Houston Thread - No HOBOs and no WHOBOs. What do we do now??????????????????????????????????????????

Mr. game and watch · Dec 3, 2012

I mind gtfo Bama sucks.

I actually am glad you are viewing, makes it feel less like a salty old gen, a top player, and an optimistic scrub all talking trash to each other.

JNig just confirmed for my event. Killik ask sync if he's def coming to Who's Tyler 3 pls

edit: lets revisit the Texas Ruleset idea IMO. Give us SOME unity.

I like the idea of people knowing that if they travel to a different TX scene, they don't have to worry about adapting to a new rule-set.
Also we need to re-do the Lone Star Circuit.

Esca · Dec 3, 2012

Yo G&W, i'm gonna gather a carpool for your tourney that's after apex

Mr. game and watch · Dec 3, 2012

The next one, WT4?
ok, cool. That should be around Feb.

What's been happening in the TX scene anyway? I've heard about the Lonestar circuit, but I don't know many details.

Espy Rose · Dec 3, 2012

I'd love to see a revival of the Lone Star Circuit. It was absolutely fantastic.
Unity's gonna be an icky situation, but if you can get the TOs to agree to some kind of regional set, then you're already two steps ahead of where you started. :applejack:

Mr. game and watch · Dec 3, 2012

I don't know a ton about the LSC, I JUST joined when they were finishing it.

Basically a series of big tournies in every city of TX that had a scene and Austin had the Championships with like a pot bonus.

I would love if we had another one.
Gotta get sync to show up in here tho.
Denti come back~

Zori · Dec 3, 2012

cod4lyfe

*Cam* · Dec 3, 2012

That's a shame; we need more things like the LSC in the Smash scene.

Mr. game and watch · Dec 3, 2012

Xyroooooo say more words pls.

Telling denti to come back here now bcuzz I want this to go down.

Denti · Dec 3, 2012

I would help with a LSC 2.

Xyro77 · Dec 3, 2012

Until the people need a hero, he will not come.

*Cam* · Dec 3, 2012

Xyro, did you run the Lone Star Circuit?

Denti · Dec 3, 2012

He helped(probably the most), but it was a group effort that began with Dojo. Sync gave a huge effort too as well as Zigsta.

Mr. game and watch · Dec 3, 2012

I think Sync actually said something about this before.

Xyro I need you to host/help host/help organize a LSC2 with us.
Me and Denti are Local hosts we need someone with National size exp!

*Cam* · Dec 3, 2012

So why did LSC end? Or was it just a one-time thing?

Mr. game and watch · Dec 3, 2012

One time thing.

I asked Ally on AiB a while back and he said he'd be interested in a LSC2.

The people want it.

July-Nov 2013 leggo

Denti · Dec 3, 2012

Because we had the championship then apex happened.

We tried it again but it just stopped..

I think now is the time though to start it back up.

*Cam* · Dec 3, 2012

I think it would be cool as a recurring circuit. Then again, I don't live in Texas.

Denti · Dec 3, 2012

We probably need it.

What region should we start with? Austin is DEAD, not even a full carpool could come out of their region. So we need a new LSC HQ.

Xyro77 · Dec 3, 2012

I ran 1-2 events of the circuit and the final event aka the championships. because of my perfection in the art of TOing i brought an amazing event to a TRASH city aka Austin.

history books will be written about me.

Xyro77 · Dec 3, 2012

A circuit is X amount of events and then a championship. once its done its done. we tried to set up a part 2 but it never happened. most of this crap is my fault because i quit doing tournaments. I pretty much sink the smash boat when i left.

Heh, players don't know what's good for them sometimes. They want you to cut them a break, but then they get mad when the tournament goes an hour later than planned. Causal relationship or conspiracy on the part of the TO? You be the judge.

Mr. game and watch · Dec 3, 2012

Lets be real here, Houston, DFW, and Tyler are the only scenes now. SanAn has no TO.

Xyro has the most exp. I vote Houston for the HQ.

It doesn't have to end because of one bad monthly, Houston.

Xyro77 · Dec 3, 2012

LOL guys calm down. you cant just "omg lets go a circuit now lol k bye"

this **** takes serious planning. and it takes a while to get all the cities ready to go.

