matt, is there any way you can delay this until the week after? I'm going to go to CTCon and i'd like to go to this as well.
if it is the weekend after it would really help finalizing my travel plans.

Not the week of CTcon the date is under construction. I'll hold a smashfest the weekend before Game Unicon for everybody.

If this happens at least 5 kids from new hampshire would come to it.

That would be 3 more than have ever been at a tournament at the same time before

minus one exception

so hopefully this happens before summer's end?

NH used to rep these a long time ago, before Skler and Pine and PurpleCobra disappeared... I miss them.


Matt, have you asked Jamie to change the date? If it can't be changed, I'll run it, it'll just be smaller.

THEN GET OUT OF THE MARKET... wait what? :dizzy:

Meh, I'm spending a lot of dough on my truck lately. As for a MM we'll have to see if I have the excess when next we play. :(

As for the Marth vs. Peach, I'm comfortable in the match-up so I'll play you whether it's for money or not. Oh what am I saying? You're one of my rivals. We are going to play reguardless. :chuckle:

Genesis was epic from what I heard. What, like 250 entrants? cripes.

i'm working on improving myself, though it's going slower than I hoped cause I haven't played anyone better than me since the 1st. More Life Johns, as well as some Truck Johns. :urg:

I have taken the chainthrowing that your Marth showed me and altered it to suit my needs, though I doubt that I could beat you in a ditto just yet. We are (or were) similar in tech ability, but you are able to go to more tournies, or at least play better people more often.

What you have is experience, and faster reaction times too, unless I miss read something when I analyzed your playstyle.

*EDIT* hey are you going to the CTconn??

double EDIT. heeeyyyy... melee isn't in the listed tournies! D=

Yeah, we'll be playing regardless. We should get it down on tape this time if SPIFE LETS ME USE IT THIS TIME

AND MY DAD DOESN'T MAKE ME GO LIKE 5 HOURS EARLY
GOD**** I'M YOUNG

As for marth dittoes, yeah, the chain throwing isn't something I'd really recomend. Just a little bit of low percent stage control before going into uthrow-uair/doublefair. Really what happened was I got the gimp first. and believe me, my reaction times are shiet.

If you want some good practice, take the hike up to GU this friday. The weekly smashfests are getting hottt

:p told'ja. Just wait. you'll wish you were 15 again. seriously.

Chainthrowing is good up to 7% or so, then it can be evaded. As you said, U-throwing for a combo is a better idea. Trust me, I explored chainthrowing extensivly lol. Marth ***** himself (*Shudders at the mental image that conjures up...*) if one playstyle is inferior to the other. True on the gimps, and if you're reaction times are "shiet", what does that make mine? lol ;P it's okay. I'm still working on it. if one person can do it, than another can too. besides, I'm going to learn Sheik to deal with Marth lol...

You're saying this assuming that I'll know where it is? rotfl. I'm trying to get time to play Flaco and/or Roman sometime this week. I hope anyways.

Oh, and my friend from Maine was down earlier this month. I have a few new vids. Check them out and comment? (Don't mind the Marth one. I was sandbagging till he actually started WINNING. C. Falcon matches are semi sexy lol.)

Marth dittos are a test of who has better DI and chase skills. They're also really really dumb.

Hey Spife, we should play at this because we haven't played in a long time.

Also, **** CTcon, just come to this.
