Not I, said the Andy. I actually think a smash kiosk on Quad Day is kind of silly... although 4 years ago I'm sure I wouldn't have.
You can probably do just about everything without physically being on campus, can't you? Why don't you give it a whirl?

Yeah, I really don't want to start it either, but I would be an officer. And on that note, even if I were to start it, I would need two other people fill the prerequisite positions as officers. We don't really need to smash on the quad on Quad Day I suppose, but it would be neat to at least have a table and attract new people.
On the other hand, if everyone feels we're fine with the group we have now that's something different and we don't need an RSO. I just thought that we needed to be an RSO in order for us to maybe rent rooms in the union for tournaments and such things. And if that's our only purpose then we don't need to be at Quad Day.

More tournaments and room renting ability would be nice, and we could at least prevent our group from facing each other in the first round every time. Those reasons alone are worth an RSO to me, although I admit I probably won't be the one doing most of the work. Whatever you guys decide to do/not do for Quad Day I'll support.
Still, I hope we don't deter orgs like the Illinites people and others from still holding their own Smash events now and then. I saw this as being more of a supplement to satiate our Smash cravings in between those random fundraiser tournaments. And maybe also to get some new blood around here. I definitely see a willingness to play this game at UIUC. I for one felt that the random people at tournaments kept getting better throughout the past year.

I don't mind trying to squeeze into the Weston or Allen lounges or whatever--trying to rent a campus-owned room for SMYM 2 was a nightmare, never mind the fact that you have to rent them in advance, and that you still can't have cash prizes.

Where are people living next fall? Just curious cause I'm way over on first and I think the twins said they're somewhere north of green or something. It'd be cool to have a centrally located location with hopefully free parking for weeklies or something.
And let's get back to those Sunday afternoon weeklies. I never do anything Sunday afternoons anyway and it's better than using up those precious Friday and Saturday nights.

I suppose it doesn't really matter now. If we really want to start a tournament we could probably just organize it through SoCom. And if we want to smash on the quad, which I know some of us do, we can just do it at a random time when the sprinklers aren't on.
And don't worry about it Deku, it's just that we don't get as many tournaments as we'd like, but we have smashfests at least once a week.
And I'm still living in freaking ISR room 308.

Hey Jon, it's Richard here from Townsend 471 last semester. Me and Tim (if you remember him) are going to be living in Wardall 907. About two other Asian smashers are living next door to us. In Townsend there's going to be Frank who plays the pink/white C. Falcon as well as the guy who hosted the TIA tournament in April. CrimsonQueso and two other smashing Asians (The Doctor Mario that doesn't use any special techniques & Phil) are going to be staying in a frat but they'll be over in my room often for sure.
For recognition purposes Frank & CrimsonQueso are the pair known as "Please Don't Put Us Against The Twins". Why do I keep saying Asian? It's because we're that random group of Asian smashers that go to the tournaments. It's hard to miss us, we're an awkward bunch.
Anywho, if you guys start up the RSO we're all probably going to end up joining it...
Hey Deku, do you know where you're going to be living yet?

To everyone in ISR and the surrounding area, once again my door will be open if I'm in there and I'm always up for smash. You can also message me on aim if you wanna play.

Hey guys, just to let you know, myself, Dave O and another friend of ours will have a house next year. An actual house, and while I don't want to speak for everyone in my house yet, I myself would be up for holding friendlies with some people from last years tournaments and maybe some from this year. As far as getting the RSO together we should probably find out who all is coming down a little early so we can meet up and discuss the possibility of it. I myself should be down on about the 15th of August. Let me know what you want me to do.

I'm tempted to go. I have to work that day and it's an hour drive for me, so it's a toss up. We would have to be there before 4 right?

I probably wont end up going since it is my birthday and the tournament is so awkwardly placed in the middle of the day.

Oh wait, I don't have to work that day. There's a good chance I'll be there. Hope to see many UIUC smashers representing if they can make it.

I think I am going to go to the friendlies at Big C's. It is closer, and at a more reasonable time.

hey, I'm at U of I too and would love to play. I'm at Allen hall, btw. I'm pretty sure I went to marth1's apartment a couple of times (w/ robin) and did some doc/bowser action. It might have been someone else though. Hopefully I'll have more time this semester than last.

Does anybody have any ideas for where to smash when we get back?

This is not entirely confirmed, depending on what my roommate think, but we might be able to have a little something at my house. If not, we could maybe work on getting something at the union?

it looks like we'll need like 3+ tvs for the first one since this hasnt been done in a while...so anywhere we can fit that in would work for me
If no one has a (big) apartment to spare, what about Allen, or failing that, Weston? Anyway, the Union is a no.
