So what's the haps here? Do we have to vacate the premises right after this thing is over, or will there be time for some friendlies and such?
If for some reason this runs over into the next day, which I hope it won't as it shouldn't really, then yes people will have to leave. Otherwise you can stay and have friendlies.

Alrighty~!

$MM, anyone?

Best of 5, MLG rules! (No Onnett, MK, MK II), whole dollar amounts please!

If you want a specific character matchup, lemme know! I play Fox, Falco, C. Falcon, Sheik, and Marth!

I'm also accepting $1 Falcon Futbol matches! (For those of you who don't know what that is, just ask!)

Bring it!

Oh, and also ... Zjiin .. what are the rules for the DoubleMint Challenge? I wanna sign up for it!

Haha. It's 4 stock match, team attack off, my two characters vs your one at the same time.
Stages that can be played are FD, DL64, Stadium and Corneria.

In case you're not sure what it's all about, you can check it out here.

Falcon Futbol, also known as Falcon Soccer, is a 1v1v1 Timed-Match where 2 human players each select Captain Falcon, and then set a Lv1 CPU as Kirby.

The stage? FD only.

Each player chooses to defend a side. Points are scored by KO-ing the Kirby off the other player's SIDE of the map. Up and down KO-s are out-of-bounds. The player with the higher score wins when the timer runs out. Ties are broken in "overtime" play.

ONLY KICK MOVES ARE ALLOWED!

If you use a grab, jab, or any type of 'hand' move, it is a hand-ball, and as a penalty you must run off the side of the stage and kill yourself.

Futbol is a full-contact sport, which means you may hit the other player; HOWEVER, if you hit the other player with a slide tackle (Falcon-Kick), it is a 'foul', and you must run off the side of the stage and kill yourself!

IN THIS VERSION OF FALCON FUTBOL, GOAL-TENDING IS LEGAL! This means you MAY use your Up-B to grab Kirby (and Kirby only) in your own end zone (off-stage only) without suffering a penalty!

Any questions?

Wins aren't counted by +1 and -1 that the game keeps track of during the timed match.

Players only score by KO'ing kirby off the side they are attacking, just like in soccer.

That means both players (or a referee) has to keep track of the score.

The winner is the one who scores most with Kirby.

I may be able to make it, depends on how drugged up I am after my surgery on Thursday and if I can get a ride down there. I'll let you know if I can make it, or should I just show up?

Just show up, it's fine. Hope you can make it.

*On a side not, what is up with this pikachu theme and background music. It's annoying.

Alright, here's my number just in case you have trouble finding the place:
562-774-6412

In case you can't reach me, my friend's number who will be hosting this as well is:
773-504-6354


Just tell us it's for the tournament and we'll try to help in any way.

Also, people should bring their id's. Our living quarters aren't really a dorm (not part of campus) but we are subsidized by the school which involves us having to check people in.

One more thing, there should be parking on the streets in the surrounding area, but in case you can't find any or get frustrated, there is a parking garage on 55th and ellis. Here's a link:

Parking Garage Map

I hope to see you all here.

Is anyone near me going to this?

Eddie?
Damian?
Silly Fro?
Yeah, I'm making this, and I was gonna ask Eddie when i saw him on weds if he was too. Although he's such a forum troll that he's probably reading this as we speak and just not replying.
