Syko, that's cool, hahah... I was wondering what happened. As for the time... well, best case scenario, about 6 - 7 hours. Worst case, 10 - 11. I don't think it will take that long if we're well organized.

I got you in, Animus. ;)

Vodka, that sounds great. My friend Will has a car, so I'll talk to him about it. In fact, I can pretty much promise we can give you a lift (I'll pay the gas if it's an issue).

So, you'll probably need to stay somewhere on Friday and Saturday? I don't think it'll be a problem. We have a couch with your name on it.
I'm not sure if i'll be coming friday or saturday yet, but i'll make sure to tell you in time, as well as flight info or whatever. But thanks =)

i'd be down with setting up money matches now. this way its blind and we cant back out due to fear on the day of the tourney. Now, with that said...any challengers? $5-$10 games?

i have a fine i need to pay off so I'm hoping to win as much money as i can at this thing.

if things go they way i think they're gonna go, that may be a foreshadow of the actual finals of the tourney. i'll be willing to play that once the tourney is over, dont want you knowing too much about me before the tourney begins.

Looks like we have our first official money match!

There is no way to tell if we are going to face each other in the tournament, but I accept to do it at the end if you want it that way. :)

Vodka, there's a bit of a snag... my girlfriend is a bit sketched out about you staying with us... which is reasonable, considering all I know about you is your screen name and post count.

I'm not sure I can promise you that couch right now... but maybe if we do a bit of a background check, it would help. Have you ever been to any other major tournaments? Anybody that can vouch for you? A/S/L? Pictures? Whatever?

Background check? Perfectly understandable. Hm, where to begin?

-I'm part of the largest thread of SWF, which is the montreal thread. Everybody there knows me to some extent and they can all say that whenever I go to their place, I give due respect to the people and house. Quick list of tournaments that i've attended in the montreal region:

-No mercy vs the world
-Smash 'till you drop
-Smash For Fun
-Smash 'till you drop 2

-To a greater scale, i've travelled countless amount of times in Ontario, namely to Ottawa and Toronto. Most people in the Ottawa and Toronto can vouch for me probably. Some names:

-Fogel
-Lanowen
-Ganonpwn
-Jagg
-Delorted
-Dice
-Locke)
-Rimi

list goes on.

As far as big tournaments go, Last year i've went to OC2 in California along with chesterr01 and vwins and this year i've went to Melee FCD (In Indianna) and OC3.

Just like Syko posted, you can youtube some random vids of me from different tournaments such as twilight of smash 1-2-3, smash 'till you drop 1-2 and Trans-Canada tournament.

I'm 20, I live in St-Jerome which is a bit north of Montreal. I go to College when i'm not on summer break.
Picture? lol, http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c132/MikeMonkey/P6180012.jpg
That is me at OC3, with chesterr01 to my left. You can see palmers and my inn n out drink!

That's pretty much it. Pretty big post but whatever. I understand how she can feel about it, but honestly, i'm just a big kid that loves to smash. I'm very dedicated and I think that travelling to Halifax to have the honor to play with you guys is a great occasion to meet people and discover new skills in Canada!

:)

Vodka man, the effort is awesome, but it seems that it shall be in vain. My room-mates are also opposed to you staying overnight. Paranoid bunch. :(

Really sorry to get your hopes up, but... it looks like I'll have to make it up to you down the road.

I can relate to where your people are coming from, my parents are exactly the same way.
I hope you can still make it somehow, pkmvodka.

It's understandable. But does that affect the possibility of getting a lift from the airport/back to it? Because then i'll just leave on the same day.

Concerning Wobbling... I have not banned wobbling, but that doesn't mean you won't piss off alot of people if you use it. But no, it isn't banned. It's not a glitch, it's not a stall... if you can really pull of wobbling, then you may use it

And Vodka... Wow, if you'd still like to come... then I'll make that arrangement.

See when your flight arrives and leaves before you buy the tickets if you can, just so we know if we can do it... I'll have to be at the tourney spot around 10 or 11 to help set up, Atlantic time, and we may go late to wrap things up, so let's figure that part out before you spend the cash.

And quick question... you are aware... that the top prize is only like, $180? Like Syko's amounts were way off...

If you don't mind me asking, are you rich, or does one of your relatives work for an airline? Or are you just that crazy for Smash Bros?

My plane ticket is going to be free of charge, because my mother can get me tickets basically. I just pay the Taxes. :)

Hey man, sorry... I thought this could work out, but now I'm not so sure. My friend with the car isn't even sure he's going to have it that weekend, nor does he really want to drive all the way to the airport tournament morning... besides that, alot of my crew want to keep it local, at least for our first tournament, before we get into inviting people from far away.

And on a minor note, 33 people really ****s up the brackets :p

So while I really appreciate the interest - it's really cool, actually - I don't think this is the best time for it. Sorry to drag you on like this, man.

You guys should have a seperate bracket for PKM where he faces all 32 guys one by one, if he wins he goes to the finals and wins the moneyz. lol. xD just playing around. Good luck with this tournament.


PKM! Come to Toronto man! We'll like, host stuff for you :].

Nizbel, maybe... at this point, it depends on if anyone drops out, 'cause 32 is our limit for two reasons: one, brackets are easy with 32. and second, I'm worried out fitting even 32 people in this venue.

I'm calling up everyone this weekend to make sure they're still in... if anyone drops (which is possible), I'll let you know.

And again Vodka, I'm really sorry about this... I hope I can make it up to you down the road.

Hehe, no, I can't wobble yet. I've been trying, but I probably won't be able to do it anytime soon. I was just curious. that's all.

For the tournament, can I change my tag to LAMB?
My name is Nick, in case you need to know.

Syko, you's all changed up. Ding!

Yeah, it's fine. I think HOPS is out (which sucks, 'cause he would have been my doubles partner in friendlies), so you're in for sure Niz.
