Anyway, it's the bi-weekly results that count. I agree for the not fighting thing, we don't want to destroy the newly revived Calgary scene.
739 posts, btw. Take that Chris and Brad.

lawls you miscounted
and yeah the bi-weeklies result are the actual ones, but even then you cant judge the results, look at how close we are, every time the results change.
edit: also, plus with the improvment you're making nitro, for the next bi-weeklie you'll move from almost last to like first if it keeps going like this.
or maybe if i just use my ice climbers XD

No, I posted in another topic after that post. =P
And yeah, I've been "counterpicking" out of the characters I use more. I used Link against YL and Marth instead of my Kirby.

I'd like to point out that the bi-weekly results don't count for anything either. This hasn't been going nearly long enough for anyone to develop any significant changes in their gameplay, nor do we have sufficient experience against a broad range of characters to accurately determine how we actually fair in steady competitive play.

I agree completely.
edit: I was just wondering something about the tourney. About what time do you start singles? and approximately what time did it end at the last one?
Because if I can go, I might only be there just for singles.

It starts at about 1, everything will be underway shortly thereafter. Depending on turnout and match outcomes, the singles can run from 2 to 4 hours or so I would say. The team tourny at the end is usually pretty fast.

hahahaha john only wants to show up for the thing he's certain he'll win, he doesnt wanna be there when he has a chance to lose.
but in all seriousness, yeah you cant judge the time, we usually get it going once everyones there, maybe a warmup round or two. then teams at the end.
which reminds me, are we still choosing teams? or are we gonna do random teams or ranking based teams? (i personally would think that the random would be best, so that everyone is no a team with everyone at different times, and that way its not always the same people if any one team is always winning)
although choosing teams would be interesting to try.

Jonny and Jin will go down as undefeated since JZ won't be around for the next one, which is truly unfortunate, for that is some old school Pro Impact sauce right there.
kithkin
Smash Champion
hm, sorry for not knowing this, but who's JZ?
Randall00
Propitious Plumber
Jon's initials are JZ, but he's moving off to Peachland for awhile, so we may not see him for a bit.
*Especially not the Pro Impact Players teams, which of course, the three of us reserve the right to change whenever we desire.
As I said, playing with a certain teammate on a regular basis is ultimately more beneficial on the whole. No team is set in stone*, of course, you can always try working with new people. It will likely take some time to determine who you are able to work best with anyhow.

Sorry if it came off as Complaining. >_> I'm was trying to get criticism, not demean you in any way.Randall00 said:Tell you what, if we capture it on camera, I'll upload a video of your absolute worst loss at the upcoming bi-weekly.Me @ other site said:
It's a great video in teh sense that it showed me a lot of my errors and helped my to eliminate them at the meetings at Levi's. I worked on my shorthops, and edgegame, along with the rolling habit. Plus, it's one of me winning, a rare breed.
But what will you do if I don't lose any matches? :o
But yeah, I think that would have been the video I requested, only because the swallowcides, and me vs Jake Break dancing competition in there somewhere.
Randall00
Propitious Plumber
Haha, no no, I'm justa jokin', don't worry about it. In fact, I encourage your approach to the videos.
nitro-blazer
Smash Lord
Too me, videos [of oneself] have 2 main uses.
1. To showcase your skill, technique, and maybe even some mindgames.
and
2. To allow self-reflection, and they give you the time to review and point out mistakes you may not have noticed while playing. Allowing you to get better.

If Calgary had to pick 2 panelists for an Alberta ranking, who would they be?
kithkin
Smash Champion
like two representatives of our best?
uhh the pro impact guys are best known and very good.
if its for best people, john could also be up there, but he hasnt played the pro impact guys.
*my opinions*
edit: but if its just like two people to talk about this type of thing(organize and all that, not actually play for top spots and whatnot), i'd say randall is definately one of them.
(this is from what i've seen)

Well, if John comes to the Bi-weekly, we'll see what happens there. I haven't seen Neil play, and I've heard Mich is good.
All in all, I'm not exactly sure yet.

Eh? I'll be there, I'll try my best to get there before 1, probably earlier if I can.
And Neil is better than me, he's also better at facing new people.
Randall00

Is Neil attending the bi-weekly as well? And did you manage to find a decent mode of transportation for getting here?

sorry for my lack of knowledge, but neils your friend john?

I don't think he is. Yeah, I'm just going to bus there.
Yeah we've been friends since I met him in high school, it's been about 3 years now.
We practiced off each other in ssbm since that time.

Alright, last time I didn't get to play Randall or Chris, so I'll need to play you guys sometime tomorrow.

Say, if anyone gets this before leaving for the bi-weekly this morning, would you be kind enough to pack a Gamecube and a spare copy of Smash? We had a minor catastrophe trying to locate enough copies after we sent Jon packing to British Columbia with one of each in hand.

Wii was fun. I'd say I did better overall.
If possible, may I request a video for upload? the one where I face John on DK64. Even though it was a loss, it was a good video.

heh taking the loss video is always a better choice.
but man did you improve alex, (even though i did see you slowly improve)
but i mean it used to be i'd 4 stock you easily, like easly easily, but now i actually have troubles and when randall posts the data, it will prove i lost to you.

Yeah. You pulled the upset on Levi, and I pulled the upset on you. I suppose it took me a little while to actually get a good style going. But now, I'm much more dominant wiht my Bairs.
Gotta love that Fence of Pain. COmbined with those Nitrocides I'm so well known for. >_>
Link provided just to show you all that yes. It actually exists.

Also, I'd like to request a video too, the finals, me vs Chad.

I really need to start sleeping before these things, so that way I don't have any johns later about why I lost. Sleep....

Yeah, but I can see why it would be an issue for you, with the night shift and all.
