[JCaesar]

hey, be sure to let ur crew and stuff know if they are coming to pound they have to pay at least the spectator fee!!!! just a reminder since reg ends soon

Just fyi.

Registration ends Feb 1st, which is Tuesday, so go go go: http://pound5.weebly.com/

 

[Thunderhorse+]

I thought Project M only people only need to pay the spectator fee at the door. Wasn't aware we had to register for anything beforehand.

 

[JCaesar]

Spectator fee is $10 less if you pre-reg online. You can do it at the door though.

 

[Thunderhorse+]

Baller. Will do after work.

 

[Bandit]

Wow... $20-$30 just to show up... I think I will pass.

Sorry guys.

 

[Thunderhorse+]

Technically it's $10-20 just to show up. $20-30 to show up and compete in P:M. I understand what you mean though.

Would you reconsider if I pay your entry free or spectator fee?

 

[JCaesar]

No, Bandit was right. Spectator fee is $20 with the online discount. It's an international-level tourney. It ain't cheap. But it's totally worth it.

/pretends not to get in free for being a TO

 

[Laijin]

So how do we sign up for P:M?
Is it a free tournament? Or for money? Cause I'm gonna have to bust out that Kirby and Toon Link..

 

[JCaesar]

There will be a place to sign up at Pound. $10 entry. We're using the demo, so no Kirby or Toon Link.

 

[Thunderhorse+]

You'll just have to go Sheik.

Like every other Melee tourney .

EDIT: Well. I've finally done it. Through a year and a half of Brawl Falco and however long I've been playing the hacked versions of the same character, I've finally done it.

I've finally worn out my B button to the point where it's unusable.

Time to buy a new controller.

 

[JCaesar]

Niiiice. Is that your first worn out controller? Be sure to frame it.

Who's up for another smashfest this weekend?

 

[Thunderhorse+]

Yep. That controller's served me pretty well. Got a new one still in the box off of Ebay for $35.00...and it's a white one :D. Should be here Thursday or Friday.

I'm down for another fest though. My desire to practice is on overdrive now that Pound V is so close and I have a huge advantage by being able to play my two best characters while a lot of other people are limited to using secondaries.

Who's up for another smashfest this weekend?

Sure. Been working on rest combos. I'm still missing one in four against low level comps in melee. :[

Cool beans yo. I've always wanted a white one, but it seems they've become the default now. I think I'm on my twenty billionth controller or something like that. I tend to kill analog sticks.

 

[Thunderhorse+]

Yeah my analog stick was going anyway, at least when it came to going left and right. It's just the fact that the B button became unresponsive enough to warrant a new controller since come on...try playing Falco with inconsistent lasers and shines. It showed some signs of that last weekend too, but I just thought I input my commands too early.

And if you want to practice rest combos, do it against me. Uthrow -> Uair -> Rest will win you games against me in under 15 seconds.

 

[JCaesar]

Yeah back in the Melee days I tore through controllers. I went through about 2 a year. But I've had the same (white) controller since not long after Brawl came out. I dunno if it's because the white ones are tougher or just because Brawl and Brawl+ were slower paced and required so much less tech skill. But I imagine I will be needing a new one fairly soon now that I'm into Project M, though I still don't play it nearly as much as I played Melee in college.

Edit: Found it! Poor poor Thunderhorse...

 

[cmart]

Sounds like fun ^_^ And playing any char with a bad B button sounds painful.

edit: After ten minutes on ebay - Good lord they make knock-off look-alike controllers now? Color me scandalized.

 

[Thunderhorse+]

I'm sure Marth wouldn't be crying too much over inconsistent B attacks XD.

 

[JCaesar]

Maybe your Marth... I couldn't live without 3/4 of his specials. Counter can go die in a fire though.

 

[Vist]

cmarrrrrrrrrrrrt

 

[Thunderhorse+]

Viiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiist

When are you going to hang with us again?

 

[TheTantalus]

White controllers are easy to find, just go to amazon. They are 30 bucks a pop and can ship free of charge. They are definitely super good and durable.

I'm trying to get one from brandon for 20 though.

Edit: TH, you live near brandon, so if you want you could buy it from him, then have cmart pay you back.

Yeah I found those on Amazon. I'm not particularly concerned with getting one right now that I've done my research though. I thought they weren't being made anymore or something, but it turns out that isn't true. I'll just wait till my current controller dies.

 

[_Yes!_]

Question! What's left for wolf to be worked on that he won't be usable for the demo?

 

[JCaesar]

Quite a bit actually. Touch ups for his specials, maybe some gravity tweaks, an aerial or two. I haven't shrunk his hitboxes to Melee size yet. That, and the fact that we're not including every character possible in the demo. Because ... it's a demo.

 

[Bandit]

You forgot the main reason...

Wolf is a *****.

 

[Thunderhorse+]

Jab -> Fair baby. Killing people at 40%.

 

[JCaesar]

Lawl +

 

[Bandit]

Jab -> Fair baby. Killing people at 40%.

Bowser?

FSMASH -> Killing people at Spawn

 

[Thunderhorse+]

JIAAAAAAAAAAAAANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It'll be fixed though, unlike Wolf.

 

[_Yes!_]

His fair isn't that strong lol. But thanks anyway.

 

[Thunderhorse+]

It wasn't the fair, it was the reduced boundaries of Brawl+ that allowed it to kill that early. I think you had already stopped playing before then though.

Edit: I think I see where the disconnect's happening now. When I made the reference to Wolf's fair killing at 40%, I was talking about Brawl+. It's an inside joke within our crew and has no relevance to P:M Wolf or his fair in the slightest. That's why I also said Wolf couldn't be fixed...because Brawl+ is dead.

Sorry for the confusion.

 

[cmart]

Bowser?

FSMASH -> Killing people at Spawn

Yeah in retrospect, that was quite silly. Not that I was complaining

 

[metalmonstar]

Jigglypuff was a beast in Brawl+ when they reduced the boundaries. I am kind of sad Brawl+ died out. It was kind of frustrating, kind of fun, and kind of unique.

 

[_Yes!_]

lol np thx TH. I'm hyped for wolf though. PLEASE FINISH THIS GAME <3

 

[Bandit]

Done Season 3 of How I Met Your Mother.

How's Scrubs coming, TH?

 

[Thunderhorse+]

Not coming at all since I've been dedicating every waking free moment to reading American Gods. Almost 600 pages and I'm just past 200. And I have to read Anansi Boys and Sandman afterward.

And this is after various people wanted me to play Chrono Trigger, watch Heroes, and read various Marvel comics that I haven't gotten around to (Spiderman: Back in Black, Spiderman Evolve or Die, Planet Hulk, World War Hulk, Hulk vs X-Men, Red Hulk, Dark Avengers, and Dark Wolverine to be exact).

So yeah you people are giving me forever amounts of stuff to do. I eventually have to get around to playing Prototype and Assassin's Creed I and II as well.

 

[Bandit]

Yeah, when I take on something, it immediately becomes obsessive. It is why me and RPG's usually get along so well.

 

[Thunderhorse+]

It's obsessive for me too, hence why I've read over 200 pages in about a week. And you saw how quickly I blasted through DQ9. But there's just so much stuff and I only have a certain number of hours in the day to do stuff between work, school, homework, and setting aside 1 hour a day for Project M practice.

Plus I have to finish up work for the PMBR before whenever the demo comes out.

 

[VanillaWaffle]

i might be down for a smashfest this weekend, will let you know by tomorrow night prolly.

also lolz at the wolf b+ talk, that was the day i dropped my controller and said wtf
