Actually, I'd really like to give shoutouts to Melee1, Hylian, and Infinity for being such incredibly fun and tough matches. It's because I was in the same tournament as you guys (and of course Drew, KirbyKid, Sethlon... jeez, the list goes on and on) that I had no idea I was actually going to win.

In fact, the high from winning is probably what gave me the motivation and energy to take 2nd in Guitar Hero as well. The only guy at A-Kon with two trophies! Woohoo!

So yeah; I had no idea this tournament would be so challenging or fun. Thanks for the great games.

Thanks. I really enjoyed our matches. You are sooo smart :). I learned some things just from those 4 games. I really hope to play you more. Congrats on first man, you definitly deserved it.

Melee1: Good games that we had. Your ICs are way different then mine, yet you still kick ***. I learned some things from playing you, good stuff.

Sethlon: To bad we didn't get to do teams :(. It was fun hanging out and thanks for the drink!!! <3.

Everyone else: Good times :).

hey guys i was thinking, our community should be more intertwined and fun like the other communities floating around (namely nyc and most of cali) so i think we should pump up our weeklies a tad bit more and maybe have a funny awards thing, like this: http://smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=172276

bwett: sorry about the random dissapearance today man i fell asleep and just woke up lol

I'm guessing the awards are in relation to Melee? Since Brawl hasn't even been out for 3 months. That would be stupid.

I demand to be voted cheapest player. I do, after all, use the Z button on occasion.

If you want to do it, go for it, Fire.

I'd say go for both games man. It's true that Brawl is still very new, but there are still people who put a lot of work into it already and they deserve recognition for it IMO.

I hereby nominate Zaft for the Biggest Pretzel Hater category. I still hate you for that! :mad:

A-kon was pretty fun. Was nice to get back into the scene and meet up with people again. Great matches. Good match Kirbykid, we should meet up and play more often.

Fogo: Next time there's a 'fest we'll get all this together and figure out what to do with it from there. This way we'll have time to sit down and talk about what we want to do with it and what categories we want to support.

I'm hoping for the "best newcomer" award honestly :p

If yall wanna have a smashfest this week, my apartment is ready to have more people in it. Only problem is that it has to be at 8:30 pm or later if its monday-thursday. Friday can be anytime though. I need to practice with my falco anyways. Also, Rok, you can come if you want.

EDIT: Good news, talked to tx gamers guy. Looks like I'll sign up. Get done with my class at 8:15pm, and he'll just skip my matches until I get there unless I can't be skipped any longer. TX Gamers rule!! lol

guys we should have a break the targets tourney lol.

player flips coin, whoever calls it right goes first. player 1 picks random. ex: player gets olimar.

player 1 does olimar on 1-5. he can get a total of 3 times for each level. that's 15(3) x 5, so around 3 minutes for someone to do each level 3 times, with an average of 15 seconds. if he/she gets any higher than that, that person shouldn't even be playing BTT lol.

once he's done he calculates total time of all 5, meaning he/she picks the best time for each level ONCE

player 2 goes 1-5 w/ olimar as well

lowest time continues on to second round




lol my amazing rules I just made up.

yeeeeaahhh boooyzzz!!!

Slacker, come to my smashfest. All you ever do is go to tournaments lol. Didn't anyone ever tell you that tournaments mean nothing. It's not about when it's all on the line. It's when you're chillin' in an apartment stress free lol.

You know what's even MORE fun than doing BTT 15 times in a row? Bashing myself in the face with a hammer! Bash Yourself In The Face With A Hammer Tournament!



I was thinking both games sometime after the weeklies get bigger and after we get a few more tourneys under our belts.
Sort of reminds me of this.

There are 20 staple tourney-goers in Dallas (compared to like a hundred in NYC). This whole awards thing is silly enough as it is without the eye-rolling addition of awards for a 3-month old game. That just rips out the faint traces of meaning in the whole awards dealie.

NYC is celebrating 6+ years of competitive Melee. Most of today's Dallas players haven't even played much of Dallas' real talent, like Kirbykid, Chang, Drew, as well as the rest of Dkrew that I haven't even met.

In short, this awards system should be given the same effort and seriousness as this--specifically, about 20 minutes and a giggle's worth.

Or better yet, how about people just post asking to be complimented and then we all say nice things about him? It's quicker, easier, and just as ga--um....asian.

Edit: Melee1 should get the "He Beat Mr. 3000" award
