Thanks!

 

[Pitzer]

Im ready for this.

 

[AllyKnight]

Only 169 for Brawl Singles and 4 days remaining to register? C'mon Brawlers, step it up! Let's make this the biggest event and break all records once again. Go go go go.

I doubt we'll break last year's records for Brawl. Alot of Canada isn't going from my Region. We have a stronger OoC attendance but I just know alot of people that are being babies about last year. but if we do. ****.

 

[crismas]

I'm pretty sure Brawl will hit at least 400 if not over.

 

[KoRoBeNiKi]

I'm pretty sure Brawl will hit at least 400 if not over.

I wonder how it will just about double in a few days. I know smashers are late but THAT late?

 

[Nintendude]

Melee and brawl people step it up a bit more. A LITTLE note from the smash 64 section



In terms of our international attendance
We have:
2 players from Brazil
5 players from Canada,
1 player from Mexico
3 players from Japan

in other words, 11 of us are from Out of country, and only a third of us are from NJ/NY

Notes about the Japanese players:
Ruoka Danchon: Falcon player. Often goes to the final top 8 phase of the National Tournaments. Widely regarded as the best Falcon in Japan.
Nangoku: Ness/Falcon player. One of the top of both characters

This is so hype. As far as I know, there's never been a high level meeting between North American, South American, and Japanese players in this game EVER, other than Isai's travels over the years, and this game has been out a long freaking time.

Honestly, I might be more hype for 64 than for Melee.

 

[crismas]

There's a ton of people who haven't registered yet. And last year it just about doubled in the last two days of reg.

 

[Ori_bro]

Werent youmacon and NEC both qualifiers? I got 7th at both but only have 10 total points. I thought it was like 8 points for 7th

Thanks!

If I want to volunteer but I'm signed up for some events, do I only select the days I don't have an event on? I would like to volunteer the three days if possible.

 

[crismas]

You're fine to sign up for any days you wish. But if you know you're going to be focused on playing/warming up on a certain day more than you would volunteering then it's best to say what days you'd be able to help out more.

 

[Ryobeat]

I already filled out the volunteer thing, but I want to change it from "All 3 days" to "Friday Only". Who would I ask?

 

[crismas]

I'll take note of it.

 

[Player-1]

qualifier points are transferable right?

 

[Alex Strife]

of course you can pay the $200 transfer fee XD

 

[GDX]

Youmacon was not a qualifier. NEC was.

Aww shucks

 

[Alex Strife]

Counted

3 Japanese for 64
5 Japanese for Melee
14 Japanese for Brawl

22 Japanese players confirmed for Apex OMG

 

[KoRoBeNiKi]

2013 Qualifier Rankings:

http://www.apex-series.com/results/2013-qualifier-rankings/

That melee list is a reductio of the whole apex qualifier points idea.

Dazwa above KK? M2K above Armada? KevinM above Axe? Kage below...everyone?

 

[Shiny Mewtwo aka Jigglysir]

That melee list is a reductio of the whole apex qualifier points idea.

Dazwa above KK? M2K above Armada? KevinM above Axe? Kage below...everyone?

The Brawl list is the same. Most of Japan's top players have less than 32 points, including 9B, Kakera, Mikeneko, Nietono and Earth.

Almost all of West Coast's players have very few points because of the lack of qualifiers over there.

Atlantic North players have a **** ton of points because there were so many qualifiers in that region.

 

[darkatma]

Eh, qualifiers are whatever anyways. If you're good you're gonna wreck your pool.

 

[Dekillsage]

aaaaaaaaa rabble rabble rabble

The Apex qualifier points list isn't meant to be any sort of representation about who is better than who. It is a system designed to promote attendance at Road to Apex events and give an incentive to players who spend the time and effort to go to the Road to Apex event(s) in their own region. The qualifier points will act as guidelines for seeding, not a strict ranking.

Dazwa above KK? M2K above Armada? KevinM above Axe? Kage below...everyone?

To be fair Dazwa is Dazwa (see: Dazwa) and Kage has lost to MattDotZeb multiple times.
