I'm going to be bored tomorrow. I have it off and don't live TOO far from Modesto. Anybody wanna smash tomorrow? If we can get a small group going, It'll be worth my trip, but if it's just like...1 random noob, then it's really not worth it...unless that random noob buys me a rockstar, then it'll be slightly worth it. lol

jaime, you can come smash with me, i'll be down any time. just call/text/message on here if you want to come. you could maybe try coaxing nick or adaias to come but they have school johns.

@ Osaka: Dude I hella remember you that time I went to Xilo's place for that smashfest with my dumb friend that got a ticket for speeding and eating a burrito while driving lol. You play fox right??
haha, uh at that time i was having a slight character main identity crisis going on, and im probably not good enough to say i main anyone, but the past year or maybe a bit more ive been trying to main marth. i play falco on the side.

Yeah, you've definitely gotta camp like crazy. i'll get those kills, no worries

I've been practicing about 3 hours a day for the last week for this tournament in between studying for finals. I can't really get any teams practice in though so we'll have to make sure we get plenty of that in friday/saturday
wow i approve of this so much

but yeah remember that even tho its good you've been practicing, sleep before a tournament is the most important. and mindset

My final is from 6:30pm to 8:40pm. I'd be down to smash after that if you guys are up for it

hey nick, are you bringing your setup to gsg2 like last time? if you are, is it cool if you record some friendlies or money matches of mine?
Yes and yes. I'll bring 2 or 3 setups, plus my laptop for recording. I'll bring one of the TVs with a built in VCR so I can record on that as well. I'll probably record some MMs/ friendlies of myself this time

wow i approve of this so much

Haha, I'm actually gonna take this tournament seriously for once. And by that I mean that i'm not gonna stay up hella late and be tired all day for the tournament lol. Without at least 8 hours of sleep I'm simply not gonna be playing at my 100% best. I'm gonna make sure to eat a lot during the tournament too (which is something I usually almost completely ignore)

I bet modesto could collectively buy you a rockstar.

And maybe make sure you don't lock your keys in your car ;)

I bought a spare too, and then lost it. I fail pretty hard at this kinda stuff. lol. I couldn't help it last time. I was getting out of the car and saw Nick and he was just so sexy that I got distracted. hahaha

Practicing a bit then sleeping well-> ongoing mindgames. I approve of this strategy.

Maybe one day you will be able to l-cancel in your sleep

oh modesto

we need to discuss housing like asap

since wes won't have electricity, i wanna play smash, so i figure i guess we'll be leaving sat morning now

our options for housing on sat night are sheridan's... or well that is what we are probably gonna do

it's about 50 min, and a $4 toll but whatever, you guys are gonna have to deal

this would be a good reason for us all to go together andre

Well yeah, no electricity is slightly disappointing. Saturday morning it is then. What time?

And if we are leaving saturday morning i'm assuming that andre would go with us.

get at my legita gift tissue tech skill arrangements. I am now a gift tissue expert.

Alright, i'll probably show up at Keith's place / get a ride if possible.

I want to try SC2 again to practice the very basic fundamentals
nick is already here with jaime right now adaias, if you can get a ride over here nick said he'd take you home.

i'm not very experienced against sheik.

i remember jr's sheik would zero to death my fox by only tech chasing or punishing when i don't tech.

she can do it on reaction alone... that's bull****! haha

Yeah its actually proven that sheik can infinitely tech chase fox as long as the player reacts fast enough. That's pretty ****. That's aint mango's designated second best character for no reason

xD

good tech chasing is the result of playing tons of marth, and sandbagging in fox dittos for years

*u throws another fox, lets them fall to the ground, and tech chases forever, rinse and repeat*

lol yeah i think playing marth has kinda improved my tech chasing ability a lot. i do it a lot on captains :D and fox to a pretty big extent as well, but uthrow is a way better option in 95% of the situations.
