My Genesis story... 4th in pools in every event.... and top 3 advance. >_<
Brawl teams I got gypped hard. Me and George (Alabama Kirby player) lost to Hylian+Sethlon and Hall+Oats, each set was 1-2. We beat Praxis+KosMos and every other team. We ended up tied for 3rd with Praxis and KosMos, but they advanced and we didn't. Doesn't matter that we beat them head-to-head... doesn't matter that we had 10 game wins, and they had 9.... the tie break was winning percentage. We were 10-7 (59% wins), they were 9-4 (69% wins). No hard feelings, except to the person who decided on that rule.
Brawl singles I lost to Zax (#3 on NorCal power rankings? He beat Reflex in brackets), Teba (a Metaknight somewhere on SoCal power ranks), and Yoshq (a good Luigi).
Melee... somewhat similar story in pools. Played against Zhu and didn't do badly. Played against Taj+DoH in teams, which didn't go well.
Anyways... Mango vs Armada was worth the price of admission.... along with the California weather and In-N-Out Burger.
Oh uhh.... I really should have tried to meet some Brawl Fox mains at the tourney. Sorry
