Since every second not spent with DugFinn is better spent with DugFinn, I might decide to just show up. :laugh:
At hobo 19 ill raise 2vs2 to 10$ per person(as a test) and allow metaknight. Inui/dojo/utd, does that sound good?

If I can get a partner that scores me top three for sure (Zac again, Dojo, Dphat, etc.) I will probably come to HOBO 19 if you do that. :)

Fine by me.

I've always suggested raising doubles prices to 10 a person. Alot of people enjoy it just as much if not more than singles and it is a main event.

It's silly that doubles only pay out at most half of what singles does, after dividing it amongst the players... 10 per person is better.

UTD Zac being TX's best doubles player shouldn't be literally worth 25% of what Dojo's single skill is.

That's what keeping the entry at $5 means.

It's extremely disrespectful to the event of doubles itself and the players that excel in it.

Edit: All the good doubles players look taken and Atomsk always has horrendous attendance in school so I doubt his parents will let him go, so I won't be able to attend HOBO 19. =/

I'm 100% certain that Xyro didn't mean any offense to anyone through making doubles cost $5, it merely encourages more people to enter doubles.

As for your edit, aren't you the Creator of being a Genius Doubles God v2.0 ? If so, you wouldn't require someone else to carry you to victory ;)

It's not intended, but it's still reality.

Why do people say this trash?

I don't require someone to carry me, but with those very powerful teams already forming, I require a good partner.

Doubles Genius =/= genius at carrying.

Doubles involves two people. I need a solid partner in order for it to actually be doubles.

You're falco is weird. It was nothing but Utilt and Fsmash and I lost to that when Ozz's Falco is alot more technical and gives me more trouble but I win a fair amount against him. I was the one with the :V tag. I dont think I mentioned anything about his matchups though. I'm not insulting. I'm just embrassed that I lost so hard to you when I normally dont lose to Falco's like that. Its GGs and all. I got mindgamed hard. No johns. I want to rematch you and change it so that I come out on top consistantly. That's all. :V


in Plus as you are in Brawl.
Wait, you were the guy at the brawl + machine? Heh yeah, falco is weird in that game in general. with no DI or momentum cancelling seems like you can do spike and chain uptilts.

This tourny was pretty dope overall I had a great time in H-Town. I just wish we weren't so cramped in there. Hotel discounts FTW.

Trela- I felt bad I had to gay it up that first round with those SD's, I was getting wrecked and had to do something. I am looking forward to playing you again im sure our matches will be better. BTW you got the coolest hat ever.

Kates- Good matches, they were all pretty good. Like your ZZS and hope to play you again sometime.

Eclipse Kirby- Good matches you gave me a good scrare a couple of times. I gave you a tough matchup but im sure you will come back next time. We will try to bring Espy next time he can prob give you some good Sonic advice, casue lord knows he has wrecked me enough times.

Xrro- The Green lesbian wrecked me something fierce. I don't know **** about the matchup and hope to give you some better competition next time. No Johns though I know I'm pretty scrub, i guess i just got to do better next time. Awesome job as a TO, this was my second HOBO and hope to come to more in the future.

Airbrush King- Super chill dude. Had fun hanging with you at the Galeria, and thanks for showing us around Houston. Sorry about the whole drama with you and PZ, hope this doesn't hurt your relationsip with the community. I am looking forward to chillin with you at the next HOBO.

SA Crew- You guys made the stay too fun. I am glad we actually got to have a good time in the city. We will step up for the next tourny and hopefully do some more damage in the bracets.

majority of teams play are with good friends, or experimenting. sure doubles should be more serious, but its hard to win, when cooperation is the key. most people know that at $10 per person, great players will team with great players. its very hard to throw 10 bucks away when half the time it isnt your fault. i really dont mind, but 70% of the ones who attend will.

Doubles is considered better and is preferred by most players everywhere I go.

TX seems to be the only exception here, according to you.

I feel bad for UTD Zac, Dphat, and PhantomX.

well, i dont know bout you, but most people watch singles in melee more than doubles. sure isai didnt care much for singles after awhile, but most did. At top level play, sure doubles is great. but most tournys want to see the number of teams go up, rather than down. w/ a price increase like this, it will surely go down.

Yeah, I'm not going to etner another singles HOBO until Metaknight is legal in singles play.

It's sorta ridiculous how we're so closed off from other regions.

Inui, let's team.

The number of teams, at most, will drop by about three if singles is truly preferred. The amount of money to win will still be significantly higher, though.

Teach me to be better in doubles please.
Come play with me.

As much as I admire Allan's desire to stand on his convictions and his passion for the pro-ban side, I must agree with the above players. No other area is hosting MK-banned events consistently and from what I saw the TX scene is heavily anti-ban right now.

I don't think Allan banning MK is a good thing for his events or the TX scene, tbqh. I hope you don't take offense to that, Allan. I still <3 you.

Esca, I probably can't attend the next HOBO.
