I think we should be up there by 9:30 (I should be leaving at around 5, getting to JCz by 7ish, and we should be at your place by 1 hour and 30 minutes accounting for time needed to pack up JCz's stuff and assuming we leave immediately). I'd definitely be up for it, I don't have a super good green shirt, but I have one that will suffice.

EDIT 2: Damn, the moment I tune in...Eric Bischoff, Scott Steiner, Bubba Ray and Devon, Matt and Jeff Hardy, Rob Van Dam, Kurt Angle, Hulk Hogan...

It's like all of a sudden I care again!

I'm down. I'll wear my Mountain Dew shirt (or is it supposed to be some kind of dress-up thing?)

7pm + an hour and a half = 8:30 btw TH.

So I was digging across TV tropes and was looking across the article for the Five Man Band. Life has a funny way of imitating art I suppose (or the other way around depending on how you look at it) because you can pretty much structure the Legion into a Five Man Band!

~ The Hero: JCaesar [he is the head of the Legion for a reason. Also tends to be the nicest and more 'heroic' of the bunch...for what that's worth since there's not much competition <_<. We're pretty much all ****s in our own way]
~ The Lancer: Waffle and I [this one is tough to call. Waffle definitely has the extremely-snarky-yet-well-intentioned personality that a lot of traditional lancers have and would be difficult to see him fitting better anywhere else, but I fit the bill for the standard definition as a direct foil to JCz's abilities. Smart, slower play vs technical, reckless play.]
~ The Smart Guy: Quinnydinny [Easily could out-code us all in anything. Also tends to be composed and rational. You have to be to hang out with me and keep from getting into something stupid :p]
~ The Big Guy: Count Kaiser [You gonna finish that? Na, I don't mean it in a derogatory way, but you are the most physically imposing out of all of us. Also is almost perfect as a Gentle Giant or a Genius Bruiser]
~ The Chick: Bandit [Full stop. This is pretty obvious]
~ The Sixth Ranger: cmart [Late to the party]

Other dudes that fit outside the traditional mold:

~ Token Evil Teammate: Jason [Yeah, he's not technically in the crew. But he's got Complete Monster/Card Carrying Villain written all over him]
~ Team Pet: Guy [obv. What a monkey]

I love it! Though I'd like to point out the irony of calling cmart "late to the party," since he's been going to smash tournaments longer than any of you by far. Is there a trope for an old school guy who took a long leave of absence and recently made his triumphant return?

lol It doesn't matter how long I've been playing smash - I fit the trope as relevant to the legion. I find it funny that there's two lancers tho.

It's not uncommon to double up on roles (especially lancers). Off the top of my head, Chrono Trigger has two lancers as well.

Well Five Man Band status is reserved for people of the same team. Since you guys are apart of ATHF, you and ee would have seperate tropes altogether. Or ATHF collectively could be a Five Bad Band/Legion of Doom/Psycho Rangers analogue to the Legion.

lolz lancers are the ones always thrusting the ladies, so im cool with that.

edit - th you would also fit the chick role, and i think you took the title of "the big man" a bit too literally

I definetely have elements of The Chick, and I would probably default to that secondly. But the fact that not only am I a direct foil to JCz in terms of ability but also typical lancers are "second in command" in a team and I'm currently second rank in the legion ever since Cape left, I think the Lancer role fits the glove perfectly considering the situation. But you're right that I have a number of Chick qualities too.

As for The Big Guy, none of us are strong or in particularly good shape. Bandit would be the closest person we have to someone who is athletic, but even he admits he's more out of shape than he should be. Even though none of us are strong in the traditional sense, Kaiser still has the edge on us as far as raw poundage. I doubt any of us could take him down.

And that's aside from him almost perfectly fitting the Gentle Giant subtrope.

Ok guys, update on housing. Pay attention if this concerns you, especially you namesearchers that don't frequent this thread too often like RyokoYaksa/Ryoko and Xavier Rythos/GHNeko/GoldenHeartNeko.

Quinnydinny got back to me about housing and will no longer be offering housing, as when he went to check with his parents to see if it was ok, they were not cool with it. I'm taking the first 4 people who asked for housing, namely JCaesar, VanillaWaffle, GuruKid, and Count Kaiser. I'm sorry to tell the other 3 people who were supposed to stay with me or Quinnydinny that we no longer have room to house you. I apologize on behalf of myself and Quinnydinny, but seeing as how Quinnydinny offered housing without anyone asking him to and without knowing most of the community with the exception of the Legion on a particularly personal basis, it's way beyond his right to withdraw his hand from housing duties.

Very bad. I have yet to steal anything of note and I have been productive in my day-to-day activities. This makes me feel a certain amount of pride in myself and in the things I do. I have also been working consistently, meaning that I am not dead broke and thus do not have to resort to theft, wellfare, or mooching off of those around me. I have also not listened to any sort of bad musicians such as Lil' Wayne, Jason DeRulo, or Wakka Flocka Flame, instead preferring to listen to technical, classically trained musicians who are talented in the instruments they play and graduated from prestigious universities such as Julliard as opposed to dropping out of high school, going to jail, and thinking they can make a quick buck.

So yeah, I'm really bad at being black right now. Can you give me a few pointers?

Oh wow.

On another note, I remembered that I have friends/family living in the DC area. Literally 2 minutes after this realization, I'd secured housing for myself for Pound V. Yay memory.

It's all good. Sorry to hear you can't make it.

Not only is there one free spot in my house, but it also means that I'm out a co-commentator. Guru, you up for co-commentating the Project M tourney with me?

Dude

Seriously

If you were my bro, you would've called, texted, PMed, emailed, and AIMed me. At the same time. You would've sent a hand written letter, and it would've gotten there on super express mail.

Believe it or not, I heard about it first hand on Monday night. Alex Strife jumped on the podcast we were doing for Project M and was super hyped about it.
