Pro Impact BI-WEEKLIES - Calgary, AB

[mach5]

i want to play some yugioh! but then i dont have any cards. and everyones too advance haha

[Ermine]

Blah Blah Card Games Blah
Blah Blah Blah Attack Mode Blah
Blah Blah Blah?
Blaaaaaaah!

Yea my Yugioh deck is much better than my Magic but I don't play competitive X_X

[xpiritflare]

I was playing Yugioh cards with my friends today because I am just that cool...

I used to play yugioh, I pretty much stopped after the third booster pack haha.

I still have my deck, though it's pretty pathetic compared to the current ones.

Yea my Yugioh deck is much better than my Magic but I don't play competitive X_X.

Aha my deck in mtg wasn't really based on anything, just whatever I found good in the boosters I stuck in my deck.

About this bi-weekly, I'm not 100% sure, but I'm leaning towards being able to make it.
I'll give an official confirmation on Friday (well, evening or later, cause this post was technically on friday >.> )

[kithkin]

hahaha heres the main difference between yugioh and magic, actually i'll give you two.

yugioh = having the most powerful cards and getting them at right times

magic = work skill into knowing how and when to use what cards and making a deck in a particular style to try to gain an advantage.

yugioh=crappy
magic=awesome.

i used to play magic competitively, i dont really anymore, since i got back into smash. like i still would play, but i got no new cards and the new abilitys make no sense ._'

"I kill you, you lose" 'no wait, i reveal my trap card that reverses it, now you're dead and its unblockable'
-yugioh

[DEAN]

Put me down as confirmed for Saturday! Yay!!

[Ermine]

Yea but I find that Yugioh has better pictures on their cards X_X...

Actually... Nevermind... Pokemon wins in that section!

Go Furret and Jolteon! =D

Lol I still have a Pokemon Card Deck XD

[FalseFalco]

I play smash brothers

[MARIOWNAGE]

wtf is smash brothers?

[BackItch]

It's just like a collectable card game! You might like it!

Only instead of played on a table, it's on TV... and instead of taking turns, everything is in real-time... and instead of having a few cards in your hand, you have a controller... and instead of playing said cards, you press buttons on this controler... and instead of using your imagination to picture the destruction you cause, you can see it all unfold on-screen with special effects and everything... and instead of collecting cards, you collect "tech skills" and "mind games". It's pretty neat!

So as you can see... JUST like a card game.

It's a bit faster-paced than most collectable trading card games, but you should be able to adapt quite quickly.

[MARIOWNAGE]

Sweet, I just got my first booster pack and it came with infinite drillshines.

[mach5]

omg i want an anti infinite drillshine. that would be the way to beat a falco smash brothers

[nitro-blazer]

Lame, I only got a Kirby card, as well as the 'Gay your opponent to death' skill.

[xpiritflare]

I am confirming, as useless as this post may be by just saying that, well, it's not so bad ...
*cough*

[MARIOWNAGE]

John's right, stfu. itt the not gay version of ssbm

[FalseFalco]

lol as soon as theres money involved JOHNS THERE

[BackItch]

I have a pretty good deck built out.

See, I play my Peach card to start, with a "Turnip Spam" card face-up.
If the oppenent plays a "Crouch Cancel" card at any time, I reveal my "D-Smash" trap card that counters the "Crouch Cancel" AND deals around 70% damage. It's pretty savage.

On fast-faller type character cards, I can also repeatdedly play the "Up-Throw" card on the same turn.

You should see my deck! Why waste space with those "Tech Skill" cards when I can fill it with strats like these?

[FalseFalco]

I have a habit of spamming the "you can't hit me, I'm Falco" trainer card

[Ermine]

Chad! Your deck is seriously lacking the "Counter Sheik F-air" Trap Card!

EDIT: Awww man... I didn't feel good about today's performance at all... =(

I couldn't finish off the matches, and let them slip away X_X...

2v2 I just suck right now XD and I blame all our losses on me Levi X_X

Except that one time....

...

Anyways I guess I did a little better X_X

Also I found out that I live only like 10 mins away driving from Randall's.

=D

[xpiritflare]

2's were fun.

That is all.

[mach5]

2's were fun!

[Ermine]

Yea cus you guys won.

Silly Levi kept dying =(

X_X

[mach5]

the whole time i worried about comboing and saving john, but half the time he didn't need saving and thats all i ever practiced in doubles, was to save my partner

[MARIOWNAGE]

Team El Chocolate Diablo's gonna own up next time around, No jokes.

Happy Easter by the way.

[BKB]

Hello everyone.

I never knew there was a smash community in calgary.. do you still have tourneys?

I have a bunch of friends that play and would probably be interested in the competition.

peace

[mach5]

feel welcome to come. theres always a tournament every second sunday. if you look at the tournament calender you can see that it happens quite often. this tournamnet was strictly for improving skill and for fun, but resently randal started putting a 5 dollar entry fee and winner of the singles will get 50% of it. the other 50% goes into the production of proimpact.ca

We will be hosting our fourteenth bi-weekly Smash session on Sunday April 22nd, 2007.

