i was just planning to host it at my place.

there's only one TV at my place, too. but we only have 4 people rocking up so far (arrow, paff, one of my mates and myself). if more than just us decides to gather, then we'll have to look at trying to get someone to bring a TV, or maybe even relocate. note: if anyone else wants to host it, go for it; my place might not be the best but it's always on the table. the few blokes that are coming to the meet are fine with my place i assume, but yeah, no one hesitate to suggest a suitable alternative if you have one. otherwise i'm happy to host it.


vyse i'd love to help organise the brisbane tourneys, but i'll have to refrain from getting involved for at least four weeks until i'm done with uni. as soon as the semester is over i'll have alot of time on my hands to help out then.





EDIT: whoa wait up i only just checked into the other fresh QLD thread.

scrubs your place sounds easy to get to. and arrow if you got several TVs, your place sounds like the way to go, if you're cool with it of course.

As for the date of that meeting, i was suggesting the 25th of october a moment ago, but paff did you want to hold it sooner? and if arrow if you host it, you should put forward a time you think is best.


scrubs you're already in a crew, right?

Ok......

Everyone is welcome tuesdays.... I will post on the weekend before the tuesday whether it is on or not

I can see next week being on but after that I have exams so it depends on how my study is going.

Brawl or Melee doesn't matter, depends on who shows up

To get to my house you take the 444 from the city (leaves from the new king george square bus thingo) direction Moggil get off at Alkira like Zac sad about 3 stops after indooroopilly once you see the Shell servo press the bell

Tech is a melee crew

So if anyone one wants me to be in there brawl crew I am available... So is King Kong

I don't think I should be in Ward as that would be a bit broken

Agree with the stages

And I definitely want to come to the STD it just depends on exams (anyone up for it being a tourney??)

And macca I would also like to come to your meet depending on what day its on

Buy us gifts, Grug. :D

I don't think we'll have a Brisbane crew consisting of any of us (Zac, myself, Bryce, Andy, Toai)... and I don't know about Josh, I don't see him, but he comes around to yours doesn't he, Ben? Otherwise yeah, only Ben and Josh so far, and for all the new people that come in.

Fair enough with the bi-monthlies, one in Brisbane the other in GC or something. Seems fair, if more people in Brisbane start showing up.

And oh, that's alright, then, seeing as if you didn't want to host anything you can just call it off. Hott.

MaCa where do you live? I know I should PM but it's easier if I just ask you here and for everyone to know. I mean suburb, not address, by the way. XD
Why is it that I get the feeling Paff and MaCa are somehow connected in some way.

Anthony don't you think you should update the first post with details of us or something? At least our names and e-mails/mobiles/suburbs?

@stages:
First off, I'm mostly a casual player, so I realize that I'm by no means a master of stage-judging. However:
1. Luigi's Mansion seems ban-worthy. It's got relatively large solid-roofed areas on the bottom floor and is large-enough to allow for ridiculous stalling.
2. Jungle Japes strikes me as counterpick-worthy. Unless the side platforms are ridiculous for camping with certain characters or something, I really don't see what makes it bannable.
3. I haven't heard any mention of any idea like this before, so it's probably _really_ terrible, but: would Spear Pillar by any chance be counterpick-worthy if use of the lower area were banned? As in, if you touch the lower floor, or grab its ledges, you're required to forfeit your current stock? I just really like the level aside from the bottom area, and that seems like the main part that hoses serious play. The main issue I can see is enforceability of such a rule, I guess. And then there's the reverse-control shenanigans' questionableness in a tournament, but really that's just hardcore.

@crews:
MaCa, MaCa's friend, Arrow, Scrubs, and me would make five people for a Brawl crew. I'm fine with meeting at whoever's place, although if it does end up with five of us we should probably try for having two TV/Wii setups.

Also, I'd thought we were talking about meeting for crew stuff two weekends from now, which'd be saturday the 18th and sunday the 19th. But if the 25th is better for everyone, it's fine with me of course.

On to stages Jungle **** should be a counter but whats the Problem with Pirate Ship? Counter pick for sure. And Luigi mansion should only be banned for Pit kinda like DeDeDe Rule. Nick ***** to hard with pit on that level

http://www.smashboards.com/showpost.php?p=5518526&postcount=367

The QBB stage list is in the tournament thread OP which is in my sig.

My opinion

@Paff and other stages on topic:
Green Hill (Sonic Stage) - Allowed, but Dedede Banned. Counter Pick.
Luigi's Mansion - Allowed. Nick's good on that stage, deal with it. Counter Pick.
Jungle Japes - Counter Pick

@Stages IMO and their placement:
Pokemon Stadium 2 - Banned.
Corneria & Yoshi's Island Pipes - Counter Pick
Onett - Not sure - Counter Pick?

Caotic's opinion and after seeing through QBB, we do need to revise the stage list. I have more to say, but I'm at work atm.

