Ok, depending on how many people go in the vehicle that I go in, I'll bring my TV, Wii, and cube if necessary.

Make that a pending thing though, studly! Can't bring a TV if it's too cramped, but I'm pretty positive I can bring the Wii.

Btw, make sure to have all characters/stages unlocked on your Wiis people, and have all characters/stages unlocked saved on your memory cards for Melee!

EDIT: Will yelling of any sort be allowed at the tourney btw, studly? It'd be pretty awesome if it's allowed because I get really animated during this kind of stuff sometimes lol :p

I was going to have a recording setup in time, but it got shipped to the wrong place (I'll have it for sure by the next tournament, if I can go.) I will have a Wii, but I'll only be able to stay until a little after the end of the Brawl tournament because I have a big family dinner in Hanna City.

Sounded like some people from the smashfest today are planning on coming to this.
I don't think I'll be able to make it though :(
chewwy, I had a lot of fun in that set against your weegee/samus. I def. don't consider you a brawl kid anymore, and you should REALLY try to make it out to more melee, man, you've got hella potential, I can't imagine how good you'd be if you kept playing
btw, I beat Blake 6-5 in grand finals. The set was close as ****. Will be on youtube eventually
And Peoria, I'm going to this, but it's only gunna be me and samurai. Is Rashad going to come?
Also, I will money match you, Josh.

Unfortunately, Rashad's money supply is running on EXTREMELY ****ING LOW, so he can't make it :/. Should still be some good matches dude, me and Josh have gotten a lot better, at least I think so :p.

im gonna go with legion on that



yeah so that was semi-successful ...

thanks to everyone who helped me out... to Anthony and Josh for supporting the idea
...and to tomacawk and samurai for coming down

had fun playing everybody in melee. Get a venue that isn't ridiculously hard to find next time :p
as the venue is concerned... i really dont know where else i could do it around here.. but if someone from pekin or peoria were to give me some venue options, i would most deffinately consider it

if i run another one of these it will have alot more attention given to the melee side of the tourney... it deserves more feedback

oh and thanks to you guys for making me realise melee is worth playing... hopefully ill be able to pick it up

Yeah dude studly, your crew was surprisingly decent at Melee even for not playing it much ^_^. It'd be pretty awesome if you guys got better at it for sure dude! Just gotta spend some time playing it, whether it be practicing tech skill with CPUs/controller-plugged-in-with-no-one-playing-on-it, or playing other people, you'll definitely get better.

Btw, gg's on Brawl, I've decided I'm just going to stick to Wario from now on I guess because no one else catches my fancy. Too bad he gets owned so hard by grab releases...but oh well...DON'T GET GRABBED! And Legion, I'm still kicking my forehead for picking Olimar. UGH!!!

I had a great time as well. Nice playing everyone.

I thought the venue was fine, and now everyone that was there at least knows where it is. Google Maps lead me right to it.

an8676 - My wife is from Hanna City too - on Smithville Road. That's pretty crazy. I just figured I was the best smasher in Hanna City every time I went there. I'm gonna add your friend code next time I boot up my Wii (probably later this week). Maybe I'll see you online sometime. Post the links to the video when you get a chance!

thats funny, because my google map directions gave wrong turns, so we called someone at the venue for direction, and there was a part where it said keep following signs and stuff.

Hmmm.... That's weird. I was going a very backwoods way from Hanna City down some roads where I didn't pass anyone, but it got me there.

I was using the GPS on my iPhone though, so maybe that's different than the maps from a computer.
