Its an 800mhz, instead of 333mhz. ^^ atm i'm still troubleshooting, since the CPU is overheating frequently and I cant run anything large like WC3 without bluescreening before long. Other than that it seems promising. Especially for free!!! Side of the road bargain! =]

**** you!! what a bunch of luck you have. About the overheating thing, just install a fan, im sure its no big deal. If the overheating problem continues, take it to a computer store and they will probably fit some insualtion or more vent units or a higher powered fan in it.

(BTW, for those who rocked up to my Smashfest Birthday, Thank you guys soooo much for turning up! I had so much fun and felt glad that everyone got a decent intake of food/meals XD.)

i swear em, and this is the honest truth, that meal was the only thing that really kept the hotel group going. That was the only square meal we had all freaking week ... unless you count 2 double bacon burger delux's as a square meal ...

I've edited the second post in this topic to have the list of smashers in Australia

kindly replace my occupation with 'university student' and then spell Adelaide correctly. Thank you.

university is fun, i cant wait till i start driving there, cos then i wont have to catch the stupid buses which are late 99.999999999% of the time.

 

[rmusgrave]

Done.

and then spell Adelaide correctly.

What are you talking about? I used the correct spelling. =D

*Plays DS*

*Would play his DS, but didn't buy any games for it*

Yeah, I know, this post was spam. I just wanted my 500th post to be in the ATT ^^.

Happy B'day Duffman

I've been spending time out in the provinces of Nam lately, hence my Smashboards absence. I'm having a great time out here (in Dalat right now), but my urge to Smash is rising.

When I get back you guys better stop playing rubbish and get back into Smash. I need a Smashwhoring period; haven't seen a Cube since @M, which is pretty frustrating. CATS is right. If it gets out of hand and no one Smashes anymore, I will start paying people money to play me in Smash, lol. (You wish! XD)

I'll host something decent-sized and worthwhile when I get back, but it would be nice if a large scale meet is planned at someone else's place who hasn't hosted gatherings before/much.

It's good to see some @M pics posted. It's enlightening.

 

[Cronos_Rainbow]

Hey all, let me know if there's anything happening so I can get Carlos into it.
Also, I can't make it to weekday meetups, but if you have any let me know just in case I get time off (which seems pretty likely lately as my work is pretty slow this time of year)
Umm, get over WC3 already !

 

[Mic_128]

WC3. The curse from the west..

 

[Big Burn]

100 im going not

 

[Plasia]

WC3 = ultra old

 

[BladeMarth]

Me = lazy so if you want your profile thing on the first post updated, get rmusgrave to change it, all the details are now in the 2nd post -_-. its not that im lazy, it that smashboards takes like 10 mins ot load 1 page on my comp. hence, why im posting from school now ahaha.

This may have already been said, but i havent chekced previous pages -_-

[SabreAnt]

Who the hell is Mario 1234? Hack like. Anyway, we miss you Cao. Or rather, we miss your house XD Come back already. More pics coming soon, I really need to knee Hayden in the balls.

Unfortunately Mat's comment about the meal we ate at Em's place is honestly 100% true. We got very little nourishment all week compared to that day. Lots of excerise, junkfood and gaming. Mum actually said to me when i got home that I looked thinner in the face. Lol, oh well.

Plasia, you dont know anything. Just because a game isnt brand new doesnt mean its gay. We (including you) all still play smash, and its older than WC3. You just never played any maps with quite as many people as we had a couple weeks ago. Let me tell you, 10 player Hero maps are **** fun. I have more to say, but clearly its a case of the good old C B F. Ta! =]

 

[Mic_128]

I think Mario just got the wrong topic. (And how!)

C B F? Captain "Buttocks" Falcon?

SSBM is old in a good way, WC3 isnt.

I know what 10 player Hero maps are like, I used to play a bit of DotA (which is a popular 16 player hero map) when I played WC3FT. But for the most part the gameplay which makes up real WC3FT got quite tedious a while ago.

That being said, WC3FT is a good game, and even though I got tired of the standard game (after reaching level 14), I enjoy custom maps as much as anyone. In fact, I still have it installed and played a game of DotA last week.

