For Brawl, I know I said there was going to be an amateur bracket, but unfortunately with only four set ups for Brawl to do pools, the tournament was running way too late for me to get it going. By the time I was ready to make the bracket, everyone that would have qualified for it had already left. Now, at least they all got to play six matches in pools. If we had more set ups, it would have happened. I'll try harder next time.

Next tournament will be July 31st. Same Bat Channel, same Bat Time. Same events.

I had a lot of fun at this tournament, and made me extremely happy to see such a nice turn out for the tournament. There were things I'm aware I could have done better, and I will strive to do so to make the NomNomNom even better. I want to thank everyone for coming, and I hope that you all show up again for the next tournament. In case I didn't make it clear enough, Nom's will always be on the last Saturday of the month at Dibbz.

Also, I truly believe that in Louisiana in order for Smash to survive as a competitive game Melee and Brawl must be wed together as a hot lesbian couple. Though they are different games, our community bleeds members into both events because we are all competitors at the end of the day. I'm already considering playing Melee in the next tournament, just for a change of pace. Hopefully more of you Melee players will experiment with Brawl.

We can truly make this tournament series even better. If everyone hypes it up, every month we can easily push past the 30 person mark in Melee, and the 40 person mark in Brawl. If we get more people coming to our tournaments then we'll start to get an out of state player to come. People will come, if we keep this hyped. Tell the people that you play with how much you enjoyed the event, and get them to come. Challenge old Melee players and demand they come destroy people at the tournament. Let's get the scene rolling forwards full strength. This isn't about the success of either game in our state, but rather the survival and expansion of our joint community.

good **** vaughn and Ken in melee.... i also played mario in melee but it doesnt really matter :/ vaughn is too good

ahhhh *** brawl i still think i played well in brawl.. i had close matches with rickyb b and gio kinda but mura and ran just ***** my ***

Shoutouts!!!

Ran - Good **** running this tourney. It was a lot of fun and very well-formatted considering our tourneys haven't been too big for a while. I'm glad I was able to help you out too. And thanks for the advice. It was very helpful in the long run.

Arcrazia 15x - Our match was ********, but fun at the same time. I now see how you guys get the adrenaline rush from playing this game. It was intense. Good ****.

Ken - I still hate your Marth, but awesome job getting 2nd. You're getting better every time I see you.

Zakosai - Your Ganon legit. Sorry I had to camp you so much though. =[

Mark - I remember now why I hated using Zelda against Falcon. Eww...

Lee - Didn't get to play you at all, but it was nice talking to you as usual.

Pritch - Sorry I couldn't stay for Settlers, but I was still really tired from the night before. Next time for sure. I promise.

Cyphus - U bi.

Avery - Thank you for not banning Poke Floats on me. lol

EET - Our Zelda vs. Peach matches are still fun as hell. Thanks for playing that with me.

John - Toon Link dittos are really fun. Hopefully I'll be able to at least take a round off of you next time though. I was close in the second game.

Jio - Your trash talk is as awesome as ever. And I think your Lucario could get really mean one day.

JNig - Wish I woulda talked to you.

Mura - Zelda fans unite!!!

Patrick - I could tell it's been a while since you fought my Zelda, and even longer since you've used a space animal against her. I think you'll get me next time.

Pierre - Sucks that one mistake screwed up your whole stock, but that's how smash goes a lot of the time.

RickyB - Very good seeing you again. Good matches in pools too. Hopefully we'll see you in Thibodaux soon.

Curlz - Not a big fan of Rainbow Cruise for MK, but I'll take that win cuz I fought hard for it.

ShyGuy - You're still good in my book, even though you haven't played in forever.

Sudai - U bi.

Dylan - U bi.

Rickee - U black.


The only thing that woulda made this tourney experience even better is if Nick and Roni were there. Looking forward to the next one too.

unknown was Mark (falcon).
fun teaming w/ shyguy. u def held ur own. our 3rd place didn't get paid out, so no '3.50' needed
good job to pritch, i think he's underrated.
zak's ganon is amazing. i apologize for our brawl matches. B) i want a good melee set w/ u next time.
loved watching vaughn's zelda as always.
i'm really not crazy about 60/30/10 payout, but noone else has a problem with it. we already know lee is going to win everything. payouts should encourage OTHER people to want to enter. 50/30/15/5 is a good settup.
i look forward to watching all the brawl vids. wish melee coulda got recorded, i was playing good until ken wrecked me.

I forgot to write the payouts in the flier, and so I just went with the default. The next tournament will use something similar to that.

Possible Melee recordings @ next Nom?

Mura - Im looking at you for this, your usually the media guy xD

GJ Ryan on running the tournament. Also, the loud speaker idea was classic xD.

