[Apocalypse™]

Apoc can have my points. He's better.

Lies!!1

I think everyone knows what jake is after

You'll be missed, jake.

ZOMG...ssshh.... you'll get yours soon enough.

I will MM anyone in the 11th through 15th ranking. The lower the ranking the more I am willing to throw down.

Lol.. it's not like the lower part is noob or anything (maybe just 12th but in my eyes he's pro)

jake wants off the list? done! ill bump the ones below up one and add........kage? if mog still played.....i would add him......

Hey hey hey, that wasn't part of our agreement. Jk.


Allan, please let me know if you're gonna change the date to the 17-18th like Dawn requested because I'm planning on requesting the 10th off.. sooo... let me know. Thanks.

 

[NEON666]

yo TGM whats up with mr.3000 i really want to play him real bad i want to see what hes made of i have confidence in myself i know i can beat him

 

[SideEffect]

I really think Cesar(WTF!) should be top 15 easy.

hahahha u flamed him so bad..so chill out for a while

 

[BeArR]

I agree ronnie, but there is the fact of the matter that he doesn't attend as many tournies as everyone else on the list. Which you shouldn't be excused from that and be allowed on the list. Then what happens when he doesnt show at tournies? People cant play him, slowing down the process of gaining points.

hell yeahz son, I would say top 10 or a little higher , well bear I agree with what you're saying but I can't go most of the times because the tourneys happen at a day and time when I can't go early and enter since I work on saturdays and leave work around 2, seems my only option left would have to be to money match people XD let's play next week or something

 

[BeArR]

Yeah, I most definitely think you should get top 15 easily, possibly top 10. I understand the working situation as well. I would rather put you on there instead of kage. No offense meant to anyone, but why is 3000 on the list? He doesn't go to many tournaments much anymore. Also, defy and riot dont really attend either. Are there other people that are more active in these tournies? This is meant non-offensively and this is just because people that don't show make it so people can't really advance. I mean its still a possibility that they can, it is just a lot less likely.

NEON HAVE YOU SEEN THE NEW Character

 

[NEON666]

NEON HAVE YOU SEEN THE NEW Character

yeah the king dede thing pm me so you wont get a infraction

 

[SideEffect]

Ray makes a great point, take those non-actives off. =X

 

[RT]

How far does back does this thing go? Wouldn't it be more reasonable to start with say the beginning of this year?

The list has been out for what like two days and people are already complaining?

Seriously, we don't need a list to start more arguments. We already know who the top players are in Houston. Everyone has a general idea where everybody else is...we don't need a list to say otherwise. You can see why the mods don't allow any sort of Power Rankings below state level because this is what happens.

 

[BeArR]

I honestly think this can make a huge change in the community and that we can get more attendance and more and more peoples skill will increase because they want to be known as a top player. I admit Houston as a whole has improved but I think that this idea will get even more improvement out of the community. It gives people a reason to play in tournament even though they know they might not win. It gives more reason for people to show up and take their shot at getting better.

I don't think people are complaining or anything, I know I am not at least. I am just suggesting new things to keep the list up to date and people should get rewarded for coming to the tournament and entering. Like 1 point to everyone that shows up and enters, added along with the other points from TGM's method. All in all the list is a great idea, its just that there are more active people in the community that should be on the list instead of the inactive players. It's only fair especially if those inactive players don't show, then certain people wont get their shot at taking a point up from someone. Like, 3000, defy, riot, I normally don't see them very often at tournaments, but I do see them here and there.

Oh yeah, keep the date 10th - 11th. That's the only way I will be able to go to this since the week after this is the big SA tournament.

 

[RT]

I hate being contradicted. <_<

I feel sad...

And yeah, do keep the date for the tourney/fest/dawn next weekend. I'll try to stay the night, but we'll see.

Holy crap, Black Friday is in about a month. Start saving money...

The method is flawed for people who work on those days like Fridays and Saturdays. Me and Cesar are all I know, but I'm sure there are more. I'm off on Monday-Wednesday. Also you just requested the date to remain conveniant for you. How would you feel if the tournaments were all on a day and time you weren't available?

The incentive for being at tournaments and punishment for not attending are skewed to those who I'm sure have all that free time, play smash as a profession (if this were cali that might be possible, but I'm sure even Ronnie couldn't afford the cheapest of places and live on his tourney money), or be incentive for me to just miss my work which is my primary means of income (and I should not be punished for working for christs sakes).

So I was thinking there are two ways to do this:
1. DEDUCT a certain amount of points over time for each succeeded tournament, but this would be fine, because if you place more than say 11th place you would earn 3+ points depending on what place.

