i want to host a tounrament in the basement of my residence hall.

but the people there (including myself) are out of hand and the basement is our communial spot of social activities which means there is always alot of crazy things going on and alot of crazy drug usage, gay sex, drinking, sex, etc. etc.
thats how we socialize.
so im assuming not everyone wants to be around that while playing smash hahahaha.
really, college isnt that bad.
it's just my residence hall.
its pretty bad when im the most tame person in a whole building full of people.

Dare we try with this?

January 16th- Zero Gamer tournament
January 23rd- Arcade Stickx
January 30th- AU tourney

I'm willing to bet getting enough money to go to all of these back to back will be pretty tough for me, and the community but wow this would be rather amazing if we could handle this financially and have the time. It'd be the best smash month AL has ever had lol.

Oh right POUND
Someone had a very interesting discussion about that with me and how it would benefit the underdogs of the AL communities if we had one the same day.

x] it was just an idea though

I probably can't make it to Pound 4, but I am, without a doubt, going to Herb 3.


And wtf, Russ! I propose Smashfests all the time at reasonable times (which you don't come to) and today you go to Mike's at 10:00!?

I'm maaaaaaad :mad:

You guys are going to have to plan on making tourney plans more than 30 days in advance if you want a significant number of people to show up.

I believe there are at least 3 Huntsvillians going to INNsomnia this weekend: me, joot, and Will_.

I wonder if there is housing available in the Memphis area. :upsidedown:

If you need some, I can provide. I'm going straight home after the tournament.

Official Decision

After talking with my mom and showing her ALL of the contact information I got from the people willing to help she decided that I will NOT be going with you guys to memphis tomorrow. She will not be calling any of you or talking to you in person. I'm sorry I really wanted to go but this ended up being too much for her right now.

So with she promised my brother and I permits (lol it takes this to make her go get me a permit).
it ended up being more than I though, had to pay for my brothers because he had no money so in total I just spent $56 ._.

The other good news
Is that she has a totally different opinion about the smash community! Thanks everyone for that I would be willing to help out in anyway after I get some more money

Edit: More news

Goods: I can go to more of Jason's smashfests :D

Bads: Just not today

As an addendum to my previous post on details for the trip: bring blankets and pillows and any other sleep accessories you may require. There are some pieces of furniture for sleeping at Jack's place, but mostly it's hardwood floor, so plan accordingly.

I'm experiencing some... rather difficult circumstances with my parents so there is a high probability that I'll have to bail on INNsomnia as well.

But that doesn't mean I'm not allowed yet. I'll have the answer tomorrow, mslano.


Also, I'm still good for Smashing (at my venue, not my home )

bringing a book or books is by far the best way to make a trip go by faster

presuming it is a day trip.

at night im usually tired so I just sleep.

now, if you're the driver, you're just out of luck

you guys post alot. i have 40 posts shown per page and there's still like 3 new pages everytime i log on here. thats why i always respond to **** like two pages late.

speaking of which. im also pretty good with older folks. surprisingly older people are less quick to judge a person by how they look.

which happens to me a lot because sometimes i look like I crawled out of a trash can

also

i think sheik and donkey kong is the only characters that I like better in brawl than in melee.

oh and of course kirby.

i like to pretend that kirby isn't in melee. because i mean basically he's not.

slam you were supposed to put me on some montevallo hoes wtf

i would invite you to play some melee with us but no one wants to fight jiggs.

just kidding hit me up


guys in all honesty i think the main reason I don't do well in melee is because of my poor technical ability. i consistently press the buttons incorrectly throughout all of my matches causing my character to do dumb stuff that gets me killed. i believe that if this wasn't a problem i would actually be competitive at this game.

There is a significant amount of irony in pointing out that people post too quickly shortly before you triple post.
