The Austin Smash 4 Thread - Weeklies are now at OOPLES!

[Shiken]

I'm up for either hosting or attending a fest on friday

 

[Sky Pirate]

Looks like we got ourselves a ball game.

It'd probably be easier on the U.T. people to have it at Chris's, but I don't really care what we do.

 

[Mike2]

So I want to try to go to a tournament every weekend until WHOBO and get a LOT of stuff recorded.

Also: My camera is ****ing booty. lol Quality is absolutely terrible for recording matches. You can barely tell what's going on sometimes. So I'm gonna see about taking this one back and paying a little more for a better one.

 

[Gova]

Buy a Dazzle.

 

[Sky Pirate]

Just get a capture card.
Doesn't cost much.

EDIT: What Nick said, but pretend I said it first.

 

[Mike2]

Wait, I don't exactly know how this works, but isn't that for matches you can save?

I'm talking about for matches at tournaments you can't save. So you have to record with a hand held camera.

 

[Sage JoWii]

Silly Mike2. Capture cards (i.e. Dazzle) are electronic gizmos that record your matches while you play.

IT'S WHAT YOU NEED. (Like electrolytes )

 

[Sky Pirate]

I don't understand why you wouldn't be able to save tournament matches.
Even if you can't get the replay, you can still record them as they happen with a Dazzle.
You just need to get three Y-splitters (each 2 male, 1 female) and use them to hook the Wii up to both the T.V. and the capture card.

Do you mean that you want to catch the player reactions or am I missing something here?

SOMETHING LIKE THAT EXISTS?

LMAOOOOOO

No, I just have no idea what capture cards are till now.

 

[IG88]

i'm glad i looked into this thread before my classes today, made calculus seem not all that bad lol

Mike2 is the best poster in Austin.

 

[Shiken]

scratch hosting on friday, i gotta work sat so ill just be attending if someone else is hosting :<

 

[Gova]

So... I heard class might be canceled tomorrow because it's supposed to rain + freeze.

 

[Poltergust]

Is it really going to be canceled again? I mean, the high for tomorrow is like 45-degrees. I sort of doubt it.

 

[Gova]

Rain + Freeze meaning that ice might form on the roads making it dangerous to drive/walk

edit: And I lol'ed considering you wouldn't even walk to Chris's in 45 degree weather.

 

[Sky Pirate]

Rain+Freeze sounds like a bad time for Ground types like us.

 

[Poltergust]

I'm a Dragon-type.

...Oh, wait. I'm still screwed. :<

 

[ToferTheHuman]

Ghost types are meh about it.
So I'm good.

 

[Shiken]

scrub types like myself are weak against all elements =(

 

[Sinister Slush]

Dragon and Fire type.
Dammit Polt we're Reshiram

 

[Sky Pirate]

Sooooo "scrub type" is some kind of code for "Ice type"?

 

[Reizilla]

Ice type da bess. Doesn't afraid of anything

Come to GATO Con!! We'll have at least one recording set-up :D

 

[IG88]

Hey shaun, you think we could try and get homebrew set up on my wii at the fest this Friday?

 

[Sky Pirate]

Maybe, but it would be wayyyyy easier to just walk you through it.
Did you get a 1-2 GB SD card yet?

 

[IG88]

No, but I could go get one today

 

[Sky Pirate]

You're going to need one anyway if you want to run homebrew.
The apps and codes and such are all stored on your SD card.

Let me know when you get one.

 

[Zigsta]

So next tournament this is gonna be the side event:

Waseda Style is sort of like 2 man crews.

Basically, both teams decide who they want to send out first. The two players who get chosen have to play a set. Then, the remaining two players play a set. If you're tied at one win each, then the winners play a set.

It's a really fun side event. Especially if you're character-locked and the teams are random. It encourages people to adapt quickly to unfamiliar teammates, and there's strategy involved in deciding who goes first and whatnot. You guys should try it out sometimes. :D

 

[Espy Rose]

Random Team 2-Man Crew Battles with slightly altered rulesets?

I love it.

[Mike2]

[Sky Pirate]

I live too far away to come to "small" smashfests.
If Chris is hosting Friday, I'll see you then.

These Waseda battles sound fun!

 

[Zigsta]
