I know right? At least someone agrees with me that it's bad.

SP,

From one SP to another SP, my house is always open to SPs .

Only thing is, my house is small, and has SP's cat. But otherwise, any SP's are welcome.

Regards,

SP

I'll come down from Ohio if there's melee!

[ShadowPhoenix951]

Poll ends tomorrow guys!

 

[Tyranitarphantom]

And the poll is officially over (S2, would you mind closing it, if you can?)! Melee players, rejoice! We hope to see you all out here!

As for the stage list, what would you all prefer? The standard 6-stage list, or perhaps something a bit more liberal (allowing Mute City, Kongo 64, Rainbow, etc.)?

 

[Ralph Cecil]

I'm dumbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb

 

[kodeyluigi]

Can we keep the Melee stage list standard??

 

[WhyYouSalty]

I completely agree with kodey on this one. Standard list please :D

 

[clowsui]

So I was getting hype about this tournament...

And I thought that a crew battle might be good to amp up the hype. Good idea, right? I mean, Cincinnati and Kentucky have always been close scenes, and our players are developing around the same rate. Not to mention it's great for the stream!

Anyways, I messaged your resident beep-o about it, to see what he thought...

WAIT!
WHAT DID HE SAY?

HOOOOOOOLD THAT PHONE. LET'S LOOK AT IT A LITTLE CLOSER.

DESTROYED?

NO, BUT SERIOUSLY.

DESTROYED? REALLY?

LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING, "MISTER" ERIC.
You must be out of ya gat-damn mind. I mean, let's face it. The only destruction a Kentuckyian really knows, is the large ones he leaves in his toilet.

NEWSFLASH, COTTONMOUTH: YOU PROBABLY SHOULDN'T TAKE A DUMP ON YOUR CONTROLLER.
SECOND NEWSFLASH, BEERBOT: YOU REALLY DON'T WANNA HAVE POOP ON A TV EITHER.

So we've concluded that there's not gonna be any destruction from Kentucky. But you know what? Eric is a man of his word. He's an honest guy. Sure, he might be deluded enough to think he's a robot, but that doesn't mean the man doesn't have values. When he says that "there's no humbleness about getting destroyed", we ought to take him at his word.

We really ought to think about the only other possibility for destruction: that Cincinnati wrecks Kentucky.


WAIT A MINUTE! DIDN'T HE SAY THAT "WE WOULD WRECK YOU"? WE, AS IN HIS FELLOW KENTUCKYIANS?

Look, I'm a nice guy, so I'll spare Eric the trouble and correct him here. I think I know a little more than Eric too. So you see, when he said "we", he must have meant "you", and when he said "you", he must have meant "us". I mean yeah, it's basic English, but give the man's "circuits" some leeway here: there were two subjects in the sentence.

ALRIGHT, CHI. IF YOU'RE SO SMART, WHAT DID ERIC ACTUALLY MEAN?
Great question, whoever you are! He meant that Cincinnati is gonna lay on the hurtin'.

He thought that MAYBE, if he reminded us of how much BETTER we are, that we'd have mercy.

HE THOUGHT, LIKE ANY BAG OF FRAYED WIRES WOULD, THAT WE WOULD SPARE KENTUCKY FROM EMBARRASSMENT.
NEWSFLASH AGAIN: WE'RE GONNA **** YOU UP. SO PUT YER ASSES UP, NERDS: THIS SPANKING IS ABOUT TO GET REAL.YOU THOUGHT IT WAS GONNA GO SOMETHING LIKE THIS?

TRY THIS:

BRING YOUR KENTUCKY-FRIED A-GAME, FATTIES. DON'T FORGET THIS, TOO:

CUZ I KNOW Y'ALL SISSIES CAN'T LEAVE YOUR TEARS AT HOME.
WE OUT!

 

[Seagull Joe]

Sounds like a Xyro post. Approved!

 

[Shaya]

Yo if only this was a week later I'd play for Clow's side and win all the crew battles forever.

It needed lime text to sound like a Xyro post, geez.

 

[clowsui]

In case you nerds can't read, Cincinnati vs KY 5v5 at this tournament. Whether or not money is involved is TBD, but we'll be sure to put on a show.

EDIT: Shoutouts to lord Xyro77. Allan Sims you are my inspiration

 

[Luminoth64]

holy **** LOL

 

[Overswarm]

Hey, I've got a crew battle for you.

5 of me vs. either crew.

=P

 

[ShadowPhoenix951]

Yo, so who's going to stream Cinci getting bodied?

 

[Kel]

Jesus, Chi, go to SRK with that ****.

 

[SoulPech]

Chi was bored.

