It sounds like Dragon has the list of the crew who will be coming. I was out of luck on my search. It looks like we will be leaving early Saturday morning instead of Friday night. We will rule the night

There is a chance that Tacoom and my crew will be coming up still on fri, so we dont have to leave so early on sat, but yeah, i would rather come up and smash the night before anyway. Later all.

Finally Some Iowa Action

Hey, is this event "members only" , or can a tourney noob come and get schooled? It's pretty gracious of you to offer up your basement. I'm chillin' in Davenport right now drinking a bottle of Old Style, calculating the distance. I'm thinking from the Quad-Cities , I may just be able to get away with traveling 2 hours.

It is a pretty exclusive event at these tourneys, but i am pretty sure in yourcase we can let ya in.Pretty much, at tourneies, if u can get there u can go. Its at theatre shieks, but i am for sure that he will be cool with another player, and if you have any friends who smash, bring them too.

EZMoney, for some reason I think I remember your name from something. Have you been to any other tournaments? Maybe Snexus? Anyways, I'm sure we could squeeze you in. The more, the merrier. It usually takes me about two hours drive to get to the quad cities, not too bad a drive. Will you be bringing anyone else?

SDM! You should come. It should be a fun ol' time.

Sorry guys, I have decided I'm not goin to this one. I don't wanna tell my folks I'm spending all day Saturday on a smash tourney AGAIN. I've gotta visit at least 1 weekend start to finish.

My guess is the mighty Earthbowser!

I don't know what you're talking about, I would have won even if oits and smack were here... SLAM!

But we'll see, I like to choke during important matches, so who knows.

Should be some good matches, I don't think any one person is going to dominate. Ya never know though!

Iowa taking top 3 oh yea!

Oh yea Earthbowser you should see if the Cedar Rapids guys want to come down.

Yea, I am in need of a partner so if anybody would want to be my partner that would be GREAT! Is omaha bringin down an odd number of people?

Also sorry oits and smack couldn't have come, I was looking forward to playing you guys. Ah well I am sure we will cross paths sooner or later.

Everybody coming don't forget to bring cubes and tvs!

I don't know where Dave's (Cedar Rapids guy) phone number is. I had it written down somewhere in my car, but when I hit the deer, it got lost someplace. I sent him an email though, so maybe they'll show, maybe not, we'll just have to see. He's also very dependent on a ride, so if he gets my email and if he gets a ride from someone, I'm sure he'll come. Two big if's though.

Tonight is the DDR thing going on at the Union; if I didn't have to work, I'd advertise some in person, but I at least put out some of the flyers, so maybe some people will see them. I'll try to go there after work if it's not already done and see if anyone took any of the flyers.

Also, Brandon, you should update the first page since a lot of changes have occured to the original stuff.

okok, thanks for the confidence boost Yoshii. but I do have a few to worry about in my group. And as far as the group goes. I have all the info that we will need. So no need to worry. (Mario_1234, FaceLoran).

Welp, good tournament everybody. Didn't work as well as I had hoped it would, but it was good stuff all the same. Sorry, Aaron I failed your prediction and totally sucked for some reason. I tried pulling out some Doc and Shiek, and in hindsight, that was probably a bad decision. Should just stick to Luigi. I did make some money from money matches though, so it all worked out well in the end.

I don't have the brackets, but from memory top three was

Paul
Mario_1234 both tied for first (...tournament was cut short by for some reason)
Mo 3rd

Paul: You guys are awesome. Got "573375" that's for sure. Sorry the payout stuff was kind of kooky. Hope it doesn't prevent you guys from coming down anytime in the future, that would suck. Loved the hizzangin'.

Crash: As was said before, you rock, 573375 and all that. I saw you teaching some of your Samus manuvers, it's always good to give out the knowledge. Hizzangin' with you guys rocks house. If you guys get a tournament going up in Wisconsin, I'll do my best to attend. You guys have already been more than awesome attending all of ours. You get no food.

Tacoom! Sorry about the abrupt tournament end, I wanted to talk to you guys some more. Playing against me with someone other than Yoshi threw me off. Took me to town. I'll try to make the Omaha tournament, I have to check my schedule first. Hopefully I can make it, and try to redeem myself in the face of Omaha dudes.

Aaron #3: I'm Aaron #1! Your Ganondorf is good, but if you need another character, you better practice up next time we meet!

Omaha people: Thanks for coming out! It was great meeting all of you. I hope to see you at other tournaments!

I felt like I did really well, especially with this being only my second tourney. The first one really had a lot of noobs too. Taking third with my Marth ain't too bad at all.

Plus, Team Desert Tank managed to place on teams despite basically zero practice with team attack on before the tourney.

Top 3 teams finishers were:

1. Team 573375
2. Team Mario People
3. Team Desert Tank

Paul, your Doc was awesome dude, but I really wish we could have had our third game on a more Marth-friendly stage :-P

EarthBowser it was cool meeting ya man and you should definitely do your best to make the next Omaha tourney, along with the rest of you Iowa folk. Sorry I had to paste your Luigi/Sheik bro ;)

And thanks TS for hosting it, twas good stuff. Hopefully it'll be bigger and better next time.

EB, let's get ready for Michigan. Have you talked to Aaron #2 about a ride? Or else I can talk to him, see when he's ready, talk to you, ect. I might just be able to give him a ride, though. I have a bassoon lesson at 2:30, so how about you just come to River Falls :). We won't make you do any extra driving on the way here.

I'll let you know when I hope to have you here by. I would like us to be able to practice a bit. I'm hoping me and #2 will have some time to get him ready for a few matches he'll be doing, but I have faith in him, so no worries :).
