what kind of dead game pays 1st place over 700$, you dumb allan, 40 is a fine number. genesis brawl/melee entrants were about dead even, suck on that lesbo!
Ozz, some times i wonder how u make it thru life. You really are a ****ing moron.



Go look up GOOD turnouts for melee and go look up how many events for melee were being held.

now look for it in 2008-2009. SEVERE DRASTIC HUGE drop. In tournies and in turn out. Melee gets one HUGE event every once in a while and brawl gets them every other month it seems.

go to the front page of swf, look at the activity in the melee area vs the brawl area. brawl wins.

Look at all the MELEE pros. Azen/chu/ken/isai/cort/vidjo/m2k/neo/bum/dire/meep/Kosmos/HugS/ DSF.....i can go on but whats the point. MOST of them went to brawl or quit altogether. VERY VERY few ONLY stick hardcore with melee. Its a dead game.

Melee disks aint being made any more.......dead game.



As always the list can go on as to why brawl is the future(wether its "better" or not) and melee is dead in most areas and dying in all other areas. You STILL have lots to learn ozz.




tarzan: maybe the 1vs1 fee was 15$ or something? Please THINK.
So if you think 40 players is "ALIVE AND WELL" then go ahead.

I made a post at MGC website to see when they are coming to Houston and askd them questions about fees. I read that it MIGHT be in november but it wasnt confirmed. They are already using my ruleset for the brawl events so thats cool.

40 * 15 = 600.

Over 1,000 was paid out for singles alone, which means unless the entrance fee was $25, there was obviously either a sponsorship or more than 40 entrants.

Please THINK.

So if you think a sponsored game or a regional tourney that had a payout of over 1k is a "DEAD GAME," then go ahead.

Please READ what i said, i never said it WAS 15$. Dont be like tarzan. you make yourself look bad
Do ho ho. The context of what you were saying was trying to justify the payout vs the number of entrants since 40 is still classified as "a dead game" and a "low turnout" to you.

Whereas in realityland where the rest of us live, Tipped Off 5 actually had 80-90 (I've been told 88 actually entered singles, with over 100 in the door) entrants in singles. That is a larger number than most Brawl tournaments.

I wanna join in on this "Melee's a dead game," but I'll let them go on As If The World Wasn't Ending :)

Edit: So HOBO 19 isn't too far away. It'll be fun. First tourny in a while that hasn't had anything special standing out about it to me, though.

I bet Jog is hot and heavy into soaps since he doesn't have to goto work/school.
My mom told me that the longest or 2nd longest soap ends this year. Guiding force or guiding light or guiding house. something
