**** Mic - your sig's a pisser, but it's such a low quality!

hahaha. Makes it funnier I guess.

Are you proposing we all have a standard set of @M banners, in similar vein to those MOAST ones? I could always muster one up as long as its not a direct rip. I like making sigs.

e.g. the one below is a Photoshop one. It's 'cutty pasty' to the max! ^^

PS Em - err... worst Falco ever? Cough, wheeze* (it's probably me...)

No way. I've already challenged Em to that title, and I aim to get it. ;)

But... what about my uber cool sig? I can't spoil that...

Ahah! I know!

EDIT: I like text based banners. :)

... I'm so sad ...

Sunday now? I can come on Fri, but there is a slight problem. Mum or Dad cant take me because they are on their anniversery holiday. How about me and Bryce catch the train and then we walk to your place.(like your mum mentioned one time) That way, everybody is happy(except for me and bryce cos we have to do exercise). How does that sound? Oh, and is the tourney around twelve again?

ATTENTION!
The FTS3 Perth tournament has been postponed, and is no longer on Sunday, but on WEDNESDAY the 8th. This is to try and boost numbers as sunday has turned out to be an inconvenient day for quite a few people.

If wednesday is just as bad, I think i'll be able to push for thursday or friday, but its getting harder as we are preparing for our trip overseas.
Roland and Kalamari will not be able to come, kal has school and roland does not have his liscence to drive just yet (will by highly possible january tourney)

I'll give most of you a call anyway. But I shouldve mentioned to most it was probably going to be postponed.

Wednesday the 8th at josh's house ..... can it be done ........ YES!!! Mum says she may be able to drive me... but the whole major operation thingy may limit her drving range... so i might need a lift. Man, i cant wait to get my license.

Leavers was cool.... all the people in my group sucked at smash so i owned them all with every character, then we played mario kart DD and i owned them in that, then we put on Jedi knight and i owned them in that ..... then everyone gave up and got wasted while i sat back and laughed at their drunken behaviour. Apart from that.... there is nothing much else to tell that couldnt get me landed in prison.

Now i have to get a job ... what fun.....

Good luck to everyone tomorrow, i think we'll be playing round robin again, but making use of both TVs for it. Ryan, im hoping you can bring your cube like last time? mat's top tier vcr will be joining us once again and also everyone don't forget to bring a controller.
I also recommend you eat before you come because there will be chips and solo cans, but thats about it.
Also, I think we'll just record matches between the regulars. But we'll see what happens.
cya at 12 tomorrow

TOP TIER!!!!

Originally by Quetzalcoatl:

YEHS!!! It is so top tier it is scary. By popular demand my vcr will be making a special appearance and it will be taping the matches at 60hz, so never fear!!

Josh ... if there are 2 tv's running, then we will need 2 vcr's if we want all the matches to be taped, so you might want to find another one, cos despite my vcr's uber top tierness, it cant be hooked up to 2 tv's and record simulatneously.

FTS3 Results!

It seems that no one posted the day of the tourney, probably cos we were dead tired from all the smash. However I wake up in the morning to give you the results of FTS3.

We had 3 new contestants this time, Ed who used link, Ed's brother John who used ice climbers and Timmy who also used mostly ice climbers. The regulars were overall impressed with their skill given they have never been to a tourney, all of them attempted wavedashing, and I saw timmy L canceling as well so they're off to a good start and will probably get good fast I think.

With Bryce sorely missed, there were only 8 competitors in all, but it worked out to an average length round robin tourney.

So here are the results: (sorry about mic_129 lol)

1st - Josh (Quetzalcoatl)
2nd - Ryan (rmusgrave/Bringer)
3rd - Kenton (TheStitchface)
4th - Mathew (Cubed64)
5th - Mic (mic_128)
6th - Ed (Boognish)
7th - John
8th - Timmy

Mic and Ed had to fight for 5th place as they had the same amount of wins, and so did John and Timmy who had to fight for 7th.

Congratulations to Ryan who achieved sound victories over Kenton and Mat. Speaking of which, Kenton and Mat had very close matches that went into a 3rd round with 1 stock remaining.
Mat also got revenge on Mic, and come out victorious after a nail biting very high percent finish. (Although it did not go into a 3rd round, still v. exciting (especially for them)).

The finals were very exciting and some of the matches were dc++ worthy if I can remember, I'll have to go through the tape and check if we weren't rolling everywhere =P. Good game Ryan, you'll do fine in Melbourne.

After the tourney was over, we decided to do a team tourney, were we paired up with people based on rankings, where 1st went with 8th and 2nd went with 7th etc. Here are the results:

1st - Josh and Timmy (Peach - Jigglypuff team)
2nd - Ryan and John (Yoshi - Ice Climbers team)
3rd - Kenton and Ed (Sheik - Link team)
4th - Mat and Mic (Falco - Samus team)

If any of those characters are wrong let me know, i'll edit.

The team tourney was actually very fun because it was very even with the way the teams were made. My team with Timmy almost always played into the 3rd round were counter staging and working together was crucial. Timmy aimed some rests and I slapped him out of it, which was our general strategy and worked fairly well.

There was also a Metroid Prime 2 screening happening in the other room, which at one point looked like the tourney was being forgotten about. But we got back on track and had 2 people playing their match while others played metroid prime 2, or watched either the match or mp2.

It was a fun and long day, but I hope timmy, ed and john all consider coming back for another tourney and even for some smash fests because they can all already do advanced techniques. Thanks for coming everyone.

