Most people use Facebook to communicate. I don't enjoy that medium. Things are too unorganized and complicated to follow.
Very much agreed, not a fan of Facebook.

I think I'll be heading to Mothership this Sunday, a friend from Indonesia is visiting and it'd be fun to play Smash. Hope to see some of you guys there.

Weeklies are on Friday's now? Huh, interesting. Also I don't know who Seibrik is...
Yeah and he was one of the better Meta Knight players in Brawl. He's from Florida.

Also you should start coming to the weeklies again. Everyone is wondering where you went. :(

The game has been bringing up personal issues. Especially when I lose. I'm distancing myself from those situations to keep calm and avoid hurting others.

Thank you sir. By the way we have a sub-league for Austin but it's not being used. It can provide an additional PR, and seeding can be done automatically from there.
How can we start using that?

Hey guys. I'm a competitive smasher from Austin as well but don't really attend too many locals. I hope I can change that in the future but for now I'd like to know if I can play anyone here via wifi.

Hey I'm gonna be moving to Austin, Texas in a while(possibly a few months to a year) and am wondering what games you all do? Are there any facebook groups I could join?

This sounds awesome! I'm fairly new to the competitive scene but I'll do my best to stop by sometime, what times do y'all usually go to?

My avatars are usually just from whatever last piece of media I consumed.

GG's this past Sunday. Game 1 had me worried haha!
Oh yeah, definitely. I got a little cocky after game 1 and started playing completely braindead, along with the fact that your adaption is really good, I couldn't handle game 2 and 3. We gotta play again sometime, next time I won't underestimate you.

It has finally happened, I've been recognized for my avatar skills. Gova be wary. I'm climbing the avatar tier list.

2. There are only 14 days (exactly 2 weeks) left to register for TGC 7. Though the event is April 9th, I am cutting off registration for Singles and Doubles on April 6th so that all of you can see your pools/brackets/seeding before the event starts and we can make any changes if needed.


3. Online registration for TGC 7 is REQUIRED. There will be ZERO offline/in-person sign-ups. If you wish to attend TGC 7, please sign up at https://smash.gg/tournament/tgc-7-1 Please note that you MUST have a smashgg account in order to register for TGC 7. Its takes less than 2min to make an account.

TGC 7 2vs2 (doubles) has a cap of 64 teams and has hit 18% capacity but will be at 42% once the already registered players confirm teammates. TGC series has an average of over 200 1vs1 entrants per event and 60 teams in 2vs2 and so this event WILL absolutely cap. Please don't wait, register now and guarantee yourself a spot.


NOTE: Remember to "invite" your partner through smashgg using only their smashgg username to confirm your team. If you do not invite your partner, you won't be allowed to play in teams.

So I haven't done this in a while (been out of the game for the most part), but I'm going to try to get back on posting the PR top 20 every time a new PR is released. There are a few new faces in Austin that I haven't really played against yet, so let me know who the mains are on some of the people I'm missing/incorrect on, and I'll update as needed! Same thing goes for people who have added/changed mains.

Without further ado, here's the current Season 4 PR (3/30/15):
1) Hakii :4corrinf:
2) MikEffect :4ness:
3) SaSSy :4rob:
4) Savage :4sheik:
5) Gova :4kirby::4cloud:
6) Mugen :4zss:
7) Magik :4wario2:
8) Zay :4link:
9) TheRusBus :4marth:
10) Dozingleaf :4olimar:
11) PWii :4metaknight::4marth:
12) Doombase :4mario::4littlemac:(Not sure on this one. I am pretty sure I have seen him playing Mario though)
13) Evilblue :4fox::4sheik:
14) Tio :4myfriends:
15) Locuan :4mario::4zss::4marth::4robinm::4ryu:
16) FX :4littlemac:
17) Dragonite :4luigi::4metaknight:
18) JayDee :4cloud: (Could be wrong; this is just what I heard. I haven't played or watched JayDee since he returned to the scene)
19) EasyApe :4greninja:
20) AoS | MassKirbycide :4megaman::4kirby::4cloud:

Character usage in the top 20:
3x: :4marth::4cloud:
2x: :4mario::4kirby::4sheik::4littlemac::4zss::4metaknight:
1x: :4corrinf::4ness::4rob::4wario::4link::4olimar::4fox::4luigi::4greninja::4megaman::4robinm::4ryu::4myfriends:

It's interesting that Austin still doesn't really too much gravitation toward top tiers. With Marth being perhaps the most-used character, along with multiple Kirbies and Macs in the top 20 (and plenty of other characters!), there's still good diversity here! Perhaps most significantly, there aren't any prominent Bayonettas. Given that /r/smashbros has been complaining loudly about her lately, I do wonder if it's only a matter of time before someone starts to really pick up Bayo and pick up more results. I guess only time will tell!

Whoa, bro. I remember Nick's Metaknight coming out to play.
Is Hakii dropping Lucas?
And does Savage still Sheik after the nerf? He told me he couldn't use her anymore.

Also, take me off of that PR please. I'm almost certainly not entering again for a few months.

EDIT: This Fire Emblem theme, though
