or my sliiiccckkk gollddddd maaarrtttthhhhhhhhh

 

[Adapt]

Peach is the only melee character I have a chance of taking a stock with :S

What other events would there be? Brawl low tiers? Brawl+? SSB64?

 

[camden]

Kyle: Unfortunately, we're the only ones around that like Brawl+. Everyone else hates it.

 

[Raziek]

It isn't that we hate it, it's just not that entertaining, nor mainstream enough to warrant its own event. Most people don't even know what it is.

 

[Lythium]

I think Brawl+ is interesting in concept, I just don't care that much about it. Or Balanced Brawl for that matter.

I got my copy of Soul Silver yesterday, and had a FFXIII marathon with lots of ice cream. Good times, good times.

 

[Rush 2112]

I'm interested in Brawl+. Please tell me how I can get this :3

 

[Lythium]

You have to hack your Wii, homeslice. Check out the Workshop in GBD; I'm pretty sure all the info is there.

I don't particularly like B+. I would certainly play it though if it was an event.

What about the rest of my suggestions?

Having a 2-day event for just Brawl and Melee seems like a waste unless we get double the number of players (or more)

Part of the problem with holding a one-day event is that people get REALLY burned out towards the end of the day. For this reason, and because it's a regional 2-day works better. This also makes it easier for the out-of-province people.

If we tried to cram everything into one day, we would probably finish around 11PM at night. They would either have to drive back during the night, or rent a hotel/motel to stay a night anyway, so why not make it easier on everyone and do 2 days? The only issue is the venue, which is being looked into.

Low tiers..... maybe. Will depend on attendance and speed. SSB64 is unlikely, it doesn't warrant a competitive event, far too archaic. A side, friendlies station, maybe.

 

[Raziek]

Also, everyone should buy Pokemon HeartGold or SoulSilver if they haven't already.

^ I dunno why everybody's making a big fuss about that game now. I played it over 6 months ago with an english translation patch. >_>

 

[Rush 2112]

^ Well aren't you special? I won't buy it but I'l download it and play

I have a friend with a hacked Wii so I would want to try it on his. What is GBD? I searched and ended up in this forum reading a thread about people bashing Brawl+ :/ It sounds like Brawl+ is new and will be changing very much. It wouldn't be a good idea to have an event for it now. Maybe everyone would be wise to not put much time into mastering it as it will just end up changing(and drastically im sure)

I'l just focus on Melee for now

Brawl+:

GBD is general brawl discussion btw

64 warrants a competitive event more than Low tiers lol. 64 is an entirely different game, takes a lot of skill to play, and has depth, whereas Brawl Low tiers is just an event to let Low tier mains have some satisfaction for getting their a$$ whooped in the main event.

All three games deserve some love at our big shin-dig

I don't get my *** handed to me. But yes i do agree, i think all 3 games deserve love.

 

[Raziek]

I suppose the problem I have with it is that N64 controllers are typically unresponsive and it's quite hard to find ones in good condition these days. If we have enough people who have it on virtual console, that could work.

 

[Lythium]

What kind of side events are you planning for this shindig?

 

[zhao_guang]

Exceptions to everything

VC deal would probably have to be how it happens, unless people are fine with sharing between a select number of N64 controllers. The game is very good though, and deserves at least a side event, not to mention I've heard some players really enjoyed this game and could be very good at it. (Cam and Steven come to mind.)

Our group is always aiming for diversity, so might as well keep it fresh with a never-before tourny used Smash game in NS!

@Katie, we have no idea what we're planning yet xD. We still need to lay down to big stuff first, like date, venue, etc..

lol well I'm not trying to brag. the point of the post is that a LOT of people played it a long time ago, so IMO the hype is significantly less than what it was way back in Sept. =(

I have 2 N64 Controllers, an N64, and a SSB64 game that I can provide for the event. I believe the controllers are in good condition, but I haven't used them in a while. I'll fire up the game later tonight to confirm that everything is in working order.

Also, I loved SSB64 way more than melee, and I used to be good (in my own mind)
I played Parker in a match at the last bi-weekly and didn't do too badly for my first time in roughly 10 years.

In short I fully support this event

Same with me, I have two solid controllers, an N64 and SSB64 that I'm willing to donate if push comes to shove. If VC is more requested then it won't be necessary but it's nice to play on the original system.

I'm terrible at this game, I only use Pink Luigi just because half the time I don't know what I'm doing so I **** around. It's a treat to watch good 64 players, wonder if there's anyone in Nova Scotia who's secretly a genius at the game

Even if it isn't a side event, I'll bring it for the ****s and giggles. I'm also planning on getting a capture card later on, so I can record matches for all three games!

 

[Adapt]

I am a Jigglypuff main in SSB64

Dair>Usmash ftw. Also, rest is amazing in the game

 

[zhao_guang]

so yea for the last few months now, my wii has been on the fritz. i can only get in two wifi matches before it stops reading the disc for a while. someone told me to give it a couple of days break, so when i went to Newfoundland for the past 4 days i did.

still doesnt work LOL.

if i can't go to the bi-weekly in early April to get jordan to clean it for me (<3) maintaining my smash career is pretty much over. especially since the 2 games i played yesterday i got roflraped in dubs by Parker and Nick. so in short;

<--- losing interest in smash

 

[Spaceman_Spiff]

That sucks Colin, maybe four days wasn't enough. I've gone months without thinking about smash, then randomly got back into it hard.

Or maybe your just ready to transfer all your time to melee.

 

[Raziek]

If you go to the April 3rd bi-weekly, I promise you I will clean your Wii Colin. For srs.

 

[zhao_guang]

my wii sometimes reads melee, maybe i wont be too terrible at that

 

[billybeegood]

if you can't make it
Gimme your address and i'll send you a wii cleaning kit via mail. you're just that good

 

[Spaceman_Spiff]

I cant wait for melee doubles at the next tourney.

If Parker and Nick team in melee I will bet $20 on them to take it, but I'm sure no one is dumb enough to take that bet.

 

[zhao_guang]

if cleatus doesn't enter Melee, i'd team with you and that's pretty much game there

 

[Lythium]

I'll need to kick out the jams in Brawl doubles this time around.

 

[teenwolftoo]

I'm gonna have to 1 vs 2 in brawl next tournament.

 

[zhao_guang]

Nick and Parker aren't winning the next dubs tourny

COUNT

ON

IT

 

[billybeegood]

oh don't worry....it'l happen

 

[Syko_Lemming]

I'm gonna have to 1 vs 2 in brawl next tournament.

You should get that level 9 Snake as your teammate. I hear he's been practicing his power sheilding and C4 recovery.

 

[zhao_guang]

me and cleatus played some melee last night, forced a few games out of the dead wii and

he's so fuhcking annoying with his rests xD

someone should pick up Jigs as a main for melee, you'd probably win -_-

 

[MALCORE]

i hate posting on facebook now because everything is turned into a debate. thanks a lot jordan

 

[Lythium]

I try not to post my opinions on the FB group at all.

 

[zhao_guang]

there's only like 6-7 people who actually discuss stuff now on the group, if even that LOL.

remember the summer time with the infinites debate? where we had posts every 5 minutes from like 20 various people? GOOD TIMES SMASH HALI!

 

[Raziek]

Whoah whoah whoah, how is that MY fault? I didn't start the whole Phax gaming thing. >_>

 

[billybeegood]

I made the debate thread....I believe it was deemed necessary...duefully regretted
