Here's our "official" rules (courtesy of DoH):

RULES

4 stock

8 minute time limit

2/3 sets, 3/5 for semi-finals and finals.

No items

In the event of a tie: sudden death is played out, then the winner of that chooses the stage for the final extra 1 stock 2 minute match

First stage random or agreed upon

Dave's Stupid Rule: no stage you previously won on can be repicked unless it's allowed by the other player(s)

Double blind character picks if necessary for first match (i.e. upon request)

Stage striking: each player can strike one stage from the random stage select only. Not for the entire set.

Advanced slob picks: loser picks stage, then winner picks character, then loser picks character

Controller Mods, Glitches (IC Freeze Glitch, Mewtwo Soul Stunner, etc), and tactics used to stall a match (wall-bombing, rising pound), are banned. You know what we mean when we say this so don’t try and pull any ****.

Bomb Custom Rule (BCR): If something is mutually agreed upon, you may play it (outside of changing the best 2/3, items, and 4 stock). In other words, if you hate DSR, Stage Knockouts, Counter Picking (just wanna go Double Blind?), etc, declare before hand and you don't have to use it. Also, if you do agree to it, and your lose, you're screwed, don't come crying to us.

Teams rules: team attack on and life stealing allowed

1 v 1 Random Stages: Final Destination, Fountain of Dreams, Dreamland 64, Poke Stadium, Yoshi's Story, Battlefield, Kongo Jungle 64, Brinstar

1 v 1 Banned Stages: Hyrule Temple, Yoshi 64, Fourside, Icicle Mountain, Flatzone, Venom, Brinstar Depths, Big Blue, Termina

2 v 2 Random Stages: Final Destination, Dreamland 64, Poke Stadium, Yoshi's Story, Kongo Jungle 64, Battlefield, Brinstar, Mute City

2 v 2 Banned Stages: Hyrule Temple, Fourside, Icicle Mountain, Flatzone, Venom, Brinstar Depths, Big Blue, Fountain of Dreams, Termina

We are generally seasoned with this set-up, so if you have any questions, feel free to ask.

1) remember our old license plates that used to say "Oklahoma- we're OK!"
it feels like that with the name "ok smashers."

OOSer: So you guys are from OK?
OKS: Yeah.
OOSer: How's your playing style?
OKS: Just okay.

so we should think of something more spiffy. forget spiffy, how aboug gnarly. or radical...or trippin'. oh ****s, better yet, something along the lines of "righteous"

2) scud's roy hates my yoshi. and yoshmeister, yoshi does not require much wavedashing, but he has a lot of individual tricks like samus and the space birds do, so read his character specific thread to see what he is capable of.

has everyone seen taj's mewtwo video!?! it's f'ing awesome. if anyone is looking for another character, pick him up(even if he is last in the new tier list)...taj's video makes PC Chris or Chillindude829 look like scrubs with their stupid high tier character. he doesn't combo on them, but i mean, he pwns a lot of foxes and falcos.


vegafuse, are you teaming with KOS-MOS? i just wanted to know because i want to see how many obstacles Scud and I need to get past to win teams this year :p
seriously, we have some wicked team options, and how can we practice it?

3) WE NEED TO HAVE A SMASHFEST THIS UPCOMING WEEKEND BEFORE THE TOURNY!
this way everyone can practice, everyone can meet, and is the flyers are printed out, i can take about 25-50 and put them up in Norman, and people form other cities can do that where they live, too. it's brilliant! so, rasta, gravity, or whoever, if you can set up a smashfest this weekend, it would be marvelous. practice, metting, flyer distrobution- it will the make the tourny 2 times as good :)


and, is anyone doing brackets yet? if not, i'll happily volunteer. we're doing it with a losers bracket, right, where everyone out goes into the losers bracket, and they continue to play until they are out there. then the loser in the winner's bracket take on the winner of the losers bracket to play the winner of the winners bracket for 1st place. and, if we have time, we should also do 4v4 crew battles(no cost) and make sign up at the tourny. just, after the singles and doubles are done we can have a fun, single elimination crew bracket? sounds great to me!
to my knowledge, vegafuse and rasta are in charge, so get back to me soon, please :)

im not available to host a smashfest, but i could go to one, and i think azens mewtwo beat chu's samus once, but the samus wasnt that good, and for that matter niether was the mewtwo but whatever

and i honestly have no ideas for the name

and i dont know who would team up, but 4v4 sounds like a great idea

hmm... we could just call ourselves something overusedand stupid like best in the southwest or something

and as for practicing teams, just fight once computer at first, and just practice using team tactics, and then move on to two computers, and then keep practicing team tactics. level 1 cps by the way.

speaking of computers, grav, i was playing one yesterday and i pulled some Silent Spectre crap!
i dashed away from a roy forward smash, then moonwalked back into him and fair'd him off the level!
it was one of those moments where you go, "i wish that was on a human, and i wish someone else saw that"

in other news, don't be worried, yosh, no on here is creepy, save zinth and shade.
the rest of us are cool.

just kidding...kind of :p

I'm doing brackets.

And KE, I can help you on most of those characters, though right now I'm feeling too funky to type up anything too complicated.

A Smashfest sounds awesome. I'm going to that Yoshi thread right now. Train for the tournament, this Yosh must!

yosh, i am going to PM you with some links that will come in handy with yoshi. and if there is a smashfest before the tourny, and you go, i promise to spend some time helping you with your yoshi skills. i'm sure grav and some other people will help KE with his samus skills, too. my first smash tourny- everyone was nice to me, which was cool. it was also where i saw scud after not talking to him for three years. that was random, but was cool because now scud and i rejoice in smash and pizza quite often, because both are awesome.

and Reno comes from my avatar :p
Reno= a Turk from Final Fantasy VII

lol yeah, the few times i fight computers i always get the best combos, but i might as well just put sandbag with AR and beat him up.

speaking of sandbag, im going to mention moveswap one more time, in that he can take pichus moves with little crashing, but i havent actually tried it.

and yeah, hope to see you at the smashfest, if there is one. bring those friends you talked about

but theres this slightly OCD-ish thought ive entertained, but never found any practical way to actually do, is to record everything i ever do on that game, that way if something awesome happens, id have it on tape. but thats too expensive to find some way to store it all, and buy the equipment and all that junk.

yeah, id be glad to help with samus, so i hope theres a smashfest

Hey new peeps (KE and yosh)! I don't post too much, but I am part of OK smash! :). I hope to see you guys soon at a smashfest.
This really sucks.................there is a concert in Dallas with some bands I like on the 22nd :-/. IF it is at all possible it would be amazing if we could move it :-/. I just don't to miss either. Kuni come to my house this week :p. No but yet let's plan something if we can this week Kuni. Reno I freaking love you. Roy hates Yoshi.

Tis Yoshmeister. Wow, you are AWESOME, Reno! I really hope that there is a Smashfest...
Pizza + Smash= FUN. XD
Hey, do you know anyone who knows stuff about Link? Anyone for Roy?
Haha...I know who Reno is. He's awesome and funny. I saw that Final Fantasy movie, Advent Children, with one of my friends.
Interesting, Gravity. Y'know that reminds me of something that happened with both our friends. It was hilarious. One of our friends said "Hot, anal, s**." after it happened. XD I won't go into detail...

yeah, scud loves me almost as much as he loves "italian sausage", wink wink.
just kidding. are you talking about blues traveler, scud, or something else? it's just funny because i was thinking about seeing blues traveler on the 22nd until the tourny was placed there. i'm sure there are more concerts on that day in dallas, so it oculd be something else, but knowing our coincidences, who knows.


and yeah, grav, wish i had video equipment, but then i think, if i'm not good enough to reenact it on a semi-regular basis, then i shouldn't tape it, as it does not reflect me in any way. it's pessimistic, but it's a way to not feel depressed by having no camera.

zinth, i could host any pics, videos, or audio you would need for your website, if you're making it yet. my sister owns a small hosting site, and as a matter of fact, hosted some stuff for the comedian dane cook once :)
so yeah, i'm trying to be...helpful and stuff. because that's who i am. quick rick. wait...i don't follow my own logic.


edit: yosh, i used to play link some, but really don't know anything, i just know how to drop and catch my own bombs quickly, how to do his "recovery bomb tech", and how to bair grab.
as far as roy goes, ask scud and rastaimposta, they are our roys.

edit 2: so, that means a smashfest could only be held by rasta...or scud. ahem, *cough*scud*cough

either way, you know what's insane scud? my sister still hasn't come home for more than an hour since friday morning. i feel all lonely.
i hope if i'm an old lonely person, i'm the type who goes to bars and pretends he can still dance, and not the type who fall asleep watching laverne and shirley with fritos crumbled atop his wife beater. both are bad, but i prefer lame over disgusting. for cereal.

Thanks for the offer Reno, but I'm actually sharing a web server with some people, so we're good there :)

Haha, when I'm an old person, I hope I'm the type who can kick your *** :p :laugh:

Anyway new peeps, I hope you all will become regulars at Smashfests and such, it's great having new people :bigthumbu

Reno: Yeah, Kosmos and I are still teaming up. I know for sure that loser bracket will be applied to singles and teams. As for Crew battles, I don't know what Rasta has planned for the duration of the tourny, but I'm all for it. Everything's really Rasta's call, however, he may include the 4v4 due to popular demand. So if anyone here wants it, be sure to tell him.

As usual, my 4v4 team is:
PoPimpus
Patrick
Fresh
Vegafuse

BTW, Reno, since we have the Great Plains, we can dub ourselves "Plain Smashers"! Or we could mix it up, like the "Plain OK Smashers"! Sounds exciting, huh.

OOSer: So you guys are from OK?
OKS: Yeah.
OOSer: How's your playing style?
OKS: Just okay............. And plain.

I can't agree with that more.

Haha. Yes, Melee has been a very good thing for me. I've met lots of new people this way.

Also, I can help anyone with pretty much any character. Maybe not with some as much as others can (Rasta would be a much better Ice Climbers tutor than I :laugh:), but I pretty much know the basics with them all. I'll be able to help you out the most though with Marth, Fox, Sheik, and Jigglypuff.

yeah ive met the coolest people through smash

for 4v4 itd probably be
Gravity?
Shade?
Zinth?
Dart?
????

i just thought that up ,and have not collaberated with any of them so who knows

and i hope whoever you talked about yosh joins too,the more the merrier

and it could be just "plain old smashers" i guess. i think it has a certian ring to it.

smashfest at scuds would be awesome, but so would one at rastas, cuz i could spend the night again, since im at my dads house, but shhhh! dont tell my mother...

and when im old ill probably be one of those people in the mall sitting on the bench all day, or something like that.

i can only help with samus. how boring.

plus thats like the 10th time tongiht someones posted while im constructing my post, which makes me answer the same questions and other embarassing things

haha, i vote that vegafuse is the funniest and normal-coolest smasher we have. and if you don't agree, it's because you're mildly ********. "why normal-coolest", you say? because weird-coolest goes to rasta.

anyhow, crew battles sound awesome. i'm a genious. and i'm modest.

so, i'm guessing classen have their own crew :p

officially, nothing yet then until rasta comes back and posts something. semi-ficially(h3llsyeah i just made that a word), though, vega has 1 team, and reno(don't want to refer to myself in 3rd person but in context it seems right) is looking for a team. scud? rasta? kos-mos? anyone? come on, i'm really cool once you get to know me!

i think we can get at least 8 crews together with houston and all the newcomers this summer :)


edit: in reference to king eagle/yosh, i main CF and vegafuse is really good with him, so yeah, if your friend needs help i can try to answer any questions. hopefully he joins smashboards!

edit2: i think we have to be Oklahoma! Plain Smashers. the "!" in regards as a spoof to the rogers and hammerstein musical/our state song. because we're cool like that, spoofing things. i dunno, if someone has a grand idea, speak up. i'll sleep on it, see what i come up with.

Oh, and I got the message.:D
Haha...T-shirts are cool.
KE suggested a name. It's Great Playin' OK! XD

Great Plain-Great Playin'

we live for puns.

i don't know how we would incorperate that into a name, unless it was the Great Playin' OK Smashers. oh well, i'll leave all the rest to grav, vega, and zinth. i'm burnt out.

so, do you guys(rasta/vega) need an approximate number of how many people will be there? if so you might as well start asking for signup about now. you want things to be set a couple of days before everything goes down, just in case something comes up, it will be less work to fix that 1 thing instead of fixing 1 thing plus doing other stuff.

XD That would be a silly name, Reno. :chuckle:
Heh, KE is good at making puns. He had another one: Just Plain Great Smashers of Oklahoma. He couldn't think of anything intimidating or cool.
A thread focused entirely on the tourney? Hmm...Sounds like a good idea.:D My friend just went to bed, but he might join tomorrow. I hope he does.
Oh, and I read your PM. I'll have to watch the vids at my local library.
Thanks for the info, Reno! :)

Lol Reno and Yosh. I've started a list about a month ago but I haven't updated it in a while. So far a showing of 30-35 people is pretty much what's expected. The concern right now is actually getting a good supply of equipment. I say 10-12 TV's/Cube's each would be suffecient for a 12-hour tourny. I'll get the equipment sign-up list started and we could just update it in a "batonpass" fashion. I'll start:

TV's
(1) Vegafuse

Cube's
(1) Vegafuse

Total TV's: 1
Total Cubes: 1

OR, we could preferrably start a new thread. I'll create it when I get back from work tomorrow or you guys can take the job up yourselves.

Oh, and just to remind everyone that there's going to be another Smash tourny at the Ronincon in OU this Fall. From what I heard, it usually has a decent turnout of regular Smashers. Just something you guys might want to consider........... I'll search for updates whenever October nears by.

LOL!XDXDXD
Wait...It's a TWELVE hour tourney?Wow...Never expected that.

A new thread still sounds like a good idea.:D

Hmmm...Equipment...XD EEEEQUIPMENT MANAGA!!!!! IF KE and I go we could bring our Cube and controllers. TV? Too much of a hassle. Our dad would not like that...
Awesome! Another tourney! Hope we can make it too that one too.

12 hours? its gonna have to be from like 10-10 or 9-9, but 12 hours seems like a lot.

i guess i could start the new thread, and just have the first post be rules and address, but im hesitant to do it without rasta inputting something first, and actually he should probably start the thread if he shows up before tomorrow, when vegafuse offered to do it.

does anyone have more info on this fall tourny? its the first ive heard of it.

and also at this point im not sure i can bring a tv, so just to be safe i wont

TV's
(1) Vegafuse
(1) Zinth

Cube's
(1) Vegafuse
(1) Reno
(1) Zinth
(1)Gravity

Total TV's: 2
Total Cubes: 4

oo, i see you picked fox as your secondary officially now, gravity :)

i am cfalc- yoshi...and then, i suck with fox, link, marth, ness and jigglypuff, but i like them.
so i don't know if i am ready to pick a third. but i do want a third one, maybe a fourth, too, because i want a few counterpick options. 5 people to pick from, 2 to actually pick. and then i have to work that in with my yoshi and CF practice :)
hmm. fox takes a lot of time to get good with. so, he's not great if you have a lot of characters. and, forget ness, yoshi is low tier enough. it'll probably be jigglypuff and marth, but link is still in the running. what do you think, people?

marth is too....common, i guess. i mean everyones marth. probably link, he just has an aura of coolness, and a lot of projectiles, which would compliment falcon. maybe. hes also like the exact opposite of falcon. so who knows, all i know, is that he has a hard wavedash.

and jigglypuff would be cool too. and if im right, i think rest takes 1 frame, plus jiggs is crazy in the air. but youd have to watch out for roy, cuz i think he can kill jiggs at any percentage in one hit with revers up b.

if i was gonna pick between thos two id pick link though, but for some reason i have a feeling hed be harder to learn, and i dont know where they stand on the tier list

but yeah, ive commited to the long haul with fox, after 8 or so months(actually im not sure how long its been)with samus, its finally time to go on to two characters.

well, i've been talking to scud, and like, i know a lot with link, like bair grabbing, recovery bomb tech, and his wavedash is kind of easy for me. only perfect wavedashing i can do is with cfalc and link, not fox, marth, or yoshi for some reason, who i've all played with a lot. but my main worry is that fox pwns yoshi and cfalc, and samus is alright against both, so i need a character who can do well against them if cfalc can't because yoshi sure as hell can't. and so i think i will pick jigglypuff.

plus, my marth will never stack up to zinth's and shade's, because i can't incorperate wavedashing into mindgames like they can. that's probably why i play with cfalc and yoshi :p
cfalc barely needs to wavedash, unless it's into a grab maybe, and yoshi's wavedash is only good for moving away...so with jiggly it's like the same thing. i can wavedash just fine, but i can only use it to my advantage technically(and only mediocre), and not in mindgames. so blah.

okay, for now it's jigglypuff, and i will only give myself until the tourny on the 22nd to decide for sure. until then, i officially have only 2 characters.
ah! i decided something! (thanks for discussion help, scud)

Alright people I'm back from Las Vegas! It's about 3:20am right now and I'm tired(imagine that). Also, welcome Yosh and KE! I've seen Yoshi kick some major a** so I phear teh Yoshiness :laugh:.

Alright people! My dad let me bring my Gamecube to Las Vegas so I could practice smash :) and my Peach is INSANE now(I even developed a good strategy against Samus :chuckle:) I also decided to pick Link back up because Marth is n00b and I'm so glad I did. Moonwalking into a b-air then reverse moonwalking into a f-air is teh sexiness. I at least got 30+ hours of smashing in with Peach, Fox, Falco and Link(I was only in Las Vegas for what? 4 days lolol).

Well I'm going to bed, so I'll fill ya'll in on how my trip went tomorrow. Oh yeah, I got you that key chain Shade :p.

random, but, i would like to see a lot of this video taped, and i hope that zinth isn't the only cool camera-wielding person we have. so, if there's anyone else who can tape anything...speak up. i think scud has a camera, if so, i will gladly spend a couple of hours taping stuff when i am not smashing. and, i'll put in money for tapes/discs/video/film, too, if the cameras don't use memory sticks

welcome back kosmos, i guess it was boring if you played smash so much.

anyway, 100th post, finally. my days of being a n00b are over!

and theres this crazy trick with samus for edgegaurding marth thats like, crazy. but im keeping it a secret for now.

i know scud has a camera, becuase we used it, and zinth has one. thats all im sure of, although, we can record it on vcr, and convert into a format for the computer. but that doesnt get the sound of the room, so its not the same.

also, youre probably get wavedashing into your mind games eventually, but its not something you can really practice. for me it just kind of fell in place one day, and know i cant not wavedash.
