ZENITH 2014 - Aug 2-3 - Brooklyn, NY

[AthensHorseParty]

did you or did you not contact caneut

No I didn't. I actually have no money and I'm selling all of my stuff and gonna live out of my van / my friend's couch for a while. I still need to get a few more craigslisters to buy **** before I know I will have enough gas money. I am probably gonna send out apps everywhere in the country, but I used to avoid the Northeast because it's hella expensive, but then again NY's minimum wage is like 10 dollars and I made 8.50 here for the last 6 years. Atlanta has a really low cost of living though and people are hiring my dumb friends right out of college (or right out of dropping out of college) for like 40k software dev jobs so that seemed pretty enticing.

Except all the kids at tech/state just play Melee and PM. Boo to that. Thanks for the encouragement clubba, if I'm stuck at home watching y'all on stream I'll keep that in mind.

 

[Annex]

Donate plasma. I make $400 a month doing that.
Living out of your car also isn't as bad as it sounds as long as you have a smartphone and a gym membership.

 

[Sedda]

lmfao wtf annex

Athens what kinda stuff are you into? youd be suprised at the kinda skills companies need. If youre willing to travel anywhere within the continental US, you'll find some gold

Lol
Vermont?
Maine?
PA?
Delaware?

New Hampshire is super cheap (but if you hate freedom stay the **** away from here pls, the last thing we need is a bunch of studstill liberals who think the government should start taxing people and making seatbelt/gun/helmet laws, traffic cameras, red light cameras, eminent domain, eliminate jury nullification, etc.)

 

[Nintendude]

64 doubles is on the registration site now.

Also, just to give some more details:

Singles will be RR pools.
Doubles will be straight bracket.
Both doubles top-4 and singles top-8 will be on the main stream.

 

[Maliki]

Thanks for all the work you did to get us that nintendude. It's looking good!

 

[Fireblaster]

As of now I'm looking for housing and a 2v2 teammate

 

[Annex]

lmfao wtf annex

sedda confirmed for not knowing the struggle

 

[Herbert Von Karajan]

doubles top-4

you mean grand finals?

 

[Sedda]

sedda confirmed for not knowing the struggle

dude I lived in central america for like 10 months, a couple of which were super tough. I was laughing at the suggesting. I'm trying to help a brother get a job and save some plasma.

edit: thanks for pushing for doubles, nintendude, even though Im not going

 

[Annex]

healthy lifestyles and a reasonable plasma count are for scrubs
gotta keep it scuzzy and barely sustainable. borderline homeless even

...

thanks for this mike, but if someone already registered what's the deal with registering for dubs?

 

[Nintendude]

thanks for this mike, but if someone already registered what's the deal with registering for dubs?

Email apex.series@gmail.com and ask them to add it to your registration.

Schedule is still in the works, but it's roughly as follows:

Saturday late morning to early afternoon: 2 or 3 waves of pools (depending on how many entrants)
Saturday late afternoon: doubles to top-4 teams
Saturday evening: bracket to top-8
Sunday morning: top-4 teams
Sunday afternoon: top-8 bracket

64 should have a VERY favorable schedule this year in terms of stream time and stuff. PLEASE try to support the event and bring in big numbers to show them it was worth it!

 

[KnitePhox]

My car is bringing 2 full setups, setup thread/count??? ty nintendude

 

[Shears]

Who wants to team? Or can I register for teams without a teammate and set it up there?

 

[Nintendude]

You will have to have your teammate confirmed before registration closes. I'm making all the brackets /pools in advance and I can't do that if people are finalizing things at the door.

btw if you already regged and want to add teams just reply to the email I sent you.

 

[KoRoBeNiKi]

I'll team with you. Falcon/Pikachu if controller.

 

[AthensHorseParty]

There's a blood plasma place right downtown here but I'm always really iffy about it because A) I hover right around the minimum weight you need to donate and B) I don't know if they check your plasma for THC levels or whatever but I smoke a lot of weed and I was worried they'd get pissed and refused to pay me if I donated some heady plasma.

But anyway, Smash bros, right?

 

[Shears]

I'll team with you. Falcon/Pikachu if controller.

Cool lets kick ass. I'm going to be blue hat pika on the controller, are you going to have a kb with you?

 

[Annex]

 

[Cobrevolution]

we're at 26 right now guys. i'll update the OP in a bit

 

[Nintendude]

26 is pretty good. I really would like to hit 64 though.

 

[KoRoBeNiKi]

Cool lets kick ***. I'm going to be blue hat pika on the controller, are you going to have a kb with you?

I will but I actually have a better Pikachu on controller

26 is pretty good. I really would like to hit 64 though.

I blame the location, too hard to get to/expensive hotel.
.

 

[Herbert Von Karajan]

honestly the only reason i am going is that someone is driving me and i have on campus housing with some non-smash friends

Me and Koro have dibs on blue team throughout the doubles tournament. @ Nintendude you can consider this tag as a formal reception of this notice in writing. Failure to comply will result in any opponents disqualification from the doubles tournament.

 

[Nintendude]

So what really notable players are confirmed going? The presence of notable players could have an impact on how much gets streamed.

 

[Herbert Von Karajan]

SK, Killer, LD, Boom, Z, Kero, Wizzrobe??

 

[Cobrevolution]

^firo too.

why don't we do what you did last year and mark the matches in pools that are to be streamed, and if someone doesn't want to play on cam then we sub a match in?

 

[KoRoBeNiKi]

Id like a stream match if possible, my previous one was vs moyashi and I'd prefer a matchup I don't loathe lllll
