hey Rockettrainer, I'm setting up a smashfest the night before the next tourney.
Also, smash at my house all over the place.
Hmm, I'm interested. Last minute practice is always the best. :)

I'd be free this Tuesday and Wednesday if anyone wants practice...

Yeah I guess you already knew Alan (we did play friendlies) but I played Marth. And btw Kitty played Wolf (ironic no?).

FooXero you live in Katy? I've been wondering who lived in the Katy area, I live in Fulshear not too far from Katy, maybe we could get together for a little smashfest sometime, I could bring Kitty and maybe some more of my friends. Also, anyone else live in the Katy area?

I have a whole bunch of friends from school who smash it up. Yes I live in Katy, however I fear that we are extremely outclassed. Between... the 10 of us that play, 3 of us have played in a tournament, (this one), and we got wrecked. Granted, we are more than willing to practice and get better and throw around our weight on May 31st :) We aren't bad and won't embarrass ourselves, but we just have a lot to learn :)

@ FooXero: Well I'm not that great either, I played Marth in the tourney and got wrecked, but I think I'm switching mains to Falco now. My friend plays a mean Wolf (Kitty, who got 25th), and I have some more friends who are anywhere from worse than me to almost as good as Kitty, so I think we wouldn't outclass each other.

Ugh. So many Snakes and MetaKnights. I cant believe I got 17th/80 just by forward tilting with Snake. I saw plenty of stupid crap in this tournament, makes me wonder if its even worth investing any more time into this game the way its turning out. Its looking to be even less balanced than Melee.

Nice tournament, can't wait for the next one.
I did a little poor during the tournament, but oh well. Theres always the next one.

Except Mr. 3000 was too strong for me, blarrr ;o

Pozerwolf: We still need to do our money match, lol
Next tournament for sure.
I was kind of waiting for a long time, but there was like hold up for no reason to get to the finals (I don't know the people running it just decided to take there time like that when Teams had to be ran, oh well).

Due to the long hold up, I decided to leave.
Sry ;(

I'm not from Houston so i don't know to many people but here are my limited shout outs.

Abren: thanks for driving me there. Hopefully we wont get lost if we ever go again.

Hylian: your G&W knocked me into losers and rightfully so. At least i was able to beat you one, even if it was a snake ditto.

Stiltz: That olimar was crazy. I've never played a good one and i didn't even know where to begin. That ****** shouldn't live to 180%!!

Flip: That was an intense DK v Snake match. Those combos on the bottom of cornaria made me feel foolish for counterpicking it. Thank god for that holy hand grenade at the very end.

Furbs: I only saw you play a few matches but your yoshi is still top notch.

Mr. 3000: I saw that match where that pikachu spiked your DDD. That was incredibly unfortunate but you still have the best DDD I've ever seen.

DugFinn and Xyro: Nice work hosting the tournament.

Sethlon: I was waiting till i had to face you or hylian but hylian got to me first so i never played against your falco, maybe next time.

Anyone I forgot: Sorry

4th place is so close to the money but eventually I'll place top 3 and then everyone will have to shoutout to me =P

Myself, DarkSmurfs, ErfonisOwn or something like that (their names are close, check on page 158) were all from my school and we are all more than willing to hook up and get some smashing on this summer. For now though, however, AP exams are on. Perhaps after? We're looking for more people to play.

Lol that holy nade was a foolish move by me to air grab it. But intense match the whole way. Almost lasted the whole 6 minutes :O. Out of curiosity, by me picking up the nades, did it mess up the your flow?

WHOOAA, the two sets I lost were against Kira (who got 4th) and CezarWTF (who got 7th)! The matches were close, too! Went to the third round for both of those sets. Well, if I'm gonna lose, I may as well lose to some of the best, no? :p

Only me and my friend Itachi could come this time around, and, once again, we couldn't fit any practice time in b4hand. We both just came back from SAT'ing. :dizzy: Hopefully next tourney all my friends can come.

Hey Xyro, I mained, main and will always main Link, and Itachi mained Lucario.

Most of the nades you returned never hit me cause i cooked them, but i wasnt able to nade you and then rush you with the motor slide the way i like to so you definately made me have to play outside my norm. Also, that DK bair combo you almost killed me with was intese, i had to let myself drop to near death before my upB just to stop it.

The tournament had 81 entrants!!!!!!!!!! This is a TEXAS STATE record. I want to thank DugFinn for helping me out on this. Like always, we make a great team.

Also, i have set up another tournament at PZ for may 31st. This gives you a 3 week break for finals/other stuff.

EVERYBODY! please post WHO YOU MAINED in this tournament. im trying to keep track of who every body used. If you played some one, plz tell me thier main too!!!! PLZ!
awesome tourney as always Xyro

I go by Okami now and mained Zamus/Link

Gil mained Meta/Snake

Weegi mained Wario

Weegi has some vids that he'll post soon of the tourney (not the least of which was the T-Rex vs. Sethalon games) He's working on it right now.

ggs to (almost) everyone I played...didn't get to play any big names though :(

had a great Zamus ditto early on in friendlies...didn't catch the guy's name though....need to play you again if i can find you...I should have lost...the tag said "Abren" but I didn't see it on the ranking list

Kitsu...need to play you again...maybe my new control won't break the moment I play you :urg: ...still a good game though...no-one expects the self bomb

I know!!
I didn't even have that much fun going to the opera, I was mad the whole time 'cause I could sense the amazing amounts of WIN going on at Planet Zero.
I'm all over the next one tho.
I have to get my wisdom teeth removed I hope that doesn't get in the way...

Yeah, my dad said it was cool if we had a smashfest at the house in Pearland the night before the next tourney, and I'm pretty sure that's like 20 mins closer than the other house.

LMAO this made me roll outta my chair. Seriously.

Once again a great tournament ran by TGM and DugFinn. GJ.

And to anyone who was wondering, I have NOT given up on olimar. I used him just as much as my meta, I wouldn't have been able to beat DMK and Kira if it wasn't for my steroid-fed pikmin.

Anyways, anyone expecting a shoutout from me, you know I love ya.

Oh if anyone want's to play in the near future, hit me up. I know I talked to a few people at the tourney so yea if you remember me (Huge Beautiful Luscious Curly haired dude) then hit me up.
