Definitely yes!
How were the monitors?

 

[Hellsend]

Definitely yes!
How were the monitors?

The monitors were fine for my Wii but the gamecubes weren't doing too well.
And hey 5th place! Not too shabby

 

[Splice]

if a wii is running melee, and a gamecube is running melee, what difference does that make to the monitors?

 

[Hellsend]

if a wii is running melee, and a gamecube is running melee, what difference does that make to the monitors?

I have no idea, that's just what I noticed. Same monitor model, but the gamecube seemed to be running the game at a lower resolution. Also, I heard someone say the delay was worse on their set up than on mine, and they were using a gamecube.

 

[Juci]

monitors were pretty good, but yeah some setups were slightly different from others. all playable though.

 

[A Dumb Monkee]

Monitors were fine. I feel like some setups ran smoother than others but that could have been due to the whole 60hz- 50hz option most new players are unaware of.

Honestly though, I had no johns about the monitors and they are definitely good enough for tournaments.

 

[Splice]

Oh man I'd love if some of you guys were playing on 50hz and didn't realise it.
50hz is Fsmash crew home territory

alrighty, the facebook event for the second tournament is up!

https://www.facebook.com/events/523974961058195/

so you can enter either the brawl or melee comp.. or both. melee will be 32 man, brawl will be 16 man.
If you don't want to enter the comp, come along anyway and play some friendlies or spectate.
should be dope

 

[ndowner]

the next tourney is on friday (30/5). come down and play some friendlies or spectate or whatevs. the more people the better ))

 

[dreadtech]

I'll be down there at 6-6:30, Would you guys like me to still bring a cube and melee?

 

[PrettyCoolGuy]

Yes. Can at least be used for friendlies

 

[Skeletom]

Hyped for melee tonight :D

 

[Bowser D.X]

Just to be sure, the location is off Queensberry St right? In Carlton?

 

[Dekar289]

[Redact]

1 dekar
2 redact
3 tom
4 splice
5th redx/sebby

not sure about the rest

please correct me if im wrong

also just to let people know i 3-0d dekar in winners what a chump (whatever he tells you he didnt 3-0 me from losers) but then lost to him 3-2 in grand finals

 

[Hobs_]

Finals were fun to watch. Thanks for putting the tournament on.

 

[Redact]

Yeah had to make it a show and dekar is called the entertainer for a good reason

 

[Dekar289]

shoutouts to billy for playing super smart and generally outplaying me hard, much confidence, such intelligent
shoutouts to skeletom for comboing me nicely but not edgeguarding well enough
shoutouts to redact for finding my old controller (90% sure!)

cody's a bit scary too, hope he doesn't get more technical and/or better at reads, can't even really switch to peach against samus so I'd be pretty boned
ahh whatever I'll just rig bracket so we don't ever verse

 

[Dekar289]

Annnnnnnnd I can't go due to my lifts being impossible to work with. Sorry.

good to hear you're lifting anyway

 

[ndowner]

Thanks to all of you for coming, bringing setups and making it such a good night, I'm so happy that this is becoming a thing. The turnout and level of skill was just awesome to see.
Brawl was a bit of a fart, so I don't think I'll include a brawl tourney in the near future, however the next will include 32 man Melee and 32 man Project M.

Here's the event: https://www.facebook.com/events/1410560462563096/

I'm thinking i'll book 2 rooms for the next one. There are two rooms adjacent to one another with a connecting door, so Melee can happen in one and Project M in the other.
You can enter both tourneys this time, however those entering only 1 will get priority. (for example, if the bracket fills and someone wants to enter PM only, the last person to enter both that prefers to be in melee will give up their PM place)

If this 2 rooms deal goes ahead I'll need someone (or a few people) to help out with organising, money collecting and all that jazz. If you're happy to help let me know )))))

They're probably not on here but shoutouts to the guys from RMIT i got talking to.

Especially Josiah and the dude with the bridge piercing (forgot your name, sorry) who somehow, after only a month of playing, knows the frame differences between fox and falco's jump.

 

[ndowner]

Thanks to everyone that came, the amount of people was incredible!

a BIG thanks to Phil volunteering as TO and helping run the event, u da best

we ended up having more setups than we could comfortably fit which is awesome which is pretty dope

Congratualtions to SD, Dekar and Redact for placing 1st 2nd 3rd respectively in the melee pro bracket

[Meredy]

Thanks for hosting, had a great time and had some of the best sets I've ever had.

@ PrettyCoolGuy : Holy. ****. GG man, single best set of my life.

Tom Duncan: For my first Peach ditto, it sure was intense. I mean, legit sweat-dripping-off-my-face intense. I thought I was screwed after game 2.

@ Hobs_ : First time we got to play in tournament. You're getting good man, just need to stop with the pill spamming.

@Jei Jei: Wrecked me again. I just can't handle that Yoshi.

@ The 4 sheiks I fought in tournament, stop playing Sheik and let me have some freaking variety ffs.
