oh **** I've been lurking for like 5 years then stopped altogether in 2010 then today I wake up and remember my childhood and smash, so I proceed to follow smashboards on twitter, next thing I know MOTHER*******KEN is back in town. **** me for living in south america, I will be watching the **** out of this tournament on stream. O god yes !! HYPE HYPE HYPE (nobody in my home understands why suddenly I'm running in circles, and yes thank good I've used the same username/password for everything since for ever)

I was lucky enough to not be around anyone when I did my victory dance at the house.

 

[thechunkylover]

I JUST CAN'T TAKE IT THIS TOURNAMENT IS TOO HYPE I... I...

 

[cannedbread]

this has been a good year for smash

 

[GimR]

Sooo. This is like a streamers dream come true lol

 

[soap]

Unfortunately Stab is picking 3000 people up in the morning, and both Sung and my car are filled with equipment...we really can't fit anything more in our cars and we don't have time to rent a truck or something.

If ANYONE wants to help out for this, they'll have my eternal gratitude.

I actually rented a car to just tour around a bit today, but I can go get some tvs if it's not ridiculously far from glendale/pasadena

 

[clowsui]

mike lives 25 min away according to google maps

assuming his fb location is right ofc

 

[SUNG666]

32? I think you misheard, I want at least 40.

//edit// If yall want to play friendlies then bring freakin setups. I don't want to have to say NO FRIENDLIES at ANY point of the tournament EXCEPT our announcements and crews (although we'll have some open for those of yall who absolutely hate everything good in this world). WE NEED SETUPS. SETUPS SETUPS SETUPS!
Wha I'm looking at you, bring both of your TVs. AND FOR THOSE BRINGING SETUPS COME AT 10:30AM SHARP

FOLLOW THE MAP PLEASE I don't want to have five thousand texts coming to me. If you can't figure out the map THEN call me or w/e.

SETUPS AND DON'T BE LATE!

 

[Vixen]

we are bringing a tv and I think 2-3 cubes and wiis

 

[ComboFest]

sung, it's not gonna happen.
Gotta use that reverse psychology

 

[clowsui]

you need 32 minimum (1:4 ratio) to run effeciently


40 is optimal tho

 

[TheCrimsonBlur]

I actually rented a car to just tour around a bit today, but I can go get some tvs if it's not ridiculously far from glendale/pasadena

Nah we figured it out dude. I'm bringing like 7 TVs in my little Toyota lololol

THIS MEANS THAT WE NEED GAMECUBES MORE THAN ANYTHING. IF YOU HAVE EXTRA CUBES, BRING EM.

 

[Shadow Huan]

@ Ken: just be ready, the metagame has changed quite a bit while you were gone (well singles anyways), the best player in my old crew used to be an MLG player and was surprised when he got back into it last year.

although anything recorded with ken in it will give me a reason to actually watch a melee match again lol, wanna see them old school mindgames!

will be awaiting videos

 

[TheCrimsonBlur]

Ken is entering singles btw.

So is his brother, Manacloud. Mana needs a teammate. I think I'll give him Dendy.

I have to add Vish, HugQ, Manacloud, Ken, Renzio, and Shadydeals (new player!) into singles pools. Plus I have to make doubles bracket.

Imma gonna be up aaaaaalllll night. And I've never been happier :D

 

[LLDL]

U da bes mayne. U deed it.

 

[Strain]

I will definitely be bringing my gamecube if that's the case Crimson.

Also, if anyone has a laptop they can bring I have capturing equipment and we can like combine to make a recording setup.

Also, still need a teams partner >.<

 

[Vingazi]

Setups

MrE223 and pdub coming up from claremont. So hype to see Ken in action, he's the reason I play marth. We'll bring some cubes with us (probably like 2?). Thanks for putting this together, Crimson!

 

[Doser]

Does anyone know when we should expect the stream to be up tomorrow?

 

[SUNG666]

12 am at the latest most likely 11:30am

//edit// oops i meant 12 pm

 

[TheCrimsonBlur]

Also, still need a teams partner >.<

I'm just pairing up the remaining people.

Dendy + Manacloud
jpeg + Strain
Shepherd + jaVus

is how I'm doing it.

 

[Habefiet]

12 am at the latest most likely 11:30am

That's Pacific time, right?

 

[machinegungeek]

12 am at the latest most likely 11:30am

At midnight, lol.

Also, anyone commentating on a Ken match;

you must refer to him only as the "Asian Sensation."

That old MLG commentary is the best.

 

[Selodin]

just turned my vague interest in this stream into massive hype, hope the event runs smoothly good luck cali

 

[Construct]

Holy **** I don't think I've ever been this hyped for a stream
****ing ken man

 

[manacloud1]

eh

whos dendy? also ill probably be testing a game im in a midst of balancing. Can someone bring two fight sticks usb or psx.

 

[Hylian]

Pretty hyped and glad I have work off tomorrow to watch the stream .

 

[TheCrimsonBlur]

whos dendy?

The best Puff in Socal and one of the better players overall.

You're getting a great teammate lol

 

[TheCrimsonBlur]

READ THIS

VIOLENCE's flight got delayed...to tomorrow. He will be arriving at LAX at 9:45. Right now there is no one that can give him a ride. Hes like the nicest guy ever, someone please help him out!

 

[Rickety]

Ken, you're coming to the tournament, after all?
Hooray! I'm so happy!

I can't wait to see you two there, it's been too long since we last hung out!
It's almost been an entire month! Hee! <3

I think I remember playing you at Mio's oxnard ranbats

wanna team? I'm not that good, but I don't suck entirely lol

 

[Strain]

Cho, on the last page Crimson teamed up the remaining people that didn't have partners and put me with jpeg. Although I have seen you play before, so I would slightly lean towards teaming with you.

Nawnscents also PM'd me saying his teammate flaked on him.

so we could do:
Me + Cho
jpeg + Nawnscents

if everyone's chill with that? or just team cho with nawnscents lol idc much either way

I'm not changing it anymore lolol

 

[Archangel]

Ken is really showing up this time? I've heard Ken was entering since Genesis 1 and so far I've yet to see him but people are saying it's official this time. I look forward to seeing how he does in 2012/13's smash scene. I hope he's practiced up for this. Top 5? is that too much? Top 10...yeah top 10 is safe. Ken for top 10?..yeah I'm betting that **** it.

 

[princess kitty]

If you guys (TO's) come pick them up AND promise to drop them off on Sunday, i can offer an addition 5-6 tv's, meaning i can bring ten.

It would likely need to be picked up tomorrow morning or late tonight (After 12)

nevermind!!!!
we're picking up violence instead
sowwy

 

[Cherished Doll]

Cant believe im missing this
