I'm tired of people saying this, just because they checked out wotlk for the first couple months when nothing was out, they just automatically assume there isn't going to be anything challenging..

What do you think is baby mode about wrath? naxxramas? season 6 pvp?

Things have changed since whenever you stopped playing my friend... Heroic raids, hardmodes, season 9 pvp, Lich King released yesterday. All that **** ain't easy if a challenge is what you are looking for..

If anything, they are dumbing down cataclysm.. they are removing attributes in the game such as armor/spell penetration, expertise and spellpower and combining them into other stats for the 'tards, which actually just makes things more difficult, as the people who take the game seriously have to calculate the values for how the stats will work together. (how much spell power will be put into intellect, etc)

Not to get on your case or anything, but wow is something I take seriously, while having fun. I'm in a progression guild that is competetive with other top guilds on a very high population server, I recently picked up arena and am looking into getting more serious with that.

Sweet arguments, everyone. You all suck at melee except Jason and Caleb.

Also, I plan on picking up SSF4 and am already playing brawl.

I'm getting a new desktop as well.

Also I'm going to start playing Brawl now, and I already play a tad bit of GG. I don't really like SF4/Tekken/SC much, although out of those 3 SF4 would be my top pick. Also I'll try out Blazblu when the new one comes out.

My laptop is working out fine for me at the moment, but sometime later this year I hope to get a really decked out desktop used solely for gaming, as I'll have my laptop to use for other things. Before I do that though, I want to save away at least 1,000 to start an IRA account..

Dood, how is your guild? Ben and Grafton kinda got me a free pass into the second best guild on our server, though as you know it's a small server.

BRAWL TOURNEY FEBRUARY 7
2-6 PM @ PLAY N TRADE


Match Settings

-1v1, 3 stocks, 7 minute time limit, double elimination
-Best 2 out of 3 matches advances, with winners’, losers’ and Grand Finals being best 3 out of 5
-Items must be set to OFF and NONE
-Sudden Death is not in effect. If the timer runs out, the player with the highest number of stocks will advance. If both players have the same amount of stocks, the player with the lowest percent damage will advance.

Stages

-First stage must be a RANDOM neutral (set between Final Destination, Battlefield, Smashville, and Yoshi’s Island). However, a specific neutral may be chosen first round if both players agree to it.
-The losing player is allowed to choose the next stage for a counterpick. Allowed counterpicks include any of the above neutrals, OR any of the following: Brinstar, Castle Siege, Corneria, Delfino Plaza, Frigate Orpheon, Halberd, Jungle Japes, Lylat Cruise, Pokemon Stadium 1 & 2, & Rainbow Cruise. (All other stages are banned.)
-The winner may choose one stage to “ban” for counterpick.

Banned Tactics

-No character bans will be in effect.
-Stalling is banned. This includes Meta Knight’s Infinite Dimensional Cape, repeatedly riding the bike under the stage with Wario, repeatedly flying under the stage and back with Pit, infinite roll with Sonic under Final Destination, etc. Tournament judge has final say over whether or not a move constitutes stalling – first time is a warning, second is a DQ.
-Excessive planking (repeatedly grabbing and regrabbing the ledge with intent to run out the timer) is banned---if you suspect your opponent has been planking, you may check the end stats to see if there are over 50 ledge-grabs, in which case they may be DQed.
-Pausing and restarting a match is not allowed.

General

-Bringing your own controllers is strongly encouraged. We highly recommend standard Nintendo GameCube Controllers; any battery issues arising from wireless controllers are at your own risk. It is your responsibility to ensure your controller is in proper working condition before using it at the tournament.
-Custom control configurations must be set BEFORE the match. Any complications arising from custom control issues (including using someone else’s tag) are at your own risk.
-When you are called to a match you must immediately report to your assigned station (even if you are playing a friendly!) If you hold up the tournament by leaving when you’re supposed to play a match, you may be DQed with no refund. Ask before you leave to go somewhere!
-Match disputes (regarding planking, banned stage, etc.) must be brought up immediately after playing the match in question. It is your responsibility to do this; we cannot go back and replay a match if the tournament has already proceeded.


Play N Trade reserves the right to modify rules, schedule, fees and prizes as needed. Refunds on tournament entry fees will not be allowed if the competitor has already participated in any way.
Reposting just in case someone didn't see this, and it's kind of buried at this point. Not sure if this has a AiB page.

I don't know what rank we would be placed as, but easily in the top 30 in Blackrock, which is one of the biggest servers. Quite a few people in my guild are ranked in the top 20 gearwise for their class. I know at one point recently I was the 2nd most geared Shadowpriest on BR, I'm probably somewhere in the top 15 now.

Also Orry I don't think you understood the point of my post, I don't appreciate hearing an activity I put time and effort into being called garbage, especially from someone who I doubt even plays it enough or is even capable of end game content to have a valid opinion.

Let me put it like this. Its like having you walk up to me and say "pfft, Melee is garbage, I played it last week for an hour and it blows. SSB64 was cool back in the day though."

To be fair, Orry's complaint is one that is very common, so I doubt its groundless. Also raids were ****ing hard back a while ago, and since you didn't experience those, you can't really compare them fairly either.

Also look at it like this, you're a melee fan, you play Brawl for an hour or two and go "Wow, melee sure was faster and more technical than this" and then a person who never even played melee comes up and tells you that you're wrong, and that brawl isn't any worse in either of those aspects.

Not trying to be offensive by the way. If you enjoy it then it doesn't matter whether it really is good or not, that is unless you start comparing things.

Personally I don't know what WoW is like currently, I haven't been paying much attention to it, so I can't say I vote either way.

I can say that I do not feel any urge to start playing again though.

I'm feeling very good today after I had had been informed that I had passed two of my big tests as well as I had just got my account back in All is brawl (with a little help from Kirrrby). I'm so ready for this tournament on Sunday.
