Luigi sucks
I'm moving to Panama. I was born there and I'm moving back for a year. There's a very very small Melee scene over there, but it's basically a handful of people who are ok and they play at a store where Magic tournaments are held. I'm sure they'd be down to play 64 here and there, but nobody plays it over there.

You'll be fine. You can still play online at reasonable delay with North and South America.

If you don't play online for some reason I'd recommend you start, cause you're right Panama probably doesn't have the greatest console scene.

Yeah I've been playing online a little bit lately. Gonna take advantage of that this summer before I leave.

That's not the spirit!

But I have a solution: low tier tourney.
Good idea, I remember the last low tier tourney someone hosted never finished for some reason but it wasn't during summer so maybe it would have better luck now.

Kb adapter at ~ 1-3 frames right now.

I accidentally left the power thing from the n64 hanging and it touched the board and smoke starting rising and it damaged the board. Still works but it fails randomly. I'm going out now to get a new one. I know another quick fix which will cut a frame out, then I have a bunch of work to do testing other peripherals like usb keyboards and stuff, and then i can make adjustments to my software to squeeze one more frame. Then we will have 0-2.

Lag has nothing to do with your speedtest result.

1) Make sure nobody else use your connection (downloading, torrenting, youtubing or even browsing)
2) Make sure you're close enough to the server (that would generally affect delay more than lag, except if you ping spoof)
3) Make sure it's not CPU lag (ie lags offline)
4) Some say wireless may lag for no apparent reason
5) If your still lagging, either your connection is unstable, or your ISP throttles, or I don't know.

Anyone listened to Daft Punk's new album? I'm really digging it

Also, Pacific Rim is my most hyped movie this year, it just looks amazing

Congrats dude. My degree hasn't done much for me. Hopefully you got a good one.

I need to go to grad school.

Damn using Link against DK on DL is so lame. You pretty much have to camp like a little ***** all match to win, and if you approach you die.

Dude that's like my favorite Link MU

You can go ultra aggro. I go harder than ever in that MU. B Link your post is like the exact opposite of how I feel lol

I dont think ultra aggro is very smart if you play against a DK on your own level on DL. DK has a very good defence game, and if one of the worst(if not the worst) agro caracthers like link starts rushing in he's mostly in trouble.

Defensive link has a good shot though, bombs ***** apes.

Komo stop. You're bumping threads no one cares about and making it harder to find threads people are currently involved in.

This is getting ridiculous.

Where I work we call the fat pills.

I played on the adapter with an xbox controller all day yesterday; works like a charm. I might use it in tournaments so I can map the n64 controller d-pad to directional inputs to give me hax DI.

That would be silly. You can spam a keyboard button more efficiently than a d-pad IMO.

Way to be inefficient cmu.
