I've decided to make this thread for the SW as well seeing as we don't have a particularly big scene in Southampton. So anybody in this general area so Hampshire Devon Conrwall may use this thread. I'll update the player list at a later date as I only have a limited amount of time on the internet atm.

This thread will be used to organise smashfests for brawl and/or melee and general discussion about smash in this area.

If you're new to smash and have only just found this thread make a post or contact me or Vanity Angel and I'll see to it that you can get involved with the other players.

Right, just to remind everyone what we were talking about before, heres the last few posts of the old thread:

Dacacia
Woo, Calum! Clearly your revision went really well... I'd say just subscribe to this thread - that way you get to read all the random banter that goes on.

And yeah, we should do something on Thursday or Friday. Or over the weekend, or all of the above... Except that I suck at poker :p

Inertia
Yes poker sounds good. My standard buy in? Aka £200 lol. Maybe not but poker is banter for any amount of money. Also I just beat Ben at barwl so I think we need to play more barwl to make him feel bad about himself like I do every time I play him with fo in melee.

Also up throw up air wrecks duncan generally.

I could do something later on this week. Maybe Thursday/Friday/Saturday. Any one of those is good. Dunno what you guys would prefer. I'm also gonna try making some animaniacs sigs tomo if I have time.

P.S. Ben 'I'm doing it. Look ma I'm really doing it!'

Dacacia
Shut up! Stop telling everyone my major weaknesses! As soon as I learn to DI on instinct you'll be sorry...

Lol my wii literally refuses to play Bawrl anymore - stupid dirty laser.

And I look forward to seeing the finished animaniac sigs - are you just making several for yourself, or are you making them for all of us? :p

Inertia
I can do them for everyone if you like will make several and see what they come out like. Though I'm not sure where I can get decent quality pictures of the power rangers ones, I'll have a look though. I can't promise high quality though XD. I convinced Ben that this is a good idea for a crew as well because of a) its awesomeness and b) lack of alternatives

When you can DI properly my whole game plan will be screwed lol.

Dacacia
I like it as a crew idea, though we need to find a token female to be Dot... Guys with long hair don't count :p

I might just get some random guy off the street to continually throw me until I DI it right. I desperately need to learn!

Pickled noob
how is friday afternoon/evening for everyone? I can contribute poker chips, beer and pizza, and my sub standard melee skill.. :p

RE Friday- I can do that np and poker sounds alright

RE animaniacs- we still havent heard calums opinion!!! I wouldn't make sigs yet either as we still have to pick our cartoon character :laugh:

lol **** you Aiko!!! If only I'd got up 10 minutes earlier :confused:

Friday afternoon sounds good Calum. I can contribute my amazing poker skill (lol arrogance) and money for stuff. And my walk away forward smash anti-Ben edgeguard melee skill.

Unfortunately I don't have chips and my cards were ****ted on recently by my housemates while playing spoons.....

Yeah that would be awesome.

I heard your barwl skillz are 3 times better in person :)

Edit : Yeah poker sounds good at GGT2 but mainly going for melee ofc. And I don't have chips cos the guys i play with have them so I've never needed a set and now I play at the casino. So the home game kinda dryed up in favour of the much more lucractive casino cash table.

Yeah trash Duncans house lol. No sounds good. I got working on the sigs and I've got a banner one that would be cool to put at the top of this thread which is below. The sigs are proving to be a bit of a pain as I'm having to make my own renders :dizzy:

Calum I love your avatar its awesome :)

Dammit, you missed out the apostrophe on Southampton's! If we're gonna do this, it may as well be grammatically correct :lick:

Ok I've edited it. Text now centred and apostrophe inserted. Maybe some feedback on how it looks would be more helpful :ohwell:

Plus a new one which is ok I guess. Been feeling very uninspired today lol. Must be all the guitar hero I'm playing.

Hmm well heres some ideas for you. First the name, instead of animaniacs it could be the warner brothers? Also are you gonna go with the power rangers spoof or just the ordinary characters cos they'd go better.

Calum- contribute man! What do you think about crew names? Banners and whatever :laugh:

About the banner- The union jack is a cool idea but you can't make out the characters. Who's got who anyway??? Who am I left with ? XD

Yeah, I agree with Bill on the not being able to see the characters problem.

I also want to throw the idea of an Invader Zim based crew out there, but since I'm guessing no-one will have heard of that (much less actually watched it) I guess it's out of the question...

Also, colours are a bit... bad... on that latest one lol

well, i dont actually know who or what the animanics are so im not sure what to expect. Couldnt we have these animanics merged with the uni dolphin or something?

oh thanks for saying you like my avatar pete, i didnt realise it was going to be so small. It says "a delicious snack for any AOE player" After coming on these forums i thought id dig out all the old signatures from my RTS days :) like this one:

It doesn't even have to be based on a cartoon though. How about 'the saints' or something like that? I've got an idea for a banner as well

Calum- this ain't RTS this is smash XD

Yeah, I like the idea of exhuming the dolphin - fight the power and all that. And whatever happened to BBill's idea of us being called the Saints? :confused:

Edit: BBill ninja'ed me making the same comment :p

I might have a go at making one tomorrow, but my creative skill with computers is a little limited... Also I'll have to find a pic of the dolphin now that the uni's tried to erase its memory. We'll see how it all goes.

I'm pretty sure a massive honey smoked ham in your banner would make it an instant success? After all, it is SoutHAMpton.

SoutHAMpTON. A ton of hams? That sounds prettys expensive imo.

I can make you a dolphin logo if you want, that wouldn't be too hard. Not sure if you saw the CGSoc ones but I'll just change the dolphin to something more relevent like?? What would be good? Zelda? :laugh:

Given that both the smash symbol and the dolphin have the same sort of two tone design, there really should be an easy way to combine the two... And then put a halo on the dolphin. Because dolphins are saintly.
