I don't think I'm too far from you Mike. I could go meet you at Screenz or something.

Huh, I just saw a commercial for Pizza Hut, in which they say that you can "now order pizza with your iPhone!"
...uh...yeah? I'm pretty sure all phones can do that, bros.

I was thinking of doing an impromptu tournament tomorrow for Brawl and possibly Melee if people want to play it. How many will show up, who knows. It was a last minute thing to see if anyone wanted some practice before the Indiana tournament next weekend.
I don't know how many will show up, I know is last minute. I was going to host it at my place and use both my basement and garage to run everything. Now if people want to show up you will be welcome to. I will let you guys decide on a tourney fee. I do want to charge $5, but that will go towards the purchase of Soda, Chips, Snacks, and Pizza for everyone to have throughout the day.
If you want to play Melee also, that is fine. I know many will not show up, so I dont expect a big crowd, but it would just be nice to play some games and it might convince some people to go next weekend to the tournament. lol
I have not made the thread yet, cause I want to know if people are interested first. I live in the Southwest side of Chicago. There is plenty of parking since is a neighborhood and you can also get here by public transportation.
My Info:
8536 South Kolin Avenue Chicago, Illinois 60652
My Cell to call me or text me: 773-540-6347
If I get some interest I will post a thread, again I don't expect a lot of people but if you do show up, I will have a good amount of TVs so as long as you bring the set ups we will be fine. ^_^

Ugh I Am So Bad At Wavedashing Someone Fix My Hands
I remember a time before Brawl in which I would have wavedashing speedruns with Luigi through the entirety of Adventure Mode. Now I can't even do it cleanly.
Also how on earth do you practice using CStick when you can't even use it in Training Mode? I never used it at all back in the day (I played a ton of single player so it was useless to me), and now I'm having problems getting it into my game.

Oh no... XD
All the out of state players came to my place cause it was a relatively shorter drive to my place and then in the morning just a quick 30 minute ride to the venue. But yeah I do not live near there. I just went there to run events that is all. I wont be running anymore there which is why I am looking for venues either near me or closer to the downtown area, but not in it, cause otherwise there is no parking available. lol
Ill probably just be playing some games at home today and see what happens. I'll be talking with people here about how I should run things in the future if I do them again. I will also be figuring out how I will be getting to the out of state events I plan to go to this fall and August. lol

But I will go to this
Count

Good stuff ook.
Arty/quik/other Chicago players should go also. It will be interesting to see how you guys fare against MW:E. I think my tourney will be fairly big also, I'm hoping at least 50 but we'll see.

I liked TFC as well. Really, the transition from TFC to TF2 was...pretty much the same as from Melee to Brawl. It wasn't as technical or complicated, but it was a LOT more fun to me.
Though I miss the spy and scout grenades.

N+ is awesome. L4D is awesome as well. It sucks on 360, but PC is where it's at!

When you do get your 360 back, get Splosion Man. The game is a blast (pun intended).

It gets really difficult later on, especially in multiplayer. But it's so fun and simple in theory.
