What do you guys think of the idea of me commentating at Shadowloo Showdown for Smash. I know what I am saying, I never miss the key moments and you KNOW I can bring the hype and motivation to the crowd. What do you guys think.

Sweet man. How much you want to put up. I'll show you the awesomeness that is my Captain Falcon.

 

[Bowser D.X]

Definitely not going.

I think that's a terrible idea please do not go within 10cm of a mic during your time at this tournament.
My utmost gratitude to you for your ability to follow this one instruction.

What is it that you do not like about me that makes you say this. In fact what is your assumption to make this statement. Please answer honestly, I can take criticism.

 

[Nido]

When does registration end?

 

[SurPr15e]

Registration ends on midnight on the 6th of October.

 

[Tin Man]

Registered and got my train ticket .

It never told me where I can put my team mate however. Oh well, hope this won't be an issue...

Also, Attila, please respond to my Facebook messages. They are extremely important questions!

 

[Shaya]

I think the noticeable thing to point out is that for most microphones and whatnot you see, 10cm distance is the minimum distance anyone should be from one.
Perhaps Billy is the ultimate tester of worthiness.

 

[Jamwa]

Kevin Joey me lesko commentate

 

[Splice]

Nothing gets past you Shaya ;D

Kevin Joey me lesko commentate

There ain't no Joey if there ain't me, I won't have it!

 

[Attila_]

Melee commentators: SD, billy, Dekar, Unny?

Brawl commentators: Attila, shaya, billy, dean?

Depends on who's in finals. What do people think?

 

[pikmin.org]

I wouldn't mind commentating if at all possible. Could I commentate some of the pools/early bracket games (I understand that people with experience of the scene would be preferable for finals, especially in knowing player history etc.)?

 

[dean.]

brawl commentator: Joey
melee commentator: Joey

you know it makes sense

 

[Tin Man]

What rounds are available for commentary anyway? Considering that the top 4 will play on stream, does that mean only Winners Finals, Losers Semis, Losers Finals, and Grand Finals will be available for commentary?

And I assume that someone who's in the top 4 wouldn't be able to commentate?

 

[pikmin.org]

Oh, so non top-4 matches aren't streamed?

 

[dean.]

I'll bring my setup (no stream), you can commentate on that.

Also Sebby for Brawl commentator.

 

[CaLibUr_1337]

I fly down on Tuesday and will be in Melbourne for a whole week and I'm keen to play heaps of Melee with everyone Who's free during the week?

 

[Bu$]

I'm pretty keen to get my commentate on some matches. I can get pretty hype and i also have commentated on ACL halo stuff back in the day.

 

[SHuVL-Smash]

Does anyone know if there is a schedule up for ss?

 

[pikmin.org]

When was the registered players list last updated? I registered and paid a few days ago and I'm still not there. =/

 

[Hughie]

It takes a few days, it did with me. I think it might be a bit longer since there will be lots of sign ups today and yesterday.

 

[Attila_]

keen to have some practice this week; i just found out that i have a week off uni. anyone?

I'm pretty keen to get my commentate on some matches. I can get pretty hype and i also have commentated on ACL halo stuff back in the day.

i don't mind who commentates on the recording setups, but i'd prefer if only people i know can commentate do so on the stream.

on the stream, yes. we'll sort out the top 4 stuff as it happens.

other matches will be recorded and commentated on other setups.

Does anyone know if there is a schedule up for ss?

Schedule is in the OP.

When was the registered players list last updated? I registered and paid a few days ago and I'm still not there. =/

it's being updated manually, and the SS guys have been in sydney the past couple of days. so there are currently a large number of names missing from the list.

i have some free time :D

Commentate on brawl pls

 

[Bu$]

Commentate on brawl pls

HUHUHUHUHUHUH naaaaaa. Melee 4 lyfe. #Bu$

 

[Ghostbone]

I'd be keen to commentate some Brawl games if at all possible.

 

[Splice]

I was thinking like
Man I do not like Brawl.
Then I was thinking like
Man I have not been playing Melee every day because uni + dotaddiction makes that too hard
**** what if I lose hard and SS is just terrible for me?

Then I realised I get to chill with JP regardless,
And Busloo Showdown is going to be there for me regardless.
Then I exclaimed 'w00t' aloud and woke up one of my housemates.

True Story.

[Tin Man]

I wouldn't mind doing some Brawl commentary myself. Here are some reference videos of my commentary:

[S.D]

For general brackets/pools setups I don't mind who is on the mic, but we MUST designate people for the stream who we are confident will represent us well. We will need to have about 4 people allocated to cover those who are likely to be in the finals themselves.

Doesn't look like unny is coming, me and dekar are likely to be in top 4 so I'm not sure who to nominate.
Billy and Joey have expressed interest - I'm happy to do whatever matches I'm not in and I'll have to think about it other than that.

^ If anyone can get out to Mill Park/Bundoora area we'll be playing melee all week! :D

e: Also have a recording setup

Bring it to SS. I don't want to have to record unless necessary, mainly because I don't have a program that records audio and video in the same place.

No worries, in the off chance that there is an internet connection, can easily stream out of it too.

 

[Jei Jei]

So how are we doing with space for smash? Are they rearranging everything? Because we barely have enough space with the normal monthly attendance.

 

[S.D]

Jei - SS is not being held at SLHQ. Probably a timely reminder for everyone. Check the OP for the venue.

 

[Jei Jei]

Oh I see, will there be parking?
I can probably direct these questions to Chris lol....

 

[S.D]

23 registered for SSBM and SSBB. Don't know if these are final numbers. Didn't see Dekar on the list lol, or attila, or Shaya. Maybe it's not fully updated.

 

[Dekar289]

yer not updated

i hope when it is there's an even number of entrants for melee/brawl teams lolll

 

[YoshiAustralia]

Post the answer here when you find out pls.
