the ticket was a year ago and you're just -now- going to traffic school?

i had traffic school many moons ago and completely forgot the circumstances, but.. this seems like a long gap.

Don't worry about it Dude, Wes and Mundungu both have one.

YoshQ, sorry, but I'm only here for 2 days and I don't get to spend time with my family very much, so I won't be able to play.

Hi there, I've been playing 2d fighters (street fighter / marvel / etc...) for awhile with Mundungu and I've decided to play melee. I'm just starting so I have to work on basic stuff but I'm really good at other 2d fighters so I imagine after some work I'll be good at smash. I'll post more when I'm not trash at melee, if anyone has any advice I'm open to any you care to offer.

This Saturday doesn't work for me :(
I'm going to a Milwaukee tourney for Marvel vs Capcom 3 and Arcana Heart 3. That's fine though, I need to practice all the basic advanced techniques, I've only ever played smash very casually so I don't know how to do anything like Wavedashing, L-canceling or anything like that yet.

I managed to get a capture device recently. The video quality is a couple of shades less than perfect, but it is still pretty good. I'm lacking a y-splitter for audio, so not sure how great it will turn out. But we can definitely record if Matt cannot get his stuff working again. Might even be able to get you your commentary Sam. Hell, maybe even try streaming for kicks, but it would be really laggy.

Look forward to playing everyone in a couple of months.

bowsers dthrow does no damage to puff and G&W. Their light weight makes the throw faster so it skips the hitbox frame. 2 bowsers can dthrow back and forth and puffs % will never change so the knockback is fixed.
puff for negligible tier in teams.

yeah but they would squish jigglypuff too much and she would eventually run out of air or pop

We need to get a smashfest this summer with everyone who's still in Madison. I wish I could do it, but I don't have a Smash TV. And the one Wes has is over 100 pounds.

I can smash sometime this week. I might as well just have people over here since we have a bunch of TVs for it already. I know we can get at least 4 people together, since we have so many people now.

Does Tuesday / Wednesday work for you Sam / Alex?

Wednesday is a decent day for me. Tuesday and Thursday are occupied 6-10, and Saturday I'm busy 4-8. My house could work, but currently I only have room for one setup. Also, I live in Middleton off of Century, near the Family Video. Not sure where you are all at, that might be too far (its about 15-20 minutes to the union from my house.)
