Yo AZ dudeHeeelllloooooo Oklahoma!!!!!
i decided, for now, im just focusing on smash. if you bring your dc to a smashfest, or your ps2, or whatever, ill play you at whatever. but as far as competitive play goes, smash is it for me for now.Good to hear that man, you definitely have what it takes to take top in OHSNAP3. There's just something special about having everything on the line with everyone watching and cheering on.....
Thanks man, I appreciate it. Meh, I was watching some EvoEast matches, and it got me in the mood to get back into all the other fighters. Lol, maybe we could do some kind of "Every Fighting Game Challenge" or something, including Shaq Fu (j/k on the shaqfu >_>).
And why is that?There actually are monthly tournaments in Tulsa, but almost none of us attend those, so the level of competition won't be as high. However, we are hosting a much bigger tournament...
people from wichita, arkansas, and texas have come to our tournaments numerous times. of course i mean the larger ones, but still, tulsans(?) into competitive smash have had a few opportunities to hit OKC up (though the big tournaments have taken place in norman. still, people from paul's valley, yukon, okc, ada, and more have come for these).execute - I suspect the 'tulsa tournaments' would be the one I just linked to, as I know of no other tournaments happening regularly in the area, other than maybe what gets thrown together at Gridcon, a monthly anime/gaming event.
And why is that?
First off - while the OKC area may hold down the talent for the state, by this boards own power ranking South Paw, recognized as second in the state? Has attended the tournaments regularly, thanks much. 'Won't be high', geez, you could at least give the 2 or 3 decent teams that have shown up and done well for where they are at some recognition.
And if your looking for SSB64 competition? I feel we'll have some high level competition, with notice; k thx.
Second off - why is that? In-ablity to travel, or some kinda exclusion due to us not posting on these boards, or some click deal? At this point, I'm not looking to flame, I'm just looking to understand the mindset.

Why, I'll tell you, my good man:And why is that?
First off, you misquoted me. I said "won't be as high, not "won't be high." I know that South_Paw attends the Tulsa tournaments, but he's the only one. Yes, he is second on our power rankings, but a tournament that has everyone who is power ranked involved WILL have a higher level of competition than a tournament that only has the person ranked second involved, regardless of how high its level of competition may be.First off - while the OKC area may hold down the talent for the state, by this boards own power ranking South Paw, recognized as second in the state?

I'm sure that Tulsa does have a higher level of SSB64 competition, especially since almost no one in OKC and its surrounding metros plays it, but everything discussed about Smash in these forums (save for the SSB64 section), unless explicitly stated, is going to be about Melee, especially if someone from another state inquires about us.And if your looking for SSB64 competition?

It's going to be inability to travel, one hundred-percent. I have wanted to go to the last few tournaments in Tulsa (where I have family, so one of my parents could have theoretically taken me, seeing as how I'm a loser who still doesn't have his license after two years of being eligable and thus can't take myself), but my family was too busy. Po Pimpus said it best in that most of us are high school students without cars, which includes me. This results in me becoming reliant on my parents (and Gravity lolz) to take me places, but if neither of them can, then I'm just out of luck. Furthermore, the greater the distance, the less likely we (well, I, at least) are able to go somewhere.Second off - why is that?

Look everyone! Calvin's got a job!My friend implied that she saw me on a McDee's commercial...I dont know how I should feel about this! McDees makes makes me sick, but on the other hand, IM ON TV BABY!
Bowser FTW.
Is it 7 am?this may be short notice, but anyone want to come to my place to play smash today (7-3) or thursday (7-5)? I live in edmond, send a PM if interested or whatever.
Part of what sparked my response was your statement seemed to throw Tulsa stuff under the bus - and honestly? Meh, the event we throw I don't care about in 'competing', it's getting the word out about the site, and OKgamers actually USED that I care about. As I've said, the actual monthly events we do are NOT on the same scale, and that's a fair reason to point out of towners towards your event... But let's at least get YOUR event on the website eh? I care about OKgamers.com getting the word out about events, but without EVENTS happening and being posted - the site dies. Yes, we ARE averaging about 8 to 10 events consistently in the forums... But there's obviously more going on out there - and this is my concern, that people write off what the staff do as the main purpose for the site - and move on to do their own thing. The site isn't about what we are trying to thrash around and put together; it's about having a central place to network, and have everything going on in Oklahoma.Why, I'll tell you, my good man:
On a concluding note, I don't mean to try to start an argument, but I'm the type to defend myself when my words have been questioned (or something <_<). I want to try to make it to some of the future events in Tulsa, but like I said previously, the distance makes doing so more difficult. It'd be cool if that stuff that Dokkoise said happens, because not only would Oklahoma Smash expand further, but then we'll be like Texas and could have Smash wars between our different regions. I'td be funLawlz.
id be happy to try my best to post events...the only thing is, most of them are scheduled the day before over aim...but for the larger ones i (or someone else) can more then likely do so.I guess it's all about perspective - there are so many Halo freaks that travel from all over the state, I start to feel ripped off on competition.
In the end - I don't think there SHOULD be a comparison between what you guys are throwing, and what we are doing monthly. Our monthlies have some decent competition show up, but it's not a regional event - for sure.
As for travelling - I understand bad car wise, as I'm in the same situation. If I can get some repairs done, we'll see...
What I DO really wonder - is why you guys keep your events to a game themed board, and don't post about your event on OKgamers? I mean crap, your local library is posting more events for OKC than the smash community...
[hint hint - go post ohsnap3!@#]

Several miscommunications - I am not saying Tulsa is WORTHY of a seperate ranking lool - nor do I know more than a few serious groups of players; that and the burnt out feeling I get when I think about rallying fighting gamers... [long Soul Calibur attempts have left me worn out on said subject] Yea. Nah. I'm doing enough trying to get gamers in the state networked through OKgamers - I'm not going to focus on any specific groups right now.

Competition between regions? Would be fun. As I've elluded to it though, I won't be the champion for that, I tried too hard for SC, and got too let down, but I'd definitely join the gaming, and as I've said, even have a place I'd provide play to happen at weekly.
Let me leave you guys with this:
You say you want OK to have more of a smash life. I feel OKgamers.com is a serious attempt to do that, and more. If we all get out there, taking a few minutes away from our game based boards, and at least POST our EVENTS on one central site - we really are going to see a rise in awareness, and hopefully following - a rise in attendance. At the same time - gamers in OK seem hella lazy, so where am I on the hope scale for this... We'll see at the end of the year...
Anyway - SOMEONE - please make sure your events are posted. ONE OF YOU - please keep the OKC smashers represented on the OKgamers forums - please? I mean come on guys, you want change, here we are trying to get the word out about this site - why don't you cash in and help you and us? It's a win-win situation.
You guys win - by putting the word out about your events, and raising general awareness about SSBM play in the state... For us - by you posting your info your helping us prove there ARE things going on in Oklahoma, and thus a reason to even go to OKgamers.com
