I don't give a **** about post counts anyway but yea this shouldn't be in the social section even though it basically is a social thread.

i like this idea.

I think everyone who mods atl south and everyone who frequents this thread knows that waba has a great relationship with the smash community. this thread serves very non-social functions in that it attracts new players, announces the weekly tournaments, helps people get rides, keeps everyone informed. but please do not fill the thread with random social discussion because then it defeats the purpose of keeping it out of the gentlemen's club. so you are all free to make a GA social thread, and you are all free to communicate with each other in the waba thread, just keep it about the tournament and who is going to be there and who wants MMs and who is going to win or get wrecked and waba wont be derailed.

edit: just to say, this was probably the easiest decision i have had to make in a long time. people disagreed in a mature manner (who is the real nutsack, TOM??) and came up with a mondo cool solution.

Hey, for the melee tournaments, which characters are usually seen there? If I start going to Melee tournaments I'd like to use a different character to add in some variation.

So...*hopefully this weekend*

MM with fullmetal with no bananas
PT battle with Dyno.

need more RC money matches

Could someone explain a few things to me?

1.)Stage Striking/CPing. Also banning stages.
2.)How matchups are determined.
3.)How to counter an IC chaingrabber.
4.)How a set should go.

If someone would, I'd be forever grateful, XD.

If you don't pick any of the, like. top 6 or 7 characters in the game(really top 4 characters), you lose.
So **** variety.
This is even more apparent in brawl, as you may know.

# 2, not EXACTLY SURE, but i believe it is how a character does against another in a tournament setting at the highest level of play.

#3, Honestly, don't get grabbed. Counterpick a character, split them up, mash buttons QUICKLY to break free, but above all, don't get grabbed.


Will the upcoming Waba be your first tourney?

i know the ic matchup inside and out with dedede ;3
I do too.
1. Watch D3 get grabbed
2. Watch your stocks disappear
3. Return to CSS.
4. Repeat.

Well, right now I'm best with Marth, but I don't want to use him if 15 out of the 20 there also use Marth (hypothetical numbers). And as you may now, there can still be top/high tier characters that are underused in (GA) tournaments. For example, in other tournaments you see a whole lotta space animals and marth, but maybe not as many Sheik players. If that was the case in GA, then I would probably main sheik.

Basically it would be really helpful if someone posted a list of regular tournament goers with their respective main(s).

All I know is that Fullmetal uses Marth and sometimes Fox, Dogy uses Doc, GAWes and Tubes use Falcon, and Chaddd uses Ganon. And I can't remember other people atm.

heh yeah. At least in GA for Brawl we have really good variety.

sure, the entire controller would be fine.
dyno
just custom detail paint without solid paint?

or a graphic insert?

imo just custom w/o solid paint would run like $15 for labor and acrylics.

graphic insert would also be around $10 but I'm not entirely sure how i'd do that without painting it a solid color first.
u comming on the 2nd?

The neutral stages are fine. If anything, I support Lylat Cruise being added as a neutral, nothing being taken. You're just biased because you don't like that stage, Dyno.
its true, i dont like yoshi's but cmon the ghost that saves at random times... the uneven stage. the poorly placed disfigured platform that stops all air aproaches..

same sleepy
lololo


Captain Nazi.. lul

I DEMAND IF DYNO IS THERE HE GETS THE SPACE GHOST CAPTAIN FALCON TEXTURE HACK
i dont like using texture hacks in toruny play
1) it messes up teams
2) people will john
3) then i have to boot my wii with no hacks
4) tripping
5) i cant record

So my brother might come this time. Can I get confirmation that their will be more then 4 people for melee so I can be sure his first tournament experience isn't getting 4 stocked by the same 2 dudes for 6 hours strait? I mean I'm perfectly fine with that cuz I go to these tourneys to learn **** but he hasn't quite developed that level of interest yet.

I cannot allow you to place to 5 and then put your money in the melee pot.
I must defeat you and fufill my own selfish desires!

Also, I don't think there is a top 5 split on weeklies. just on the monthlies

I thought the weeklies replaced monthlies. Are there still monthlies and if so what makes them monthlies and not just a weekly that happens once a month?

They dont have monthlies anymore everything is $5 entry and they are not going to do 4-5th pot. well i asked min and he said that it would be pointless with "this many people" and only like 25 people showed last tourny so im guessing that if they were to do 4-5th get some moonies, then it would be if like 50 people come to a $5 entery tourny.. if not then.. lets work hard to beat Calvin, Lou, and Lounis..

OH WAIT!!! they arent gona be there this sat.. show up and claim your spot for free moonies while it lasts.. (seriously who is comming, i am aloud to go, but im having some doubts about it, thinking no one is going to show :( CMON GUYS!! THIS IS OUR CHANCE TO RANK TOP 3 DESU MIGHT OVERSLEEP.. AGAIN, AND LOU I GOING TO LIKE A STRIP CLUB..

Well I'm going, but I'm not on the PR anymore so the kryptonite will leave me helpless for Dr. Doom to **** me.


I really think if we have weeklies for it to be 1st-3rd: 70-20-10, except on the 3rd saturday of the month and have it 1st-5th: 60-20-10-5-2.5-2.5 (or 5-5 if 5th place wants to battle it out). 3rd Saturday should still be the big one that everyone should try to come to if they can't come to any of the other ones
