I haven't been to a tournament since Final Smash 6, which was maybe 4 years ago? Watching apex has made me want to come back to brawl; I'll try to come to this.

I play Kirby for mid-tiers if anyone wants to team.

Should I practice the infinite dimensional cape for this, or will you ban it in the rule-set?

I can confirm on bringing 1 full setup. However, my Wii is not hacked to save replay data longer than 3 minutes so yeah. Also how long does a HOBO tournament last with a good turnout? If I can recall, I've been to a HOBO at the Monster's Arcade venue a LONG time ago with a buddy of mine (Gova) and that HOBO lasted almost until midnight. I am just curious because I have plans the following day so I want to prepare ahead of time in case the tourney lasts well over midnight. I do not want to worry about going home and taking the setup with me which will probably effect the speed of the tournament.

Yea the HOBO you went to was abnormal. We had lots of people but low amount of set-ups. This time it wont be like that. I can get everybody out of the venue before midnight if people bring a full set-up.

Oh yea man definitely my :falco: and your :sheik: we can spend every game shooting people, jabbing people, getting gimped and killing at 200%.

Or we can just take 20$ and throw it off of an overpass.

or i can leave it off and then DQ people trying to abuse the loop hole.

THAT sounds like a winner to me.
What is the point in a rule-set if you are given the authority to disqualify people indiscriminately?

Well then, I'll just enter a tournament and the first person I play, I'll unplug their controller.

Or punch them in the face.

IT'S NOT IN THE RULESET, HURRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

Come on now...don't be that guy.

Come on, thats not even a remotely fair comparison. Its common sense that we only test skills within the game. Its not okay to touch people's stuff or hit them any time so there wouldn't need to be a rule for that.

Rulesets should encompass everything that can be done in the game or tournament setting. and @ espy all he needs is "at TOs discretion" and its perfectly fine.

MikeHaze rule says otherwise...

Well, I don't see it, so I guess people can scream in their opponent's faces during matches.

People really need to stop being ******** with exploiting rulesets.

Mikehaze rule didn't need to even exist. The ICs player should have put down the controller and ***** slapped him just the same as if he had done it at a bus stop, a restaurant, a football game or church. You don't need rules for things that are already covered in everyday life. Only out of game stuff that needs governing is stuff like showing up on time to matches, bracket manipulation etc.

Yes. I'm glad to see you still play SSBB :)
Of course! I have always played within a group of buddies including Gova and never really expanded out into the community. Most of them seem to have gotten into other games or just quit entirely. So I was left with really nobody to play with! I have always wanted to play people so good where I just get destroyed which I think Asa did one tournament we went to. (Sorry it could have been someone else, don't remember exactly who it was) It was demoralizing but FUN. It makes me want to get better and I hope to see you at the HOBO though!

The ruleset is there to govern all action in-game. You're argument is ******** and invalid.

Xyro, remove it from the ruleset.

Then you will get your wish.

Set the trap...

I wish someone had the tech skill and stamina to do the IDC for 16-24 minutes each set. Honestly if someone could pull that off they'd deserve the win.
