When I stop and look at it there's a huge group of people that play smash in gwinnett that has never really been organized. If I could get that organized and even start throwing events in gwinnett it'd make for a very active community there.

Augusta seems to have people too. It'd be dope to have like every group of smashers that are 2hrs away all played together/had smashfests and then once a month there's some mutual decided place to have a monthly lol
I live on gwinnett and got started with melee about 6 months ago and I fell in love but my friends don't cut it. I need people to play with. Anyway to figure out who lives close by?

Hi guys. I've been looking around for somewhere to fit in, but Watkinsville just doesn't have a Smash scene for me...everywhere else? I can see one. Gwinnett, especially, but I have no real transportation.
Is there anyway you can drive to gwinnett at all. I'm looking for people to play with. And I have dolphin on my PC if you just want to do some friendlies.

Hey guys, I'm looking for people willing to volunteer their WiiU's as setups to a possible tourney in the near future.

So far the only people I have on the setup list is:
Me
RhyRhy
Flea
Vincent
Shane

If you are willing to bring your WiiU setup or lend it for tourney use in the late future lol just let me know. I'm still trying to put everything together and figure out how to work this all out but once it's all figured out everything will be moving smoothly.
I bring my WiiU to every tournament (unless it's big). So sure.

I live in Alpharetta/Johns Creek so I can bring my squad and we can all play or something.
Facebook is the single best way to find Smash players.

Look up GA Melee for Melee, Georgia Project M for PM, and I actually dunno if there's a Smash 4 group, yet.

Level Up in Augusta is now hosting weeklies for Super Smash Bros. Primarily focused on Smash Wii U, but will also have nights dedicated to Project M and Melee. Anyone who brings in a setup is welcome and gets a discounted door fee.

I can make it and bring my setup as well. It may not be this week though.

What's the door fee for just the tourney if I bring my setup?

The semester is beginning tomorrow at Georgia Southern University.

We'll be running a bi-weekly event called the Hot Seat starting this Monday night at 6pm EST.

This is a Project M stream: http://www.twitch.tv/eaglesmash

Georgia Southern is located in Statesboro, near the southeastern corner of Georgia!

We'll also soon be resuming our monthly Project M series, Smash in the 'Boro, as well as beginning a new Smash 4 monthly!

If you'd like more information, feel free to PM me or find us on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/groups/EagleSmash/ (Message Siodhachan Hobbes to accelerate access to the group!)

Hey guys, I live in Dunwoody (Atlanta OTP North) and want to know more about the 64 Scene around here. Like does anybody host a weekly and/or who are the best people I can get in contact with if I want to play 64? Also I'm willing to learn melee if there's anybody very close by (Dunwoody-Sandy Springs-Roswell area) willing to teach me.

Gwinnett Brawl has been pulling decent numbers for Smash 4 regularly for a while now. We were on break over Xmas / New Year's but we're back now and just finished a 45-man Smash 4 tournament tonight. Not sure if everyone here is familiar with the event since we don't really have a presence on Smashboards at the moment.

We try to run a tournament once every 2 weeks but occasionally have to take longer breaks due to other schedule conflicts.

Yeah I was there. That's such a huge thing, and more people are asking about the events. I think we can def. see a huge growth. I wanna help with that and get the stream more popular.

I'm traveling to Atlanta March 12 - 14th for work and was hoping to find a tourney close by. Does anyone know of any PM / Melee events around then? Cheers

Not at GB. We don't really have time to add more games unless we start alternating between "Smash Games" and "Other Fighters" for each event (which I'm not really opposed to, but I don't see it happening).

Try searching Facebook groups for Georgia Smash players in other games. I'm pretty sure they're out there but I'm only familiar with the Smash 4 group.

Next GB is March 7. I haven't made a thread here for it but the Facebook event page is up:

Hiyo.

I live in the central Georgia area, mainly in Warner Robins. I'd like to know if there are any Project M and/or Smash U tourneys in WR or around the central Georgia area.

Lovely Night here in Georgia.

I'm new to this thread, so hi to you all. I live in Gwinnett County and I was wondering if there were any tournaments near the area that I'm currently located.

Quick question for the thread: Who's your favorite smasher and why? In my case, I'm a big fan of Jtails, mainly due to the fact that he was the pioneer of Diddy before the whole HOO-HAA nonsense came around. He possesses a very technical and read-based play style that I like to observe and incorporate into my Pikachu, which I'll probably start playing instead of R.O.B. in Project M and Smash 4.

I am going to have to go with our one and only Sith Lord, Westballz. I like how if he gets one hit he keeps the combo going. Whether it's pillars or just a laser confirm. Watching that man play is a thing of freaking beauty.

For me, Either Jtails or Nakat.

I guess I'll go ahead and share the results of Saturday's Gwinnett Brawl here.

Stream archive:
http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLOIVDZCiJchFhdLjLAajP2Ml8dXAKxZc8

Custom sets used:

Bracket results (39 players in attendance):
http://challonge.com/gbsmash11

The next GB (March 19) will be an SF/Marvel only event. Smash will be back in April (date TBD). I'll try and remember to post an actual tournament thread here for that.

EDIT: I've also uploaded the stream archives of every tournament we've run at GB for the past year:
