[KlTHKlN]

I actually want to, but alas, no ride and I work

 

[Quaff]

Here's me being a ******, but is ABD3 going to be hosted here in Calgary, or in Edmonton? And when is it?

 

[Stevo]

Falcos: Me, Victor, Paul
Non-Falcos: Daniel, Clarke, Ben, Brad, Levi, Simon, David, Mo

I miss marthberta. Even if you didn't play marth, you played marth.

 

[Stevo]

actually, where is carl these days?

 

[ruhtraeel]

Tyson I purposely didn't put you down cause you play Falco but also a bunch of other characters

ABD3 is in Edmonton


Ok so from 30 seconds of creeping his Facebook, Carl seems to be plotting to have a mutiny at U of A's Engineering department

 

[Rush]

Kinda want to smash, but people are lazy...myself included.

 

[ruhtraeel]

Ok well tomorrow I'll check the TFDL and see if they have a gaming library thing yet, and if they do then we can start going there

 

[lemonlau36]

I am a true Marthbertan.

Also, nobody has actually indicated to me that they're coming over tomorrow, so... should I even host?

 

[Rush]

If we weren't lazy/lived closer we could just go over to Clarke's place..

 

[GhllieShdeKnife]

=)
what makes u think i want to host ur lazy ***es.

 

[Taste]

Is everyone clear that Alberta beat down is next weeK? I almost feel like some people arn't.

 

[Stevo]

he should host another smash sunday in September sometime.

I am a true Marthbertan.

Also, nobody has actually indicated to me that they're coming over tomorrow, so... should I even host?

I would SO be there if I didn't live so damn far away and work the whole day.

 

[KlTHKlN]

Marthberta was the days when smash was good because we didn't care about smash

I wish I lived in edmonton so often

Is everyone clear that Alberta beat down is next weeK? I almost feel like some people arn't.

That happens when the host of the tournament has no public relations towards his attendees.

Not to mention, 95% of people asking about it arn't going.

 

[sleak-]

im pretty shiros been spreading the news quite well for the main games hes hosting (eg sf umvc3) but i dont think so much for the other games like melee because its just a small side event type of thing


ya ABD3! next weeeeeeek~~~~~

 

[Solaris1110]

well i'm available for smash today.

 

[Mripod128]

Or three of us

 

[Mripod128]

Hey guys, I made a request at Mac Hall for room bookings this weekend either Saturday or Sunday. It may be possible I won't get the times at all as I just requested it today. Seems better if we'd have a smashfest there than at someones house with the group size we have.

I'm thinking about trying to book some dates for late august or september, what do you guys think?

I'll keep ya'll updated if we get it or not, I'm dying to get better at Melee.

<3 Double Posting

 

[lemonlau36]

I'm not hosting today I guess. Sorry Jarrett!

 

[GhllieShdeKnife]

mripod, when will u know whether or not u have the booking?
i would be interested

 

[Tyson651]

Not going this weekend. Will be in edmonton

 

[Mripod128]

Bleh, it doesn't look like I'd be able to get a booking until late August on the 25th at the UofC. Would anyone know of any other places we could book a room other than Mac Hall? I would host but my basements small and crowded, and It'd just wouldn't be an all around good idea.

I wouldn't mind hosting some of these events I just need to find a good place to do it thats cheap and cost effective, bring some drinks, etc, in return teach me Melee?? :D

 

[KlTHKlN]

Getting an event location is easy if we pay, but none of us want to pay for a smashfest.

Part of what I've been doing by the way, has been contacting businesses so we could maybe get into a thing like saturday-night barsmash or something, you guys know barcraft, right?

basically the same idea.