2. Hold more tournaments that accomodate everyone. A weekday tournament followed by a weekend would be real nice and solve this problem quickly.

 

[thecarnitarian]

Just got finished playing Rockettrainer, I already feel like I'm getting better at smash brothers. I definitely have to go to the Nov. 10 tournament now.

 

[dawn001]

falco's cool. i hav a little less experience against falcos, but i need that

well since you need experience i will help you with my falco skills no problem

 

[Colombian Falcon]

i will give you falcon practice:flame:

 

[Moggie]

When is the next tournament ??? I don't want to flip through 10 pages to ask, sorry

Oh, will probably get a Wii in November, it's muh burfday on the 17th :D

Also, if the tourny is around then, I can request off now.

 

[Kamikaze Kevin]

thanks dawn, lookin forward to it.

and roy, falcon practice is pretty much all i get around my house, but i'd still be happy to play you. i'll beat you eventually, i came pretty close last time

 

[Sethlon]

When is the next tournament ??? I don't want to flip through 10 pages to ask, sorry

Lol, its in the title

Yeah, you're not bad at all. You do know most of the advanced techniques, just keep practicing! You'll get better.

And holy crap, it's a Ganondorf player! How many is that now?

Hooray for Sugar Land...I guess.

Super Mario Galaxy is fun to play...definitely worth getting along with Brawl.

 

[dawn001]

well i found out that i can go so il be there on the 10th
man there is to many ganon players what is going on????
and falcons too??????

 

[Lab Rat™]

there are many people that play captain falcon...

there are only a few falcon players...

edit: roy, bring that captain falcon to my house next weekend! along with my controller and gamecube lolz

 

[dawn001]

hmmm how many fox player is there in houston ???

 

[NovA™]

there are a little bit of everything but WHAT ABOUT THEM FALCO'S?

 

[BeArR]

We don't have solid peaches. We actually have a few samus players now, which I never thought would happen. There's actually not a ton of fox players, it is kind of funny.

Also Omni, I agree that tourneys should be held on more dates besides sat and sun, but people have school. No one would be able to get there early at all, I mean, the tournament would start around 5 most likely. I know magnolia wouldn't be able to get there until around that time or even later, then you must also add in traffic. It's just sat and sun are the most convenient days for the majority smashers. I know it is unfair but that's just how it works. Even if they held tourneys during the weekdays, I doubt a whole lot of people would attend. Someone can attempt holding a tourney on Friday, but even then, that is pushing it. That's all I can really say about weekday play. Although if someone wants to get a tourney together during the weekday, then push the start time to like, 5 pm and only have singles and a lot of TV's and very organized tournament, then yeah, it is definitely possible. But then again, it's all up to peoples schedules.

 

[XZalla]

... And holy crap, it's a Ganondorf player! How many is that now?

... man there is to many ganon players what is going on????

So I've been away.. Nova filled me with some info that's already happened, like new players who are better. I'm interested. So the only thing I will say is... who can play me tomorrow?

New ganon players?!

[Kamikaze Kevin]

nice matches, tho green greens seemed like an odd counterpick. i would've gone with either yoshi story (for short sides and easy f-smash kills) or n64 kongo jungle (for high ceiling and open enough for chain grab)

 

[OhMyGodItzMouf]

We don't have solid peaches.

...

...

...

 

[TGM]

Solid peach MAINS? we have mouf. no other. samus mains? me and duck.

also, i know some of you do not agree on the current ranking. i respect that and will change it. but u must remember, i made this list off of watching,playing and seeing you guys show up.

lots and lots of people (excluding the top 6) have issues with showing up to tournies...therefor its hard to put yall on the list correctly, so i try the best i can. if you show up more,impress and beat people. you will have a solid spot on the list.


i made the current list based on current results/attendance. if you disagree whith it, that is fine. but post a FAIR WAY to FIX it. do not be a democrat(complain but not have a plan to fix the problem you are complaing about).


Also, tournaments will not and should not be on week days. 90% of all smashers can play on weekends. if you cant make it on weekends, you didnt request off early enough OR you arnt hard core enough to get it to work out. week day tournies are dumb/never happen.


to RT, yes we know who the top 5 or 6 are in houston. but what about the others. they should be known too. RT you are soon to be o the list, i have seen you improve SOOOOO much.

 

[dawn001]

mouf is not the only peach player we have jake and void that play with peach and falco well hmm mouf ,nova,me .....an as for the tournament well i hope i could make it .,...