"I picked up the Climbers after Kirby got the nerf so badly in Melee. At the time the game came out, I didn’t own a Gamecube and only competed against a passionate Marth/Samus player who was wavesmashing me all over the map when I still considered rolling a big part of my game.

I mained Falco for years until these three wise men of the tundra people showed me the way back home, and it’s good to be back."

—Mich (http://www.smashboards.com/member.php?u=32288), Two Climbers, Two Hands -- A video tutorial, 2006


For review:

Entry Fee: $5.00

Date: Sunday, April 22nd, 2007

Time: 1:00 PM

Place: #1, 103 Huntington Prk Grn NW

Contact No.: 869-3971

We hope to have everyone around for about 1:00 in the afternoon which will give us enough of a Sunday morning to prepare for everything. As it is in my nature to be a good host, I'll try and see to it that the environment is hospitable and no one is ever dehydrated to the best of my ability. However, you might find yourself thanking some of the original participants for that, as they have been kind enough to bring refreshments in the past. :)

The $5.00 entry fee from each participant will be divided in two halves: one will go to the winner of the tournament, the other will go towards the Pro Impact Treasury, the fund that keeps ProImpact.ca (http://www.et-cet-era.ca/ccsc/index.php) and the bi-weeklies themselves financially afloat. The entry fee is purposefully kept quite low and with a 16-player tournament, the winning pot is still only $40.00, which is hopefully enough to keep it competitive while still maintaining a casual and friendly environment. It is important that the tournament is accessible by everyone and that the cost is low enough that a brand new player won't be discouraged from coming based on the pretense that they have to win.

The telephone number above rings straight to my cell phone from a Calgary area code and I accept calls 24 hours a day...even from total strangers...so if you find yourself having nightmares at 4 in the morning and waking up in a cold sweat because you're not sure whether you can counterpick Rainbow Cruise at the next bi-weekly or not, have no fear! Just give me a ring and I'll roll haphazardly out of bed to answer your call. Maybe.

We would like to know who is attending before 1:00 actually rolls around too as well just in case we end up trying to seat 35 people who didn't sign up in one 3-bedroom home.

So, if you would like to attend, please post here. There will be a 16 player cap on this event and I will post the names of the confirmed and unconfirmed attendees below. If you find that all of a sudden it's Sunday and the bi-weekly starts in half an hour but you're still on the "unconfirmed" list, don't even worry about it. Unless we already have 16 confirmed players and another 6 on the waiting list before you, I'm sure we can find space.

If there's nothing else, we'll see you all when you get here!

Hey, BKB is a good Street Fighter friend of mine. Probably the best 3rd Strike player in the city.

I'll need to show your friends something about Melee before they come to the tourneys, BKB. It's pretty intense over there.

[mach5]

oh man, this biweekly lands right on april 22 which is someones birthday, i doubt i can make it =(

[Fox Machine]

Whoa M and Levi both beat Chad the Tyrant. It's a revolution!

LOL @ Carl's remark at John. Maybe John will come to every bi-weekly from now on?
Anyway, congrats John at winning what should be the first of many pots.

[mach5]

You were right fox machine, a little better mind games would throw off chad's peachyness. i just listened to what levi said, "CHAD YOU'RE SO PREDICTABLE" and i caught on

[BKB]

It's too bad my streetfighter skills don't help me at all in smash. :( But the best way to learn is to get your *** kicked right? So I'll stop sucking eventually.. I hope. lol

Teach me ganondorf Ricky.. is he good? I've still got the hots for Falco, but my execution is ****ty which makes for a ****ty falco.

If you could help me out with okizeme as well... ? :D

[shiro420]

hmmm since I'll be calgary during this ranbat I guess I'll donate $5

[xpiritflare]

oh man, this biweekly lands right on april 22 which is someones birthday, i doubt i can make it =(

Ah well, it's also the day Pokemon Pearl/Diamond are out, well, supposedly. I can't wait! :joyful:

LOL @ Carl's remark at John. Maybe John will come to every bi-weekly from now on?
Anyway, congrats John at winning what should be the first of many pots.

Nah I'll probably still miss some. But yeah haha Carl's a funny guy >.>;

[MARIOWNAGE]

Blarg, we only have 36 Brad free hours left. Whoops I mean spam free hours =P

[Infil]

Heh, I've told you before, Falco is probably the character that requires the most technical skill in this game. He's in the top two, at least. You can't just jump into 3s and pick up genei jin Yun!

Ganon is a pretty solid character, yeah, and he's much easier to play. He's slow, but not unbearably slow, and he has lots of good finishing moves. Maybe you should pick up Peach. She's Chun-like in this game. :)

[mach5]

PICK GANNONDORF! i play too many peaches and too many falcos, and are too use to all of them

[Ermine]

=) I have Diamond Pre-Ordered... But I will be Curling on Sunday so I can't make it... I probably will get the game when I get back on Sunday and then play Diamond like the rest of the day XD

[shiro420]

Ganons a beast

[FalseFalco]

Ganon is the good version of Bowser

Also, Fox requires MUCH more tech skill than Falco and so does a really good Peach.

Good. Peach. lol.
