melee?

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

I can be there around 6. I work until 5. T_T

random side question: how are you guys using the word "scrub"? i thought that FGCs used it to denote someone who manufactures limits on gameplay/complain about existing mechanics (e.g. "ledgehogging is cheap", "shine is soo OP", "stop camp spamming projectiles!", etc.). you can be good, you can be bad, you can be new to the game, you could be a veteran; regardless, you can still be a scrub. that was my understanding of it, but it seems like many people use it synonymously with "newbie/newb/noob/etc.". is that how people use the word these days? i'm ok if it is, but just wanted to verify the linguistic creep if it indeed happened :-p.

 

[Pumpinz]

I assume Mars was using it with the same meaning as "Newb".

yes

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

Unfortunately, not everyone is familiar with Sirlin's work, and people often use "scrub" and "newb" interchangeably.

I want there to be Melee brawl and PM

I want there to be Melee brawl and PM

need a set up?
i got melee & a crt

 

[Remioli]

I might be down to play this evening. Working 8-5 is more tiring than I thought.

Anyways, I generally consider my entry fee a pot donation. And FanX is a bit too much of a donation for me to make. But I'll still be there to hang out. Also I live just a few minutes away from the guest house where FanX is if people wanna practice there before or after.

 

[Z'zgashi]

I use scrub to refer to devon

We prolly won't need a CRT but definitely bring melee and a cube/wii. To be safe you can bring your tv and just leave it in the car or something.

Always think of it as an investment. Playing against people competitively in actual tournament settings teaches you a lot.

 

[Sinz]

I use scrub as a reference to the fact I picked up a janitors shift on saturday

 

[Tuesday]

I've always used scrub to mean someone who knows the game and probably has played a long time, but isn't good and talks more than plays, and noob for someone who hasn't played for very long, regardless of skill.

 

[Superw0rri0]

I got a question for all of you . Just a funsies question for funsies conversation.

When you pick up Smash 4 for the first time what character are you going to play first? What characters are you excited to play?
For me I'm going to play ZZS first and I'm really excited for ZZS, Shiek, and Greninja.

Last question... it's probably too early to decide on this but which character are you hoping to main?
For me I want to main ZZS.

 

[socandrewcer]

That's actually a tough question cuz there's so many!

The first guy I'm gonna play is mega man. I want to main mega man too but I'm afraid there are already going to be a ton of mega mans.

probably.... honestly... I think mega man is going to be a very viable character. His edge guarding is going to be sick with his over b. Those spike disc things can go in 8 directions.... his fsmash is perfect to counter horizontal recovery at stage level... his up air counters floaties... and his down air counters vertical recovery... so much potential. The only problem that I see with him is that he might have trouble getting people off stage without grabs.

 

[Mr. Fox]

I'll play Villager first, he looks fun as heck. I'll probably main Fox, but DK and Ike if he gets revealed are in the running.

The same character I always play.

Random.

 

[Tuesday]

I'm never going to even try a character other than Rosalina. If she ends up sucking I'm going to have to be a low-tier hero because she will be my main whether she's good or not.

 

[Z'zgashi]

Wow, way to shaft the ICs, what did they ever do to deserve such a rejection. Not even a single chance.

 

[Tsuteto]

Still all about Zelda. Though WFT will be fun too

 

[Tuesday]

I have a different main for each game. You don't see me playing ICs in Brawl.

 

[Remioli]

Wii fit trainer.
#talk****getfit

 

[Z'zgashi]

I dont see you playing Brawl in general.

 

[Tuesday]

I dont see you playing Brawl in general.

I've entered a brawl tournament here and there. When they aren't really expensive. I mostly play Falco.

 

[adlp]

Sonic, ZZS, WFT, Fox and of course my diddly K

 

[Tomacawk]

hopefully i can get my neckbeard grown in and some acne before smash4 comes out so my megaman can be legit

 

[Z'zgashi]

I dont even like Mega Man, come at me.

#LemonsFired

 

[Remioli]

I'll probably main Goku.

 

[Superw0rri0]

I'd also like to add Villager to my list.... too much hype... and I can't wait to make villager meme jokes. I mean seriously.... his final smash builds a tiny dark house around you then blows it up.... how is this not evil?!?!?!? AND JUST LOOK AT HIS EYES AND HOW HAPPY HE HIS AND HOW HE CHEERS AS HE PUTS YOU IN THIS CRAMP DARK PLACE AND BLOWS YOU UP!!!!! He drops bowling balls on your head! He catches your tools and uses them against you! He buries people alive and drops a tree on them! HE PULLS THE GRASS OFF YOUR LAWN!!!! HE"S EVIL!!!! And he just flies away with balloons. I CAN"T WAIT TO PLAY HIM!!!

inb4 caps

 

[BillNyeTheSamusGuy]

so who's actually playing in the tournament tomorrow?

gonna play samus in sm4sh btw

 

[Tomacawk]

i will be both there and square

 

[Remioli]

I'm probably not going to, but I'll be there. If there are a ton of people in brawl, I'll play. Maybe get one easy win to boost my confidence. But more likely, I'll do friendlies in whatever. There probably won't be that many friendly stups for a while though.

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

I am undecided on tomorrow.

 

[Sinz]

Someone come up to my apartment and play smash bros with me.

 

[ZerosUT]

Small brawl fest at my place tonight in preparation for FanX. 5300S 1300E, Around 7

yeah, pretty much the same, I'm bringing a setup early tomorrow for PM friendlies though. Hopefully they won't need it for melee/brawl if they get behind on their schedule.

 

[Tsuteto]

We shouldn't. The biggest thing we'll need is TVs, really. I literally have 20 set ups that I'm providing, just not enough TVs. I'll have two set ups dedicated to Project M, so we will see on other things

 

[Snap.]

I can bring a CRT and a projector tomorrow. Could also use the projector for the bracket if you wanted to do that.
