You should go at some point, it is fun and it really improves your game. I first went and first played this game august 2006, and now I can hold my own against d20, swift and taki. It's great fun

GO. Learn the ways of the Melee, for it is a beautiful and fulfilling path to walk. SEE YOU GUYS AT WHATEVER TOURNEY YOU ARE HOSTING <33333.
Gaaanon! It is YOU that has matilda and therefor i belive the only way to settle ownership is through a ganon ditto (Or i guess i could ask nicely and request you take good care of the ol girl and return her to me when the time comes (: )
Scar i cant wait to meet ya whenever this tourney goes down. I saw your combo video and as a fan of both knees and disney i must say that was my favorite falcon combo video eva!

Yo matilda was my guilty pleasure(the movie with the little girl and the powers) back in the day, BECAUSE it was all girly and girl power-ish.

Hey did any of the Pitt smashers get a hold of a copy of Brawl yet? I clocked in around 20 hours on the game this President's Day weekend at my friend's place and wanted to hear what anyone else might have thought of it. I'm sure you've all read up on how other Smashers feel about it, but my personal take on the game is that it's been robbed of its competitive nature. Still fun though, but be warned that just about every advanced technical skill you may have acquired in Melee to give yourself a sizeable advantage over your opponent has just been reset to ZERO.
Above all else, the fact that the satisfaction has been taken out of landing Captain Falcon's knee (weak) and that he's been reduced to mortal says it all.

none of us have it, I was considering moding my Wii but i'll wait. Ive heard/seen enough to be convinced that waiting 2 more weeks is worth it.

Yes, that was me. I'm awesome.I like lightning kicking more...O_o Mr. Mogwai sir were you by chance the red falcon i played that left with Xyt?
This is the lake on vudus account by the way...
You sure are. If I manage to get a Pittsburgh tourney together pre-brawl, you should team with me cause Scar and Pakman will be teaming and so will Swift and XYT, so I'll be needing a teammate and I <3 you.
yes, yes it is. I think my general quality of life is way higher now that I knee people when I play this game. Lasers are gay unless they are blue.
EDIT:
I got a couple hours of playing it in at Scars and I completely share your opinion. There is not enough game depth and as such, people will be peaking at this game very early and everyone will get tired of it as a competitive game within 6 month and go back to melee. [crosses fingers] Not only is the knee not as powerful but it's nearly impossible to combo into, this game sucks hard.

no knees, not fun.

Makes 3 of us with the exact same opinion. Fun game (debatably), not competitive, people will peak early.
The only thing I'm afraid of is the scrub mentality, people who go to tournaments because they win every once in a while... Brawl will allow for that IMO. People who are bad will probably place fairly high in a Brawl tourney every once in a while.
Also, fingers crossed. Back to Melee in about 6 months. I know I'm never leaving, SPOC is your haven for Melee!
Nice to know my opinion wasn't alone. Hopefully, we could all be proven otherwise, if gamers can unearth some advanced techniques in the future. Regardless if they do though, the game is without a doubt much SLOWer than Melee which is =(. It's like playing every match with the floatiness of Jiggs and Samus. And we all know how long those matches can go on for. I've found that 3-stock in Brawl for now is comparable to the length of a 4-stock match in Melee.

I find it funny that ppl quit melee and waited for such a not good game. Perhaps if they were playing melee and not worrying about the next game to overtake melee......it'll be funny when the vast majority goes back to melee and the short ride down brawl lane is over.
People need to understand that this community is young and that melee will be around for the long run. Especially since a jiggs won the last major tourney. F**k mango but he has made this metagame more interesting. I do not think melee has peaked yet. The only exception would be M2K when playing friendlies and not being nervous.

Stop Johnning for Jason. Even at his best, I'm not sure M2K has peaked.

i think people "waiting for brawl" was just really people being "tired of melee", and they just said they were waiting for brawl to leave the door open to returning to the community, rather than "retiring" (which as we all know is a meaningless statement 
)
)

its true
and it was hilarious
but to avoid spamming, I say waiting for the game would be way more worth it.

mogwai, here are the dates the CCYO building is available as a venue:

+ this saturday, the 23rd. No other saturday until late march.

oh okay that kinda sucks i was hoping if brawl ever became competetive, they would make a mode where smash balls were incorporated some how.
oh well haha
I know this might be in thw rond thread but I'll ask in both places
Is the pre-brawl tourny deff this saturday or sunday?
And also will there be smasharoni at Duquense friday?
go click at the top of this page for the thread about the pre-brawl tourney. I think next sunday (3/2) is looking like the most likely day for it. This weekend is just too short notice for people coming from further away, I think.

Theres a LOT of smash this Friday everyone try to come!
I expect a large turnout, especially if you want to practice for next week's tournament.
