DUDE!

You know about the heart attack grill?

I've never been there, but I've seen it on the news.

I'm impressed lol...

How much do you weigh? Apparently, they give free food to people over 300 lbs LOL

EDIT: 350 lbs.

You better put on 150 pounds of muscle in the next month.

 

[joeplicate]

hahahaha no chance




but good **** mango

 

[ConnorTheKid]

why in the world would they give free food to morbidly obese people?


dammit Arizona....

 

[SuperRad]

it's part of their shtick

the point is they want to kill you

 

[DrDogg]

We run a fairly tight tournament, so everyone will know when they need to be at the Convention Center for their matches (rough match times will be up Fri/Sat morning after on-site registration). You should have plenty of time to hit up Heart Attack and make it back in time for your matches.

As a general recap:

Fri: Melee Singles and Doubles
Sat: Brawl Singles and Doubles
Sun: Finals (we may do Melee finals on Fri, depending on time constraints)

 

[killer tofu]

lets do melee finals on friday
so we can leave on sat/sun and go eat burgers

-lovage

We'll more than likely do Melee finals on Friday.

 

[Lovage]

why is SSBM not listed in the scheduled games on your website?

 

[DrDogg]

Because it's a side tournament that you register on-site for.

Same goes with all of the SNK tournaments, our Halo 3 tournament and every other side event. Although we expect Melee to be our largest side tournament.

 

[joeplicate]

how much is venue fee + melee entry??

 

[DrDogg]

If you're only playing in Melee and not playing in Brawl or any other main tournament, then you'll pay a $10 venue fee (for a guest badge) and $15 for Melee singles ($20 for Melee doubles).

 

[Akunin]

Its less than 30 days until DEVASTATION. If you haven't gotten your travel plans worked out, now would be a good time.

 

[Lovage]

this sounds like a great tournament
im excited

 

[DrDogg]

It should be interesting to compare our turnout to some of the other big tournaments this year. I'm expecting a lot of Smash players for Melee and Brawl.

 

[Lovage]

yes it should be interesting.
you should also make melee a listed event on the websites and SRK so we feel like the real deal <.<

 

[joeplicate]

The wheel deal

 

[Lovage]

why did the bike go to jail

Spoiler

because he was a pedalfile

 

[DJMirror]

why Did The Bike Go To Jail

Spoiler

Because He Was A Pedalfile

Lmao Wtf Hahahahahahahhahahahhahhahahahahahhahahahahahah

 

[Drecker]

Melee isn't a Official tournament while Mario Kart and Geometry Wars is?

HEY.

Geometry Wars takes mindgames, son.

 

[DrDogg]

HEY.

Geometry Wars takes mindgames, son.

Actually, there are mind games involved in a Geometry Wars tournament. Not to mention a considerable amount of skill. I would be surprised if a Smash player took the GeoWars tournament (and vice-versa).

Online Registration Closes Friday, June 12th

• Yup, the time is fast approaching and all you procrastinators out there need to get it going.
• Anyone who does not register will not get any t-shirts/swag bags unless we have extras and you will have to sit in the sucky day-of line while all the registered people get to walk by you and go directly to the check-in. So how about you get registered and save everyone some headaches: http://www.devastationevent.com

Raffle Gallery updated with new items

• While we are still waiting for more raffle items to show up, we have been updating the raffle gallery with the stuff we do have on hand, including the exclusive DEVASTATION 2009 Arcade-in-a-Box custom joystick. Everyone who pre-registers gets a free raffle ticket! Check out the gallery here: http://jedirobb.smugmug.com/gallery/7777519_8yEU6
  

Address Update/Confirmation

• The Phoenix Convention Center is comprised of three buildings and to help clarify the one we are in, the South Building, we have updated the address to reflect that specific building: 33 South 3rd Street Phoenix, Arizona 85004.
• When you get to the South Building do not go into the Main entrance but rather, the South Entrance/Lobby that is to the South/Right of the Main lobby. We are cool enough to have our own entrance and lobby directly into the South Ballroom.

Website Information Portal

• We are closing in on DEVASTATION and so we are updating the site into something of an information hub. Throughout the event we will be live-streaming coverage on the main section of the site as well as updating Twitter, uploading images and videos, as well as blogs and forum feeds. Get over to the Social page and befriend, subcribe, etc. to the various community-sites on there so you are ready for the event: http://www.devastationevent.com/Social

More to come...

[JDM]

Plan 9 looks cute on the livestream.

 

[Tee ay eye]

Melee results
1. M2k
2. Taj
3. Forward
4. Wobbles

NOTE: Forward and M2k agreed to split before Forward and Taj were going to play in Loser's Finals, and Forward just agreed to forfeit to Taj if Taj split with M2k and gave him the money. (Yes, Forward gave Taj the third place winnings)

p.s.

Matches were recorded onto my friend's computer, but I forgot to bring my SD card to take the matches, so he'll send them to me in the next few days.

Interesting matches that were recorded:
Wobbles v Taj
Taj v Forward Winner's Semis
M2k vs Taj Grand Finals
M2k vs Forward Winner's Finals

Wobbles v M2k was not recorded, but M2k used Falcon and Peach (2-0 on Wobbles)
