Also Zebra is 12 and apparently doesn't understand that Melee is going on this weekend. Its a good thing us Brawl players just love bad games.
so what ur saying is, he's only 2 years older than the game itself o.O

Melee is a bad game along with most video games made these days.
pretty much this but there is always those hidden gems out there sometimes

IT TALKS ABOUT APRIL BUT IT'S SEPTEMBER AND I'M 12 AND WHAT IS MONTHS
Obviously hes referring to himself in this post.

I liked Rogue Galaxy. Kinda random but I know everyones talking about the new Level 5 RPG coming out yet barely anyone has played Rogue Galaxy.

EDIT:
That's cool, I actually had a boards account in 2006 ish, but I forgot the login =/... And yeah, I'll probably never end up coming to any of these because of lack of Melee



I love melee, and I love the Smash community... Just because I have a really weird sense of humor people can never tell whether I'm joking... Anyway, I could really care less about your "**** list", because you don't even know me, yet you judge me just because you hate Melee.

If any of you guys ever wanna chill/play melee, just pm/vm me, otherwise I'll probably not be on this thread at all...

Nice meeting you brawl people.
Just laughing here that you came into this thread to talk about how much better Melee is and how its a "real" game and saying Greg is judging you because he hates Melee, but then you post about how you're quitting the thread because you've already judged everyone as "Brawl players." :bee:

Yet your most likely chance to play Melee with decent players is literally coming up in the next get-together, and you could've found out all this easily by reading. GGs dude.

But you really can't talk. You liked MK. :3

MK9 is fun, I'm not saying I'd take it competitively or seriously, but I have more fun with MK9 due to it's simplicity and the fact that it feels the same as UMK3 than MVC3 with it's crazy learning curve and waiting for an assist to hit so you can chain your hits and less than average physics engine from the series as whole (when compared to MVC2 and especially (S)SFT2).

And I bet he knows but he's having fun with yallz. None of you have made much of a case for him to come, if a bunch of people were like "We all bad", would you want to show up somewhere further away with the same level of competition you could get in your home town, with no monetary compensation likely? If Joker would just say "Yo, I'm rusty but I bet I could take you down" I bet Zebra would come and have a good time and lose :0

It's just that it's a 2 hour drive and I don't want to make it unless a lot of people will play Melee with me...

Brawl singles IMO, is better than melee singles so long as you aren't getting CG'd. For people talking about how gay brawl is, melee singles is just as gay and has more gay things (CC, ledge shield gimps) and you can play just as campy in brawl as in melee, and you get punished harder.
This made me laugh hard. Worst opinion I've seen in ages.

Whether he knows or not, hes been making a statement in each post about Melee, and he mundanely asks the same thing. I just find it funny.

Edit: We're basically telling you how it goes down. Don't expect a celebratory day of Melee, but its unlikely you would go down there and not play it if you asked. As for how "good" people are, its all subjective so you can't really get **** from posts on swf.

We don't need anymore new****. That's how we got you.

What I meant to say, is that the OP doesn't say that it happens every week, it just gives the info for some random week in April, that's the only reason that I didn't automatically know when/where everything was :mistyface:

And I never asked how good any of you were.

That was a reply to Rob's post. Also Joker posted the info in an underlined post, the address and numbers are in the OP, and you should just assume its on a Saturday like the previous tourneys. Hope you find people to play if you go!

Zebra, if you creep, people will play Melee with you. Chris and Greg play Melee. Joker plays sometimes. Twink will be there and he's pretty good. Rob would probably play games with you too, although he's actually here for Brawl usually. Yulai plays a little Melee. I used to play Melee a little bit too. You will have a decent variety of folks to play with, but don't expect a coast sized amount of people lol. We're the good ole Midwest, after all.

If you wanna get some decent practice in while you're here in Iowa, this might be one of the better times to come and game. Hope to see you there, bro.

Just moved here from East Coast, and yes, I noticed >.<. Maybe I'll come, maybe I won't, depends on how many people want to come with me.

This is where people like Rob can say hes "good."
BTEH2, Lawrence, KS. (most recent melee tournament in MWW)
Melee Singles:
5: Rob (17 people)

Melee Doubles:

2: JBM + Rob ($42.00) (7 teams)
I'd play you but I'm only kinda good...
So, to reiterate, I'm only kinda good and that's only if you consider the most recent tournament results, otherwise I'm bad. All I do is platform camp.

