Needs more Brawl bi-weeklies.

If I got the local Play N Trade to do 'em, would people come?

That aside, I still want to host a tournament at Idle Hour Park again. Maybe I could attract a big fund taking some of the biweekly money and putting it in the pot for that. What do you think?

i'll read through the last two pages when i get back, but for the moment, im really happy with everyone's efforts, although i disagree with pessimistic comments and think that it IS possible to get more people into melee. Im not talking about halo numbers, but we have an average of 8 people show up for georgia tournaments, i think we can triple that. now really, in a state of 8 million people, is 24 people wanting to be competitive in a video game an insane scenario? Seriously guys, i know the economy is ****, but at the moment gas is the cheapest its been since the year i started driving. We can do this, it is notttt impossible

And as far as brawl goes, i'd love to see more players get into both games, but as sleepy said, its more of the same franchise than it is a similar game and while i think we should move towards peace on the forums, i dont see the need of mixing brawl and melee into one thread, because I, like many others, do not like to read posts irrelevant to my interests if i dont have to, and if i go on here to find out whats going on in melee, i really could not give less of a **** whats happening in brawl, if i want to know, i'll look at their threads, i think mixing them would be doing injustice to both anyway, surely their communities deserve their own gathering place.







EDIT: If tong's bi-weeklies or w/e on wednesday continue into next semester, i'll be there, i have school on wed. so i could drop by for sure.

On a serious note, more teams is needed, every time outside teams come from other states, in general, we get ****ing stomped. Lets end that bull**** prz =)

I have a question, Wes. Do you still have ties with the guys at XPlayGrounds? That was a top-tier venue; I'd drive there for Melee, and I don't even play the game competitively anymore.

lol at any GA team beating the incredible double bubble peach.

I mean, me and marty beat a ganon fox team on mushroom kingdom 2. That to me means that we are basically unstoppable.

Teams MM me and Josh?

10$/per teammate 2/3?




But back on topic: yes we need more teams entrants. I HATE going to a tournament with a decent sized turnout and then only like, 6 people enter teams when 20 showed up. >.<

When you got chaingrabbing in brawl you can't get really get kids to join. Only people who enjoy the challenge and know why the game's so awesomely fun.

I would enter teams, but i never really want to ask for a teammate. Although i try to smash whenever i can, i feel bad about "Dragging them down". I know the only way to get better at teams is through friendlies, but until i have a car, i'm not mobile, and my lack of mobility is my real problem now.

I love teams.
I love Melee.

As soon as i get my car(Should be next month) I will make an effort to attned every tournement and smashfest i can. Since i play friendlies with people closer to me, it is my hope that be me facing tougher competition and improving, i will be tougher competition for them and have them improve.

Simply put, i love melee, and I make an effort to attend every event i can. However, right now im more or less the stupid spectator of the melee community. I can watch matches and comment on how fun they look, but i can't really get involved due to my lack of transportation.

havent talked to them at all in a year and a half, i'll drop by soon, talk to larry, and probably not ask him to do it right off the bat, but i'll see if i can get something goin, even if its a smaller tourney, i'll try to make it a EVERYONE SHOULD COME LOCALLY type thing.

Awesome man, im glad all my threads and **** are started to introduce some new names to me. Just stick to the boards and try to find someone closer to you. oh, and this is a general announcement but. . .


IF ITS NOT TOO MUCH TO ASK CAN, CAN EVERYONE PUT IN THEIR ACTUAL LOCATION UNDER THE "LOCATION" SECTION OF THEIR PROFILE, IT WOULD MAKE THIS SORT OF THING TONS EASIER!!! SERIOUSLY!!!!!!! NO ONE KNOWS WHERE YOU KIDS LIVE, YOUR LITTLE MADE UP TAGS ARENT COOL OR FUNNY, AND NO ONE CAN FIGURE OUT HOW TO HELP YOU!


but yeah, b-down, in the meantime just see if any of your friends are interested in actually playing smash, show them some videos, and let them know that everything is just a few steps away, all it takes is a little work that easily pays for itself in enjoyment, not only is smash one of the most fun games around, but its easily the most rewarding game ive ever played =P

Could everyone take this seriously, namynam, i probably wont be able to help out before christmas, but i think you should let everyone know what city you live in through your name/account settings so that when someone from your area happens to see you, they can contact you, its a far better chance than mentioning it once on a thread that wont be around in a week. this goes for everyone. ^_^

i dont have problems findin players in my town, im tryin to get some games in with people out of town like the ATL area....
So are you in augusta for the school year and then in savannah or what? have you heard of drugged fox or ss118? Look them up on smashboards and tell them i sent you, they're from savannah and easily the best players there. They're highly technical, but if you want to play them, i can explain to them how to help you get better, trust me, they're pretty good.
