Any Smashers in Cambridge?!

[FabulousGeorge]

Is anybody about from the 1st to the 20th of April? Hopefully I'm not quite as bad as I used to be

 

[L-J]

damn i missed this - i had a spare controller as well :/

i'm now going home tomorrow so it looks like next term now.

george i may be up for some of that period, i'll post on here if i am.

 

[sinai420]

Well I'm free all today if ur going home tomorrow?

 

[Akagami]

anyone going to be free thursday?

 

[DarkPhoenix87]

I live near Cambridge, and I have a pretty flexible work schedule. I'm sure my wife would like to see me out of the house too.

Can someone bring me up to speed on how the Cambridge community looks? About how many "regulars" are there? Or is it just one-on-ones and not many gatherings? I would like to dip my feet into the water by meeting with a few people rather than just one, takes some of the pressure and nervousness out of the equation.

What happened to this potential fest? ;p

 

[gm jack]

During the uni term time, there are now 4/5 melee players in cambridge. However, it is quite rare for us all to be playing together. Unfortunately, next term is exams, so we won't be free often for quite a while, but after everyone finishes, I'm sure everyone will be up for a few games sometime.

@Jolteon.

Apparently, the exams coming up are important (especially for the others), and people want to do work instead of playing smash. We might be able to sort something after our exams, but we'll see how that goes.

 

[Bullet Bill]

would be awesome if Cambridge hosted

 

[Jolteon]

I remember this being planned at the start of the year though.

!!

 

[rustediron]

would be great to have a big fest, but sadly we're limited to 1 tv and one lcd monitor :S

 

[L-J]

I'm back in Cam for 2 weeks.

 

[FabulousGeorge]

Back on Wednesday for a couple of weeks. Anyone up for playing?

 

[L-J]

I will be yeah

 

[Bullet Bill]

LJ, Hugo, would you be up for a smashfest round mine on the 21st?

 

[rustediron]

Sorry, it's a bit far from Cambridge (I'd be back at uni by then) and I don't travel much for smash anymore
Definitely want to see you sometime though, if you ever come up for one of the London events I'll try and be there

 

[L-J]

Yeah same reasons as Hugo for me I'm afraid - plus revision for finals has already begun in earnest.

 

[L-J]

George let me know when you wanna play. I'm free every day but Saturday over the next week or so.

 

[FabulousGeorge]

I think I can do most times. Is Monday whatever time good for you? I assume it's OK if Tim (Huntzie) comes as well? Yours or mine?

 

[L-J]

Monday's fine, any time from mid-afternoon onwards. And yep more the merrier. I'd rather mine if you guys can get here easily.

 

[FabulousGeorge]

Are you living in the same place this year?

 

[L-J]

I'm still in college but a different room - E6 in Old Court. To get there go into college through the visitor's entrance (on the side road 'Queens' Lane', just off Silver Street), turn immediately right and you'll see E staircase on your right. I'm at the top on the right.

 

[FabulousGeorge]

OK, see you around 3ish

 

[rustediron]

Back from the 15th guys

 

[L-J]

I'm not back now till the 22nd

 

[rustediron]

oh ok lol .

 

[gm jack]

I'm back from tomorrow, so something in the days after that sounds good.

 

[rustediron]

awesomeeeee

 

[L-J]

Also back tomorrow.

 

[L-J]

I already said to Jack (he's in the same boat) that basically I'm free almost every evening until exams get very close (working all through the day and stopping at 8/9pm). So if anyone wants to play any evening chances are I will be free and Jack too. Post on here as per. Also I'm downloading Project M's 2nd demo version (apparently it's good) if anyone fancies trying that out.

 

[rustediron]

Yes to Project M, I was planning on downloading it myself
I can probably do any day this week apart from thursday

 

[rustediron]

Project M is pretty good

 

[L-J]

I just played it - the brawl characters kinda seem to suck compared to the Melee ones but that's almost certainly cus I don't know what I'm doing with them. Only sucky thing is it's in black and white on my TV (there's no PAL version available and my Brawl is luckily NTSC lol). Tonight is good?

 

[rustediron]

having still not had any sleep since I made the post above, I'd rather give tonight a pass
Is tomorrow any good?

 

[gm jack]

Either/or/both for me. Getting to the phase where I am going to be doing very little but revision, and smash will be a good excuse to not revise all evening.

 

[L-J]

alrite hugo tomorrow is good. jack feel free to come this eve also from 9.30ish (football's on till then).

EDIT make that 10.30

 

[rustediron]

Shall I bring my VGA box? Project M should play on colour on your monitor

EDIT: did you try forcing PAL60 in the GeckoOS options?

 

[L-J]

Didn't know there was force PAL60 option. Just tried it and it's...interesting to say the least. Colours are ****ed up, game is clearly running with slow down. So yeah bring your VGA box lol.

 

[rustediron]

What time is good? 10.30 again?

 

[L-J]

9.30 is good.

 

[gm jack]

When are people free from this evening and over the weekend?
