[Jan 3, 2015] Cincinnati Smash Revival Biweekly (Mason, Ohio)

[Russy]

Salt are you not going to go to the kentucky tourny then?

You may not know this, but this thread is set to repeat every other week to automatically give people the date for the CSR, this also carries over all the comments that were on the previous thread. So if I had to guess, he's still going to Frankfort

 

[Doctor X]

He is. That was an old post from one of the earlier biweeklies.

That being said I believe Fizzle and Pech are coming tomorrow. It's up to you guys to defend Cincy. Don't let us down.

 

[Doctor X]

Hey PiBs you should bump the thread when you update it brah.

To let everyone know ahead of time, I will not be at this one. I made plans back when I thought the 14th would be one of CSR's off weeks and would prefer not to go back on them.

Sucks I've missed so many of these in a row. I'll be prioritizing them from this point forward, of course.

 

[SoulPech]

I won't be going to this as well. I'm still taking a minor break since i was in 3 months worth of tourneys back to bakc to back.

I also want to try the new smash 4 game this weekend.

 

[sneakytako]

Ughhhhh 50 50 atm.

 

[Overswarm]

MARIO MARATHON TAKO, MARIO MARATHON

 

[sneakytako]

Like Smash > Mario.

Except after C.

 

[KassandraNova]

I would go to this, buuuuut I am participating in the Mario Marathon so sorry. :/

 

[PiBs]

Results are up for 6.14 tourny! Great to see everyone, happy to see some new faces. Great tournament and had a good time.

Drephen can you settle a argument Kel and I are having


if Smash 4 came out and we offered you beer, would you play Smash 4 at my house (Cincinnati area)


as a totally separate argument

if Smash 4 came out and we offered frenzie fool beer if he got you to come down with him, could he convince you to do so


I'm just curious

Would be awesome to see you there, we should have good turnout with no other large regional tournaments the weekend of.

 

[SoulPech]

itd have to be a lot of beers cause the game doesnt look so good. Now when Project M 2 comes out, ill be down to play anytime.
Frenziefool would probably come down for a wine cooler

Fair enough. I think this is a tie between me and Kel. Possibly leaning towards kel depending on what you mean by "a lot of beers".

 

[Pr0fessor Flash]

I don't know if I can come maybe I can go maybe not?

 

[NinthWonder]

This might become my first tournie. Lucky me it's only a 30 minute drive away.

Hope to see you, I want to play against some Doctor Mario, we don't have any local doc mains.

 

[NinthWonder]

Well don't expect anything spectacular. I'm quite sure I'm far away from being a threat currently.

 

[PiBs]

I'm gonna change the stagelist for the next pm tournament. What do you guys think?

 

[Village Mascot]

I'm gonna change the stagelist for the next pm tournament. What do you guys think?

I like the idea, stage list is kinda stale and lazy (Apex list is bad and should feel bad).

I was thinking about attempting to learn how to make my own custom background and other stuff for PM specifically for CSR. I gotta look at it sometime this week and hopefully have something for this weekend. I'm not super artistic, but it should be fun.

Expect dickbutt everywhere.

For the love of all that is good and holy, balance the stage list so you don't have 7 of one type of stage and 3 of another, and then allow three bans so one type can be removed completely.

Ask yourself "If a player doesn't want to play on ANY (type of stage), should be able to ban ALL of those kinds of stages?"

If the answer is yes, make sure # of bans = number of stages with the most in its type.

This will shrink your stagelist considerably, unfortunately, due to the large number of battle-field clones that have subtle differences as opposed to stages like Wario Ware and GHZ.


Alternatively, if the answer is no, make sure # of bans != number of stages with the least in its type. So if you have 3 "small" stages or 3 "big" stages, have 2 or less bans so that way there's always at least one small stage. If you are planning on having 3 out of 5, make sure there are minimum 2 of each type.


Personally I would just leave in as many stages as possible and say "one ban". It helps with balance by allowing every character to showcase their strengths that aren't "I'm good on flat/plat stages".

 

[Kel]

Balance the stage list by removing the Brawl hack Kappa

 

[Ross Hadden]

This might become my first tournie. Lucky me it's only a 30 minute drive away.

Same here, I'm going to make this my first tourny. So glad to discover a P:M scene 20 minutes away!

Granted I'm terrible, but I'm still looking forward to losing, watching, and learning.

 

[PiBs]

Updated the stage list for PM. May change it again, but this will definitely be the stage list for Saturday.

 

[Rizner]

I like the stage list change. I'd probably add one more small stage for the option, but as it is it's so much better than apex. Thanks.

Moving this weekend, so unsure if I'll make it. Depends when I can get help from those with trucks.

 

[Drephen]

alright, most definitely coming to this. How late do these things usually go?

 

[MrRavine]

Hey guys, long time lurker, first time poster. I'm working at the Target on Tylersville until 2pm Saturday, meaning I'll only be 5 minutes away. Will it be possible to still enter myself in the Melee Singles, or at least PM singles? I can pay in advance if that's a concern.

 

[Zelda_Fan_]

Ya Boy's coming to this.

 

[PiBs]

They usually go until about 9, if everything goes as planned it should finish at 8. The venue is open until very late though ~2

You should be on time for both singles event. We always start out with the doubles event so you should be fine. No need to pay in advance.

 

[luketavius]

I think I'll be coming to this. Do I just sign up when I get there saturday? Excited for this, it'll be my second tournament! Trying to get more involved in the Dayton/Cincy scenes

Yep you sign up at the tournament. Get there at 12:30 to have time to sign up and get in friendlies before the tournament.

 

[Overswarm]

Do you typically do PM doubles randomly, or is it one of those scheduled things that is only sometimes scheduled?

 

[Overswarm]

This was enjoyable, full shoutouts later.

Fun tournament. Did better than I expected in Melee, worse than expected in PM. Steak and Shake was good and I wish I had one near me.

To the people who were asking me about ordering shirts:

Examples:

They are currently $10 + shipping/handling if I'm not hand delivering and it isn't a super complicated shirt. Send me a PM or an e-mail at evandowning@gmail.com and I can walk you through the available options, but I can make just about anything and put it on a t-shirt.

Ditto with bead art, except prices vary widely:

Fixed it for you.

I switch between melee and pm doubles every month or so. It is scheduled and will say on the main info section which one will be ran.

 

[NinthWonder]

Sorry I couldn't make it, but the next one should work out for me. This is also good since my friend expressed interest in joining me.
