UPDATE 3
Fonz and I played and it was so good. I'm pretty sure we could make our own combo video just from the footage.
Thats all you get for now :]
UPDATE 2
So unfortunately, I didn't make it out of pools. I went all Ganon except for my first and one game as sheik, which in retrospect was a pretty dumb idea. I realize that I probably should have saved Ganon for the rest of the day and used Sheik in tourney instead of the other way around... it's frustrating. As far as my matches went, I beat the Dedede in my pool and went 2-1 against Excel_Zero. I found the matchup to be a lot more about patience when playing the top peach as opposed to decent peaches. Aerudo and Fair worked wonders, though I didn't use Nair as much as I thought. I lost to both wolfs, one a lot worse than the other. I didn't know until after that Seagull plays DLA a lot since they're in the same clan, and consequently, he knew the match up and he ***** me. His back air wall was ludicrous and I couldn't do **** about it. The other wasn't as bad, but he still managed to pull the win out over me. On the other side, Capem is Fonz' best friend so he knows it as well... I got 6 stocked :[ I really hope you guys respect that I went Ganon, as I did it thinking about all of you, trying to raise awareness and maybe get us a little more respect. In all honesty, Excel_Zero, Capem, and myself were the most skilled players in my pool, though only Excel made it through of us. Nothing against Seagull and Xzax, as they are both very good, but I'm positive that both Capem and myself are more talented than them, Capem even more than me, but Seagull and Xzax (and Excel) made it through.
On another note, I met up with Fonz and he's real cool, real chill too. He beat seibrik 2-1 and as far as I know finished second in his pool. He went lucario, as he is smart unlike myself, and did work, but he did bring out Ganon in his last game. It was against a snake of whose name I'm unaware and took place on BF. Fonz was on his last stock, mid-high percent while the snake was at death range on his second stock. The snake dies and Fonz is probably around 80%. Then about 30 seconds of grenade camping and now the snakes at about 50 and Fonz is around mid 90s. He Dairs, reads the spot dodge and Gerudos. At this point, the snake back rolls and Fonz Dairs backwards, which if you are unaware, won't hit a snake out of a backroll. Good read, bad move :/ He told me afterward he didn't know what he was thinking, as he knows that it won't hit, he was just being stupid (like mad at himself) In the end Fonz gets Bair'd ftl :[ He still moves on though so its not like it matters.
I did this from my hotel room, but I'm gonna head back in a little. Expect another when I get back
UPDATE 1
Nothing!
Today was only melee and a little of Brawl+ at the end. Melee didn't finish so the beginning of tomorrow is gonna bring that to a close, and then it's all brawl from then on in, starting with doubles. I've yet to see Fonz, I don't know if he was there today, but he should definitely there tomorrow... I hope. As far I as I know, Fonz and myself are the only Ganons going, so hopefully we'll rep him well, though I think he isn't using him in the actual tournament.
Anyway, everyone in my pool plays MK, except one.. Excel_Zero. If you didn't know, Excel_Zero is arguably the best peach in America and I have NO IDEA WTF TO DO. I'm gonna get my *** kicked, but hopefully I can pull out the wins against the other guys. I'll try and see if Fonz can get on later and post about his pools if I find him, but for now all you guys have is me.

There's the link to the tournament's thread on SWF, so feel free to look.
This tournament is gonna be BIG. It's pretty much the Genesis for the east coast, and its also great because its located basically in the center of the Atlantic states. It's great for me since there really are no tournaments in or near DE, and now there is a massive one being held one state above me. I obviously plan to go
What I wanna know is, who is gonna represent Ganon here? I plan on taking him as well as Falco for whatever I can't get together with Ganon, but I don't want to be the only one =[
I'm really excited for this, and I'd be really happy to see some of you guys there too. They have a special deal with the hotel nearby, as well as transportation to and from the venue, making it a very smooth event all around.
So, who plans on coming?
