D.B.R. Presents: GENESIS! RESULTS-Melee: Mango. Brawl: To Be Decided

[nealdt]

Expect at least half of pre-reg people to not show up.

 

[L__]

Ahh, Mogwai I was kididng lol.

 

[CT Chia]

and at least a hundred show up that didnt pre reg

i rly cant see how either event cant top 300. 400 shouldnt even be too hard

 

[Mogwai]

and at least a hundred show up that didnt pre reg

i rly cant see how either event cant top 300. 400 shouldnt even be too hard

based on what exactly?

 

[idea]

quoting the pre-reg page is fun. see:

Melee Entrants 686
Brawl Entrants 696

Wiis 143
Gamecubes 152

Melee discs 237
Brawl discs 142

 

[MacD]

i love how comments on the pre reg page say "100% sure i can't go but i'm regestering anyway"

 

[pockyD]

i'll take the over on 300 per game

also, i still love that there are more wiis promised than barlw discs

the barlw community really sucks at bringing stuff

 

[Alukard]

i think its going to be 500+ people for melee =]

^_-

 

[Pakman]

Ok so I have an idea.

For grand finals and crews and stuff I have a video splitter. It takes in one input(from the gamecube normally) and outputs 4 versions of the same video. I used it at RoM and Pound 3 so everyone wasn't crowded around one TV and so that we could live stream and record the same match.

For each match we can do something like
1st output) Goes to TV.
2nd output) Goes to another TV for spectators/ projector if it is available.
3rd output) WC regions commentary and recording setup.
4th output) Another regions commentary and recording setup (preferably mine if we use my equipment)

This way we can get 2 perspectives and not have everyone crowd around one TV for the big matches.

If we incorporate Chibo's video rule I won't have any of the issues I had with the RoM vids.

 

[nealdt]

I have 3 splitters too . We pulled that WAAAAAY back in the day at Champ Combo for the big SoCal vs. NorCal crew battle (HEY SIDEFX, WHERE IS THE VIDEO FROM THAT???).

 

[DrewB008]

dude the norcal vs socal crew battle

i forgot about that

isai lost his **** in that video

 

[strawhats]

I really think that the amount of people going to melee might reach 500 or just a little less. Obviously not everyone one the pre reg list will be going to Genesis.

 

[Alukard]

so like everyone should donate 5$ so i can make it to this >_>

 

[_milktea]

Groan =____=. I just checked Ramada Inn reviews and amongst the few that say it's lovely, the majority claim it's awful . I hope the amount of awesome people make up for it T____T.

 

[_marth1_]

isai is too good

 

[Atomsk_92]

We got this Inui XD

 

[L__]

:|

I hope things work out for everyone...

A lot of people I've talked to recently have said things have fallen apart. D:

yeah i completely forgot to add chibo's video rule, itll put it up asap.

but yeah we got all the equipment necessary for just that.. never really thought about having both sides commentating.. how would you go about incorporating both? or would you just release the video x2 with each commentary..? im guessing thats the way, but yeah that sounds pretty legit. the projector and all that has been planned out, we got bleacher seating as well for people to watch.

I have 3 splitters too . We pulled that WAAAAAY back in the day at Champ Combo for the big SoCal vs. NorCal crew battle (HEY SIDEFX, WHERE IS THE VIDEO FROM THAT???).

what are you talking abouuuuuuut

 

[L__]

disregard post.

question answered already.

I like this portion of a one star review!

"Teenagers partying in the parkinglot....homeless looking people hanging out on the second floor walk way. This place was loud ALL night long!!!!!"

I think we are gonna enjoy this!

 

[sidefx]

more than half the hotel is going to be filled with smashers anyways, and you guys arent going to be at the hotels very often, so yeah =D


also, theres going to be a massive orgy in room 208 for all the girlies that want to join in. dudes arent welcome.

<3

 

[pockyD]

yeah, aside from maybe thursday, i doubt you would be spending a lot of time at the hotel

......There are more Brawlers yet... only 142 setups? Have fun trying to get that done on time. Melee should run pretty smoothly.

 

[pockyD]

the norcal barlw community is mostly 15 year old kids who feel like they don't need to take responsibility for tournaments

there are only like 4-5 barlw people up here that consistently bring setups

good **** onski

 

[Anth0ny]

Two different commentary tracks eh? I could see it now...

WC: MANGO SAYS IF IT AINT JEFF ITS DONE!

EC: OMG LOOK AT THAT PINK PUFFBALL I HATE ITS SMILE



Get hype!

