GEORGIA MELEE ~ Feb 4th ~ Smashfest at SPSU (Marietta, GA)~ FEAT. MAD BOOTY

[meatpopsicle]

When's the next one of these happening? I'm fiending for a bit of Melee.

 

[masterspeaks]

I may stop in if you guys are playing today.

 

[Gaming King]

K, so is there Smash tonight? I need to know how to get to it because SPSU is huge. Absolutely enormous. And I'd like to know if anyone has BlazBlue or if I could bring it and have opponents. I'm desperate to test my vastly improved Ragna, but I can't currently get online with my PS3.

 

[Rayku]

lol @ the thought that SPSU is a big school

 

[masterspeaks]

So... is anyone going to be playing?

i'll still totally play today. i'm actually playing right now if anyone wants to play me....

I'm used to GPC Dunwoody. I don't like huge complexes. So it gets even bigger than SPSU or Georgia Tech? Scary. Although I like Georgia Tech's facilities. They has BlazBlue. But it's a hard and expensive school, so F that.

SPSU is a small campus yo.

I want to play smash. Maybe this friday?

This. 10this.

Edit: 250th post! Its divisible by 5, 10, 25, and 50! Its a quarter of a thousand. Its a convenient number to celebrate.

 

[FrozenHobo]

i'll try to bring P:M to this one...

 

[BBQ°]

did they finish project melee yet?

 

[FrozenHobo]

nope. they recently were able to rip the physics data from the game, though, so hopefully it will feel more like the melee.

on that note, i'm considering picking melee back up.

Cool stuff. I do owe you a 12 pack of Sprite.

You should help develop the ICs for P:M.

I'll probably bring my set up to this smashfest.

 

[FrozenHobo]

they've actually melee-ified them pretty well, but their damage output is crazy. apparently in melee, popo's attacks decayed both his an nana's (like brawl), but nana's also decayed her own attacks, meaning her attacks were decayed twice as fast, meaning lower damage output. now, only popo's attacks decay her attacks, meaning CRAZY damage output. i have a vid of Chu playing. **** was sexy.

 

[FrozenHobo]

btw, travis, your copy is already old lol. they recently got the melee physics values ripped straight from the game: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vNVwMDkC5M

still has a significant amount of work left, but its getting closer.

 

[BBQ°]

lol looks cool. I'll try it.

 

[Gaming King]

So this Friday there will be Smashing? Excellent.

Now, then, does anyone have a PS3 who is also picking up BlazBlue: Continuum Shift tomorrow? Or do I need to take care of that? I prefer not to need to bring it myself, but if nobody else can, so be it.

I neeeeeeeeed to try out my freaking awesome (for a player that's not, y'know, a lunatic) Ragna skillz. I've gotten so much better with him in CT and I've heard he hasn't changed a whole lot in CS, so I can probably get used to it by Friday. ;D

 

[BBQ°]

Yep... I don't know if anyone will play BlazBlue... the BlazBlue people usually come during the school semester.

 

[Gaming King]

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU... D:

Maybe I'll have to, uh... convince 'em. *glances around at things I could use as a weapon*

 

[Gaming King]

Now, then, who wants to help me deliver a better forced totally consensual BlazBlue experience by bringing some nice PS2 controllers? That's right, I said PS2, not PS3. (PS2 has the REAL fighting controllers. Nice, short analog sticks unlike the shooter-oriented Dualshock 3's, and non-trigger L2 and R2, way better especially for Street Fighter.) The ones I have probably aren't that great for your average dude. I have a bulky wireless MadCatz one that I find okay, but has an iffy analog stick, and a GameStop Chameleon one that I personally enjoy, but figure won't suit everyone.

 

[Gaming King]

So, what's the info? Exact directions, time, etc.?

 

[FrozenHobo]

i belive around 7:30. you can get directions from googlemaps. address is 1100 South Marietta Pkwy

 

[Gaming King]

I mean where I should park and how to proceed on foot from there.

 

[Gaming King]

Also. I shall need an available HDTV with an HDMI cable or component cable. I can bring my own if necessary, but I'm hoping only to have to bring my PS3 with BlazBlue in it (I'll have CS in it and also bring along CT if anyone prefers that instead), the power cord, PS2 controller adapter, and PS2 controllers.

 

[FrozenHobo]

its looking like this is being moved to tomorrow.

 

[Gaming King]

Why doesn't the edit button work?

Anyway, by "my own," I refer to HDMI and component cables. Just so nobody gets confused and thinks I have some awesome TV or something.

 

[FrozenHobo]

making sure you didn't miss this

 

[Gaming King]

Tomorrow?
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU...


WELL, I guess that gives me more time to practice my Continuum Shifted Ragna game. Jin, unfortunately, doesn't feel the same and will take me some time to get used to. If I bother.

Time to hit the pool, I guess...

 

[BBQ°]

I don't think anything is happening this week. A lot of smashers are going to Athens for a smashfest.

Aww, piss. That "show people Melee" thing that there's a topic for in NES N00b Forever? What's that about, anyway? It's too long for me to read, not exactly being amazing at Melee. (Okay, perhaps, but not competitive level).

 

[BBQ°]

Long story short: a bunch of the melee players are trying to expand the scene in GA, so they're going to different parts of GA that have 1-2 smashers and trying to build a scene for them, so we can eventually unify.

 

[Gaming King]

Huh. Wow...

 

[Saltix]

Are you guys going to keep the smashfest times the same throughout the school year?
I can finally start coming to these once I'm at KSU

 

[BBQ°]

Yes, but we might move them back to the original day - Thursdays, although Friday seems to work better with most people. We'll see.

 

[Deleted member]

I liked the tues/thursdays biweekly smashfest thing personally.

Fridays were just this summer, and with classes 5 days a week, i'd imagine people showing up less on fridays.

While at KSU, I'll see if there is any place to use as a venue for tournies or smashfests, but the biweeklies at SPSU are good enough already. GA needs more tournies.

 

[BBQ°]

Just make your schedule for no class on fridays. It's awesome.

Also, it's a good idea to have smashfests at KSU. At first I was against it, but I realized it would be a good place to expand the Melee community.

Haters gonna hate.

 

[Gaming King]

KSU is DISGUSTING. I wouldn't recommend it. Not a nice venue.

GPC Dunwoody might be cool if you can use one of their big TVs...

Georgia Tech already has a room with a buncha Xboxes, so that might be a kewl one.

 

[FrozenHobo]

those places are pretty far away... GPC is right near my house... in decatur...

GT is a dumb distance to go...

 

[Gaming King]

Well, I'm in Marietta, and Tech is only like 30 minutes away. As is GPC Dunwoody. Polytech is like 20 minutes.
