That was awesome

 

[soap]

ya one of the best run tournies I've been too.

I witnessed a string of 4-5 just amazing sets before I left. Starting with trail/lovage, unknown/s2j, dart/raynex

some inspirational stuff. Reminded me why I love melee.

New S2J fan here.

so how do you define a "national" then?

let me guess: a regional that's on the coast

I always thought it was popular consensus that 100+ entrants = a national.

And we did go over 100 entrants.

Results thread is being made right now, stay tuned.

Dude, those sets were just the beginning. I don't remember any sets that weren't competitive from the last couple hours or so. We knew coming in that there was no clear favorite and a handful of people could legitimately win the tourney, and that ended up being so true, which is awesome.

PS I owe Scythe $5 and Hindawg $10 for losing my bets to them, fffffffffuuuuuuu

PPS I think Dart owes me $5 cause we bet on whether s2j would place top 3

smym 12 had over 100

not a national

Having 100 people doesnt make a tournament national.
Having a tournament with 100+ ppl and every region represented + canada makes it national.
This was a small national tournament.

not a national

SMYM12 had one region represented, plus Darkrain as icing on the cake.

Don't you dare call this tourney "not a national"

Super regional girls, chill out

 

[SCOTU]

Yeah, I'm not sure why this wouldn't be considered a national. Both the number of entrants and the prize money is on tier with a national, plus, the other quality of a national is that there are several regions strongly represented, which there were.

Tons of people / Money + widespread representation = no question about it. It's a national.

Just because it isn't one of those high powered 200+ people tourneys with everyone and their brother going from europe and japan doesn't subtract from the national level qualities of this tournament.

Its like saying that flying from New York to Canada isn't an international flight because its not as long as New York to France.

 

[Vudujin]

That tourney was crazy good.

Thank you kindly, JuggleGuy and co.!!!

 

[Tope]

Small national seems the most appropriate.

I'm really impressed that s2j went so far after getting a semi early loss.

Can't wait to play him ^_^

 

[Master WGS]

Reps from outside US.

International? I think so.

If PA is considered east coast then it is by my standards.

 

[PGH Carroll]

PA is in that Atlantic north baby!
East coast!
