@alejandro You should see some of the games between Kyle vs Phil or Kyle vs me They are very close when we are playing our best.
Dude, I'm so glad we are all stepping our game up. It felt like just a few days ago that I remember getting 3 stocked by Kyle (well I only get 2 stocked now) but just think we could all reach Tyson or even Dakota's level. Keep playing brawl even if it's an hour a week, we can all do this!

Btw, this could be lubbock/amarillo tomorrow..
Jk, I wish..

I pulled girlfriend aggro and had to leave early. What are you saying Alejandro? Think phil or karma couldn't beat me? That's not a lot of faith for them!
Alright, I admit I didn't give them a lot of credit, but my immediate response to seeing the results was, "WTF, where's Kyle?" We all should expect an upset very soon though b/c Phil and Kevin are right on your heels.

So, who would be down for a snow fight tomorrow in the off chance that classes are canceled?

This is one of the three reviewers left on the snake critique board:

(after I reviewed his snake, and he didn't listen to a word I said...)

"Unique doesn't mean anything to me. I only care about being flashy. It's the only reason I play Snake. "

What's wrong with crowd-pleasers? Jk, he obviously is coming from a very narrow point of view. Players cannot expect to improve if all they care about is looking awesome. If that's their thing, then critiquing is not their department.

Wish this winter weather went away already, if Tech won't cancel class the entire day for this, then I'd rather it not be like this. Either way wind chill sucks! :mad:

Dakpo, no double posting! We're lucky mods don't check this regularly, if they even do.

Dakpo, since you(ZSS) grapple to grab I'm thinking it's not very useful and avoidable.

This looks pretty usefull and possibly not too difficult depending on what attack your getting hit by. Mabey this will make metaknights downsmashes punishable now?

All you need to learn is edge canceled egg toss and the rest is hard reads. ;)
AHA. So thats how you play yoshi.
*Switches mains.

That reminds me. When we came to lubbock after every match i tried to ask everyone for advice on what i could do better.

When I asked Andre Everytime he said "Main Mario" and thats all lol.
Good advice!!

Yeah, pretty much all low tiers take a while to learn so you have to be committed and not just pick them up for a bit. It took Andre this long to be good with Mario and I could say the same.

*revives from the dead* Haha no, i was not dead, however first and foremost i apologize 10fold for not being able to come on Sunday. I had some unexpected family come in that morning as well. My phone had died and i was without a charger for a few days, hence why i never responded to any of your guys messages.

I am really sorry i missed it, especially since teh Amarillo guys made the effort to come down and get some games in and hang out.

Again, sorry about the lack of communication. I definitely will never let that happen again. <3 806

LOL, I'm in Austin right now dude, I meant just this friday.
And I should warn you I only play Melee, Brawl plus and soon Project M.

Other thing is I wanna check out Tech's Linguistics department since I'm applying for grad school there, so I'd need to work that into my schedule, also wanted to sit for a couple classes.

mario will be fun. He is pretty balanced. Yeah pretty much all the low/mid tier characters have big learning curves. But I think its mostly a basic understanding of the game that takes the most time.

LOL Dakota! <3 Robhin mahfood thats funny. I'm way to much of a tourney *** now to main mario. But for Low tiers MARIO is ****!! I've actually been practicing alot of metaknight and mario Wifi has been very helpful for this.

Normal Brawl and Brawl - (with a little project M) are the only ones worth playing. The rest is trash lol

We played Duelist Parallel today, people seemed to like Texas Duelist more. Now I don't even know whether to just have singles and doubles or to even host a side event for DMT? :(

Anyone who thinks Melee is trash just sucks at it. Melee is art.
:p

Do you live on campus? I'd like to stop by and play some Melee or Project M this friday. I'll need to keep myself occupied till 5, and I don't just wanna sit in S4.
Course, before I think about all that I have to make sure my car is up for the trip... haha

Whoops, didnt mean to say melee was trash. I meant brawl + and balanced brawl is trash
OK good.
I've never played balanced brawl, but the only problem with B+ was that they constantly had to update it. However, it was still a step up from vBrawl (you can actually combo), but Project M will easily outclass it.
The hackers have fixed a lot of simple things that make you think "really Sakurai???".
