[DLA]

If only he knew the unholy retribution of banana peels that awaited him. We could have saved him.

 

[ITALIAN N1NJA]

Not sure if I'll be able to make it out tomorrow. The weather will be bad and cause loads of traffic. So I'm unsure. If I can't make it, my bad. I'll be there Saturday for sure!

 

[HarryTheChin]

[B.W.]

Looking at my past results. I'm determined to get passed 13th place. We're doing something different this Wednesday though aren't we?

 

[Zwarm]

Looking back at past results, I remembered I used to get like, top 5 at most of these

I'm determined to get back up there. You guys better watch out

 

[snex]

top 5 is easy when only 5 people show up. blame the documentary.

 

[Zwarm]

I got like top 5 with 20 people! In PM

Besides I never did well in Melee except one time I got third to Rat and Oro haha

 

[SixSaw]

So I just got around to filling out the Rivalries doc, saw that it's canceled which is too bad. I was hype

If I'm any indication, there might have been more interest than form submissions suggested. The doc was kind of a hassle to fill out, needed a lot of info, and at least in my case I put off filling it out because I assumed the person MMing me had already. I understand the need to have things set up in advance, but maybe if there was a better system for registering where people could make/ accept challenges in one place, like a public doc or something, there would have been more responses. Definitely hope it gets tried again at some point.

 

[B.W.]

It was canceled? That's a shame. I won't be able to enter the next two Wednesdays because of work. I'll try to show up for friendlies though

 

[onionchowder]

UChicago represent! 3rd, 4th, 5th, 17th, & 17th in Melee. Good stuff, guys. Trail and Kels seem like a whole tier above us though.

I got 100% team-killed =[

 

[Webs]

U Chi is real, I'd love to see you guys more often

 

[Fliperotchy]

I got a CRT, so the true training begins now. I'm sticking with my low tiers and coming for EVERY ONE OF YOU when I'm not free anymore. xD

Hey Manny I think we played last week. (you played Luigi a bunch?) You're not free! You almost beat Money!

 

[Mega Manny]

Yeah, I main Luigi. and thanks! I'm new, so I'm just glad to play whoever I can and get better and all that stuff. I remember you, I don't think we played today though.

 

[Kaysick]

Work johns for me. Better not have any next week or else I'm making someone take my shift.

 

[B.W.]

I already did the same thing Kaysick so you better

 

[ITALIAN N1NJA]

Wish I had a job. Hopefully will find one soon. I'd really like to become a regular at WDW. Tons of fun. Always a good time. Feel like I get better every time I attend.

I'm starting to sound like a broken record, but once again we've broken our entrants record for overall events! The stream looked great this week thanks to some venue rearrangement by Zwarm and Bobby, and its only going to get better with everyone chipping in to the Stream Quality Fund. According to sources on the Facebook group we broke 150+ viewers for the night, which is also a record. (by quite a bit if I'm not mistaken)

PM and Melee top 4 VODs should be up sooner or later at http://www.youtube.com/windycitysmash or you can watch the twitch archive at http://www.twitch.tv/windycitysmash

 

[Kaysick]

I bet the Xanadu crew battle helped a good amount for us. Its worth driving out all the way there for something like that. People who watch their stream now know another stream to watch in Wednesdays.

 

[DLA]

Yeah I felt like the atmosphere was a little different last night. It might just be the feng shui from moving all of the TVs around or something, but it's starting to feel more competitive and exciting on Wednesdays. I had a blast last night and I also felt really good with how I played. I'm really excited about our continued growth, it's very refreshing after how much Smash had staled the past few years.

Dude the feng shui change was great. That pillar was always in the way of the stream. Now it seems to have a better set up. It seems much less claustraphobic now.

Bobby, Molly, and I spent a good amount of time figuring out a good layout for the room, I'm glad you guys like it.

And then I was there that Tuesday night just talking and not wanting to leave :D

 

[Zwarm]

You were still talking to Webs at that point haha

 

[Kaysick]

You were still talking to Webs at that point haha

Webs left before we did, was talking to @ B.W.

 

[B.W.]

My girlfriend was so mad.

 

[Zwarm]

Errrr, that's who I meant, but they were still around when I was talking to Bobby and Molly anyway

 

["Shion"]

Lol @ Webs the 'Shion is God' edition. xD

Yo boi Shion gettin' on them money matches this past WDW tho. Had like 3 or 4 takers!

 

[5-oNe]

so it looks like m2k will be here next week most likely will be at wdw as well as exposure.lets show this kid a good time while beating him in some pm.you wanna talk about boosting our popularity and getting exp even more exposure in back to back weeks.this is a perfect way to do it.and if we are the smash community that i know we are (instead of the one that was on fb a few weeks ago) then we know he will be coming back for the tourney in may and hopefully that might bring bigger names as well...*cough cough possibly mango*

 

[snex]

m2k coming to exposure? does he need a doubles partner? ;x

 

[MachinegunNorm]

pretty sure he decided he wasn't coming 5-1.

 

["Shion"]

He put up a post on FB, Norm.

Ol' boy is comin on the 26th. Thursday I believe?

 

[MachinegunNorm]

naw thats wednesday, i guess he is coming, sounds like he'll be there at wdw

 

["Shion"]

Lets bop his punkass.

 

[Kaysick]

He said Kirby was bad, I'm only playing Kirby against him.