I got caught up on some things and couldn't make it back. I wanted to do melee teams =X.

Yeah, I'm definitely down for recording things next time. I got a couple of the Melee doubles recorded, except I have no Idea who was playing lol.

If Brawl and Melee are always gonna be scheduled to run at the same time, then I'll only be entering Melee next time.

Laffy guys are fun as hell, although I didn't get to learn most of their names. Wes's DK is too good.

I have to check the calendar, but I think I might be in indiana for the next NOM.

1: Lee Martin - Thanks for the tips throughout the day on certain matchups. I'll have your yellow yoshi soon. <3
2: Jnig - I will get you down to one stock eventually. Lol. GGs in our pool.
3: Cyphus - Our Lucas dittos were too fun. Lol. We need to do that again sometime soon. I hope you come back into the scene.
4: Hyro - My friends and I enjoyed hanging out with you. in between matches. Haha. I'll see you at MechaCon.
5: Vaughn - You took control of that boat like crazy! Even if you don't like this game, you're still really good at it. Our set was really fun and I hope to play you in serous brawl again soon. :]
5: Ran - Thank you so much for running this tourny. My friends didn't even mind that it ran way past when we were supposed to leave. We all had alot of fun and we're glad you put this together. I'll be at the next NOM fer sure.
7: Arcadia - I'm sorry I stole your nugget. :]
7: Jiovanni - I didn't get to play you today but I saw your Kirby **** against Savon and it was really fun to watch. Good ****!
9: Ricky B - You've gotten better, but I can still **** you.
9: Zakosai - I didn't get to play your legendary Ganon. D:
9: Savon - GGs in friendlies throughout the day. I hope to see you at more events.
9: Booby - grklsjewlksjvgreijgrleijblwekjvlkfjerlibj
13: ISBS - <3

Booby: BOOBY! Chill guy, fun matches.

Batto: Hail Jesus?

I had too much fun, it's great to see so many Cajuns, for both Brawl and Melee, turning out. The guys in my pool were awesome.

I'll be recording and uploading matches throughout the week, so make sure to check them out at my YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/JNig91

I think I did decent for my first real tournament. I will make sure to step my game up for the next meet-up.
Jio is going DOWN. However I need to pick a secondary so that people who counter Snake don't totally kick my *** again.

A few shoutouts:
Laffy guys:
Ken- Yea we didn't meet in a tourney match but we did play a bunch of friendlies I think. It's always a blast.
Ryan- I think your a laffy dude. But those friendlies we played were so fun. I couldn't stop laughing at all the random **** because I was so tired.
Westley(sp?)- we played some friendlies too if I remember right. Your dk was gettin good. I wanna rematch your jigs though.

other area peeps.

Mark and Colby?- I think it was you two I played double friendlies with. Idk though. If I got the right people in mind, it was alot of fun.

Ricky- probably the funnest matches I've ever played. No joke. You probably won't remember though. You were kinda gone..... If ya know why I mean.

Uh Ran, I only used Diddy and Zss once against you. I used a lot of Pit and Falcon. Hope you can fix that.

Alright, fixed.

When I finish uploading them all, I'll make a video thread for this tourney.

I thought about saving match 2, but I didn't want to expose you that hard. great stuff though man. your better than ever now....

Btw, idk if I did a shout out to Hyro.

So yea, Hyro: good **** in our match. It was so awesome and fun. I'll get you next time though.


Hopefully next time I make it to one of these I won't be in that ridiculous boot. I also hope I can at least make it to the top ten. I feel like I've improved alot since that first laffy tourney I went too. Maybe I'll actually be able to get some money back from Ken. Who knows. What I do know is I'm grateful to each and every person who hosts a ssbm tourney down here in Louisiana. I thought that wheni moved back from Indiana I would have to go all the way back just for a Tournament. But I lucked out I guess. Anyways, I'm done rambling. Can't wait for the next melee tourney!

wheres our first set jnig? :D

Our first set was on someone else's Wii. I only took replays off of that first setup, which was Ran's.

I finished uploading what I have, I'll make a video thread now.

EDIT: I made the video thread! http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=279520

If anyone has replays from the tourney on their Wii, could you please send them to me? I only have replays from Ran's setup on TV 1.

Is anyone here going to go to FAP?


You should.

lols. 17th place was a falcon.!

Haha, who did Lee use Falcon and Pit against?

And yay, Cyphus is back!

Falcon against Jnig. I love Falcon vs Wario. :D
Pit against Arcadia and almost all of pools.

Dang. Guess Ally's not the only one, huh?

Any bracket+pool results for Brawl singles?

Nice to see Dr. Mario get 3rd out of 25 in Melee.

cyphus is back
