Xanderiris I think gf was 3-1 but I could be wrong. Rob there may be some sort of way to adjust the audio sync with some sort of program.

Mmm, Chris, if you know of a way to resync the sound, see if you can look into that. I'm not particularly savvy with how to do that. The only way I can think of...would be to extract the audio files somehow and then from there, I think I can just overlap them with the video and mute the video's sound.

I'm not going to do individual shoutouts. There are many qualities about everybody that I love, and it could be endless.

But I am going to shout out about one thing: it's amazing that 20 people who might otherwise never meet did meet through Smash and got together to play yesterday. In the past year I've come to realize that, not only do I play Smash because it's a great game, but because there's a great community. I mean, lol, Mushroom Kingdom 2 in tournament? Level 9 Ganon? Amazing/ridiculous matches hyped up with cheering, hollering, hooting, and laughing...We're all playing this game together to have a great time.

And we do. We've got something great here.
*cries* this is so true, i love all you guys so much *sob*sniffle*

i remember Rob saying something like this at ihop

seriously.... i love all you guys so much. smash has seriously changed my entire life... for the better. i'm so glad that i started playing

I don't think that the attendance to Dook's event reflects anything in particular about the community. More accurately, I think, that Dook is an incredibly like-able guy.

If he hosted a baby-punching party, I can imagine people showing up.

Keep in mind that this Tucson tournament was announced a week before it was held. Get hype.

I figured out the reason why the audio isn't synced. Sorry Tai, but when you fussed with my settings, it didn't work. I tested it with some recording. AVI just records better with my equipment or something. Next time, I'm just going to run it with AVI.

LOL really?

that's really weird

when *I* record with AVI, the audio is off-sync, and when I record in MPEG, it works perfectly.

Ya step it up AZ! Axe is down by 2 votes! Get him the number one spot already!

I hate how most of the voting is more for popularity rather than quality. The Axe Effect is the most creative and awesome one I've ever seen lol

IKM2 was more entertaining because of the injected humor and credits. I am also biased because I am used to see Axe **** regularly so it is nothing new to me like it is to the rest of the world.

Robbbbbb upload those vids of my Falcon and Ganondorf, those are about the last time I played smash for a good while. That means I can pick out the consistent bad habits more accurately, which helps make up for my lack of practicing.

I mighttttt be willing to smash after work on Saturday after I get off work at 9pm. I think I want to sharpen my Sheik, Falcon, Falco, and Marth in that order. Everyone else is for fun but I am hoping to get back into a competitive level by the next tournament.

Please rage quit immediately if I start using any B move offensively with Falcon (except for sideB combos), reverse upB spam with Marth, or not dashdance with Sheik.

UpB out of shield is too **** though.

Don't ever let me resort to Puff. That's my best character against Sean and Jeff's mains but ugh.

Perhaps I should just spend the whole day doing videos at some point and get it all over with. I synced the Axe vs GG7 semis video to the audio. But that took 45 minutes just by itself, so it's a little tough.

@Sig-I don't particularly agree with like 75% of the rankings, however, I would agree that Kyle is better than me...for now.

Maybe against my Falco but I'm pretty sure my fox can consistently 3-4 stock your jiggs. In fact my Falco could probably do it too but I get lazy fighting jiggs (not thinking) which causes me to make mistakes and only one stock your jiggs, and losing occasionally. Still though, winning 80% without thinking is pretty good :)

You'll win every game against me if you fully try regardless of the matchup lol unless you started only playing brawl for a year and I started meleeing every day. Pulling a Sean and 3-stocking after a loss is at your demand. There's a huge gap between your rusty Fox and in-practice Fox, more so than any of your other characters. Your Fox and Sheik **** me harder than your Falco, but I think that's mostly my Falco experience being in AZ.

Your Yoshi's not that good though :p

(Statement that will motivate Sean to **** me with Yoshi next time we play)

If you disagree then why don't you make your opinion heard? lol.

Also Jeff, I liked Mind Reader most...sorry >_>. IKM2 is too goofy to be a good solid combo video and Axe effect is all stuff I've seen in person a lot, not to mention it sort of bores me.

Who cares though, everyone knows the greatest combo video ever is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntkoUSScfRc

I love the music LOL.

I definitely should move up in the Tucson rankings past Shiv, Rusty, and Elvis! I would say Spencer too, but we'll have to play again and see how our matches go since he hasn't played me with his Sheik in awhile.

