucario) - YAY LUCARIO! Impressive win over Mark's Pikachu, something that I couldn't pull off in brackets. Good game in friendlies, and when we face in bracket sometime, I'm hoping that it'll be intense. Hope to see you more. Get good with that Lucario, son! I know you can do it!
17. Chaos (Marth/Diddy) - Work on that Diddy, but don't stop getting good with that Marth, man. I love fightng Marths. Good games, dude.
17. Salamander (ROB) - SALLY MANDY! Good games in friendlies. Even if I won, I want you to know that you still were a pain in the *** to me. That's a very good thing seeing as how ROB is a bad match-up for Sonic. I can see you beating me if I don't keep stepping up my game. I mean that.
17. Tokaio (Wario) - Welcome back to the tourney scene, bro! ...even if you may have to hit the books again. D: Wish we'd play more. I wanna take on your Wario. Haven't taken one on since I faced Phantom X in Hawaii... Lucas vs. Sonic needs a rematch too.
17. Diminisht (Link/Marth) - The community can't thank you guys enough for helping put Canada's West Coast scene back on the map. We show just as much promise as East Coast does. I just know it, and you guys are going to help make us known. Can't wait to see the vids go up, and if we didn't play any friendlies, darn. If we did? Great games. Fun doubles matches too. Way to go with repping that Link, dude. Seeya next monthly, I hope!
17. IIIIRICK (Marth) - I keep seeing improvement in your Marth. Keep going and going and going, man. You'll place higher. There is nowhere for you to go but up, if you don't believe in down. You can do it!
17. Wilco (DK/Kirby) - Sucks that we didn't play again... I wanted another rematch with you after our epic set last monthly. Beastly DK, I still remember our second match. Oh god, so painful... fkjahdsf X_X Bring it back, Wilson! I know you'll beast and PR again if you step it up.
Whew! Good games, everyone! Can't wait for crew vids and for whatever else got recorded.
