Then go vote. Otherwise, you're not helping by just begging.
C'mon everyone.
Let's show 'em we want Brawl over Gears of War.



Edit: We're five votes behind them! We need to beat Gears. Nothing against them, I like their game. Our game is just better.

We need to keep the support on, because otherwise they'll pass us. We need to get this entire board on this! We started today at 50 votes, and we're at 200 now, and I'd like to be at 400 by the end of tomorrow. :D

12/28: We jumped another 170 votes, to 379. The Brawl community is straight balls out on this, but we're still behind them. Post this on your boards, moderators. Let's at least show MLG that we can bring numbers and that we want our game back on the circuit!

12/29: We're at 419, and Gears is at 427. Post this link in your Regional forums if you haven't yet!

Already cast my vote. I'm really hoping people will at least try and show MLG that we're not done yet. We may or may not get this, but it's worth a shot at it if you ask me.

Already voted, but I'm not sure if that's an official poll for the circuit. Either way, voting on it shows how serious we are about a second chance for Brawl, so please get out there and vote :)

I'd love to see Melee on the circuit again as well but I want to see Brawl get another shot before that.

Not directly towards you, Lombardi, but...

we need more commitment than this, everyone. If you really want to see the game you play for fun back on MLG, even if this poll is just a chance, then you have to be more committed than this.
It took 10 minutes for me to sign up. And I have a slow computer.

Get hyped, isn't that what we as a Brawl community do best?

I voted. =)

Vote everyone, if Colbert can get a million people on Facebook to support him for an oddball presidential primary campaign, why couldn't we get at least 150 people to get Brawl back on the circuit? ^^

I'm glad this is going off without any trolling or stuffz.
Thanks everyone for showing support. I'm just a no name guy trying to keep a game I love on the circuit.

Oh, and I played LeeMartin once. It's of no relevance, but I feel like sharing my life story.
I was born in China...

Also ,this is a throwback game, meaning it's not officially on the circuit, right? Meaning, no extra sponsorship goodies/etc... like the other games. No upper thousand dollar prizes right off the bat. From what I understand.

Oh well, it's still a tournament.

EDIT:

Interesting, the poll asks "What games would you like to see appear on the circuit? (please do not vote for more than two)"

But the title is "throwback"...

I'm confuzzled.

I don't have the slightest clue, Krys.
Ask Alpha Zealot, maybe?
It's an obvious contradiction, unless their definition of throwback is to let one of the games back onto the circuit.

Throwback means the game will appear for one event as a side event. But if we push it hard enough we could manage making it more than just a side event.

To do that though, I think we would have to win this poll by an overwhelming margin...
and that's not looking likely at this moment. I tried bringing the link to the Falco social, but no one has responded to it yet. :/

At least we're finally getting more votes per hour than Gears.
For awhile, every time Brawl would get a vote, so would Gears, and I was quite sadface.

Post the link in your boards too, if you will.
Everything that you can think of to contribute towards having Brawl win.
It'll all be worth it if we get it back on the circuit.

And even if we can, it'll show MLG and Sundance that we're highly committed to our game.

I think that's another major reason that we got booted in the first place: community maturity.
If we can show him that we'll play by his rules and just win the vote, then maybe we'll get another chance.

This isn't an official MLG poll though is it? Its just made by a member of the forums. So if we win the poll and nothing happens for us, don't start trash talking MLG about it folks.

The site's acting up on my iPhone, so I won't be able to vote until late tonight at the earliest, but I fully support this. Regardless of whether or not MLG officializes this, it would clearly be a great way for us to show our support and come together.

This thread title should be changed, though--it doesn't scream "Take action." It screams inquiry. You should change the title to something like "Vote Brawl for Circuit '11."

As a Smasher who wasn't able to attend any MLGs and was looking forward to finally attending one, I can't say how happy it makes me feel a random Smasher picking up the torch.

Great job bringing this to everyone's attention.

It may not be. But if the admins or whoever is in charge see the topic, then we just might have a chance at it. It is on the MLG site after all. Also, please read the first quote in my signature.

Thanks for the praise, Zigsta. :D
I...don't know how to change the thread title. XD
But I was going for the whole, "challenge" rather than "inquiry".
I'm just like you, I'd just like to attend an MLG event and play some Brawl.

Edit: Oh, and we're currently 55 votes behind. Perhaps I should put this in the OP.

Just another day.
I voted. I actually enjoyed MLG despite being screwed in brackets lol. I honestly think that if we actually committed to getting much more support, we'd have much better chances and possibly solve more of the problems MLG stated.
