Alright firstly I apologize to Zoap. I got that one wrong. Hopefully, though, you realize that I was reacting to Tree's post more than I was accusing you. It may not read like that, but that's what happened.

I'm a little nervous about this event. I don't want anything to go wrong.

The only reason doubles is getting second glanced is because we're not using a new format for that. It's more about comparison than attention. If I'm going to try out this new format then I need to take as many precautions as possible in case something goes wrong. Doubles before singles is more than okay with me, though I don't really know many people who just play doubles then don't stick around for singles. Some people don't ENTER singles (like me a lot) because they can't really afford it or aren't very interested.

But anyway, doubles before singles is okay with me. However, if this is so then I really must enforce a strict time limit for starting. We must start at 11 at the latest. I don't want the team tournament ending at 3 having us start singles at 5.

Plus, I think it'd be nice to know if Mike or Kizzo are going to add any charges to the entry fee for things like capture cards or whatnot.

Finally, bring your cubes.

yea i get u scamp i know ur a good guy, online its kinda hard to tell how things are meant to be taken. I agree that doubles should be at 11, so there is plenty of time for the drift.

See you all there :)

Yeah ok, that's fine then. Just so people know, I will not let anyone have a lunch break this time, so if you want to get something to eat, it'd be wise to do it during teams because you will be busy during the singles tournament. We usually finish teams around 3-4 so yeah, we'll start singles right after.

Mike or Kizzo: Like Scamp said, it would help if you guys could post up the entry fees so we know how much is being taken out, if any, and for what please :D

I guess the price will be $5 per person for teams (all going to smoking pot), and $7 for drift ($2 for capture card, $1 for club, $4 for smoking pot). It is the case.

Hmm, yeah I liked this format, pretty good. I got to play alot of matches but I kinda lost interest and started to do bad after I like my 2nd lost but ZOMG johns, gg's to everyone I played, all my matches were hella good. We have hella people coming up now, this format helped alot of us realize how good some of the non top 25ers actually are XD, I know not to underestimate people now :D, but yeah, gg's everyone, and there's way too many shout outs that I could do so....yeah...;) I like the regular double elimination brackets a little better, but this was a good change, I guess I like double elimination more juss because I'm used to it XD

Major props to Scamp . . . DRIFT was great. Lots of matches, and a way better idea of where people should be ranking, for the most part. It was lots of fun today, and I'll see you guys in December.

SCAMP - OMFG FOR ANYONE WHO DIDN'T COME BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT DRIFT WOULD SUCK, SHAME ONNNNNNNN YOUUUUUUUUU. very good idea, props to anyone that helped out with this!!!! i didn't get to play a single peach today... man i wanted to play u ><

Ian - man its a shame you weren't in the mood for smash today ><. when my grandmother goes back to china, we might be able to play some more on the weekdays XDDD. if you get the chance, tell him i give your dad much thanks for spending his time to drive me ><.

Justin - ****, sorry for being a pathetic team partner ><. i noticed that we lost at almost the exact times lol... we even got same placing XD. but we ended up not playing each other (which is good for me =)). thanks again for teaming man ^^. stupid crazy falcos... u / germ T_T. omg teach me how to falco ditto T_T.

Justin (afro) - definitely nice to see you back. shoutouts aren't really necessary cause we talked on aim! ^^. haha remember the triple shine - > shine kill combo!!!

Kurtis - u are both fun / scary to be around. it fluctuates very quickly though... but fun matches XDD... i hate sheiks... but i'm sure u hate spazzy falcos even more ><.

Bryant - Man, if i didn't have friendlies with you on thursday, i think i would have easily lost against you today ><. great matches man, thanks for encouraging me T_T... hopefully we can play sometime, i'll make sure the ride to my house is worth it ><.

bootle - haha i realize i still don't know your name... oh well half the time when i talk to you i can't tell if you're mocking my serious attitude so i half play along and half take it seriously ><. either way, very good marth... obvious improvement lol... i don't know why ppl find it incredible that u win so much.

Mike (MC) - ****... falco / fox out of NOWHERE. seriously crazy... ionno what BTZO is doing to you, but seriously you have an incredible falco / fox... its not even funny ><. ah well, we both play alot better than months ago at my first biweekly... XDD.

but wow... i'm going to miss biweeklies so much... T_T... this eliminates all chances of me getting on rankings T_T...
