HAHA, probably, usually if i see someone getting smashed, it motivates me to drink more than them.

EDIT: I'd just like to add to my previous post that if you would like to be picked up from somewhere, please give me at least 24 hours notice so i can organize it (just tell me that you need to be picked up from grand plaza etc). I don't want to receive a flurry of texts all at once asking to be picked up from different locations.

I would also appreciate it if you send me a text or smashboards post in advance confirming that you're coming just so i can work out numbers to cater for.

I can haz place to sleep? Sunnycoast piority bs?? Also a pick up from sunnybank would be nice XD

@the weekend thing: I don't care. it was my fault, I made a meal. I don't want to hear anymore about it.

@Bond Uni: Was pretty cool! Has definite potential! When they get their AC fixed, but it wasn't fatally hot. We should bring a couple of TVs though, some of theirs didn't work. Nice friendly atmosphere as Arrow said.
OH! Max Brenner chocolate. Could have died happy there.
Mexican was nice but didn't fill me enough.

@DORFmania:
Cal, learn Bus tech already. SIRIASLY.
Cricket sounds great Sea, we could do that before the main ganon event maybe?
Oh, let me know if your up for mid-week Melee, any day before 1pm, I tried to msg you but my phone is being a ****.

That's some great news Scott.

Let's hype this shizzle up with posters.

We also need a few general A3 (A2, A1?) posters to put up in Browns Plains Game Traders.

It'll be at the Jagera Arts Centre in South Brisbane (close to the convention center).

A ton of space for parking outside and a ton of space inside and it's a really cheap venue and it's very close to public transport.

Like, you could easily have a 70, 80, 100 person tournament inside.

I'm keen for some melee practise bob. Anytime during the week should be fine. You could come over to my place instead if you like? In case you're sick of me being over yours all the time.

Ok I have a question for all you smash players who also play SF4:

I've decided to take up also playing SF4 - I have it for ps3 atm - but I want to buy a stick pad thingy for the game, seeing as using the controller sucks and thus makes me rage.

I've heard there are different types you can buy and they vary in quality, so I want to know:
1. The best type of stick to buy / how much it will cost
2. Good places to buy them from

Thanks! I'm totally going to main Rufus toooooo.

Oh well. I guess he's just.. Different
1. Tournament edition by mad catz? i think it is. I dunno im using billys old hori that cost 50 and its working fine. TE can be 400.

2. Online You may be able to find a tekken stick bundled with tekken but that is as close as it gets.

PSN name right nao imo

Don't listen to Nick hes soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad

Best type of stick is probably the TE stick you can get one from the capcom us store for about $230 because shipping is heaps expensive

TE's are only the best because they're easy to custom.

It all depends on how you feel with the stick.

Either a HRAP 3 or a TE stick are the best atm.

As seaDORF previously stated, there’s going to be a Ganondorf only tournament (DORF OFF) this Saturday (13/03/10) at his house. Although this will just be a friendly meet, we’re going to treat the DORF OFF as if it were like any other smash tournament.

anyone interested should have a look at this thread - http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?p=9760732

here's a rundown of the tournament details:

LOCATION

seaDORF’s house (77-81 The Chase, Forestdale). For those of you who regularly attend nights at Bob’s house, it’s only about 5min down the road (keep going down Johnson Rd from Browns Plains until you reach Forestdale. Turn left at the lights into Paradise Rd, then right at the roundabout at the end of the road into Forestdale Dr, then left at the end of the Rd into The Chase, his house is at the end near a cul-de-sac) If you’re using public transport, unfortunately none goes directly to Forestdale. Your best option is to get a bus to Grand Plaza at Browns Plains and one of us can pick you up from there. Or if you can’t manage buses because you don’t live in Brisbane *cough* Cal, you can get a train to either Altandi or Banoon (Beenleigh line) and a pick up can be arranged. It would be preferable if people come in groups so we don’t have to spend all afternoon driving back and forth.

TIME & SETUP

We’ve decided to start things at 3.00pm, we’ll probably have some friendlies while everyone arrives. There’ll be at least 3 wii’s setup for the DORF OFF, people are encouraged to bring their own along with brawl and a TV if they can. Obviously the more people that come, the more DORF OFF set ups we’ll need and the more set ups we have, the more people can play and have the opportunity to set up and play other games (melee, etc) if they want. We don’t have a set finish time.

COST

Since seaDORF is a generous guy, he’s not charging any of you to enter his house. However, we’re going to have a pot for the DORF OFF. $10 entry, 60% payout for first, 30% and 10% for second and third respectively. If you’re coming, you must compete so if you haven’t already start honing your ganon skills, now would be a good time.

RESPECT

Like all other meets and tourneys, we have to treat the venue with respect especially since it’s a private residence. I’ve known Dan his whole life and he’s an easy going guy, just don’t leave his house in a burning heap and everything will be fine.

FUN

Unlike all other meets and tourneys, we’re hoping to make this more of just a ‘smash event’. That means drinking is by all means welcome, as is backyard cricket, pool and whatever else sounds like a good idea (seaDORF has a big backyard, tennis court and both varieties of pool) at the time. We’re hoping to have a BBQ dinner as well.

If you have any other questions feel free to post here or text either one of us:

seaDORF (Dan) - 0431 196 744
oldmanDORF (Adam) - 0431 548 043

we look forward to seeing a good turnout come Saturday!

I think the 544 goes to Forestdale.
Someone research, but I'm fairly confident that it does!

Pool sounds great, cricket sounds good, it all sounds good.
Must record this brilliance.



@Hotcats 10am-4pm on a Sunday. Slightly whack hours but hey, it'll do. :)

HRAP's aren't ****, they're not made by Mad Catz.

Hori buttons aren't **** either, they're just not as good as Sanwa buttons.

I bet if I had that TE it would be completely useless now. HRAP atleast stands up to my constant beatings.

Yeh, it does bob but i wouldn't recommend anyone catching it. I'm pretty sure it comes like once every hour. I'll just pick people up from grand plaza. There'll be no waiting or hassles then.

Uwah, do want a custom paint job.

Scott, J-Birds, I'll give one of you $10 to paint mine. Maybe Red or something. Oh! Yellow would be epic!

-Whats with you guys and splitting?
You think everything is banana!

-I think i heard from James that the 544 is every half hour, if people timed it welll...
BUT if you want to pick people up, :)

-Come to Hotcats Lachlan, ya spaka. It'll be pretty big I predict.
Next lansmash is April though i think.
Also come to DORF OFF. I'm sure we will have time for Melee Dorfness.

-Is Bond Uni still on Sunday? I want to go and follow it up with beach and follow it up with yummy noms and Max Brenner.
Ohhhhhhh yeaahhhhhhhhh.
Would be an amazing weekend if so.
