BoLT Presents: Crusade! Fredericksburg, VA Jan. 31, 2014

[II Bolt II]

First things first.
I want to thank everyone for coming out. It was great seeing familiar faces and many new ones. I apologize for the amount of time it took to get things underway, and due to major confusion with conflicting Game Haven TOs trying to do my job with registration (Long story behind that, but willing to go into it if you're curious), things didn't move as quickly or smoothly as I had hoped. I thank you all for your patience and assure you the next event will not take nearly as long. For those of you that have attended my tournaments in the past, they usually run quickly and smoothly and this one was just a fluke. For the next event (which we are planning on doing monthly) I am shooting for a mid Afternoon start time probably around 3:00pm on a Friday or Sunday, not 5:00pm to avoid rush hour traffic and heavy venue traffic.

I want to thank Skywalker for bringing the livestream for us to stream Finals/Grand Finals and a very special thanks to ChuDat, Arcadia, and Immad for assisting me with Seeding. Seeing as I've been out of the scene for so long, I only had outdated knowledge on players and you guys helped me out tremendously. The turnout was a lot better than I had expected with a large local showing and plenty of veteran players and I'm glad to bring Smash back to Fredericksburg.

I hope everyone had a good time none the less. Once again, thanks to everyone for coming out, and I hope to see you guys next month! Shoutouts later when I'm not half asleep.

--Reserved for TO--

 

[LiNKoMAC]

It's Linkomac damnit!

 

[Time/SpaceMage]

And it's TimeSpaceMage here. Like, an emphasis on "Time Mage" but with Space added, as opposed to an emphasis on "Spacetime" with "mage" added. Time gets top billing.

Ah whatever, I won my first tournament set! Me vs Skywalker was a stream match too, so I'll be looking up what I look like assuming it comes to YT. Second round put me against K-9 which didn't end well, and in Loser's I went pretty even with an Olimar/Kirby (sorry, forgot the name) which was down to the last stock each on game 3 when I SD'd trying to do a ledgehop mixup o.o;

Oh well, I still made a big improvement for one week! Also picked up a ton during some rapidfire Melee friendlies afterwards. I will definitely be entering Melee singles next time at this rate

Oh and speaking of stream, if you keep watching you can see where I reminded Chu Dat and Milkman of how to play as Giga Bowser. There's also some badass Turbo Shiek dittos where we were laughing our ass off at how disgusting she was.

 

[MysteryRevengerson]

Good **** to everyone that came out, glad to see VA show up with some numbers!

Also, good games to everyone I played in friendlies and in tourney, had a blast. With two Lucas mains I'm sure everyone got a good dose of Lucas at this tournament.

Also, cut Bolt some slack, he posted this **** at 4AM, haha

 

[Kenrawr]

With two Lucas mains I'm sure everyone got a good dose of Lucas at this tournament.

I'll say!

[Arcadia157]

Ggs to all! I played against a lot of new, talented faces. Hopefully you guys come to stuff elsewhere in the region.

Bolt - Thanks for TOing and supplying me with that water. It really got me through my last few sets of the night.
Forute - Study up on a lot of Marth tactics from Melee. Just about everything Marth does in Melee can translate over to PM just as well or even better.
Yars - Keep it up with those jank characters of yours. You seem to know them pretty well and it'll catch a lot of people off guard.
All of the Richmonders - I don't deserve to be your President ;_;

 

[LiNKoMAC]

All of the Richmonders - I don't deserve to be your President ;_;

For what it's worth, I think you're a great captain. -Mulan

 

[Fred_Gurtz (Cobalt)]

13th in PM and 9TH in melee?! What is this?? Must have gotten super lucky.

EDIT: WeedWizard OP.

 

[B0NK]

Good **** Chu! -_^b

 

[MALVM MALVM]

Dang that's more byes than n sync. idk anything about seeding.

 

[Jiggle4Life]

good games to everyone I played, it was my first tourney so I think I did pretty well.

 

[TheTantalus]

nice turnout
