Now that my plan has been hatched and I'm no longer on the PR, I gotta attend all tournaments and try to fffff up the brackets as an unranked player.

perfect, now that lightsyde is going to tournaments, i can finally return to nc

also, i don't think its a good idea to live together for you two lol...

just from my experience, even if you live with you're best friend, you are gonna find stuff about that them annoys you...

if you guys are really good enough friends, it won't matter and you'll be able to work it out... also, if you don't know the people you live with, as long as they don't do anything really ****ed up, you can just treat them as people you share rent with and nothing more, and everything can work out fine...

anything in the middle turns out pretty bad... just a heads up

4 years of experience in all 3 categories, so take that for what its worth

Word Mahone, well it could also be fun. We're trying to get another smasher to live with us too LOL(shady penguin, plays mostly marvel now though). Anyway, if we don't like it we can change it up, but I bet we could work something out.

I do appreciate the advice and will see if I can find a way to be a sick roommate even moreso than before.

I started playing in the last six months. Why aren't I on that list? Is he saying all that stuff is more important than me?

Next weekend like the 14th? Ill see what I'm up to. I might go to chapel hill if their tournament shapes up.

Edit: not that worried about the pr. Its just a little funny to me, cause the 3 guys I'm worried about being above me probably won't even realize they're pr'd until someone either tells them, or they go to another tournament lol.

Mike we need a climbfest, pronto.
Yeah that weekend. I should be all moved in if you wanted to come over.

And for future tournaments if you want to pool, I'm willing to chip in some gas. I usually can't drive since my girlfriend gets a little mad when I take the only car to go play smash all day.

If you guys are annoying, ill just live with ashley like I do now. Only time I go to my room as it is, is to shower and change clothes. It probably won't be bad.

i'm pretty bad at it. my other suitemates in my current suite bro pretty hard. i can't handle it very well. last weekend i walked in and one of the guys was upside down on the couch flipped over with his feet on the wall kinda dancing to the music they were listening to.

i just got my laptop and returned to ashleys room as if nothing had occurred.

What happens for tournaments during the Summer? I assume we won't be having any NCSU tournaments, and given that this will be my first summer with you guys, I want to know what'll be happening.

mk. looking forward to it.

my sheik is coming along nicely. once i can sh (nair or bair) oos it's on. techchasing with her initial dash is mad fun. i think i play her more like a european sheik, i feel like i can still do more with dthrow jab, but i keep dashing instead cause it's more fun.

i also need more dtilt and less ftilt, and better spacing overall on my ftilt. it's safe on shield, but not on her crouch.

just posting to solidify it in my brain.

edit: usually, things die, i get PR'd, and we all wait longingly for school to resume, raphael.

School tourneys stop, but this'll be the first year where it may actually be an issue unless some dudes step up. Usually we have lots of summer tourneys and wind down towards the start of school so people can get situated and all that. It's definitely a play by ear kinda thing.

I see. I wonder if we'd still be able to use the room at NCSU, given that NCSU has some summer courses.

yeah, i really want more dair combos and more uair combos. watching amsah and ice from HK3 have my interest for the next few days. they implement a lot of the dash dance tricks that i'm working on, and a lot of the other things that i wish to keep working into my game.

i'd like to believe i'm doing the ac fairs right, but i'm probably not. getting them safe on shield is something i'm interested in, because it probably leads (somewhat) safely into more of those, an utilt/spaced ftilt, or a grab.

yeah, i haven't played much ganon since the switch. mostly in teams though, i still need him. he ***** in teams.