Lastly, mum and dad have bought the 4 units to the side of our house so the next tourney might be in one of the units which would be very convenient. I'll work on convincing mum about it. But its also a good place for the melbourners to stay if they ever want to come back to Perth. *nudge*

If anyone wants to come over and play smash, just ask btw, im usually not doing anything (lol), so just give me a ring or ask me on msn. I'm always willing to play.

yay!!!

id like to thank josh for hosting another sucessful tourney, and with the skill levels shown in those matches, the next tourney is one to look forward to!

God **** kenton and your chain abusing!! and your ice climbers ... ARGH!!! Ill get you next time ... and i wouldnt mind putting that last match on dc++, it was a good one. We will forget about the ic match .. cos that was bad for everyone involved.

Mat also got revenge on Mic, and come out victorious after a nail biting very high percent finish. (Although it did not go into a 3rd round, still v. exciting (especially for them)).
YEHS!!!! That last match was a nail biter .. but i got the final f-smash!! that would be another good one to put on dc++ (find a capture card you lazy bum josh!!)

There was also a Metroid Prime 2 screening happening in the other room, which at one point looked like the tourney was being forgotten about. But we got back on track and had 2 people playing their match while others played metroid prime 2, or watched either the match or mp2.
yes ....... MP2 ...... *drools* ... i want it soooo bad!! the multiplayer is surprisingly good, so i cant wait to play 1 player

Lastly, mum and dad have bought the 4 units to the side of our house so the next tourney might be in one of the units which would be very convenient. I'll work on convincing mum about it. But its also a good place for the melbourners to stay if they ever want to come back to Perth. *nudge*
your parents have bought more property?? ...... alright!! now we have no excuse as to the numbers of people at the tourney!! our next target: 30 people!!

im usually not doing anything (lol),
you can spend that free time finding a capture card, cos all the taped matches are useless until we get one of those, so get a move along.

Josh, if you can give a computer store a call (Net Solutions is a good example :p) and see if they have any portable USB capture cards, or if they can order them in. Although they cost more, it won't void your warranty having me install it ;). That is, unless you can get it installed under warranty somehow...

Or your warranty is voided some other way :D



yay!!!

I second that! It was extremely fun there yesterday, and I enjoyed every minute of it. Yoshi dished out some ownage, and got owned some as well. That's the way I like to play :)

Congrats to everyone at the tournament, you all did really well. There were surprises and gasping everywhere. Twas great!



And now, my next obstacle is the melbourners. Prepare to own or be owned.:chuckle:

Dammit! Josh, I know I wasn't in the top four, but at least get the name right!? Who is Mic_129? I hate that guy!

Everyone else, good matches, blah blah Bryce, Blah blah owned something, ect.

Hey, I'm still alive and breathing... sorta. Got myself addicted to World of Warcraft so I haven't been on messageboards much of late.

Anywho, sorrys Caotic + friend who came to the marathon and we were unable to free the room up from those DDR pads and random DDR girls that held the room captive. :p

On saturday, i'm going to be off on a plane to burma, after a while in burma we are going to thailand. I'm going to be away for just under a month, (returning January 12). I hope that you don't miss me all too much cos i know you will =P.
Anyways, I hope that the perthites don't slack off with their practice while I'm away, cos when I get back, prepare yourselves for FTS4!
We'll verify a date when I get back, but we hopefully might be able to have it in one of the units next door to my house. Hopefully we can also get everyone who couldn't come last time.

I also think that we should do a few money matches, nothing over the top though, stuff like <$5 (ie, wussy bets) unless both people agree of course but I won't be held responsible for your $50 loss, I just provide the venue and refreshments! (and assorted junk food for kenton)

Anyway, If I don't manage to speak to everyone tomorrow, I bid you all farewell for a month, and I hope you keep yourself well and play lotsa smash. I trust that all the organisations for @M will come along well, don't let me down! Also a merry christmas and happy new year for all cos I won't be hear to wish you for that.

Bye!

I second that. Why would you consider refusing the Feb tourney? Nooooo! Do it! We need you!

PS - I hope you don't mean this Friday Cella - it's Christmas Eve. That's like family bonding time, aka anti-Smash time XD!

Cella, if people do come, then by all means, we'll change it the date. I'd rather have the whole group on the day than having half the people turning up for the next.

Uh, yeah, that's if you're talking about the coming Friday...>_>

Heck, I don't even know if people will even bother turn up to the meet-up i planned originally. You're all tight *** lazy b!tches if you guys don't even bother making the effort!

Oh yea...see if I care if I don't turn up for @M. ><

Yeah...you heard it ><;;

*weilds a Giant Knife in a Pyramid Head-like manner*

I love you all! =>

Lol, Cella you hack. The day after I made my last post here, I came over and ended up playing more matches with you than I did with Shaz. =p Shaz wanted to watch shows about String Theory and Alien races. I would've rather been playing smash, but it seemed to me that it was kind of a thing that Bruno and Shaz do together so I didnt say nuthin.

Hey its Christmas this Saturday. Already. What do you know.. sure crept up fast. Also, what meetup do you mean Em? The one about the Monday after Christmas? Or something. I'm a little too tired to put the pieces together. I bent my Wookiee. I think I remember Shaz saying something about n2c not doing all nighters except for weekends and friday nights.. I think. Better to ask him.

I went to the city today, it was fun. Havent been on my own before. Without a map. Quite the adventure. But I kick a$$ so I didnt have any worries. I bought myself the 2nd boxset of Naruto. (me and mum have finished watching the 1st one together, and now shes hooked lol) Good times.
