[C~Dog]

Sunday is going to be Melee and Brawl teams.

Also, there will be an All Stars Crew Battle on Saturday, or if time doesn't allow, Sunday.

[Vermy]

Sunday I'll be bringing my 360 set up with SSFIV and 2 Hori arcade sticks. Tak and Tibs rejoice.

 

[Nicks]

hey guys,
sorry if this has already been answered but how is this 2 day thing going to work?
is brawl on one day and melee on the other? and if so which day is brawl?
thanks

 

[C~Dog]

Day 1 [Saturday 5th] - Melee crews, then Brawl crews.
Day 2 [Sunday 6th] - Melee and Brawl doubles run simultaneously.

All Star Crews will be run on Saturday if time allows, otherwise will be run Sunday.

 

[Dekar289]

by all star crews you mean vic vs nsw brawl crew battle right?

 

[Jei Jei]

No he means you and me against everyone else. And we only have a stock each to make it fair.



....I think your ego is rubbing off on me.

 

[S.D]

Is anyone from NSW even going?

 

[TakFR]

Sunday I'll be bringing my 360 set up with SSFIV and 2 Hori arcade sticks. Tak and Tibs rejoice.

[Dekar289]

@s.d. the brawltards are
ya know, usual nsw contingent

 

[C~Dog]

Dekar: its Brawl all stars crew, considering little (or no) melee OOS players are attending.

 

[Dekar289]

yes, i know, just clarifying that it's brawl only and vic vs nsw

 

[C~Dog]

Yeah pretty much, although any other OOSers can be on NSWs team.

 

[Vermy]

For the sunday, saturday or both? <3

Both. Dudleyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

Conor played it the other week when he came round, he likes Bison. Teach him stuffs.

 

[tibs7]

[Vermy]

Hell yeaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

[TakFR]

Will do if possible =)

 

[Vermy]

On the Sunday, (considering the other CW guys will not be attending) I imagine there might be a few spare TVs. Should be OK to use one for your ps3 setup, Tibs. =)

 

[tibs7]

Sf on crt's? Me no like .
So yeah Tak take it

 

[Sieg]

Feel that standard definition lol.

 

[Siyro]

Hey, sorry to be a pain and acting a bit nooby here. But how is the two day event running, cause Edge and I are wanting to attend.

 

[TakFR]

I play on standard definition =/

The only problem with taking my TV is that someone is able to drive me there and home for both of the days =(

 

[Attila_]

[C~Dog]

NSW + Nova + maybe ACT if they are cool kids like i hear.

 

[Attila_]

For anyone that is asking questions about how Day 1 and 2 aew working out, here's the completely updated first post of the DC2 thread! It should answer all questions about the tournament.

Were you veteran enough to remember Don't Come in Sydney 2008? It was nice, since it was the world's first tournament to exclude singles. I don't like singles very much. It worked out pretty well - lots of people turned up to fight for their friends instead for themselves. This made a social atmosphere of a different kind and that's something I'd like to bring to Melbourne, which could always do with some variance. Of course, if you don't like it, don't come.

First things first.
This isn't a major tournament. This isn't even a standard tournament. This is a tournament designed to experiment with the usual tournament formula and find new ways to engage a competitive Smash audience.

It's a crew battle tournament with a twist!​

If you're new to the tournament scene here is a couple of frequent Q&A's:
"Is this for pros only?" - The tournaments are open for everybody. The skill range is diverse, so don't be discouraged from attending. Not everyone that comes to the tournaments are competitive. Most are friendly and welcoming of new people. A lot of us are also a fair lot more outgoing than your average gamer. We are a community-based legion of Smash Brothers.
"What is the average age of a Smasher?" - Smashers are your typical gamer age. Those that come to the tournaments are between 14 and 25 years old. Bring a friend. Or two.
"Who can I call if I need help?" - CAO! On 0466352145.

[Surgi]

Sunday, what happens from 1pm-4pm? Melee teams?

 

[Dekar289]

are there 2 brawl teams tournaments, woww!

 

[C~Dog]

We only have the venue from 4? Why the **** would we do teams twice?

 

[tedeth]

Oh god. Our melee crew is going to be soooo good....

I CHOOSE YOU, ZXV!!!

 

[Redact]

cao talk to me (if you want to) about who should be seeded or not, id be keen to figure it out within the next week or two, and release a list before the event starts, so people can do some pre-planning/praccing (you gotta work on your marth l0llllll)

 

[CAOTIC]

We only have the venue from 4? Why the **** would we do teams twice?

By the way, the second day is only going ahead once I get the confirmation with you that it's going ahead. Also, need to know the cost, considering hours are reduced.

 

[Shaya]

Oh **** CAO, I wish you would have made brawl crews start at 5pm.
I couldn't really attend until after 3pm.

 

[Dekar289]

2bad, brawl crews need to start first or else we won't finish

 

[C~Dog]

Okay Splice said he wasn't coming to this (due to working and exams), and said that since I don't have a crew, I could take his spot on the Dekar/Gary/Toshi crew. How do you guys feel about that?

 

[Splice]

Yeah 'coz Afro isn't in a state of being able to make it either 'coz he's got Exams too. No work, but like, he goes to Melbourne Uni so gotta think 'bout that y'know?

So I think Toshi should replace me, and Condog should replace Afropony.
Or Condog can replace me, and Toshiba can replace Afropony.
It really depends on what you want, I suppose.

Yeah.

 

[Toshi]

Wait wha-?

I thought I was in Vermy's crew for Brawl. I don't ever remember Splice asking me to be in his crew.

Lies. All LIES!

 

[Splice]

You werent on MSN and 'sif im gonna email you.

SO have fun working with Conor he's really happy to crew with you Toshi and is quite hyped up about the oppurtunity. Make it work yeah?

 

[earla]
