we don't actually have a brawl setup, although we have 3 melee setups, so we can give a tv for brawl if necessary

Yo Great Bay is the ****. Young Link is banned there, however, except in the special event of a young link ditto.

EDIT: Nice job on Present;s by the way Pat.

Banning a character is stupid... And what's so special about Young Link on Great Bay anyway? :confused:

I'll be surprised if this has more than 20 people honestly. Sorry, but brawl is too dominant in this region, especially with 3 brawl tourneys happening in VA, MD, and NJ respectively.

Not only did I hear about it, I watched the finals while I was at planks house for his tourney. But I'm just saying that there are 2 decently big tourneys in MD/VA the same day. I really do hope you get a big turnout though.

I'll drop by YRW and reserve the study lounge for the brawl players today. Like speed said, we'll need help with all the brawl stuff (Toasty!? :D) since we know next to nothing about it but its always nice to grab more of the smash community.

Please use the information after the ******** line and put it in the first post for the Brawl Ruleset.

ALSO Please put Brawl [you can say it's by me if you don't want it associated with CNU XD] in the thread title. Please. =D It would help motivate people to accept the $5 venue fee for food and such if you add in that I'm trying to make it a going away party for Whodat so we'll probably use the money to order pizzas too [I'll handle that, and ALL of the drinks/snacks too if no one feels like doing it, I don't mind :)]

The red A doesn't mean anything that's just where google maps put CNU when you type it in. The blue area is where you park. The building that's circled in red is where the tourney is being held. The building is called York River West.

c3gill - hard to say. we've got some friends from NoVa who are trying to come through and most likely and they're a group of 5 or 6 then we've got 10-15 people around here who almost always show for Brawl.

Right now I'm gonna guess a list here:

(for Brawl)

Between definite and most likely
toasty
Kadaj
Famous
D0N
MaSHi
BlackG
ESOJ
Candy
Kornnnnn~
Boss
Hey It's YO
Chaosknight
Whodat

Will probably be there or just plain maybe:
DragonCharlz [cmon man, you can't p***y out on this one! it's Whodat's going away party :(]
TheHangedMan[ditto]
Sen[...come through, son!]
JWolf [play singles this time too? <3]
ttocs
SCHOOLIEDEE?!?!?! no Johns son!!!
KILN
Gonzo

I know some of these people probably won't be there or necessarily enter in the tourney, but I'll do my best to make sure they do ^_^
