You're in the Southeast MI area. HIV+ regularly hosts Smashfests in West Bloomfield. Talk to him.
*Bloomfield

They are up to 30 mins apart depending from where you're driving from/to.

Note: There are 3 "Bloomfields" in SE Michigan, at least that I'm aware of.

Bloomfield
Bloomfield Hills (smaller subset within Bloomfield)
West Bloomfield (WEST of Bloomfield :surprised:)

Sorry for the condescending post, but I guess you can say it aggravates me when people mix these up. (At least Bloomfield and West Bloomfield, you can get away with Bloomfield vs Bloomfield Hills.)

I'm a new player trying to get into the scene. Are there any regular smashfest that go down in Detroit, Dearborn or Redford that I could come to to get better?
I live in St. Clair Shores, which is like a 20 minute drive from the Detroit area.
You're free to drop by some time if you want to play some.

Aaron, I've looked at that venue already. My main issue with it is the inconvenient parking + TV dropoff options. The room is on the 4th floor of that building and the parking garage below it is kinda tricky to navigate through. It's still a possibility if I can't get a hotel venue to work though.

if youre trying to do a saturday and sunday tourney then the parking garage underneath it is perfect. Have people park there when they get to the tourney. On sundays the barrier at the entrance/exits is up so anyone can just leave without paying for parking

Yeah I totally forgot about this thread haha. I noticed some of the character image links have become broken since the last time I looked, so I replaced them. Anyone want to get together and vote for a new PR? This thing is so outdated, and I actually feel some motivation to update it.

I want on. It's pretty enjoyable and I have valid reasons for my beliefs and will change then when presented valid points.

Rob's House 4 shouldn't be counted, it was more of a glorified smashfest with money.

Notable things that happened at Rob's House 4:
-y'all need to step it up in teams because kd and juggleguy won, kd is free as **** and that team is also really free lol
-kd broke another controller playing Marth again
-Roki did indeed participate in the crew battle and took 0 stocks
-Blake destroyed people in this tournament and everyone knows it

Lol you're the best teammate but one person can't make a team. No matter how hard you carry/carried me (edit: and you did), we're still free because that team starts out down 4 stocks.

Also gg I can't read

The original post of this thread looks ugly as hell right now due to the Smashboards upgrade, but hopefully they'll restore all the BBcode tags soon.

I wish I had hosted that tourney the weekend before. Stupid ass Chicago bailing last-minute. At least Teczero still came.

Look at the cute michigan player that is excited about taking a match off two terrible players. Just so cute.

Edited for cuteness.
