Cool man, is it Melee or Brawl that you play?

I'll inform you of the next session that happens
I play melee with about 2 friends, we're looking for some new faces to play against so we can improve. I might be up for brawl as well, but I already said I don't play it much anymore.

Cool, let me know of any future smashfests, and I'll see if I can come :)

Don't play much Brawl anymore, and when I do I don't do it online, it irritates me no end online, sorry
Well that's fair enough, I know the lag can be quite bad (well that was my excuse for losing anyway :smirk:) At the same time I'd feel quite awkward just turning up at someone's house though XD

haha it seems a little weird at first but you get used to it :) they're just someone who shares an interest with you, and you'll probably make a few friends while doing it.

Cool, is that 16th or 19th? I'll be able to do one of those days, send me a private message with the details and I'll let you know if I can make it. If I can get my smash mates to come, are they welcome too? I reckon at least one will be able to, but the other is a medic so he gets kinda busy :(

Be interesting to see how we've improved, because we're all relatively the same pretty much but I know we are better than we were.

There can be definitely one other person coming with me, need to hear back from the other.
I can be at new street station in Birmingham earliest 11:38, then a train leaving Birmingham at 18:19 would be the earliest train to get back home, though the latest I'd want to leave it is the 18:52 train.

What I'm saying is the longest I'll be in Birmingham is from 11:38 to 18:52, let me know how long you want us so I can book the train tickets, and also any other details would be nice, such as which bus we'd need to get etc.
unless you want to meet us at the station? just a thought.

Two options:

1. We go to my house, I have one set up here, it's a short bus ride away from town, buses are pretty frequent too.

2. We go to this small LAN place, they have a bunch of CRT's so we can get more than one set up on the go. The place charges us £3 per person.

I'll let you guys know by Monday if I can still do this.

I can bring a Gamecube and a melee copy if we go for option 2, which may be better if 3 of us can come. I honestly don't mind, but let us know tomorrow which'll be best. I can give you my mobile number if it makes it easier to contact us

There's definitely 3 of us, so yeah, option 2. What time do you want us so we can book train tickets to new street? And how long can we stay?

We got the place til' 17:00, but sometimes they just let us in for longer. Get to New Street for like, 11:38 like you were planning before I guess, that's a good time.

Wednesday or Saturday we doing?

Stop hating hater.

Yes Wednessday 10.54 in Birmingham is the best bet. That's the earliest Off-peak train out of Beeston, that leaves at 09.43 btw "FoxoF". Can we get the details to meet up? What's the place called?

Yep, cool see you then.

And I'm glad someone recognises it, and by 'it' you mean the magic dog called Jake. Gonna have to teach him the joys of Adventure time. Or just link him a video.

OOOOOOO, hang on, I've actually seen an episode of that before at a friend's house a few months ago...but gotta say, it was the WIERDEST show I've seen.

Had me sort of laughing a bit, mainly because of how wierd it was tho.

It was the episode where the boy found robots and stuff, and made them work, and then they turned evil. And then there was a massive monster at the end which sucked up all those cloud things. See, I sound like such a wierdo describing it

Haha! those cable matches. My Pichu will beat your Fox one day...

We all had a lot of fun yesterday, so thanks, and I at least learned a lot from our matches.
I'll upload those recordings (the ones that worked anyways) after my exams in about a week.

I'll keep in touch about June, I made a thread about here: http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=322449
It's probably most likely going to be Sunday 10th of June, but I honestly can't say for sure.

hopefully play again soon either way :)

I'm alive.

The new GlobalGaming place has opened, it's a 5minute walk from New Street (much closer compared to the other location), as for CRT's though the times I've been there they only seem to have 2 (although they might keep the others in the back or something.

I'll be there again next week Sunday so I'll definitely ask as to how many CRT's they actually have and then I'll get to arranging a tournament, it's been far too long.
