The rules usually say "no techniques to *excessively* stall a match". Peach has a technique called the wall bomb where she can stay against a wall forever. The rules just say that you're not allowed to spend an entire match down below a level waiting for time to run out. Same thing for jigglypuff, who can use pound to stay in the air indefinitely.

Samus's bomb hop isn't infinite. You can only stay in the air for so long using it, thus there is no restriction to doing it.

The rule is there to keep someone from doing a couple percent of damage, then hiding away for the rest of the match where the other guy can't get him. Don't worry about it.

Alright, cool. I'll try and be there if I can. Maybe bring a friend if at all possible.

I just really hope I have Friday off now. I wasn't expecting there to be a Tournament around here. Especially so soon after I posted. *laugh*

I should have posted sooner. >_< Then I could have requested Friday off.

Or Jigglypuff on stages like Pokefloats or Mute being beyond recovery unless she stalls with the forward+b until the level lets her live. That's permitted as well, as it constitutes a recovery form of the stall.

What Darkfur has in his awesome join date, I think Dark has in experience. Dark and Light get my vote for best travelled for AZ. They've prob played every person that is on the competitive scene in our fine state.

Yes, Light and Dark travel SOOOOO much to play. It's crazy. They should seriously start logging miles. Just for ****s, you know.

And that includes picking my and Alicia's ***** up from the middle of ****ing Van Buren after midnight. (Long story...)

I've got good news. I had to work Friday but a good friend of mine offered to pick up my shift. ^^

Now I just gotta find out the exact location in comparison from where I am. It shouldn't be too far. I live on Hardy. And I'm set. I don't mind using a different handle. [Hope. Mala isn't taken if so] I look forward to playing lots of people.

Will there be time for friendlies at this thing? My friend Soma said it's a good idea to play a lot of people, even if I know I'll lose and ask what they feel I should work on and get advice. I want to get better and want to learn.

Edit: Holy Crap, I can practically walk there. I live like, directly west of that location, on Hardy. I'll still probably bus it up baseline though. Me = Hates walking in the sun.

Darkfur: I offer Smash training services. Payment is received in the form of cash or delicious treats and beverages. :)
I'm afraid that, due to my financially poor college student status, I can't really afford a required price above. "A new friend" Sorry. :/ Heck, by the end of each month I usually have somewhere between 6-9 dollars in my account total. *laugh*

But what I'd really like is a friend or friends I can play against and learn stuff from. Kinda like Soma back in GA. Stupid 3300 mile difference. *laugh*

Heh, that sucks. I just reccomend practicing advanced techniques against a level 1. Watch the Waq videos, also finding a friend that destroys you repeatedly helps. I can't wait for the next tourny. Taj I call johns on our Money match, next time I will powerade MM you (I know you like Gatorade but Powerade is what I have, plus it is not like you will get it :p (JAYKAY)). So now that Goop isn't hosting where will the next tourny be. STB I will try to make it next Saturday.

That reminds me Taj, are you open this week end for training me? If so, quickly contact me so I can prepare the treat pile. I just want to get some awesome training before heading home.