 

[Mic_128]

According to that post, you say Warcraft is old, then list all of the good bits. WTF?

Lets get some good non-WC-related talk going here. How's everyone going at school/uni/tafe?

 

[Plasia]

The standard warcraft game is old, the custom maps are different, I hope you can fathom the difference between the two.

I'm hoping for a smash meet in Melbourne in the next couple of weeks. I havent played due to various unfortunate circumstances (smegging train) since last year!!!

 

[Divine_Crono]

Warcraft 3, IMHO, gets really boring unless you're doing custom games. Mainly because I get slaughtered when I try to play a proper game. :D

But pushing on, I've gotta say, again I find myself lucky that there are so many SSBM players in Victoria. You'll get to know my odd luck as my stay here passes through time.

Anyways, I was wondering three things for all the Victorian players here. My first is to ask if you participated in the SuperChallenge last year. My second is to ask you just how good you are at Melee. My final is to ask how much would you guys like to show off in an all-Victorian Smash tourney.

I suppose to give an idea of the tournament size, I'll explain my network of players.

I've got a few friends here, but playing them is like beating a sack of meat. There are two who stand out out that are directly linked to me, a guy named Reon and another with the alias of Syrick. Syrick has converted to F-Zero GX, but he's not too bad. reon is the only person I am unable to beat, and our matches are incredible. Reon has a larger group of friends though. He called a Smash tourney after he collected names from the SuperChallenge players that showed some talent, and though I'm sure that pretty much all of those participants won't be too hard for me to beat by now, that's still a good 15 players we had.

At this point, I'm dying for a tourney like that again. I want to know how good I really am. I get to see Reon maybe once every month or two, and he's the only one I want to play now because he can beat me.

My goal here is to get the rest of you Victorians out there into my lounge room to find someone to be even with, someone to improve with, and answer you question "How good am I? Seriously?"

I'd appreciate PM's or MSN messages, and I added all the players from the first page list that were in VIC to my MSN list. Please don't fob me off your contact list, I'm not a stalker or crazy random person. Well, not for the most part.

Oh, I've been told to edit in a profile. Here we go. :D

In Saigon.

Hey Chronos, get to see the spirit of Smash live on in VIC. Rats to you and Reon missing out on the @M Aus Tourney only a couple weeks back. But VIC only is still cool. Once I get back to Melbourne on the 7th, I think it would be excellent to get you two into a Smashfest with the Melbourne crew to see exactly where you stand. You both seem uber competitive ^^. Stick around here and you hear details of the next meet.

Get Reon and all his other crew mates to attend. Then the scene would really explode!

Most of us from Melbourne on Smashboards went to SC and yes, alot of us here are thristy for more Tournaments. People are banking on me to host something big really soon (Easter sounds good), but the gang hold meetups all the time.

 

[kupo]

OMG, Smash. Haven't played since Ryota/Perthites left Vic XD. I miss you guys...>.>

OMG again. Another Fox and Falco player XD.

Divine Crono, Yep, the vics [myself, Cronos_Rainbow, SabreAnt, CATS, CAOTIC, Duffman and Cella_lina] have attended the superchallenge. SabreAnt came 3rd [and clearly the best Samus in the smash finals <3]. Oh, and he's probably the best F-zero GX player in Aus. XD. *Wishes*

My second is to ask you just how good you are at Melee

We'd destroy everyone in smash that attended the Superchallenge ^^. We've been playing this game for 2-3 years and basically know the basic/advance skills.

My final is to ask how much would you guys like to show off in an all-Victorian Smash tourney.

HELL YEHS!
Oh man, please say you live somewhere in the South Eastern Suburbs! And host a smashfest during weekends! I'll give you lots of smashing!

It's unfortunate that you've found smashboards 2 weeks late >.>. Cronos_Rainbow organised a tournament then and people from Perth, Adelaide and Japan's Best, Captain Jack participated in the tournament [and have also got vids up on DC++].
Oh well, theres always next time [if anyone ever bothers to hold another tourney in Melb. XD].

