I have no problem having a few non-ASSAULT members on for the Rocky crew battle, as it looks like we may need the numbers.

What a pro Ike.

Vermy is your crew going to be low tiers or high tiers? If it's going to be ASSAULT it should be low tiers but... How many people more does ASSAULT need?

@Chris - I hate Terran. Against the Zerg, Irradiate is just... so annoying </3 ... Especially with mass Mutalisks :( I like the music though. I can play it on Guitar! Which brings us back to the Guitarists vs Drummers crew battle, hmm?

Here's my decision.

I am a Victorian first, and Leader of ASSAULT second.
I will select my best troops and fill in whom I think will get the job done well.

The name ASSAULT may stand, but we won't have mercy by just staying low tier. Crush the opposition. At this point in time, my verdict is half of the crew (myself included) to be true ASSAULT soldiers, and the other half the reserves from NSW vs VIC as well as 1 or 2 of my own personal choices.

Vermy has spoken.

Let Connor be in the crew.
If Connor doesn't get tired of spamming Bair for the whole match... He'll 3 stock everyone except Chris.

Stop fighitn' fellers, you all can have me!

Only bad thing about Zerg is the matches on Youtube aren't epic and end in like 6 minutes coz Jaedong just pwns everyone GG

C-Dog: Unfortunately, they mentioned earlier they are unable to bring TVs, because they are staying in Sunbury and are taking V-Lines instead of driving.

Having said that I hope I'm wrong and they bring them, because we need it now more than ever. Guess how many TV's we need for 100 people :)

so the lineup so far for the all-star crew is probably

Vash
Monkeybear
Blackshadow <-highly recommend
Chris (who's in 2 crews)

Who else wants to be in the all-star lineup? This is going to be such a hax team!! If there is time it would be sweet if the two winning crews fought each other for crew supremacy .

Protoss has reavers...the best unit in the game obviously. Bisu is too good.

Mic needs to commentate for matches :D

When I get back from Japan I can't wait to see the results and some epic videos
Preferably not for major matches, but I wouldn't say no to commentating during pools or whatever.

Commentating is why I go to smash events.

Does anyone have good recording **** and mics apart from Shaya though?

Imagine S.D + Dekar on commentary

Tanman has recording stuff. I imagine one set of equipment could go with Brawl and one with Melee :3

So many ****ing one liners...
Pretty much CBF posting now.

But...

You filthy dirty ****s.
Trying to claim Chris like that.
When and where did he get good at, hmmm?
****s.

And, so this is what we've supposed to be excited about for 6 months?
Glad I haven't made any concrete plans still.
You filthy dirty ****s.
Trying to claim Jezmo like that.
When and where did he get good at, hmmm?
****s.

He only goes to like 3-4 tournies a year there. I'd say you're a hypocrite here. ;)

Note: They are actually asterixis and not curse words. <_<

jezmo has only gone to qld tourneys as far as I'm aware,
the only other place would be wifi and we all know my opinion on that.

qld really is getting the short end of the stick here, even canberra has it better, whats up with that.

but if you dont come bob, there will be a very distinct lack of 64 games like snowboard kids :(

EDIT 1: Oh yeah, theres still some QLDers that can come. But knowing there is nothing for them like that, could sway them to the not going category. We ain't going to be in another crew battles while our friends, brothers, comrades are playing in the Melee crews, we support each other like that.

EDIT 2: Try moving the conversation foward hmm? When did I say Jezmo was QLD, although he has only gone to QLD tournys if I'm not mistaken. Either way hes in the anti-Vic crew.
Why haven't you guys organized anything for 6 months? Not making concrete plans has pretty much led to the current situation for you guys, which is ironic. If people are make late flight plans, how are we supposed to 'plan' for it?

I can't make a QLD crew for you guys if that's what you're wanting - that's something your own state needs the initiative for. However, I am able to open and very happy to match and negotiate any ambitions QLD has about crews and what it wants out of it.

From what I gather so far, QLD is happy to play in a combined team with SA, WA and company, from which QLD constitutes the majority.

We have a spare 2 hour block after Melee crews? I can move Brawl VIC2 vs All-Stars there as appropriate. What I am concerned about is the late running time. Are people going to sit through 3 hours of crews up to 10pm - 11pm? I'm not sure (I know the majority of the hardcore players will stay). There's always a fresh Sunday morning option, but it'll need slight timetable re-jigging, and extra time commitments from people, which is slightly outside of the existing scope.

I welcome you to discuss your options with me instead of just complaining about it. I prefer to organize and discuss instead.

Chris is from both regions, he wants to represent both and I can understand that. Let it go.

Wah-mah-god that took the entire train ride to work to read all of that. That's 35 minutes.
Chris when you become a famous doctor can you figure out way to make it possible for me to actually have your babies? Dead serious.

Theres plenty of room in the all-start lineup for QLDers especially for brawl because Monkeybear, blackshadow and I are terrible at brawl. The majority of both crews will most likely be QLDers. Who wants to be a part of either crew?

Mmm I dunno, I don't think there will be as much excitement after the first Brawl and Melee Crew battles. Hype for crew battles tend to die down real quick if theirs too much of them and if they don't have their top players in it (Happened @ Lansmash in QLD once) I'd much rather vs/watch VIC's Top players rather then their 2nd bunch of "Top players" vs'ing other Top players.

If we did form a second ASC, most of those players would be from QLD yes? but some of them aren't high up in (or on) the Power rankings, leading to the lack of maximum **** potential. I dunno how much top players the other states have to fill the spots though.

The only thing I'm excited for now is SQUAT crew battles =)

TBH, I'd think the trip and the experience of being there would be better than getting into a crew battle. QLD really isn't represented at this tournament, and it has shown with the crew lineup. Not going just because we didn't get a Brawl crew battle is a pretty poor excuse imo.

****, I'll probably barely play any Smash compared to other games.

It's good to return home though, I haven't been to Vic since Year 2, and I can barely remember that time. And that was out in the sticks.

I'm not not going to Rocky cause I'm not in a crew battle =P it's just would've been something cool that adds on to the experience of going down there. Don't worry, I'm sure I'll still have a smashing (*ba dum dum chi*) time down there =)

This.

Rocky isn't just crew battles, nor is it just a smash tournament - it's an EXPERIENCE - Like Jimmy Hendrix.

If people are seriously worried about crew battles to the point of not attending just remember its only one aspect of the event...

Edit: And come on, who wants to miss Australia's biggest ever tourney...

You should prob stop playing and start focusing on Brawl if you want any kind of chance at Rocky.

Oh I went there!

But on a serious note lol, anyone know of anything interesting to do or see in Melb on the Monday? I'll prolly have time to kill before I head home.