 

[KassandraNova]

I didn't even know Steel still played smash. That's a surprise. xD

So who is the 5 members of KY that is in the crew battle?

I mean the crew battle does look hype. lmao
You guys should also do the OS crew battle idea too, I've heard stories about how awesome those turn out.

Edit: People with 3DS's and Animal Crossing bring them at this! We can trade stuff~

 

[Overswarm]

If they want to crew battle me they can come to my house on the way back from the tournament. They can stop at a store and pick up a pie for me on the way up.

I'm still not sure exactly why people are interested in crew battles. The KY/Cincinnati scenes have been stagnant for a while now, it's not like anything crazy has changed.

It'll be a maybe for me. As long as I can go with the

 

[sneakytako]

Nobody wants to play with you OS lol.

Also, it's not good to litter, so Cinci will gladly save the earth and throw out the KY trash.

 

[Amida64]

I am definitely up for it! I actually came up with this idea a month ago, I told ShadowPhoenix, but I guess he never talked to you all about it. I was thinking 10-15 people on each crew, because to be honest, I really want to participate in this. Also, we have players like Twig who are not on the PR that very well could be if they tried for it, that would be good participants for the crew battle. Overall, I am excited for a crew battle but I want a wider variety of players to be a part of it!

 

[Tyranitarphantom]

I concur with the idea of larger crews (assuming enough people from Cinci show up). It would be a good opportunity for some of our newer, but quickly-improving players (Twig, Amida, etc) to show what they've got.

But for real. SP and I have no experience streaming, so would anyone with some experience be willing to help run it/help commentate?

You're always welcome bby. Just get in contact w/ me.


As for streaming, I can see if I can borrow my friend's Dazzle. I think Ori was planning to come to this.

 

[Kel]

Cincinnati doesn't even have 10-15 players.

 

[SoulPech]

Does Ohio even have 10-15 players? O.o

 

[Tyranitarphantom]

That's why I said "assuming enough Cinci players show up."

SP has a Dazzle and all of the necessary equipment, but we can't do everything at once, so we'd appreciate help with that.

 

[clowsui]

While I would be happy w larger crews, there's also a logistical issue in mind. You could feasibly run crews between pools and bracket or doubles and pools. But w larger crews you can't sneak it in between anywhere and have to run crews after everything is over. That being said it's your tournament! I will admit to a bit of selfish bias for smaller crews as I really fell in love w the scene after my draft crews experience at Doctor X's in 2008, and I wanted to close out my time in the MW w crews if I can (hence the smaller size to increase feasibility).

Also Cincinnati has 15 players but I don't know if all of them are interested in traveling lol. High schooler johns

 

[Kel]

We can probably scrounge up that many, but it would be hard to get us all together at once.

Tyranitar, the time for the new people to shine is during the tournament. Diluting the crew battles to include everyone is essentially turning it into Little League where everyone gets a trophy for participation. The guys are talking about putting $10 down each for participation, so the competition should be high level.

If it can't happen, it can't, but if enough Ohio players show and we have the time then we should stretch it to its limit- whatever it may be. If it can't happen, then it will be still really fun to watch! Btw, is this tourney really that short on time? Or are all tourneys that frantic when concerning fitting in events? I am legitimately wondering because my tourney is this weekend, and I am starting really early and having A LOT of events.

Your right, I will put time in this game other than at tourneys and see if I can get good enough to where I will be competition viable for this crew battle!

 

[clowsui]

Amida so long as you have setups you're fine

 

[Amida64]

Amida so long as you have setups you're fine

Yeah, I have 5 tvs with consoles to go with them, and I have more tvs if I need them. My worry is the fact that I have so many events, (Fooseball, Air Hockey, Brawl, 64, Billiards, PM, Bomberman, Mario Party, Pokémon Puzzle League, and melee if people bring setups for it.) I am basically just going to have a poll on the thread and just cut out the least popular events, unless we have time for them.

 

[Amida64]

I almost forgot, I promised to bring/play Flying Dragons for the N64 on my flash cart..... its an overlooked fighting game, would anyone else be interested in trying this game?

 

[Kel]

Amida, can you link me to your tournament thing? Kassy and I might be interested in going. Although it's kinda scary if you are running all of those events. If this is your first tournament I would cut most of that out or else you could find yourself going crazy. Being a TO is a crazy job and you don't want to make it more difficult on yourself if you are inexperienced. Just be careful.

Yeah, I am starting it around 10am - the first event and most of it will be cut out, I will be doing whatever I have time for, so I will cut out the least popular events. I have done two minor tourneys prior to this so I have minimal experience, but I will try not to stress myself out.
