Hey! You people!
















/hug
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH BOY!!!


If you guys are worried about sc taking long but love sc like I do then lets just best of 1 game on the map Python till finals.

Say 8 people enter and the average game takes 30 mins (thats way longer than the actual average [which is 12.5 minutes]). That means ro8 takes 30, ro4 takes 30, then its just placement.

I see a tourny like that taking 3 hours tops for 8 people.

A tournament like that can work around the other events of course.
See here's the thing we play the game but we are just noobs at least I am >.<
Point being chances are every game is going to go for at least 30mins or so which it will stall the other tourneys and since we have like 5 tourneys going for Brawl we need no stalling but Fastest Map will work mainly cause is. . . . .fast anyways we just play it for fun so yeah <(^.^<)


Jake forgot his password like a donk so he wanted me ask if Low Tier was going to be 5 dollars (since you said something about 4 events would be $20).
How do you forget your password o.0
Anyways yeah low tiers can either be $1-5 I just figure people will rather do a dollar but I good with either.


ngamer is korean

hes gonna play
Well then that means he already won GG ^.^

I vote for 1$ low tier.

Also if we're going to do tournament mode for Melee again, no more 4 minute timer looooool.

I love sc, Brawl has always been my secondary game but it has more of a real scene at the local level. I would absolutely love to play some face to face for even a minor stake.


Ill see about bringing one setup at least for brawl. I *will* bring a mobile sc setup.

stttaaarrrrr crraaffftttttt


and




LT aint really a "balanced" map. I prefer a more standard map such as Fighting Spirit, Medusa, Python, Destination... anything from the current pro scene.

If your legit non money maps is the iCCup map list then ya, like 95% of that is fine!

You got a ladder rank son?
got a ladder rank from like 6 years ago lmao, haven't used B.net for a while, tired of the hacks, its just LAN play nowadays.

I'm planning on giving Jlo a ride if he still needs it, and he did mention a friend was coming. I suppose I assumed it was Jacob; is that you? :p

Let me know where to get you guys at. We're not picking up the Carlisle guy anymore, so there shouldn't be any time issues. I think we were planning on heading over to a copy place around 11 which shouldn't take long, then we can head over and get you guys.

Edit: Connor works tonight and would rather sleep in a bit tomorrow, so we'll probably plan on heading to the copy place around 11:30 or 12 instead.

Joker I plan on being there around 1130 or so. I don't think I'm gonna bring a set up. Too much of a pain to move my tv and stuff.

Well right now I have like 4 TVs extras we can use for Brawl since I don't think we're going to have Melee at least not tourney but could use one of them for Melee either way Bolt just bring a Wii/Brawl not sure who's all bringing anything but I like to have some extras if anything.

Hey guys, if you could compile a list of gym leader interest again, I'm going to post it on the anime iowa forums. I'll post this initial list and whenever you want to reply, take the most recent list in the post before yours and just add your name to it.

Gym leaders:

Sabrina - Afrayail



So the next person should copy that, add their name, and the person after that copy theirs, etc ^_^ I might just make a blog or something to keep track of it.. it'd be easier >.> we'll see how this goes.

We should hold a $1 Melee Tournament. People only like Low Tier because they suck and can't compete in regular tournies. Cya scrubs tomorrow.

I do want a 1$ Melee tourney either double elim or round robin or something. Tournament mode sucks even more then a regular tourney.

I am seriously considering retiring. MK and IC's are too f*cking stupid. The ONLY thing keeping me from it is that I would be leaving se'kou in the dust. So I might just do teams from now on.

Yeah, I totally left my mouse there. Heh. It's probably still connected to your laptop, Joker.

Anyway, I love these tournaments and Iowa City had a great time. Too bad I can't come to the real monthly, wish me luck at E.

Thanks for all the games--

Next time, my set up = TvC only! Ha!

you know.... Wario might be a good choice since Se'kou can teach you quite a bit of what I've been developing these last 2 years.

I don't think it's so much the char that I'm playing, it's just the way that singles is played. Any game where the goal can be to time your opponent out, i do not think it is a respectable game. Everyone already knows where I stand on the IC's they're just ********. It's just not fun for me anymore.