Zebra, if you creep, people will play Melee with you. Rob would probably play games with you too, although he's actually here for Brawl usually. I used to play Melee a little bit too.
Tyser is amazing, if he shows up for 1 hour it's worth your time. Seriously.

yeah my only way to this would be Tyser at this point
...and I'm a brawl player :troll:.
If Tyser decides I'm asian enough, I'll see if I can't get a ride with him, but I'm doubting it.

If I'm in Iowa, I don't see why I would play melee since I get incredibly good melee practice in Nebraska, obviously I'd want to play Iowa in brawl since Tyser decided he wanted to kill the Nebraska brawl scene by refusing to play me no one is practice worthy in brawl in Nebraska.

tbh, JBM plays more brawl than I do, fact. He plays at work, but that's okay, he works in Iowa.

That all being said, I would and have gladly played melee against people at Jokers during brawl playing time. I spent about 40 minutes playing ScrubNBubbles and Jayford the last time I was there and I always enter melee tournaments.

Why does the discourse of this thread always degenerate to bashing FGs? Maybe you guys should find another hobby to take up together-- join a bowling league or something.

they're jealous nobody takes smash for cereal.

Halo is fun. idc what anybody says. If you guys don't think that's a 'real' shooter, what is? Please don't say CoD because if so, that game is every bit as incompetent as Halo (if Halo were to be incompetent)

Maybe I'm pretentious; idk.

Smash football tournaments. I love you Iowa guys like brothers, but Nebraska would stomp the yard. We'd probably stomp all the others states around here too actually.

I'm thinking about going, but the question is...is it worth the gas? I'll only go for Marvel really and Greg and Joker are the only 2 people that I think will be there to play that sooo.....to go or not to go? That is the question.

But Halo is pretty much the worst example. It's basically the Smash of FPS games.
True but I was trying to mention games that have a pretty big league like MLG and such.


New fighters are bad.
Just about man that's why we don't just play only them but instead play mostly RPGs and such cause rarely are they bad ^.^


What I meant to say, is that the OP doesn't say that it happens every week, it just gives the info for some random week in April, that's the only reason that I didn't automatically know when/where everything was :mistyface:
That's cause the info on the front page is for my Monthly's which I haven't had one in a while but tomorrows biweekly is something I tend to do randomly like it's pretty much my way of getting Iowa some tourney practice along with NE which I guess now is only Rob >.<
With that said is mostly practice for Brawl since Melee is just play for fun around here.


I'm thinking about going, but the question is...is it worth the gas? I'll only go for Marvel really and Greg and Joker are the only 2 people that I think will be there to play that sooo.....to go or not to go? That is the question.
If Blank was around I'll say definetly cause he'll pretty much play you in what ever but it sounds like Greg is only going to be here for a bit Uli MIGHT come and I think I'll be busy playing some Brawl since I haven't practice that game much T.T but if you do decide to show I'll find some time to play Mahvel with you.


so when are people showing up at Christian's tomorrow?
Good question.

@EVERYONE: For those who are coming tomorrow show up around noon.

I'll have my 360 with me but I'll likely be the only one with a 360 stick >.> I dunno what time I'll be there though, I'll be coming down from Ames.

I'd like to see someone try and tackle Nims or Tony, though Tomy and I would probably be O-line, though having tony as a TE may be a good option if he has good hands, I'll ask him.

I don't see many people bashing fighters usually except me. Rob chimes in sometimes, but other then that everyone just complains about games in general.

And thats the circle of life, playing games we know are bad~

The one football enthusiast in the Iowa scene would probably be our last pick for an IA football team. Please don't mm us.

Have you played a new RPG that was good?

The sad thing is that your statement is almost true, outside of a few melee players, there isn't much left in NE for smash.

I spent a while tonight thinking of good fighters that came out recently...brawl topped the list for games in the last 5 years. How's that for a bad opinion?

now im only showing up if there is indeed an iowa vs nebraska football tourney.
I still don't see how anyone would tackle Mike Nims.

Someone let me know if this happens, I'll get in shape for like a month before hand so I could play TE and DE, which are probably the two positions I'm best suited for.

Kind of pathetic that a fake football tournament makes me think about how I'd need to get back in shape to even perform to a decent level :/

I'd pick nims up from the legs and he'd get tackled easy.

Iowa would probably lose to NE in football.

Mexi, Tony, Devon, Rob, and Mo probably.
