That's doable.

When will we be hearing the news on if you got a venue or not?
Next weekend?This Weekend?Tomorrow? : D /excited
I've got to talk to the Madison crew first to see if they are up for hosting a tournament. I wouldn't even know how to start looking for a venue either.

Huntsville is 4 hours away from us :/
I understand if you wouldn't want to come. I'm sure there will still be Auburn tournaments to look forward to.

I just want to have at least two decently sized tournaments in AL running. I know the Birmingham guys tried their hardest but usually got low turnout. Auburn has had pretty good turnout for its two tournaments (hopefully there will be more in Auburn). I just know for a fact there are a lot of people in Madison and Huntsville that are willing to go to a tournament but just don't want to travel very far.

Just from that last WABA it could easily end up like this.

Elev8
Kismet
Reflex
Lou
Billy
Will_
Player 1
Scatt
George
Albino/Dyno

These are my predictions assuming these players show up to larger events during the season provided.

I'm not sure how much you check the GA Brawl PR often Kola, however this is what was figured our via rankings.


1)Elev8
2)Kismet2
3)Reflex
4)Biglou
5)Player-1
6)Scatt
7)Billy
8)Turtl
9)Micaelis
10)Alby

Obviously, Will_ Hasn't entered any GA tourneys, which is a problem, George has however did very poorly, so yeah here we are.

You can see some similarities here and there, and obviously some dramatic changes since you have a location bias to AL while I have a location bias to GA, both of those obviously because we don't see the opposing players often (I don't see Will_ or George, you don't see Turtl or Micaelis)

Also, considering they haven't played each other in a while, last time Will_ and Player-1 played each other Player-1 won, so even in your list it would seem best if there was a switch there.

Other than that your list looks really solid, just needs those inputted players to enter tournaments and show their stuff.

Elev8
Kismet
Reflex
Biglou
Player-1
Billy
Scatt
George
Michael/Dynomite/Alby/Turtl
Michael/Dynomite/Alby/Turtl

Do any of you remember if George beat reflex in their waba money match? Because if not I don't think he should be so high or even on the PR unless he's able to redeem himself on GA terms; which I'm sure he can.

He lost the MM.

I also made my list assuming that Will_ and George show up to more monthlies. :] But I get what you're saying.

Why cant we just find time to have a side-round robin (no entry fee) throughout the day for the PR at either a waba monthly or Au tourny that most people can go to.
Even if we dont merge, this seems like it would be a good skill determinate.

The only thing is that it cost money to host tourney's so you have to charge something....or we can try to host one outside....i dont think that would go well lol, but maybe

@Cam would you like help setting up a tourney I can find some prices for you

For the next 6 months I will be a Mobile, AL brawler so I can't count how many times I'll be able to go to Waba... but who cares everyone always beats me anyways lol, but just you wait the name Alias shall be synonymous with M2K mark my words.... MARK THEM:)

;P Note: All of the votes listed are in state. I thought you were making a seprate vote for Georgia.

I could edit this and make it for both states though.

Well most of GA sides like Jamaal is saying wait till school starts and see how often AL(not including reflex, elev8 and billy,) come to GA and vice versa. Cause the summer allows for people to travel more often but school usually restricts a lot of people.

I didn't say that Turtl (putting words in my moufffff). Everyone is a bit less active because everyone for the most part have school. So you can't really just say "Alabama won't come because of school" when a lot of Georgia doesn't come because of school too.

tl;dr - That's no excuse to pull Alabama away from us.

Reread my post. "Vice Versa" covers GA not being able to come as well. I said u were the only one who didnt have a problem cause u keep bringing up how if u wanted to u could make the merged pr right now cause of results and how it didnt matter to u. So i just said that everyone in GA has pretty much just said wait till school starts and see if inactivity between states exists. Btw i just edited it cause i spelled vice wrong when i first wrote it >.<.

Why wait is what I'm asking.


Inactivity will happen between Alabama coming to Georgia Tourneys just as much as between Georgia coming to Georgia Tourneys. We have seen Kismet2, Elev8, Reflex, and others enter Georgia tournaments during the school year just as much (if not MORE regularly) than regular Georgia players. You seem to be ignoring that. Inactivity is going to be obvious during the school year, however it happens to both groups. Because of that should we just not have a PR at all? I mean we're missing out on active GA players because of school so we shouldn't do a GA PR either.

...

The answer to that is obviously "why is that relevant"

In a regular PR, even with Activity going down the drain, the PR just changes accordingly. If Alabama doesn't show up to the designated tournaments, they won't be on the PR, there's nothing wrong with that. It would still be a GA/AL PR merged, they just didn't enter enough tourneys to have their part of the community included. If they agree to this there shouldn't' be a problem here.

Alabama doesn't have a common venue besides for auburn which is a rare tournament for us to worry about. So it's mostly a matter of them coming to us, which did they last school year, AND the year before that.

I still don't get what you're trying to say here.

Your logic would imply that we wait to see if we have GA players comings to tournaments, and if they don't we should just not have the PR during that season, we wouldnt' do that regularly, why would we do that for merged?

We Shouldn't have a Georgia pr during the school year because Georgia players won't be coming.
K ur last statement is pretty ******** since GA has never been that inactive except when waba first closed. Even during the school year we have at least 8/10 of our pr members show up every tourney. The reason i want to wait is cause i see no reason to merge if our smash communities arent active with each other WHICH IS THE POINT OF THE MERGE, CAUSE WE ARE ACTIVE W/ EACH OTHER WE SHOULD BECOME 1. If they dont have the ability to show up during school then it just becomes GA pr w/ elev8 and reflex which is dumb since if they wanted and if we allowed them to it could happen. I mean they both go to CSU so they could be considered GA like Billy is considered AL. I also said excluding Reflex and elev8 for a reason. We see them quite often but we dont see anybody from AL frequently at all. In the past year we have seen(besides regs) george twice, zero gamer once, and Kola once. Does this show activity between GA and AL? Not really which is why i wanna wait and see if they come to us more often. I dont want to be excluding people that could possibly be PR status just cause they cant frequently make the drive. I know if they cant make the drive its their fault but if 80% of AL cant make the drive every tourney then the merge becomes useless and i see no point to it.

TCS should be a lot more frequent when school starts. Zero has been an active host. He just hosts them in his apartment.

:p I'll need to get the GA players to re-state their votes so I can add them.