See I disagree there. Despite the fact that I've seen it alot (although not enough...) I still love the creativity. Also V3ctormans editing is top level work. And the combos are genious to say the least. Mindreader was great yes, but Axe Effect was better quality.

And the Drephen combo vid was funny lol. But its more repetitve on its combos tha most lol. Although every combo video is repetitive aside from one. The best combo video of all time.

Shiv maybe, I still think if Dave's Stupid Rule wasn't on and he was allowed to go back to Fountain of Dreams that you would have gotten wrecked like the first match. I also don't use Sheik on you because I save her for if I need her in tournament against you haha I'm such a douchebag.

I mostly handle you with Fox anyways, and I also think that you're not as good as Shiv because even if you did beat him, you suck against things you know nothing about, you're good once you've played against a character like no tomorrow(Ganon,Fox, and Falco are really good examples). But when you played against BRIAN'S JIGGLYPUFF(I never even knew Brian USED Jiggs lmao) you barely 1 stocked him, this is in conjunction to the fact that I'm pretty sure Brian doesn't even play that much.

You're good Kyle but you still need a LOT more experience compared to me,shiv, and xander.

I honestly don't know what's more quality than having the MUSIC in your combo video say COME GET SOME right after you triple knee someone and taunt. Combos being genius....it's just Pikachu to me >.<.

And Drephen combo vid being repetitive is the point of Drephen lol. That's what he does like all day. And you're not ashamed to say you like the music in that vid either, because everyone does >_>.

I wouldn't say I got wrecked our first match, I was just kinda feeling out his Sheik because I haven't played him in awhile. He usually goes Fox on me, but he said he wasn't technically consistent enough that day so he chose her instead. So after I lost the first match, I figured him out and proceeded to beat him on my CP and his CP. Dave's Stupid Rule is there for a reason, and if we played there again I probably would have won anyway. I just didn't feel like taking that chance, plus Sheik usually does better against Peach on Battlefield compared to FoD.


Quoted from VaNz Stuff about Peach :
Stages we like (Peach): Final Destination, Mute City, Yoshi's Story, Dreamland (i guess)
Stages they like (Sheik): Battlefield, Jungle Japes, Corneria, Kongo Jungle 64

When it came to fighting Brian, I was also surprised he used Jigglypuff. Regardless, I still beat him 2-0 and the whole match was pretty much a big spacing battle in the air. Obviously, he still has skill in this game and he's used to fighting Peach's because of Turnip Tosser and Mr. J.

Well you should fight me with your Sheik anyway because she is your best character. Last time we played, in our many matches that we fought against each other, I managed to 4-stock your Falco back to back.

My record against Shiv is in my favor.
My record against you is in my favor.
My record against Xander is in his favor.

Right now Elvis is rusty and I beat him last time we played at the tournament in friendlies, against his Luigi and Marth.

My Peach has gotten a lot better and will continue to improve in the months ahead. :)

I prefer Fountain of Dreams to Battlefield. FoD is considered Sheik's best stage pretty much, and I honestly don't know what VaNz is talking about because Peach does just as good if not better than Sheik on Kongo Jungle ROFL. Also, Jungle Japes and Corneria aren't even possible for counterpicking so why does he have those?

And LOL @ your record vs me being "in your favor" as you claim. Like you only barely 1 stocking my Falcon while I ****ed up a combo that would have lead to ME WINNING? XD. You have a positive record against my lesser characters, like really, what makes you think that just because I **** around and use Falco and Falcon on you, that I actually MAIN them? I play Fox and Sheik and as far as I remember, I've basically always torn you in half with Fox and he's not even my best vs Peach, Sheik is, so then what do you think the outcome will be? Your matches with Rob are wayyyyy closer than they should be if you want to start thinking you're better than me. Shiv I might be able to understand, Elvis probly because he doesn't even play as well.

DSR is also being debated by the MBR and more specifically SCAR(I ****ing love you for this Scar). I also think that if Shiv played what is called "proper standard Fox" of grabbing a lot more than he usually does(he almost never does) and just uthrow uairs and stops with the unneccesary stuff that he'd beat you 100% of the time and he'd be really scary, possibly better than Xander and I.

Hey Sean...so, I'm going to be going to Phoenix this weekend, and not next. You are welcome if you want to come, but you'll have to find your own transportation for 2/14 :p
