Thanks a lot for making this thread and hosting this tourney, Sveet, it was awesome! I'll post shout-outs tomorrow.
EDIT: K, shout-outs now!
1. Kels - Good **** getting 1st after getting sent to Loser's so early! Thanks for giving me advice against Dart's Falcon, I really should just be less flashy and stick to what's guaranteed.
2. Atma - It was great to meet you and great job getting 2nd! It's sad that we never played friendlies, I hope we meet again someday!
3. Tink - Thanks for not going Sheik in doubles, haha. Again, I really have to play friendlies with you, it's been way too long >.>. I don't think I'll be able to make it to the next Smashing Grounds, but we'll see about the one after that.
4. Sveet - GREAT JOB BEATING KELS, I'M SO SAD THAT IT WASN'T RECORDED!!!!!!!!!! But again, thanks for hosting such an awesome tournament, I had a lot of fun! Good games in Pools, I'll try to make you work even harder next time
.
5. Dart - It's sad to hear that you don't want to come to these anymore, but it was a ton of fun playing friendlies and pool matches with you. Your Pichu is unstoppable, bring him to Genesis and destroy some people!
5. The Good Doctor - Man, your platform game is scary, I think I'll avoid going there next time >.>. Great games in bracket and the money match, I'm glad I made you work for that dollar in the end
. Sorry that the matches couldn't be recorded though, I'll make sure that the camera is working next time.
7. Rat - Awesome Samus man, I'm so glad I finally got to play you. I'll need to get more familiar with that match-up before I can beat you!
7. Metroid - What a scrub.
9. ORLY - You better stay a Falcon main, at least until I can go even with him >.>. I'm sad that we seem to never get a lot of friendlies in... I gotta hunt you down harder next time.
9. Looshkin - That Ganon ditto was too fun man, great stuff! What a troll Wizard's Boot for the last stock lol. Awesome job beating ORLY in pools!
9. Hore - Another person I regret not getting friendlies in with
. It was great to see you again, we definitely have to sit down and play some next time!
9. Hindawg - Awesome matches in friendlies and bracket man, I've never felt that excited over Melee before! If you're curious, matches
1 and
2 are uploaded. Again, great matches and it was good seeing you, I hope we play again next time!
13. Leo - Good job getting out of pools! Stop suiciding on the last stock of our matches so they can be even more epic

13. Kev - Good **** getting out of pools at your first tournament! We better meet up and play during the school year
.
17. Gem - It was nice to meet you, I'm sad we didn't get to play friendlies though. It's a shame that you didn't make bracket, you really should've this time
. We'll play each other next time!
17: Saucey - Great job in teams man, you were tanking in those matches against the top 3! I have to stop stealing your stocks >.>. Mad props for beating Looshkin, I'm sorry that I didn't watch the whole thing!
17: Toya - Good stuff in pools man, I had a lot of fun playing you there and in friendlies as well! You're right, I really do need to go to Smashfests more often... hopefully I can shake off my parents next time.
21: Jackmaster - I hope you're the Jack that goes to U of I, otherwise you can disregard this... but good games in friendlies and teams, it was a lot of fun! We didn't really get to play singles friendlies, but I hope to meet you again so we can!
21: Special K - Sucks that you had to be with Kels again haha, I think you've played him more than I have now
.
25: Burt busdriver - I'm sorry that I didn't recognize you as Jack's Doubles partner! Good games though, it was fun to meet you and play you in both singles and doubles!
25: KK - You gotta play with us more, then you can destroy Patrick and Kevin

25: Patrick - Sorry that I never got to play with you much, but it was great meeting you! Hopefully we'll see each other again at another Smashing Grounds, but if not, then good luck at Rice!
29: Dan - It was awesome to finally meet you in person after corresponding through Facebook so much! We'll definitely get something going during the school year and the remainder of the summer
.
UC group (Mitch, Adam, Zimo, and Eric) - It was awesome to meet you guys! I'm glad there's a Smash scene down there, I thought the fun would be dead
. If you guys are staying in Illinois for the summer, we should definitely try meeting up again! PM me if you guys want to get something going

Anyone I played friendlies with and failed to mention - Great games to all of you, I had a ton of fun and you guys were a huge part of my experience!
