Jimbo, did I get to play you when I visited Murray with Cody Short/Adams?

 

[DrakeRowan]

From the looks of it there seems to be a decent number of smashers in/around louisville. Too bad nothing is ever held here.. =/

 

[CR4SH]

taking all comers

Hey I'm colligan from louisville kentucky.

I main luigi, i like the pokemon trainer and fox. Since I dont have a wii of my own I tend to play at w00tz, a lan center on lyndon. I'm there all the time, so if you want a match, show up and throw down.

yo.

 

[DrakeRowan]

Lyndon is like the rich peoples area compared to west Louisville.

 

[SD14]

[wangston]

So Louisville smashers there is a tourney at w00tz the gaming cafe in Louisville next Sunday June 8th. http://w00tzgames.com/index.php?page=brawltournament_june_2008 I've never been to w00tz but I do know they have held tourneys in the past I always have a schedule conflict and never make it but it seems like they aways of a good turn out from what I hear.

 

[DrakeRowan]

Im amazed. There's a good chance Ill come. Hope they'll turn off items.

 

[Gorgapor]

I'll be there. Wangston has been posting on the w00tz forums trying to get the rules to something sane, and i'll try to help him. Mario (DraikRoan), you should post on the w00tz forums and help us change the crap rules too.

 

[Dexidus]

I am in Lexington, as well, looking for local tournaments are even just some friendly competition. AIM is Dexidus2006. Anyone know of any tourneys in the area?

I agree with you that the rules are crap, but do you really think we can get it changed? I mean, we're not the ones organizing it.

It's sad to say that after 1.5 years of almost no local smash tourney's that the newest one will be an all items, random stage FFA.

 

[wangston]

Well I'm going to try to convince them, if I don't succeed thats okay. If we could find some venue that would hold smash tourneys that would be great. I think if we can get w00tz to change there rules and make it more competitive we could get a nice turn out they might have a monthly tournament. I have 4 friends that say the will go if I can get some of the stages banned and a few items turned off(if they aren't willing to have them all off) I always play smash with my friends at my place every other week, we usually have about 8 people in attendants.

 

[hydr01987]

wangston, if you can get them to change the rules to the tourney me and one or two of my friends from bowling green will come up to Louisville for the tourney. It sounds like a lot of fun

Northern KY weekly tournaments.

Good rules(to be edited into the thread soon, they just got a recent overhaul).
Good players
Lots of fun.

Held on the levee for those interested. Wednesdays 4:00-10:00, though the one tomorrow will be 5:30-10:00

 

[wangston]

I will be at the tourney in w00tz. It's not as far as I thought it was going to be, it's right off of westport road. I'm also taking my friend and we are planning on sweeping the tourney. Everyone on the w00tz boards doesn't seem that good because they want all stages and items, must of the time people like that are mediocre at best. So we will see how it turns out.

 

[Gorgapor]

Good tournament. So wangston, which guy was your friend? Was he the one playing kirby and sonic?

 

[wangston]

Yeah that is Luke. He said he almost one with Sonic but the time limit ended. The 5 min. time limit was really dumb. So was the 5 stock match. I don't have the endurance for a 5 stock match. I gave up after you canceled the spike and then I took your 3rd stock shortly there after. I was like, screw this it's way to long. Which is why I picked jiggs the next match. I really didn't care I just wanted to go home and go sleep. I graduated on Saturday and had project graduation so I was going on 2 hours of sleep and I couldn't function any longer. If I was going to put up I fight I would have pulled at my alt but I knew I got second and I just wanted to leave. I was so tiered during the semis and the finals I really didn't even try. The guy in the semis almost won the second game but then I just stalled the clock and beat him in sudden death. Looking back I feel dumb for not trying but I was just way too tiered to care at the time. I could have assaulted you with jiggs rising pound but that would have taken too much effort because when I did try to do rising pound I just sang a song I had no control anymore.. When I got home I went to sleep form 7:00 untill 9:00 this morning.

 

[wangston]

NOOOO!!!!!!!!!! I placed second again, but this time at the tournament at Something2Do. It was double elimination and I won every match so the guy had to beat me twice in the finals, and sure enough he did. He used Lucario and I used Falco. I had never played a Lucario before so I was lost and confused. Also they have the rules set to stay as one character the whole time or else I would have picked some on that can handle Lucario. Also I'm going to add the Something2Do tournament to this regions list, it is biweekly in Louisville KY. They have done 5 of them, today was the first one of theres I attended.

 

[wangston]

I know there is way more people that play smash in KY especially in the Louisville area. Something2do has a biweekly http://smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=176121 The last attendance was 14 I'm sure there are way more smashers then that in Louisville. At the w00tz tourney a week before that there were 35. So I'm trying to get the word out.

 

[Overswarm]

Anyone here live near Northern Kentucky University? I go back in August and will need more people to play.

 

[Strate]

I live in Louisville around Churchill downs, just graduated from UK though so I'll be in Lex most of the summer. I'd come back for a tourney though.

 

[Dexidus]

Yea, I'm in Lexington, as well. I would still consider coming to Louisville for a decent sized tourney, though. Dink's Cafe in Turfland Mall in Lexington has resumed having weekly tournaments on Sundays, too. This past Sunday the turn out was really small, but it was Father's Day, so that could have a lot to do with it. Anyone in the Lexington area should come out though.

They started those again? Like, every Sunday?

Give specifics, man.

They said that they would be happening every Sunday for the rest of the summer from this point forward. A 2v2 tournament first, followed by 1v1. It is a 5 dollar fee for each tournament, but yes, in short.... they started them again. They might have more info on the website, but sometimes they slack.

[Bolshoi]

the DiNKS tourny wasn't bad. Suckily, I won't be able to attend the next one. I end up working a lot of sundays

 

[Gorgapor]

So, I've recently discovered allisbrawl.com, and I really like the online ladder there. I've made a thread for louisville and the surrounding cities there, http://www.allisbrawl.com/forum/topic.aspx?id=16866

On this thread I'll make sure that any tournaments nearby are announced, and organize smashfests and stuff. Since this thread is getting a little dead, I'm mainly gonna be posting over there from now on.

 

[Jiano]

Word up Kentucky.

 

[wangston]

Yo Jiano do you think you can make to the Something2do tourney on the 28th?

 

[Gorgapor]

i thought you quit, jiano

 

[Overswarm]

i thought you quit, jiano

feed him.

make him grow stronger.

Soon we will have him as part of the conclave once more.

 

[smash64]

i would go to this but its to far i live in northern KY :/

 

[Jiano]

i thought you quit, jiano

I did

 

[DrakeRowan]

Oh hey, its Jiano. Now all we need is My*****NamedDante and Powda and it will be COMPLETE

 

[Gorgapor]

i think dante is in california or something, but i'll invite powda

 

[wangston]

Jiano for some one who quite your still really good. I don't see how you could have caught on to Brawl that fast. Two weeks and to not have played it sense. It took me a month to get used to brawl. I guess Snake really is that good. Your'e just a god walking among mortals.

 

[Jiano]

No, when you've been playing a game as complicated as Melee, and you switch to Brawl, it takes almost no time to figure out. No offense to the Brawl supporters but the game is pretty dull.

Come to a MWC and get 17th, kthxbai

I'm not going to travel outside of my city to play a game that isn't very fun, kthxbai.

[Jiano]

johns 10char

Are you calling me a liar!?!

 

[wangston]

It is less complicated no doubt about it but the mechanics of the game are so much different, thats why it took me time to adjust. Jiano are you just good with snake or can you use other characters that well?
