ok well there is meter parking on the street, and there are two church parking lots across the street (which should obviously be mostly empty weekday afternoons) if you want to chance it (i have no idea how frequently they are policed)

i know for sure of some free parking 3 blocks away (on neville ave. just south of 5th) but there are only 6-7 spots so no guarantee they are free

if someone wants to bring a tv + a setup that would be cool, if not i do still have two of each;

I've spoken to taki on aim, and he's apparently busy with a super-duper-high-tech-omfg-thats-like-impossible undercover project. As far as I know, he doesn't seem to be very available as of now.

We're basically a group of college kids, so over break there will be no smashing at Duquesne. The MCC crew, A-Laon, Playa Fritz, and probably some others are still around, though I'm not sure what sort of holiday smash will be happening. As for when we get back up and running, you don't really need to be specific in how many are coming and whatnot, it's just good to let us know if new people are showing up so that they can be signed in and whatnot. BYOC of course.

Yes we are. I'll be posting a separate thread as soon as we figure out who's house we'll be using. All of our houses are within minutes, even seconds of eachother. If you found one, you could find them all.

The only other info I have is that it will be sometime after Christmas... probably a day between the 27th and the 7th.

Duquesne won't be going on over the break; however, MCC plans on hosting something and will probably make their own thread regarding it. Just keep your eyes peeled.

man that me ganon vs taki falco video was UGLY

i really really wanted the dthrow dsmash to work and it failed like 5 times, and you probably took a total of 200 dmg the whole match and lost =)

for the record though, stop spiking me when i get over like 100 unless you're going to ff and link to a smash/tilt;, a bair would've finished me nicely and a nair would've at least put me over for easy edge guarding

edit: SCS video compendium here if you want to link it directly; should i put 2v2 vids there too?...

My fox just tries to be flashy, if i went for straight kills i'd be a lot better. The reason you think my falco is better is because he is combo oriented, which is the style i like to play.

Come on...most of those matches were for fun. Esp. the gannon falco one, i remember us talking about how much **** the match up was...

Anywho..., i'll try on getting a better computer to upload my videos to, because they are perfect quality on camera, they just suck when i uplaod due to usb/processor speed suckiness.

I also think your (taki) falco may be better than your fox. I've told you that before though.

And anyway, I just like falco better.

Taki's fox is definately better than his falco. I mean, there's certainly some potential in his falco, but he just doesn't play falco enough to know the nuances of the blue bird. Taki's self evaluation of his Fox is pretty accurate, it's too much about style and not enough about business. If he could just take a lesson from his sig, and apply it to his fox game, he could certainly be a force to be reckoned with. His falco on the other hand is still fairly rough and he would need to learn some general principles and advanced comboing techniques, as well the judgement to know when to end a combo, in order to get up to the same technical level as his fox. Not saying this to disuade Taki from playing falco, but rather to point out that there's only so much you can know about a character that you don't play very often (at least against the top level competition), and that in order to really get good with a characer, you really have to push your limits with them at the competetive level. Taki could certainly come to do that with Falco, but it's a longer, harder road than the slight change of mindset he needs for his Fox.

so much press time for taki.

i dunno falco as a whole seems to reward better than fox for technical ability(Bombsolider). If I was as technically sound as you taki I would play nothing but falco, but thats just me.

overall someone practicng nothing but tech and having knowledge of the levels and matchups(and not worrying about mindgames) IMO could do better with falco than a marth/fox/shiek. hence the shorter road in a relative sense.

more on taki:

part of the reason I like taki using falco is also that taki seems to really like being a little flashy and abusing tech. And playing falco really well lets you do that in game, whereas if you want to play fox really well, you often have to forego the tech (multiple waveshines, double shines, shdl) in favor of less technical but more effective strats (shffl to grab to uair, chainthrow, hit and run tactics).

I dunno. I don't really think his falco is better right now than his fox. I just like his falco more.

Cuz falco's combos are teh ez. Way too easy imo. Fox is harder to combo with and for some reason, I admire that?

Unless a falco player revolutionizes the shine combo, he's just another falco that can murder fox in a simple clean combo.

You see taki, get your infinite double shines perfectly wit fox, then you will be banned from tourneys.