 

[Big Burn]

hey dudes sorry i was drunk as hell and i was happy that i was at 99 posts so i posted that worthless post to get 100....

 

[Mic_128]

If you have to do a worthless post to up your post count, go to forum games.

Kupo- Awwwwwwwwwwwww

 

[SabreAnt]

Exciting news. We are glad to hear from you Divine one =p

Hope very soon to meet you greet you, then beat you. =] Well, at least the first two anyway. I'm an fzero fan. Hopefully you friend can surprise me. See you soon.

 

[Divine_Crono]

Wow, what a nice welcome from you all.

Thanks all! I'm already wanting to play. :D

 

[Kaydash]

effing victorians and thier effing competition!

just a random post from up north to say, smash, **** YEHS!

and after a bit of a dabble with Falco/Fox, who ive never seriously played but are pretty **** fun, i picked up jigglypuff instead!
surprised? i sure was!

hopefully in a few months will be making a journy to which ever city has more people to smash....anyway... down+b *ting/zoom* HAW HAW HAW

All these new eastern-staters are getting me worked up....guys, when's the next meet-up?

 

[Cubed64]

well, ryan has the car and license ... so its pretty much up to him, but seeing as some people have pokecards when the others decide to play smash, a certain someone missed out on the last meet up.

Whenever is fine with me, josh knows the drill.

chances are ill have my license by mid-april, so we could be having some north of the river smash meets!!!! that is assuming josh and kenton want to ride in the car whilst i drive.

Yah, I never knew you were Australian either till a while ago...um...G'day :******:

NG7...you diss Brisbane again and you gotta answer to me.

 

[NG7]

nonono haha. :D Brisbane is a great city. But the Smash scene here is what i was talking about.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

Unless we want it to just be a 6 player smashfest, we need to try and bring back all the potential perth contestants such as:

tim
chris
timmy
ed
evan
kalamari
roland (?)
rensa (?)

roland and rensa live in busselton and waikiki respectively, i doubt they will be able to make it, but we should still offer them the chance to come.

If we don't get some more solid players other than us 6, we are just gonna stagnate as a community.

Also, do we wanna start doing things like cash prizes (nothing drastic), money matches, low tier tourneys etc?

The unit that we could possibly hold tournaments in next door probably won't be ready in time for the easter tourney, but maybe for the one after that.

 

[Mic_128]

Well I like the sound of a low-tier tournie, and with the questions I've been getting from timmy, it sounds like he'd be interested.

highly agreed. Maybe we should plan a high grade tourney, one that is very serious. Get everyone in it, plan it for april or something far away so everyone has plenty of time to get ready/plan things/make sure they can come.

If we don't get some more solid players other than us 6, we are just gonna stagnate as a community.

heh heh heh .... stagnate....

no uni tomorrow ...... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH *rests extrememly sore legs*

 

[NG7]

Who else in here was from Brisbane besides Vegeta? I'm not normally lazy but i really don't want to read through all the pages of this thread. Just want to get a rough idea of how people there are, just in case something IS to be organised. So if you live near Brisbane, please speak up or e-mail me.

 

[Mic_128]

Look at page 1, post 2.

 

[Bedi Vegeta]

I have two friends who are avid smash players (and better than me), and I know a couple of other people who have played and are pretty good...so if there ever is a QLD tourney I could bring them...and forgive my ignorance; I've never even posted in the melee room...wtf are tiers?

 

[SabreAnt]

Blademarth (original thread starter) and 220man along with their associates all play smash in Qld. And yeah, like Mic said, look at the first page for the readouts.

I did some very sexy scaling of pics the other day, but I'm still waiting for Hayden to BACK BREAKINGLY SLAVE AWAY FOR HOURS AND HOURS IN THE ARDUOUS AND VERY TAXING TASK, OF UPLOADING PICS!!, erm... I mean click his mouse a few times. So yeah, wont be long ^^

More bnetting Josh and Em. You got that patch update yet? I'd hope so.

It's basicaly a list of characters in order of most cheap, to the characters who are the hardest to play as. Or something.

Haha! I've never seen anyone say it like that before.
