UIUC Smashfest's

[_marth1_]

yeah, how about everyone who wants to play meet in the weston lounge with the big tv on friday night or saturday night

 

[AOB]

I may drop by on friday.

 

[telemaster]

hey marth1 friday evening would be cool but i dont have anything to bring though i.e controllers, ssbm, cube. how many people do you usually get?

 

[TheWalkingThano]

This sounds like fun, what time do you guys think you'll start by?

 

[telemaster]

marth1, name a time on friday. do you usually host?

 

[_marth1_]

probably start at like 7pm
i can bring my tv down, so we could have 2 setups if someone brings a cube

 

[telemaster]

aite that sounds good

 

[brickman]

Sorry viperboy, I don't know what to tell you pm me again to confirm that you have the right number.

As far as friendlies, 7pm, weston, friday, main lounge?

 

[_marth1_]

it looks like there is actually a tournament at the union on friday at 9pm, so we could probably still play from like 7-830 then go over there

 

[brickman]

Specifically where is the tournament at the union?

 

[telemaster]

whats the entrance fee for the tourney at the union? are there friendlies there also?

 

[AOB]

There is nothing on that illinites website. How's a guy supposed to find out about these things?

Is this doubles or singles at the union?

 

[viperboy_74]

andy you seem to be having some interest in this game lately...


to add, i'll probably have some sort of smashfest fairly soon.

 

[brickman]

Just keep us posted if there is any information on any tourny's in the U of I area.

 

[_marth1_]

i think these guys run the illinites now

[telemaster]

generally how much are entry fees?

 

[brickman]

Most entry fees at these tournaments are around $5 for singles, and if they have doubles $10. Nothing major, I'm sure you can swing it.

 

[_marth1_]

entry for illinites is free

 

[brickman]

Nice, Nothing to loose I guess. It is going to be a good *** time. Better start training.

 

[_marth1_]

yeah, so there's not anything happening at weston for now

 

[telemaster]

o ok i guess ill see some of you at the union on friday then and uh do we need to bring our own controllers? i dont have any cube equiment with me its all at home home.

 

[brickman]

Yea usually you bring your own controller, maybe someone there will bring an extra or something.

 

[AOB]

9pm is it???

I'm gonna have to check this thing out.

 

[brickman]

I hope this tournament is fun, haven't been to a tourney since the one in Indiana.

 

[telemaster]

9pm where in the union?

 

[_marth1_]

dont know, they have a map by the doors on the southside that will tell you, it's usually on the first floor somewhere though

 

[Hoefler]

Andy, do you feel like picking me up at all?

I'll pay....


...well out the ***.

 

[Robin60062]

Union

I heard that the Illinites Smash tourny's gonna be limited to U of I students-only.

I hope that's not true....lot more fun to play u guys. :/

 

[AOB]

Hum, well, even if foreigners are allowed, no, I don't feel like picking you up. But you could always hitch a ride with Grid. 217-898-9011
But then he'd probably stay here until Sunday morning and you'd be stuck.

--he probably doesn't want to come anyway.

 

[brickman]

I'm sure the guys who run the competitive gaming leauge wont really care if some people are playing who are out of town, worse comes to worse we can always play some friendlies.

 

[telemaster]

yeah friendlies are still cool, do people usually stick around for friendlies before and/or after the tournament?

 

[Hoefler]

Hum, well, even if foreigners are allowed, no, I don't feel like picking you up. But you could always hitch a ride with Grid. 217-898-9011
But then he'd probably stay here until Sunday morning and you'd be stuck.

--he probably doesn't want to come anyway.

aw nizice, that's just grizate.

 

[_marth1_]

they kick you out at 1am so there isnt much room after the tournament for playing

 

[brickman]

Whatever, I'm sure it will be fine anyways. Lets not get too concerned, lets just get some solid smash in.

 

[AOB]

Ughhh, maybe I should start practicing again? I just don't know if I have it in me. I'm so old and my bones groan with every step like a floor with loose boards, or the very creakiest of old wooden doors.

 

[brickman]

Yes, you should practice again, if you want give me a call some time and we can practice. We usually practice everyday. So Pm if you want to anytime.

 

[telemaster]

where do you guys practice?

 

[brickman]

I just practice over at my friends house, it's just me and him playing, not a big get together or anything.

 

[brickman]

So it looks like they are holding another tournament, this one is at Allen Hall on February 24th.

https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/ro/www/SocietyforCompetitiveFightingVideoGames/headlines.htm

That is the link to their page, maybe they will have more information as it gets closer. Practice up.

 

[Hoefler]

I might hit that.