Denti · Dec 3, 2012

Brainstorming. Also SA can have a tournament. They have so few... that one might actually get attention. But tyler is a good idea.

edit: well i'm ready to do what it takes for my scene, mr gaw for his, probably xyro for houston, idk about SA. Nike?

Mr. game and watch · Dec 3, 2012

Ok. Lets plan it NOW. lets start getting scenes involved, get the TO's on board, and start calling venues.

We need this.

my venue is big enough for 50ish people.

Denti · Dec 3, 2012

Yeah, if we are going to have a good circuit the sooner we plan it the better. 2 months of prep is a strong opening.

I'm not saying we rush it and do a bad job. But it has to start somewhere.

edit: where do you stand on housing people for a tyler tournament? that's very important.

Xyro77 · Dec 3, 2012

Serveral things must be discussed before stuff is written into law.

1. How many events?

2. Where will it start and where will it end?

3. Dates? Times?

4. Rule-set?

5. Point system specifics?

6. Each event needs to charge a "circuit fee" so that the final event has a major pot bonus

7. legit venues?

8. Advertisment?

the list goes on. lol ive done this before and if u wanna do it right you gotta do major planning.

*Cam* · Dec 3, 2012

I think starting small is better than not doing anything at all and letting the scene die (not claiming that it's dying, just going based on what I've read here).

Mr. game and watch · Dec 3, 2012

I agree with that denti.
If we don't start the process now, it won't be a brawl circuit, it'll be Smash 4.

Ok, lets major plan.

Two birds with one stone, we should get a Unified TX Ruleset.
Which means MK banned? Dub MK Banned? Stage list? Timer?

Everything else is the same in every rule-set.

I have a venue.

Psy can house a few, Rave can house a few. Our friend John who plays brawl is about to move into a house with some roommates so that's an option.
We also have a lot of cheap Hotels and stuff here.

*Cam* · Dec 3, 2012

Perhaps you guys should decide exactly what group of people is responsible for making the circuit happen first? That way you can divide up the work more formally and get things done.

Mr. game and watch · Dec 3, 2012

Me Denti Xyro Sync Nike Dakpo gogogo

Denti · Dec 3, 2012

Well... we could just use the concepts from last time.

I know this is up for debate but since Apex is what keeps Brawl alive we should probably use it's ruleset.

Replace Austin with Tyler.

Start in Houston or Dallas. Start strong.

Feb is good to start.

Idk about it ending. It should consider making two stops in Houston, beginning and ending. Maybe 2 stops here in Dallas too for a longer circuit.

Try to end in Oct or early Nov.

Idk points atm, we have to examine the last LSC's complaints.

The fee could be the same as the last LSC. No complaints happened iirc.

I have a legit venue, the old phase venue in dallas like always. It's done 80 man tournaments and did the circuit last time. Idk about the rest of everywhere though.

What did we do last time for advertisement?

edit: Dakpo doesn't TO anymore and Sync and Xyro have planned to dual host the same tournament series iirc. Nike might not work, but we don't know that until we ask.

Xyro77 · Dec 3, 2012

Apex rule set is HORRIBLE. Literally hurting this game every time its used.

Denti · Dec 3, 2012

Oh no lol. Okay Xyro, gimi a ruleset that will bring the masses.

*Cam* · Dec 3, 2012

Yes, it would help if more tournaments could be Above the Influence of APEX's ruleset decisions.

Xyro77 · Dec 3, 2012

Denti said:

more stages=more character viability=more attendance.

apex ruleset favors top tiers more than any other characters in the game.

Mr. game and watch · Dec 3, 2012

How about a golf-like point system.

Every person who enters a tourney gets points. Your points are your placing.

1st gets one points, 33rd gets 33 points.

4 Events before the championships based on Dentis list, so the closer you are to 4 points, the higher seed you are.

Denti · Dec 3, 2012

Okay I'm down for RC and brinstar and ps2. I'm feeling flexible...

Could we get a MK scrooging rule though?

Denti · Dec 3, 2012

brb class is starting. i will return.

Houston Thread - No HOBOs and no WHOBOs. What do we do now??????????????????????????????????????????
