New tournament idea:

Each round you pick 3 characters to use. Then you have a 3 character battle against your opponent.

Like the ever popular 12 character battles but actually possible to do within a tournament's time constraints.
Sounds cool

It'll never replace real singles tourneys tho.

disproving determinism
just checked my other email for the first time in a while and there's an invitation to submit my YouTube videos for monetization (i.e. get paid based on the video ads).

Because my 100 view videos that I haven't made for like 6 months are going to make me so much money!!!!!!

I'm off to dive into my pool of gold - maybe I'll make a video of it :awesome:

LOL Surri and Dmoogle closed the thread because they both rely on pikachu A LOT.

Characters that should be banned:
- Pika: broken
- Kirby: broken
- Fox: laser
- Captain Falcon: uair
- DK: grab/upb
- Link: projectiles
- Yoshi: utilt
- Ness: grab
- Luigi: gimp
- Mario: gimp
- Jiggly: downb

Two solutions left: Samus dittos only. Ban Samus too and therefore ban the game. The latter sounds more appropriate though.

is smash64 competitive events totally gone? I see that there now is a smash64 Online tournaments forum, which is great, but I liked having a forum where we could point out the few console tournaments too. It's not like most people are going to sift through the pages of Melee/Brawl tournaments to see if any nearby have 64.

Not like there were any real tourneys offline anyways except Apex/Genesis, and honestly everyone nearby is prolly gonna shout it from the social thread

Agree that it's stupid tho. But smashboards hasn't done anything right since they took us out of general gaming.

Uh, not to speak for him or anything, but I'm pretty sure he won't if there's no Competitive Events section any more. And the Apex thread was moved into the main forum.

I closed the thread because it was a spam haven. If someone created the thread anew with a legitimate, well-thought-out argument and people discussed it seriously, then I'd let it be.

And I don't rely on Pikachu at all. I very rarely will play one character more than like 3 matches in a row. I definitely play Link more than Pika, and usually other characters as well, depending on my mood.

Wow, looks like it.

When someone posts a tournament in this forum, I just move it (with a redirect) to Competitive Events. I've never infracted or locked a thread for that reason.

Now that I'm home for Thanksgiving break, I'll try to get the Competitive Events section back, preferably with a link inside the Smash 64 main forum.

For now, if someone wants to post a non-online event, feel free to do it here, and I won't touch it without reason (I can't speak for Surri, etc. though). Hopefully we can get a better system soon.

Just bought a virgin grey N64 controller at Bookman's today. They still exist! Now I have a backup for Apex.

B-Rex and I are going to do a 12 character battle on Tuesday. Should be fun.

That is all.

I just noticed that in the list of moderators of this board there's a mod called Blue Yoshi. I have never heard of that guy before :confused:

He was elected mod, but I had a feeling that he would be soft/would go inactive and never supported him. Sure enough, he was soft/went inactive. I swear life likes to prove me right sometimes.
