I. Intro
Welcome to the smashboards home of Penn State's Brawl and Melee community, as well as near-by areas! This thread gives you all the information you need to find players on campus and in the central pa area surrounding State College.





II.Weeklies/biweeklies information
Weeklies/Bi-weeklies will be held in State College starting in the Fall Semester. Stay tuned, as this will be updated as the semester gets closer!






III.Other News
Mlg DC has been announced Oct.15th-17th! This is only 4 hours away from PSU. If your done with class by 11:15am that day, and are interested in going, talk to Mav.





IV.Player Finder
This is the section where you can find contact info for all the state college players. This section will take some time to get up-to-date, as there are several players who arent very active on the boards. Post your info in the thread if you want to be added to the list!

V. Local Rankings
Starting in the fall semester, there will be local power rankings for the PSU/central PA area. These will not have as much significance than the Offical PA Power Rankings. It is still being debated how these will be determined, but these will likely only be based on weeklies/bi-weeklies results. A point system is looking like the best option. Top 5 in Brawl and melee will be ranked. More details once the semester starts.

good job making the thread though ^_^ we'll have to talk about where/when these tournaments are taking place, and I think we can do better than a top 5 for barlw at least

We've always had little tournaments in the past, but it was always whenever we randomly felt like it... this way we can get something solid going ^_^

Just joining the thread here. I'll most certainly attend most of these tournaments. If anyone's interested in Melee or Brawl+ friendlies, I'm down. No vBrawl for me though, sorry.

I just arrived at PSU. If anyone's interested in melee friendlies, just let me know. It's been awhile since I've known anyone who plays, but I'd like to get back into it.
