There are a bunch of people in the pictures here who I don't recognize or whose tags I don't know. If someone could help point out the unidentified people in the pictures so I could fill in the blanks, that would be awesome.
@
Silent Wolf - You're a super chill guy and a super terrifying competitor. It was really cool of you to come down here. Congrats on winning singles and doubles, man. It was really fun to watch you play.
@
omgwtfToph
- Awesome of you to come down to Texas too. Love listening to your commentary on all the big streams.
@SOS - After that 0-death you got on me in the first 10 seconds of that match vs your sheik on FoD, I was seein stars. Thanks for the advice, and most of all thanks for coming up to Plano! There was no shortage of Texas's best representing in this bracket, and that's hella cool.
@
ZachAttax64 - Fun nonsense in doubles, and even more nonsense in pools. It's nonsense how skilled you are. Thanks a whole lot for the advice on the Marth matchup, I'd say he's probably the hardest for me to deal with because of the amount of mistakes I make and valuable openings I allow to slip by. Keep wrecking kids, it's awesome to see. Also, where were you when pools started? Were you at Wendy's or something? I'm not le mad or anything but I was kinda worried you were gonna get DQ'd because you were nowhere to be seen whenever the pool was called. Glad that didn't happen tho.
@
hamyojo - Doubles nonsense. Also, I saw you playing a looot of games with Toph, and it looked like you were winning a fair bit of them which is crazy. I'm actually one of the few people who hasn't money matched you yet, so we should change that in the future I guess, rofl.
@
Thoraxe - Soon as you and thin mint were called to play against Pinku and I the first round of doubles I was like "welp, hello Loser's bracket." I just can't seem to land any good hits on your Marth. Hella frustrating for me rofl, but gg's.
@
pootTheBox - Glad to see you here representing among Texas's best, even though we didn't get to play any matches.
@
x7king7x - In that doubles friendly on Yoshi's where you played with Tadeo against Pinku and I, I was incredibly surprised we won against you guys because you're both really tight players.
@
BIGJOHNSONxPWNS
aka GentleBreeze - Fun (and tense) Falco dittos in pools. I'm starting to like Falco dittos more. We should grind some out in friendlies next Dime, yeah?
@
Problem2 - That one gimp you got on me in battlefield made me feel so dumb lmao. It was so elegantly done that I can't even be mad, just at myself for being so stupid. Well played. It just seemed like you knew how to deal with most of the stuff I was throwing down, and you won the patience game for sure. Link's a fun character that I'm considering exploring myself, actually.
@
Thin Mint
- gg's in doubles. There's something about your defensive peach style that I can't seem to deal with, at least not during the mayhem of doubles, and especially not when Thoraxe is your team mate. You just live and live and live until you're at like 250% or however much it was, rofl.
Peaches are weird for me, because every peach I play uses the downsmash at different times, like they take different cues and see different opportunities to use it. So once I get used to one style of peach, I'll play another peach and they'll destroy me because they use their tools just a little bit differently. Hope to play you again soon.
@
Scotch98' - we definitely never did that money match lol, and I definitely didn't even see you at the tournament even though you were there. Next time that dollar is mine tho
Also, shoutouts to those two Falco mains that ditto'd with me for a while, that was really fun.
Large shoutouts to @
W
WaterlessFishie
aka SupahGabe for getting this ridiculous, almost 100 man tournament done right on time.
That's it for shoutouts, if I'm missing anybody in particular, please don't hesitate to yell at me.

This is a very valuable opportunity to plug my twitch channel, for those who are interested.
I'm going to try to regularly stream games of melee with my brother Shishkebab, who mains Ganondorf. We'll also play matches as random characters/ try to work on alternates, too.
Music is going to be a big part of the stream. I'm going to play a lot of newer music in addition to stuff I just generally enjoy, expect to hear a lot of variety/different genres. So if you like music even a little bit, I'm probably worth following just for that because you might hear something different that you like. I'm also very open to suggestions of songs to play/albums to listen to from viewers, too.
I'm aiming to make the stream have a generally chill, laid-back type of atmosphere. People can watch and talk about the dfw smash scene, games, music, life, whatever you want. We're just two bros playing some melee and listening to some good music.
If that sounds appealing at ALL to you or you regularly watch streams on Twitch, get your booty on over to my channel and leave me a follow here:

If for some reason the stream takes off and gets semi-popular or something, that would be pretty tight, and I'd like to think that it would be good for the DFW/Texas Smash Scene too, it'd give us more exposure to other regions and there'd be more active discussion going on about us which is COOOL!!!!
