I don't know if they've locked up or not. I think they were going to but ran out of time or something. I might be mixing up them with Mookie
I can assure you that I have no idea what you are talking about :-P.

Haha I'd rather know the complete and utter truth, but if were in on this I claim a TO spot for SSB64 lol. That's all I really care about. SSB64>Brawl>Melee>Real Life
Deal :D

Sorry for double posting... BUT...


I've got it! If we were to create an on campus (University of Memphis) Smash Brothers organization, then we would have a free place! We could do biweekly tournaments there! It would be awesome! This could work... I'd need UofM students in on this though (i.e. BunBun, WEZL, OD, J-Bar, and other Memphis Smashers). We'll need a faculty member to be the RSO's "advisor." Alright! I feel like a genious, now it's time to pester a few teachers and UofM students and create a constitution of some sort.

It's a huge hairy mess to run it as a student organization. You're welcome to try, but we didn't have much success at Purdue.
MSU does it pretty well. I'm sure there's drama involved but it's still worth a shot. All we need is access to a room twice a month.

Cool, wanna be the treasurer or VP? I hear you're good with holding onto funds for future tournies, so I thought I might ask you to do that. Plus, you're probably a better TO than I am lol.

So I'm going in Tuesday to talk to Professor Banning. He agreed to be the Advisor for the RSO, and wants to talk about a few things. So it looks like we'll be good to go on the monthlies at least, if not biweeklies. I know it seems like I've taken over for Ambix, but he's leaving in 1-3 days to move to Pittsburg, and I want to make sure these biweeklies/monthlies happen.

Gracias. I would love to include all of MS, AR, TN, and some of KY and AL in the biweeklies. I think they'll be awesome.

these need to start up so i can improve lol
Were a registered RSO at memphis now. I'm just trying to come up with a date we can start and a room we can use. I should find out today or tomorrow. I will immediately post a thread when I find out.

So far it looks like this

Parking might be about $2 for the garage

Venue fee: Non-existant

Brawl Singles: $10
Brawl Doubles: $10 per team ($5 per person)

Melee Singles: $10
Melee Doubles: $10 per team ($5 per person)

Payouts will be 60/30/10 x 75% of the pot.
25% will skimmed off the top for savings that will go towards hosting a national level tournament of our own. We will have a bank account and I will allow anyone to see it during the biweeklies. That way JodoDragon (Treasurer), WEZL (VP), and I (President) are held accountable.

Side events: $1 (Winner takes all)
First side event will probably be a Brawl Minus FFA tournament, and I'll accept other ideas too of course.

Do you mean a point system for rankings? For PRs I'll continue the system I'm doing which is on http://www.mempisbrawlers.com. The problem with a point system is that it penalizes someone who missed a tournament for some random reason. I just keep track of who places where, and who they lost to. It's definitely more fair.

For example: BunBun might get a bad draw and get beat consecutively by IHSB & Iori, but he's placed before and is ranked in top 5. Well he probably won't get demoted more than 1 rank because he lost to 2 of the best in Memphis. In a point system this could potentially drop him waaayyyy back. Also if BunBun's random family member is hospitalized the night before and BunBun cannot attend, a point system penalizes this also.

I need to update the current rankings, because I haven't updated them since the 3rd tournament.

But yeah, crew battles sounds awesome!

50 Terranite? Really?
I would play anyone in Arkansas except VTS.

Which is kind of goofy.



EDIT: Also, Chamberlain would probably 13 stock me or something goofy.

I had a dream last night where they announced/confirmed characters for MvC3, but the only ones I remember were the first two. The first announcement was the return of Amingo, and the second was some random Sonic character that probably only exists in fanfiction, if at all. I think it was some kind of weasel or ferret or something, I only remember it having white fur, being a guy, and looking more over-sexed than that one batchick.
