Yeah Andy I'd come of course, if its Melee or Brawl. Maybe even just for Brawl as I might be picking up back up.

Well personally I cant play nor stand Melee, but I understand that it needs to be both nowadays, numbers in the Smash scene are so low it'd be silly to cut one out.

Price will likely be £10, don't really want it to be more than that tbh, as it seems like a nice even figure that people are happy with

£5 - Venue (Any left over from the venue goes back in the prize fund)
Not sure on the pricing split outside of that tbh.

Also, I've had another idea, basically, my tournaments will envoke Championship Belts

SSS = Smudge Smash Society

Whoever holds a championship gets FREE ENTRY TO ANY AND ALL SSS TOURNAMENTS

The Championship must be defended once every month, in a match that i'll state.

Everyone gets a fair shot, Basically I name the no.1 contender before the tournament.

Don't think that the best will stay the best, the long the person holds the belt the harder the challenges get, can range from a server handicap to multiple opponents

The titles are.
SSS Championship
SSS Tag Team Championship

If you can't turn up one month, you lose the belt, instantly.

Now I'm not sure whether to go a set for Melee aswell, gonna try these out with Brawl at the moment or think of a way to intermingle between the two.

So what do people think?
the idea of Championship belts made me laugh

don't want to sound rude but imo I agree with cal, I'm not sure it'd work - especially if you have to attend every month to keep it >.o

it sounds fun but sounds a bit........ well, difficult.

It is pretty WWE inspired, and it's kinda to drum up a bit of attention, i mean, who can say they wouldn't want to be called 'Champion' of there scene, or steal another scenes title.

Plus free entry to boot.

Im 100.1% sure im getting mine tomorrow..



Willz...King of Johns
Where was the excuse in that? I was just saying that I played it for a short period of time and that I improve if I have short breaks from the game. Before Brads small fest last week I hadn't played the game in nearly a month and I still *****. eut34iwtojq3oitfnaskjc nawkjnr4wtwe

Hmm, so yen, when are you gona be having your mini thing? is it gona be 5th-7th or are people gona go trios (if he has his thing then)

Oh i live all the way in oxford, but I can travel to get to whereever you decide to meet, it'll be much cheaper overall than me training it all the way.

Also, if I'm allowed to change the name of someone using my premium powers, dyou wanna name change lol?
OOOHHH SWEET JESUS YEHZ! MTR all the way!

If you could get yourself to Marston Green (usually best station), Water Orton, Colehill or Solihull that'd be well helpful for me. Could probably house you day before or depending on what time we go andys could come down early on the day and have some games.

Can you imagine how horrible it would be if you could change someone's name?

They go to log in and they just get the message "incorrect username or password" because some **** decided they wanted to change their name, lol.

Be so awsome if you can, been so long since ive played anyone who really challenged me on gh, one of my friends is pretty good, hes beaten everything on gh3 except the battle with lou(which tbf i only did a few months ago after having the game for over a year) but whenever we play he admits im better than him.

But yea, some of the songs ive been downloading recently are awsome =P mainly guitar driven instrumentals...but they're never as good as cliffs of dover =P

Hopefully, Where is the furthest you guys would be willing to travel? My hometown's a ballache for you to get to, and the train station is near no possible venues.

I could do Stockport, Manchester at a push, Crewe, Maccelsfield and a few other areas.

Stockport is easy for people to get to, Manchester would be fine too, Crewe and Maccelsfield would be fine for me, but others i cant say the same thing.

I think Stockport is a little cheaper than Manchester for venues

Crewe and Manchester are big central stations so they're the main ones, although it's a 5 min train from Stockport from Manchester, so that's ok too.

You can get to stockport from manchester?

If so, sounds reasonable to me ... depends whether it costs a lot to get there though.

Ahh another D3, welcome to the Kingdom my friend, obviously you have to bow down to me, but that's a given

To do this, you must pledge any free time to the King, he will be your guide, your saviour and help you kick some serious ***.

Oh and you can't be the one in the Ice blue cloak, he's mine. lol

What do you need to learn about D3, oh and what's your control setting?
