This tournament was so much fun. God, I needed this to remember how much I love Melee.
Shoutouts. :3
Melee
2: Velynn ($128) - Puuuuuuuuuuuuuuffffffffff. I did better against you with G&W than Sheik.. I'm taking that to heart next time I see you.
Good games, good placing.
4: Dart ($64) - Get ****ed up in Dot Game, bro. This weekend was majorly awesome. Didn't even flinch losing $20 to you in a MM, even though I think you sandbagged somewhat. 4th place in singles and a guy that didn't even make it out of pools takes you to 1 stock twice? How can you be -that- bad against Sheik? Haha. We'll mess people up in Brawl dubs next time, even if it has to be us styling on them with Falcon/Ganon. xD Good **** all around, draft crew battle was awesome, dot game was awesome, would love to see you and the IL crew again sometime. :D
11: 1der - Oh man, I haven't seen you since like Test Your Might 7 or something, and I beat you then. Putting in work and taking 11th, though, nice stuff. I'll have to play you next time I see you.
11: Sveet - Good teams match.
13: Kail - Good teams match. Were you the Ganon player I was hearing about? I wanted to get ****ed up by a Ganon, but didn't know who was behind the hype. D:
13: Klob - Good job tanking that pool and coming out on top. Just stop playing a scrub character and you'll start to do better.
Doc is my new counter for Peach, **** Sheik. xD
17: John9Blue - JOHN BLUE. REP DAT PEACH IN CREWWWWS. 7 stocks, **** yeah.
17: Carroll - <3. Another awesome PA guy. Good **** @ walking to Five Guys before everyone else got the idea, and the awesome matches we had. We never figured out who that amazing Mario guy was. G&W dittos are the best, and your Marth was beast. Too bad I have SHEIK STUFF. xD
21: Juggleguy - I still would have liked to money match you at some point. Coming into your house Friday night and beating you first game had me super confident for some reason, 'cause your Falcon is really sharp. Also, pools had me salllllty. Three OH players out of, what, eight in the same pool? Definitely upset about getting 5th place in my pool under two people from my own state. Oh well, I would have gotten ****ed up if I had made bracket anyway.
Thanks so much for the housing, too. Most awesome basement ever. Also, if you could maybe mail me my phone charger, that would be sweet, I has contact info if you want it. I don't know when I plan on waltzing up to Michigan in the future, so that would be.. ideal. Haha. Very well run tourney, and the epic cop mindgame was too good.
21: Oro?! - I got slammed by your Falcon in pools and in that draft crew. Mother ****. You're hilarious, though, so I'm glad I got to meet you. Good **** in 64, though I think I've had enough of that game now that I've actually met a crowd of good players.
25: SilentSwag - You're 12 and what is this.
25: Soul - Made bracket with Mario? Good ****, man. Awesome doubles match, though I don't think Cruise was a good pick for Mario/Link. Your recoveries are so bad. xD Phantom hit spin attack, get some. Good games. :D
25: Impp - Close games in pools. I started to get confident after winning game 2. I don't want to believe it, but I think I need to get better at camping. Approaching [your] Zelda is hard.. but forcing you to approach is actually entertaining. I think I might be able to go toe to toe with you.. no pun intended, but you still punish mistakes really well. I'll try to make less next time I unfortunately cross paths with you.
33: Skyson - 5th in your pool... ugh. All you wanted to do was make bracket, and you came so close.. oh well. Bug the TO about region placement next time, 'cause you're still salty about that.
33: DippnDots - I didn't see you! I have to find you 'cause I don't think we've played before, and I always used to mistake you namewise for Dobs. xD
33: FlipX - Scruuub, make it out of brackets. You're the business, but apparently you've gotta get better. Look at all of us OH scrubs floating in a 33rd place tie. Where we at?
33: dablackpacman - You're one of the first people I played friendlies with before registration, I remember. You had an amazing Link, and played a bunch of other characters pretty well. The edgehop bomb stalling was something I've definitely never seen before. Really impressive in doubles, I still can't believe that spin attack phantom hit happened. Some weird **** happens in this game, haha. Good games, man. :D
41: Z-Axis - Zaaaaaach. You're getting better! Keep that Fox strong. I think we make a good doubles team, maybe I should have been practicing doubles instead of doing singles friendlies the whole time before it started. xD Don't get discouraged when Melee is a terrible game, because it totally is. That's why we love it. Also, I am keeping the ****s duck.
41: Slamus - Every time I heard someone say your name out loud I laughed a bit. Just too good.
41: Dempt - Awesome driving, awesome time, hope the mom situation doesn't go bad. :/ Move-ban friendlies are gonna be the next big thing, just you watch. xD
41: Junglefever - Tight doubles match. You had a good Fox. o:
49: DouchebagDave - Also the best name ever. Good ****. IL da best
49: GetLow - Lol Matt. You have to get low to look for Alaska now? Haha. Good friendlies, I was startingly impressed by how much your Peach has improved since the last time I saw you. Beat my Sheik, but then still couldn't handle me when I pulled out the pocket Game & Watch. So delicious. Aha. You're super cool, though, and you definitely should bug the other losers to come down to Massillon on Wednesdays. I need to **** up some Peaches more often.
57: crismas - Good to meet you! I probably played more friendlies with you than anyone else, and I unloaded every low tier I had on you, ahah. All I remember vividly was 3-stocking you with Mewtwo and getting you frustrated with my Game & Watch.
You seemed really down during singles pools, though, so I didn't say anything to you, but you were up and playing friendlies later that evening. Good doubles match too, Peach is just rough to handle. Good games overall. Couldn't stop laughing the whole time we were playing friendlies. xD
49: Machinegungeek: Good games. You didn't give me an easy match. Good friendlies afterward, too. You seemed really hungry to get some matches in. I didn't hear a lot of what you were saying while we were playing, it was... really loud the whole time, haha.
57: Solo: First tournament, really? I practically think we could have been rivals. Your Sheik was every bit as good as mine, I might have just edged you out in Sheik dittos based on me having tournament experience myself. You did SD a couple times and that always blows, but you definitely could improve. You've got skill. From one Sheik to another, I think you did well for your first tourney. :D
- Fox player in my pool: Even though you came in late, you handled it well. I think I got a lot more gay on you than I normally would on, and a lot of luck handed me some easy KOs, but I saw you put in work on some other people. Good games. :D
Put up the pools so I can see the names of people I played, I don't like using generic [x player in my pool]. D:
Other
1: Kain ($240) - Watching you play actually made Brawl look cool. I had heard about you from some other people, and definitely liked watching your Wolf take names. Very good ****.
Dudes that I ****ed up in Yu-Gi-Oh: Good games.
Morphtronics ftw. Get a theme and do work if you play it seriously. If I looked a little elitist when I played, it was accidental. I've played in x tournaments and the tone is always so serious, I took it that way with you guys. Haha. We'll have to play again sometime.
MachinegunNorm - ****ed me up in 64. Pikachuuuuuuuuu. I give up 64 because of this, I wanted to see what a competitive scene was like for 64, and now I have.. and OH has nothing like it. Good games, though.
This tournament was great. Only salty about the pools, but what's there to do? xP
I would happily return to Michigan for a good-*** Melee tourney like this one. :D
This tourney is the reason that I am now a Sheik/Doc/G&W main. Solid 3.
