Official [QLD] Tournament & General Thread: Next Event - UQ Smash 15 - 19/12/15

7-8 December?

If I can get the money I might come up. I'd be keen to spread the P:M if I came too.

Hey, was looking at travelling a bit this summer so am pretty keen to come to this. Will just look over my work dates before booking flights but things should be good.

About accommodation, I saw this mentioned a few pages back:

Travelodge Motel, Upper Mt Gravatt, Garden City IIRC. I think we usually pay $300 from Friday to Sunday. So that's $75 per person. I'm willing to put in a bit more if someone can't quite meet that, but as I said, I think it'd be really cool to have us all in the one place for once and have something actually organized. If people don't want to do it though, that's fine. It's just an idea.

Is it worth looking into sharing a room here with others?
Or when the time comes shall I humbly ask around for housing offers.
Thanks guys

I've put in for leave, keen to come up and play some Melee!!
E: Leave confirmed :D just gotta book flights

Best people to talk to about bunking at the travel lodge are Jesmo & Aero. They can help you organise a room with them etc. They would know the owners & employees at that travel lodge like they were family by now.

How many Brawl players have set ups with Project M? A tourney for it would be cool, especially if the new build with Mewtwo is released by then.

 

[Jesmo]

Well, sadly I probably won't be attending this, as much as I was looking forward to it. It happens to land on my 18'th birthday and I'm pretty sure my family wants to spend it with me.

A bit disappointing since I was really, really looking to this. I've been practicing Brawl and Melee quite a bit. Oh well, next time I suppose. :/

Jezmo was looking forward to some offline friendlies! Will have to wait until next time I guess.

 

[smopup]

I'm just glad to hear Jesmo's practicing Melee. Keep it up dude, looking forward to playing you in it.

 

[Karnu]

More Melee in QLD

YAY!

I look forward to playing more Puppy!

 

[Luco]

The longer I stay the more money I'll need to ask for and I don't really feel like being that guy so I'm taking the absolute cheapest way outta this thank you. =)

Golly, how long is the train ride for you wave?? @.@

 

[CaLibUr_1337]

If I can get time off work I might go.

 

[Hughie]

I want to go.
I probably can't, BUT THERE'S THE POSSIBILITY. I'm pretty sure if I go up for a week or something around then I can go.

If you're willing to travel an hour north of Brisbane. You're welcome to stay at mine for a week.

 

[dean.]

wanna team a'? (or is tibor secretly coming or something)

 

[Karnu]

Atilla, team with me!

We'll be like Trela and Ally!

 

[Attila_]

tibor is... thinking lol

i'll let you know when he decides.

 

[PaulieProcket]

This looks really fun, I think I want to come to up to it. So I'm from Sydney, what's the general transport method people are taking up? Also I'd have to look into housing or w/e for the weekend, but if transport can be sorted out I think housing shouldn't be too much of a worry I suppose, I guess I'm just wondering how anyone from around Sydney is going up there, it'd be cool to try and tag along or something, thanks

Hey guys Im kinda new to competitive ssb, havnt played it in years but I would love to give it ago
I have a few questions regarding the comp that hopefully someone might be able to answer.

How big Is Super Smash Bros in Aus?
Is this being run by LanSmash?
Is their any requirements for playing? eg bring controller/Console?
I noticed their arnt many Melee players on the list? last time I checked melee is better? Although iv been
out of the scene in ages.
Is there a time limit to register?

Sorry for the all questions
Thanks

 

[Karnu]

The scene is meh

LANsmash is running it

Melee is dead here but some are trying to get it going

You have until the 5th of December (could you add that in, Matt?) to register in the sign up thread

Bring your own controller and bringing a TV and a wii+game helps sooo much!

 

[smopup]

Pretty great to see this attracting some new players to the scene. =)

You have until the 5th of November (could you add that in, Matt?) to register in the sign up thread

Surely you mean December 5 instead?

 

[Karnu]

Now how did I make it that? I must of had the gelding show in my mind then >.>

I'll edit my post!

 

[Pantsmann]

attendance is low because nobody plays. nobody plays because attendance is low. i blame global warming and the government.

 

[Karnu]

If you attended then you'd be contributing to numbers, and more numbers means more people will take interest. I blame the lack of entries for having such small numbers. We really need to spread the word and not just hope and sit and wait for people to join!


Banner is up!

 

[J-Birds]

ahh the gelding show how could you forget

last time I checked melee is better?

you are correct
i like this guy

the majority of qld melee players have played for for like a million years and aren't motivated anymore
and any young blood is corrupted by brawl
:C

Hahaha yea.. I never really got a chance to play Melee competitive because of my age at the time (now18)
Would love to play melee, Anyone who played it when it came out can understand how much better it is

 

[Karnu]

I play both games but I do understand why people like Melee more.

I haven't played any melee or Brawl in a while but it felt like Brawl was really slow and hard to combo people.

 

[Remastered]

People need to get out of the mindset that brawl isn't a technical game. At top level, and I mean beyond what Australia is currently capable of anywhere in the country, brawl is insanely tech heavy and an extremely deep game.

Apollo, Attila and Ross (DoMo) will be staying with me for this coming tournament, and entering brawl. Plenty of good players attending, so players should be practicing now as much as they can.

biggest tournament in aus history? book your flights
don't mean to tae any steam away from santasmash, just wanna make sure ya'll are aware of this asap!

 

[Darkwing SykeDuk]

brawl is weak technically compared to melee

no one is saying brawl lacks any tech skill, it just has a different type of tech compared to melee

like street fighter tech
or marvel tech
or pokemon tech......

 

[S.D]

Putting on pants takes more tech

What are people doing in the days leading up to this? Anything happening?

 

[Remastered]

I'm looking to take time off during the week prior. Happy to make this a Wed-Sun kind of event.

 

[Karnu]

I'm doing pony stuff

 

[Remastered]

Dean are you confirmed for this event? I can arrange housing with Vyse if you so desire? As far as I know he isn't housing anybody yet.
