The guy entered as "nobody" and in game had a tag that said "NOTAP"

Not sure who that is.

I'm salty on that one. He was no Zwarm or Jspear either.

Scrubbed it up hard his past week. 1,2 KO dude. Pffffffff

Probably just some nobody that wants to be a part of the action. (・_・' )

I got lucky on that set; you are the far better player.
I just try to play with my head since my technical execution is so sloppy at the moment. (~_~ ' )

You got unlucky in having Mera first round, he's one of Wisconsin's better PM players
I hope I get the guy next WDW singles. I have the matchup theory and punishes. O.o

Good sets over at E2C at Durty Nellies, brudda. You placed well in that tournament, too!

Great games Atomsk, Norm, Captain Faceroll, SeeSaw and whoever else I got to play.

My thanks to all of you at EXP Gaming for running such an excellent shindig.

Is there an estimate on when the next Smash 101 is gonna be? I plan to be in Chicago for a couple of days in July and am trying to figure out when.

They're usually mid month, couple weeks or a week before the monthly.

Yee.

WDW is also a thing.

Yeah, was planning to go to both if possible. I should be able to come up in mid-July.

Also Shion, I faced you in the Indy tournament in March. You down for a rematch?

So on top of Webs post, I have a few more tournament matches that were recorded on the side from this last WDW.

Once they're done uploading, I'll post them here.

Wavedash Wednesday results for PM and Melee 6/18/14: GHOST EDITION

PM Top 4: (53 entrants)

1. Oro?!
2. Lazarond
3. Kels
4. Double
Full Bracket: http://challonge.com/EXP_PM_51

Melee Top 4: (41 entrants)
1. Kels
2. Trail
3. Vro
4. Cosmo
Full Bracket: http://challonge.com/EXP_Melee_49


Really fun week ^_^ We had around 70 unique entrants between both events, which equated to a pretty crowded venue. Thanks to some help from Cosmo and a raid from Prog and the Melee it on Me crew, we topped out at around 680 concurrent viewers during Melee Grand Finals. We're one step closer to the 1000 viewer mark :) and nearing 500 subs on the youtube channel too!

Melee was pretty status quo; Kels took home the title in a convincing GF set against Trail, and Vro continued his strong placings in 3rd. Cosmo earned his shot at revenge against Scythe in Losers Quarterfinals once more, and was able to clutch out a 3 game Falco ditto set that landed him 4th place.

Double took a bunch of names on his way to a 4th place finish in Project M, including Metroid, Scythe, and Lazarond. Lazarond did get his revenge, however, making a huge run through losers on his way to Grand Finals where he ran into an Oro?! who opted to play Marth, Link, and Fox in lieu of his usual ZSS. After dropping his first 2 games of Marth and Link, Oro?!'s Fox ran 3 straight (and incredibly tight) games in a row to close out the tournament.

PM and Melee VODs are up at http://www.youtube.com/windycitysmash or you can watch the twitch archive at http://www.twitch.tv/windycitysmash