Redcliffe II Time Table:

10am to 3pm: Friendlies
3pm to 5pm: Brawl Doubles
5pm to 7pm: Dinner Break
7pm to 9pm: Brawl Singles
9pm to 11pm: Draft Crew Battle/Round Robin
11pm to 1am: Melee Singles
1am onwards: Friendlies, NO SLEEP

For the tournaments we could do Swiss or straight out double elim.
Not both, since there won't be THAT many people to justify it.

Says the guy who fell asleep.

All you need is like one hour sleep before 12 - 1ish and you'll be fine the rest of the night.

I vote Swiss - everyone gets to play against more people, and it gives a better idea of how everyone fares against each other.

Nah, Smash + caffeine are enough to keep you going until noon.

Meh, if people want to start earlier on the night, then we can.
Since it's an all nighter, we can be as lax as we want. I'm guessing people will want to take their time with Dinner and whatever. I guess we'll take it as it comes.

There is a Jetstar sale on right now with many flights (Avalon) MEL-SYD and (Gold Coast) OOL-SYD $49 one way. From (Brisbane) BNE-SYD is $59 one way.

QUEENSLAND AND VICTORIAN SMASHERS BUY TIX NOW FOR A ROUNDTRIP OF $98
Who's going to 'Don't Come'? (Or not coming, you know)

I'm pretty sure I will be if my parents don't object to me going to Sydney for a couple of days. Ryan will be too.

Jesus, $100 that's like cheaper than the fuel to buy when we drove down. XD
Well not rly, but it's quicker at least.
I would go. :D But as you all know I'm a poor, POOR, LAZY child. c:

By dinner break he ACTUALLY meant 'quality time'. d:
And did Anthony just PROVE my point more by saying:
"We'll take it how it comes."
Holy mother of jesus codge my mind is spinning with homosexual thoughts lately.
Fkin hell.

Wow, Booker for a WHOLE day.
Sheesh, I'm winning that for sure.
Mmm... You ok going bareback, Booker? <3
GAH!

Lul indeed it is the best crew, but we all cbf.

True, Michael... ORRR you could sleep A LOT MORE before going so you're MORE awake. =]
More time spent doing other things... d; d;d;d; ;d; ;d; d; ;d ;d;d;

Edit:

Pretty sure that makes me a noob too, Booker, I've no idea. XD

i live in kelvin grove.

but like i said, i only got 1 TV (which ain't a huge one either), scrubs and sirias if you two come then we'll have to look into someone bringing another TV. if everyone doesn't mind coming around mine then yeah lets do it. 25th october is the desired date for a first meet

scrubs it would probably be on a saturday but as the uni holidays are getting close there's alot more days that are possible.

Noob Question here... how does Starter/Counter work?
When the first match of any given set is played, a random stage from the 'starter' list is chosen.

When you lose a match is when you may pick from either the counter pick or starter list as your counter pick stage.

Oh, well what I mean is, that those in the hybrid stage tiers (starter/counter and counter/banned) need to be sorted out. They are in those hybrid tiers because they could be either one or the other, and it's up to us to figure out where they go.

So from this:

Starter
Battlefield
Final Destination
Smashville
Yoshi's Island

Starter/Counter
Castle Siege
Delfino
Halberd
Lylat Cruise
Pokémon Stadium 1 (Starter)
It becomes this:

Starter
Battlefield
Final Destination
Smashville
Yoshi's Island
Pokémon Stadium 1

Counter
Castle Siege
Delfino
Halberd
Lylat Cruise
The way I did it before was just so it was easier for you to compare. Kinda.

In That case then i believe

Delfino
PKM S1
should both added to the starters.
Lylat Cruise isnt to bad the background is ****in annoying and the Ship tilting can really **** your jumps up sometimes and because of that it should be regarded the same as Frigate Orpheon.

Counter/Banned
Green Greens
Mario Circuit
Onett
Port Town Aero Dive
Skyworld
^^ Ban Mario Circuit Port Town(even though the music pwns) and Skyworld. Green Green and Onett i believe can be counters for sure.
But this is my thoughts anyway.

And yeah Luigi Mansion is Nick Banned!!!!!!!! =p
Also i seen Nick **** MK with Link on Rainbow Cruise so thats Nick banned as well

My votes on stages:





Starter/Counter

Castle Siege
- counter
- unless Delfino is starter, in which case starter

Delfino
- counter
- unless Castle Siege is starter, in which case starter

Halberd
- counter
- unless Lylat Cruise is starter, in which case starter

Lylat Cruise
- counter
- unless Halberd is starter, in which case starter

Pokémon Stadium 1
- starter





Counter/Banned

Green Greens
- counter

Mario Circuit
- banned
- only because I really dislike this stage, if anyone has any good reasons for it to be counter that's fine

Onett
- either way

Port Town Aero Dive
- counter
- unless everyone thinks its periodic lack of grabbable edges would hose Olimar and Ivysaur too much, in which case banned

Skyworld
- either way

When's the Redcliffe tourney/friendly/Kaslovegropefest without Kas?

I'd look, but I can't be ****ed.

Just so I know so I can get work off.

EDIT: Nevermind I looked.

This calls for epic in the car car trip with Doug. And camera.

Except less getting lost and more putting vids up.