Gimme time, anyone interested in legitimately helping can message me, but I'm actually speaking business venture-wise, smaller term help will be come later. (sorry about being secretive but it's kind of required as I can promise NOTHING)

 

[x After Dawn x]

Not going this weekend. Will be in edmonton

my *****

if you come in on friday, me victor and some others are gonna watch batman and smash afterwards if you wanna join :3

i think i'm gonna pass on abd3 too



whoa when did they censor black people

 

[GhllieShdeKnife]

@kithkin
i dont really know how that would work, i dont really see it being that attractive for a business. smashers are very loud and from what i have seen i dont think many drinks would be ordered. i would like to do something like this but i think we have to make it more attractive to business owners.
i think gaming/card shops would be a smart move as they can be completely empty some nights and could be a very small entry fee or just have a couple people pitch in(i would)
i also think most of the smashers would be very comfortable there/ not excluding the minors as we need all we can get
just my rant( i hope some of it is productive)

i already watched batman, and ill be hanging with friends till supper time at least.

dunno how late you guys smashing it up

edit: and i was going through my photobucket pics and some reason i still have this lol

 

[Stevo]

it's funny.... I only learned about the whole "scumbag steve" thing yesterday.
and I also visited reddit for the first time yesterday too.

I have no idea how to navigate that site.... I just gave up after a minute.

 

[Alphicans]

So who would be down to enter a ProjectM tournament end of August? I think a bunch of the brawl players would enter. I can book the same room we use for brawl tournaments and we can have it there.

EXACTLY what my first experience was



I don't know how to play P:M

 

[Stevo]

I'll play P:M

I will suck at it, but I'll play

it has to be after the 25th of August though

 

[KlTHKlN]

@kithkin
just my rant( i hope some of it is productive)

I appreciate the constructive criticism, ironically though, I already knew all of that. I was using barcraft as an example since it's already successfull, I'm already talking to a couple places (ie: legion tabletop gaming, legacy, and a few others) about what could be done, but ultimately in a business world it's about what you can get, so it's kind of a thing I've gotta work through the communities,

for the time being I am going to be publishing a website type thing with connections to local media and gaming interests, including a forum and more to be explained later.

Ultimately it's a stretch, but a stretch I hope people will appreciate

I have no idea how to navigate that site.... I just gave up after a minute.

The whole site is designed to utilize the fact that you don't want to hit the back button much at all, so you are expected to open a million tabs, therefore forcing you to never leave the site via related links on every page

So who would be down to enter a ProjectM tournament end of August? I think a bunch of the brawl players would enter. I can book the same room we use for brawl tournaments and we can have it there.

Project M is quite fun, but as far as tournaments go it is really flawed.

That being said I feel it's early enough that it would be a laugh riot, So I approve of a tournament.

Just know that Lucario is 100% more broken than metaknight ever was

 

[Alphicans]

Flawed is a very vague word... Not sure if you've played the second release of project M but lucario is not broken at all.

 

[Geenareeno]

Q_Q We're most likely not coming. No vehicle... sad day. Maybe next time.


Also Ike is more broken than Lucario.

 

[Crusayer]

Wow lol.

Guess I'll just learn marvel then

 

[ruhtraeel]

I'm already learning Brawl, I don't want to learn another new game like P:M lol

 

[Alphicans]

Well you should want to learn because I think P:M is a really good chance for a bit of a revival of the scene, especially for the melee players.

 

[Crusayer]

I dunno why you're thinking learning P:M is hard. Brawl is an entirely different game and play style from melee. You're doing the exact same thing in P:M from melee anyway, there's just more match ups to learn. It's not like the 1 frame difference is CRIPPLING to your game.

 

[ruhtraeel]

It's not like the 1 frame difference is CRIPPLING to your game.

IT IS

I would probably need to pick another character to play again, probably Ike or something

 

[Alphicans]

It really doesn't make much of a difference... I think it's in your head tbh.

 

[Crusayer]

I find it impossible to believe that Falco is no longer Falco due to 1 frame of extra delay.

That's like saying PAL Melee is an entirely different game than NTSC melee.

 

[ruhtraeel]

Melee's melee, I'm not going to use a Melee character in a different game

I'll just find some other character to try out

Lucario looks interesting but I don't want to put nearly as much effort into learning that game as I did with Falco/Fox in Melee, I'll probably just stick with Ike or some other non-technical character I've never played before
