It's been a long time coming. That's right. Weeklies. Upstate NY. They're here.

Weekly Smashfests/tournies for all of Upstate NY. I spoke to Cura, and we're both in agreement that WNY and CNY are tight enough to be considered one region. They're at our tournaments, we're at theirs, we're practically one region now.

It's time to ascend to the next level with weekly Smashfests. We're just starting to get on the map as a region, and my goal is to eventually have WNY become not just on the map, but a power region. A top region with our top 10 being able to place in national tournies, both Melee and Brawl. It's so possible, and I know everyone else wants it too. That's what's inspired me to start these training events. We're already improving, now it's just a matter of how fast we can become great, and these weeklies will push us to that level much faster.

These will be held at my apartment in Rochester on some weekends, and Cura's apartment in Syracuse on the other weekends. We'll probably take turns, but we'll start off playing it by ear to get feedback.

My apartment is surrounded by food and convenience stores, so if you end up staying from Friday till Sunday (Which some people do btw) you won't need to worry about how you're going to eat. My apartment is pretty big, and there's floor space for tons of people so spending the night on a Friday or a Saturday won't be a problem.

This will be for Melee and Brawl in case anyone is wondering. I'll be playing both games and I know other people will. Maybe some Melee players can give Brawl a chance and Brawl players can play some Melee. Either way, we need people to bring setups so everyone can play. I'm planning on using 2 rooms for this, but I'm not worried about people bringing setups, they always do.

There will be at least one recording station, if everything goes well we'll have one for each game. That's the plan.

If we have enough people, we'll do dollar tournaments or even pride tournaments. We'll do goofy random tournaments and force the good players to team with the not so good players just to see wtf happens. We'll probably order pizza and watch livestreams of tournaments we're not at on the big screen...It's just a great time to improve and grow tight as a community. Not that we're not already, but either way we definitely need to chill more anyways.

And...If anyone dares they can join me in my guilty pleasure...Mario Party.

But, we'll cross that bridge when the time comes.

When?

The official time for these will be Saturday at 6 PM. However, I'm sure people will show up early and even on Friday sometimes, and anyone can feel free to do that at least at my place. I'll be here all the time, so just give me a call if you're coming early.

If out of staters come, be prepared to have a good *** time and get practice from the area's best players.

PikaPika!

Hype this up. This is gonna help every crew in Upstate get better. No more Western/ Central division we need to start getting better as a whole and helping each other out more.

Yeah who's coming to this, start confirming so I can have an attendance list. There's gonna be a bunch of people staying the night after the tournament next weekend. Everyone and anyone is welcome to stay. I encourage it :-)

Friday we had liked 8 people, last night between 8-10. Whoever isn't here definitely needs to be at the next one after the tourney next weekend. We had brawl and Melee setups. So much fun.

Yeah, I'd be able to come sometimes. I have spring break the week of march 20th, so it's pretty much guaranteed.

I'll be at all the Jesse ones, and as many of the Syracuse ones as I can.

So pissed I missed this week's Jessefest, but its all gooood.

For anyone who hasn't been to one of Jesse's apartment smashfests, THEYRE AS LIVE AS IT GETS.

Its like smash nirvana for a weekend/day/however long you want to stay.



Mad happy we're doing weeklies, I'm open to money matches and cheap tournies for sure.

Okay, won't be this weekend unfortunately, but when I do get out to Jesse's for one of these...Mario Party is definitely happening. Especially if we're talking Mario Party 1. Classic, and amazing.

These smash fests at Jesse's usually start Friday night? If so I could probably show up this week, sounds like a blast. Been training my balls off, gotta taste the fruits of me labor by laying the **** down on *****es. Or at least see if I've improved. . . . .

Makes me cry that I live in Albany.
Where exactly? =)
Also what game(s) do you play?

Feel free to hit me up on aim, I'm slowly working on building up the smash scene in the albany area and I'm one of those rare smashers with a license AND a car so I can make getting together for practice and travel to tourneys happen :p