 

[AlphaZealot]

......There are more Brawlers yet... only 142 setups? Have fun trying to get that done on time. Melee should run pretty smoothly.

Umm....

You realize there are only like 120 tvs right? Have fun using those extra 80 disks (but no cubes) on nonexistent tvs to make your tournament run super fast.

Regardless, all this info is basically useless: we don't know anything until the tournament actually happens.

---

I'm getting so PUMPED for this. I cannot wait till I'm in CA tomorrow afternoon practicing up. I hope the hotel can hook up cubes/wiis (wouldn't that suck if they couldn't). Also, this hotel kinda sounds perfect for housing 300+ smashers lol.

 

[PB&J]

i dont are what the hotel looks like..its going to be **** once everybody is there

oh and crews should be first

 

[sidefx]

yeah we arent relying too heavily on the pre-reg list for set ups and stuff, but 120 set ups is a bit excessive.. we wouldnt even have room to set up 120 stations, with 400ish people walking around.

 

[g-regulate]

sidefx's MK gets ***** by my circa may 2008 ganon. fact

live feed?

 

[pockyD]

STAGES:

Neutrals:

• Fountain of Dreams (Singles Only)
• Pokemon Stadium
• Dream Land
• Final Destination
• Battlefield
• Yoshi's Story
• Kongo Jungle 64 - This stage will be used as a neutral ONLY in Singles & Doubles Bracket. It will be used as a Counter pick during Singles & Doubles Pools.

so what's the rule on stage striking in teams, with 6 'neutral' stages?

 

[Plairnkk]

yeah we arent relying too heavily on the pre-reg list for set ups and stuff, but 120 set ups is a bit excessive.. we wouldnt even have room to set up 120 stations, with 400ish people walking around.

no room for 120 stations?!?! HA!!! what a phail.

no but for real, you should if any way possible try to dedicate 64 tvs for each game... with pools and this sort of attendence, that would really be ideal.

 

[nealdt]

ALL ATTENDEES SHOULD READ THE FIRST POST AND SET UP A TWITTER ACCOUNT TO RECEIVE UPDATES ON POOLS ETC AT THE TOURNAMENT.

Seriously . I hate twitter and even I'm doing it.

 

[Hylian]

Oh sweet, they updated the rules to include stage striking.

Good ****. Random sucks.

Yea a split situation like that is key. Your splitter is too good. I need to find one, or make one myself.

My video rule is too good lol, especially with stuck up pros that don't like their videos up. Everyone deserves to see what happens at every tournament, especially Genesis.

I'll have my own recording setup as well with my laptop and such. Though I won't be lending out to people during the tournament as I'll be carrying it around with me using it, but since I won't be playing in finals (maybe though... ), I can also bring mine over if you need it. I forget which encoder you have, but I have the same one Scar does that has a passthrough so one of the TV setup splits can also be a recording setup.

 

[Lovage]

splitters on big matches? two sets of commentary on two TV's?
HMW/alukard on one, DJ nintendo/phil on the other hahaha.

wait...is alukard going? O.o

 

[pockyD]

why do you wanna break up shaq and kobe

and team them up with jason williams and brian grant

 

[sidefx]

sidefx's MK gets ***** by my circa may 2008 ganon. fact

ppppppppfpffpfppfpffpttt i still have the best MK in the world. Ganon dittos ftw =D ****s too fun

[/LIST]

so what's the rule on stage striking in teams, with 6 'neutral' stages?

woops.. should be 5 stages for teams.. since fod isnt on. MY BAD POCKY MY BAD. good eye though.

no room for 120 stations?!?! HA!!! what a phail.

no but for real, you should if any way possible try to dedicate 64 tvs for each game... with pools and this sort of attendence, that would really be ideal.

yup yup all we gotta do is wait for people to bring them in.. i mean of course were using as many as we can get, but most of the pools and stuff will be ran 1 game at a time, so we shouldnt have a problem.

ALL ATTENDEES SHOULD READ THE FIRST POST AND SET UP A TWITTER ACCOUNT TO RECEIVE UPDATES ON POOLS ETC AT THE TOURNAMENT.

what he said =D

 

[Atlus8]

Wobbling is NOT banned! Hollaaaaaaa!

Edit - Lovage you're stp!d! Thank you Pocky!

 

[Bellioes]

Wait, so is there gonna be live stream or not? Im pretty sure a huge event like this will probably have one but I just want to make sure.
Sorry if its been asked before
