@Alan- Sorry I couldn't make it out, school sprung a last minute essay on me so I was pretty busy all weekend.


Concerning the biweekly, I suggest we go online!

I'd host myself, but my place(s) are too small. I'd at most be able to host 2 set ups with ~6 people max for next week if no biweekly can be had. We can have money matches though.

No worries.

I'd still be willing to host it here if people are willing to come here.

2 full rooms, one with a large 25" screen with no lag, 1 room that can hold 3 13" side-by-side and seat 6 people, not counting the floor.

Guys, update.

There is a 20" TV sitting in the hallway on my floor, and it is plugged in.
If it is there when I wake up tomorrow, I am snatching it and donating it to the scene.

Hello people!

It's been about a month already, but I'm going to be taking a bit more time off. I'll most likely resume hosting stuff the week of October 23rd. I'll post closer to the date once I know whether this will be for sure or not. I did skim the thread, and it looks like Ben's not hosting anymore? Sorry to hear that, if so; I hope everyone is still getting together to play.

I'm not going to be actively reading the boards over the next few weeks either, I just thought I'd give everyone a heads-up as to what's going on.

Random side note to Ben: Just in case you didn't get the email (I didn't even though I'm pretty sure I'm on his mailing list), Charles is taking pre-registrations for the Embassy Cup tourney this year. Sign up soon! Defend your customary annual record in the 1-3 dan group!

Hey Cam, nice to hear from you again. Yeah, Ben's been hosting the past little bit, but it seems he has a new job so won't be doing that anymore (just from what I've gathered in here). Anyway, it seems you've been enjoying your time off, which is good to hear. So yeah, thanks for the heads up, and well...you know where to find us, lol.

I beat randy as fox, then he went d3 on FD and beat me, then I took him to brinstar and he went peach...

I should have cp'd him to smashville, a way better CP vs his characters

I also got really lucky with the final match where I pulled a beam sword for the win.

It was really ********

Ban Peach! She is Random Tier!

SERIOUS BUSINESS

Alright. It's Tuesday night. Friday night is 72 hours away.

What are we doing about the Fest/Biweekly?

Am I going to hold it, or what? And will there be a tourney?

We need input!

the easiest thing to do alan would be to get to westboro station for 5pm, and then we'd meet you there for sure... my work and the bus station are 3 blocks apart

I'm confirming that I'll be hosting something on the 23rd. If we have enough people/motivation for a biweekly (PND Offweekly 2?) then we can do that, otherwise it'll be a normal smashfest.

We should also discuss the future of these things, since it looks like people everywhere are losing interest (myself included). Even if things continue, I can't guarantee I'll be hosting every Friday for the next little while. I want to focus on that Go tournament I mentioned in my last post, so I'm gonna be playing a lot more Go over the next month or so. However, I do want to see everyone again at least once, so the 23rd is on for sure :)

edit: Also, has anyone found my silver controller yet?

Does it have any markings, Cam? I ended up with a spare at some point with a little bit of pain flecked off on the bottom, could that be it? I'll bring it on the 23rd just in case.

There's a discoloration under one of the handles, on the back. I think it was the left handle (under the analog stick). Also, I had a piece of tape with Fogel on it. I'm pretty sure I didn't forget it at your place way back then, but who knows!

Hey, I'm here in Ottawa for school and I was wondering if these bi-weeklies were open for anyone to join or not?

I'm open for a bi-weekly too (obviously) if we're like supposed to state our preferences. Also wouldn't mind some Blazblue on the side if anyone wants to play.
