-Stalling is banned. (Stalling is defined as any action that deliberately avoids all conflict as to make the game unplayable. Running from an opponent to get to a better position is not considered stalling, but using chain grabs infinitely against a wall (excessively beyond around 300%) or using Sonic's Neutral B repeatedly underneath the stage is.)

Still Happening. These threads are never, ever active for me lol. But we have like 40-60 people show up so I don't complain. :bee:
Good deal! I'll have to see if I can make it to this... I have to drive 13 hours soon and this tourney would be a perfect midway stopping point.

I personally can't house anyone, but I'll ask around and see if that's possible. But it's only a 3 hour drive dude. I woke up at 4 AM to get to your tourney loll. No excuses ;)


Anyone passing through Nashville to this? Looking for rides if possible ^_^.

I don't know if anyone is passing through nashville. I don't know if we garner that much attention.

Yeah, I've played spaceballs, he's nuts. :p

What would the housing be like? That would be awesome but I admit I'm a little hesitant about it since I don't know anybody... but then again smashers are pretty awesome when it comes to housing.

Sadly I literally won't know if I can make it to this or not til like Thurs evening but I'll try to let ya know. And thanks for being so welcoming!

ok, I am coming to this thing! What are the housing options? And would they be for Friday or Sat night? I'll probably get to memphis at about 10 pm Friday night.

I'm going ahead and getting a hotel room in case I don't hear back or there aren't any other options.
