If I win round 1 of Smash 4, I'll probably be facing Captain L, the #2 seed behind only M2K.Shooot so pools/brackets are up; super stacked as expected. My butt isn't ready. ; ^; May we all get rekt swiftly.
Setup begins at 9:30, doors open at 10:30.what time and day is hte smash 4 part of the tourney?
Doors are supposed to open at 10:30, but last time I checked the fb page, Chris said to not come until 11am; can't remember the reason why but they might end up running late or something. IIRC it's on one of the top posts on the page, if anyone wants to check if I'm wrong.Setup begins at 9:30, doors open at 10:30.
Smash 4 starts at noon. At-the-door entry is closed an hour prior to starting.
It is a double-elimination tournament the whole way through, with no pools.
The top-8 should finish around 7pm, according to the event's Facebook page.
I'm in group R. Look out for *this* noob?
It ran late. Very late.Doors are supposed to open at 10:30, but last time I checked the fb page, Chris said to not come until 11am; can't remember the reason why but they might end up running late or something. IIRC it's on one of the top posts on the page, if anyone wants to check if I'm wrong.
Oh yo, I was the Asian dude in a hoodie who told you to tell PSike that our Melee doubles match got called lol. The match was one of the first of the day, Black Yoshi vs Black Rosalina? Neat lol. How'd you do in bracket?It ran late. Very late.
The doors pretty much opened at noon. Smash U started up around 1:30-is after everything was said and done.
It sucks that only 4 of us brought a Wii U for an 80-man tournament.
That being said, it was very fun, and Mew2King really is worthy of his name.
I'll go again to the next one.

btw sideslick i have some video of your money match with m2k. If you want ill send it to you!Saying I "got wrecked" is an understatement, especially considering my cut-short money-match with Mew2King. THAT was amazing, but oh-so-brutal.
Feel free to upload it to YouTube and post the link.btw sideslick i have some video of your money match with m2k. If you want ill send it to you!
Its up on youtube but it wont let me post the link. Just search m2k vs Sideslick.Feel free to upload it to YouTube and post the link.
I'd like to study it at some point.
Also, your Meta Knight was pretty impressive. I'll get you next time!
He was also literally the only person in that entire place that was taller than me.ggs everyone
shoutout to Big D for taking M2K to game 5 in pm Losers finals.
All I know about is my money-match with M2K. I'd like to see that M2K Vs. Dawson-match I keep hearing about.Are videos being uploaded? I want to see M2K vs The Darkest Man Alive.
-The late start and the standing in the rain was unacceptable. I can't defend that. We had electronics on us. We're nerds, and they should have known that.First impressions mean a lot for our region and SSB4 (Wii U) is a new game with a lot of new players. As a longtime host I know the difficulty trying to keep events running "by the book" and still be fun/enjoyable for the attendees, to address some of the issues mentioned:
Starting/Ending late - I didn't think it was too much of an issue as far as just my own opinion goes, but I think having to wait out in the cold with the rain just exacerbated the situation. I don't think there was any problem to offer those in line a place to wait inside (or at least most of them).
Limited Setups - Having some setups guaranteed for the event would help a lot. I think every single setup was attendee-provided; Offering discounts for people to bring in setups would have been a great option.
Ambiguous ruleset - No stagelist was given prior to event. People were not made aware of other last-minute rules which resulted in competitors being DQ'd (myself included). The website did not (and still does not as of this post) have any ruling regarding character bans posted. Well, kind of goes without saying, but simple solution to any ruleset issues is having a solid ruleset publicly posted with ample time so this does not happen.
The staff could have been more polite - refraining from swearing and telling the attendees how bad they are through a bullhorn would be a good start. Hope the staff is reexamined.
The staff could have been more organized - Just shouting out matches to be played on "whatever setup you can find" might work in small locals, but a more professional organization using a PA system and and some proper equipment (or at least numbering the setups) would have made a clear statement how the venue fee was being used for the attendee.
Bracket "Seeding" - having some of the best players in their respective areas play against each other first round is just plain backwards. The solution to this is kind of obvious about not messing with the brackets.
I've known the tournament director, Chris, for a number of years and have been a returning customer of his so I know he'll do his best to address these issues for next time. Looking forward to bigger/better events in the future.
If I could get a ride to Lynwood from Orting, I'd go to Gameclucks in a heartbeat. Unfortunately, it's just too far for me to go by myself right now.Until then check out the Gameclucks Chris hosts every month and I'll probably see you there.
since I am about halfway between Lynwood and orting I could give you a lift. I haven't been to any local events beyond pnwr, however I am looking for more events and it would be nice to go with someone I know.If I could get a ride to Lynwood from Orting, I'd go to Gameclucks in a heartbeat.

I know I'm definitely going to the next PNW, though. See you there?
(Is there any chance for next Gameclucks-monthly, you or some other Oregonian/southern-Smashers could give me a ride? I'd try to help w/ gas.)
So where would we meet-up?since I am about halfway between Lynwood and orting I could give you a lift. I haven't been to any local events beyond pnwr, however I am looking for more events and it would be nice to go with someone I know.
PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF they are not being saved! If not, I'll rip them to my computer. I don't want to lose those sheik matches or marth plays.All I know about is my money-match with M2K. I'd like to see that M2K Vs. Dawson-match I keep hearing about.

Okay, fine. Here's that train-wreck of a money-match:
