One last chance!

[Zankoku]

Just as a note, EVO registration ends tomorrow at noon PST. That means you have a little under 26 hours to register, which itself costs $80 each, and is likely not refundable... better decide quickly whether you have faith in your donation drive or not.

I'm pretty sure it ends Sunday?

 

[Revven]

Yes, the 30th.

 

[Zankoku]

nvm I misread a tweet from @evo2k lol, Media Registration ends tomorrow.

tomorrow isn't the 30th though.

You aren't media though.

Someone buy me this shirt please.

I'll try to get you one, Brady. (This is Cameron, that one guy who used to live in Idaho, who's friends with you on Goodreads, lol)
And I totally forgot: do you still have my GoldenEye64 strategy guide. Wow. It's been a while since we've seen each other.

Just as an update, we are currently at 75 sales. That's pretty insane considering it's only been 24 hours. Keep it up people

Also currently wondering if any video editors would be willing to make a quick little video for the shirt to share on some youtube channels (MeleeAtlNorth, Waffles, etc)

That's insane! LETS GO ARMADA

No I'm quite certain you took that back from me like 3 years ago!

 

[Divinokage]

Here's a recent interview I did with ARmada last weekend at a Finnish Melee national, check it out:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7l7_grupCo&feature=youtu.be

Not directly related to the thread, but I figured I'd throw it out here

****ttt Armada knows the ways very well. As expected from a champion, though I already knew that. I did like when he said a lot of people waste their time to entertain themselves rather than taking a discipline seriously. It's so key to be successful, you gotta breathe your training or whatever your goal is.

 

[thespymachine]

Well, shoot. I haven't had it this whole time. Oh well.
Anyways. Depending on the size of my paycheck tomorrow I'll have one reserved for you. So, tank-top then?

I'm a brawl player who loves to watch some melee. I might donate if I win some money matches in the coming days.


One dramatic thought: what if armada and android had to play after they manage to advance a decent amount in brackets ? Especially if, for some reason, they're in LB ? What will happen then, will armada beat his brother for the sake of his promise? or will he destroy the very reason he's travelling for ? drama !

 

[Stratocaster]

If Armada doesn't get registered in time I'm going to be so disappointed.

Then, out of nowhere, Maury and his team of forensic investigators use a DNA sample to expose the truth that Android isn't even Armada's actual brother. He was switched at birth with none other than... HUNGRYBOX. That's right, Armada and Hungrybox are... brothers...

*dun dun DUN*

Suddenly, those long bouts of Young Link vs. Jigglypuff retroactively transform from a battle of hatred into a metaphor for their passionate, albeit misguided, brotherly love. They were simply acting out the sibling rivalry they felt in their core all this time.

Prog: "Is this what you wanted from Evo?"

 

[Shawn101589]

Up another 14 today, topping out at 89 sales! Not quite the same momentum as yesterday so let's step it up!

How about the people that donate get a return out of it, like an investment.

If he wins and the benefactors get a return, he gets a free trip to the best country in the world anyways.

These fund things are the dumbest thing and don't happen in any game other than Smash because we, the people that play this game are a group of degenerates.

 

[Sedda]

Maybe these funds are good and only happen here because it's a good community. It's called a DONATION, after all.

Scumbag Melee community: donates money to breast cancer research and impressive players to maximize their own Evo entertainment.

Yeah it does happen actually. The difference is most fighting games played at a level worthy of Evo have sponsors (i.e, people that pay for players to travel). We are just getting started down that path.

Nobody complains that Madcatz pays for Daigo to travel, or any of the other sponsored players of various fighting games. If people want to donate, they'll donate. If you don't want to, by all means don't. You don't speak for the community, and if we do reach our goal, we'll have our answer as to whether the community thinks it's important enough to donate for.

 

[Max?]

hmmmm...............................

 

[MrHazuki]

Probably the most ignorant thing I've read. We really want to see Armada play. The concept of loving a game is obviously not something you can understand.
In addition to that, we're short on time and he's the friggin' world champion.

 

[Guhnasher]

This is just fantastic, but... Who's Armada? [Kappa]

 

[oksas]

Are you guys seriously trying to get this guy 2.6 grand who randomly "quit" at the top of his game despite the feelings of the community?

hey *****

any particular reason you feel like it's your or the community's job to decide when any of its players get to make personal decisions about their smash habits?

 

[mixa]

"Investment"

Jesus, I'm dying here. Best idea.

The first meeting of Armada's One Last Chance shareholders will be at 10 a.m. EST, July 8th. After the smash brothers pillow fight.

 

[Jun.]

Hey I'm Armada

You might remember me from the other times I came and took all your sorry noobs' money. I thought wrecking all you sorry ****s was so sad that I thought I'd quit, but I could use some more League of Legends skins so figured I'd come back and do it again. Oh and this time, if you guys could pay for my trip here that'd be great.

Keep practicing and you'll make it!

[Captain Jenny]

Though this is incredibly funny, it couldn't be further from being an actual thought from Armada.

 

[♡ⓛⓞⓥⓔ♡]

90 shirts have been ordered so far, we need to step it up! Has anyone contacted Prog/Waffles/MeleeAtNorth/other ppl so that they could make a video and post it on their Youtube channel to reach more people? 160 orders is a piece of cake, c'mon we raised over 90 000 to get to EVO

 

[♡ⓛⓞⓥⓔ♡]

From what I've seen you give some pretty fantastic interviews Novi.

Thanks, it means a lot

I could see Novi doing a 60 minutes style Melee show. Having smashers talk about their deep feelings and having really intimate lengthy interviews with awkward lighting and a really calm yet mentally nerve wracking atmosphere for their guest.

I wouldn't really mind seeing something like this actually. More personal, down to earth interviews with players. The post game 5 minute sound byte interviews dont really amount to much unfortunately. Be nice to see more planned interviews that really let the interviewee express themselves on an intellectual manner.

I'd love to do something like this, if only I lived in Norcal or somewhere with a lot of top pros

Anyways, has Armada registered yet? He really should. Also we need more promotion on the T-shirt campaign. Could people like Waffles/MeleeAtNorth post a video about on their channels?

 

[Krynxe]

Merged the threads
Added the info from the other thread to this one

In the future Armada, don't make multiple threads about the same thing. Just edit/post in the first one

Yeah, people spending money on what they want is terrible!

Exactly. Armada would never play LoL.

I cannot read. Nevermind.

*Sees Armada is viewing thread*
You registered or not? The shirts are going to hit the mark. There's no doubt. You only have 7 hours to register though.

he has until the 30th...which is Sunday.

It's ok to be jealous that this is something you'd never accomplish. All you have are empty words.

You aren't media though.
https://twitter.com/evo2k/status/350298352631562241

I read this, and thought he said "You aren't media ENOUGH" implying that he should keep up with his media (twitter). I don't know why, but that made sense to me. Then I read over that it says MEDIA registration.

Reading is hard. Please forgive my foolishness oh internet.

 

[CaptainCrunch]

Trying to decide whether to buy a hoodie or just donate. Does anyone know how much Armada gets for each hoodie?
