GDX & Next Level Lan Present: K.U.B. - 5 Dollar Footdives

[Wumbo105]

Yoo guise are so curazy.
Yea my spring break just started this Friday, goes until the 9th.

And yes, I played Brawl from release to about the middle/end of '09, and then quit (can't remember why). Started back up in late '11 since my roommate played, although he was a nublet.

I appreciate the effort Vinyl, and I'll definitely play witchu anytime. Imma get there MAD early so i can play ALL the people! Like Kuro said i am just in desperate need of practice with good players.

 

[-DR3W-]

Just realized Florida has like 4 Kirby. What the ****.

 

[Wumbo105]

4? I thot I was the only one till I saw Vinyl lol.

Who are the other 2?

 

[Vinylic.]

I'd like to know as well. So I can top both of them.

 

[B_AWAL]

DC & MrFTW ???

 

[[FBC] Papa Mink]

DC is one,

And there's one from poinciana right?

Yeah there is, KDB

 

[Wumbo105]

Cool beans.

 

[-DR3W-]

KDB, Wumbo, Vinyl, DC. Two of which have yet to be slain.

 

[Vinylic.]

Over my pink body.

 

[#HBC | Scary]

There's DC, MrFTW, KDB, Wumbo, Vinyl, and Riz overe here in Tampa.

There's a few Kirbys lol.

 

[Kuro~]

Florida has always been the most diverse state for characters lol.

 

[Wumbo105]

I SHANT EVER BE SLAIN.

Although I would say our great variation is partly thanks to the MK ban, it's still pretty nice.

 

[Kuro~]

Uhhh we had didn't have that many mk anyways lol. The ban only brought a few more ppl out. And not even of characters we didn't already have in the scene.

 

[VSC.D-Torr]

UNBAN MK!!!

 

[P.I.E.]

HOpefully shaky attends this one as well

 

[Wumbo105]

Aside from the few new people, the former MK "mains" also had to make a switch themselves, so add them to the mix too.
I get what you're sayin tho, it's not like our state was completely overrun by MKs.

Not counting the mains who didn't transition (e.g. Master Raven), you have Seibrik (/), Red Halberd (who already played several characters), Xaltis (who used for a lot of match-ups), and me, only Seibrik and I were the players who could be said to rely on , and even then I've never been notable.

 

[Wumbo105]

Yea yea yea I got the pictureeeeee.

Unbanning MK wouldn't bother me any personally...but that's neither here nor there.

 

[[FBC] Papa Mink]

**** MK.

 

[-DR3W-]

"**** MK"
"**** Falco"
"**** ICs"

Grow a pair

 

[Kuro~]

**** sonic
**** olimar

Those are the true evils.

 

[Vinylic.]

Not sonic, but definitely peach.

 

[[FBC] Papa Mink]

I'll agree with Kuro on this.


Good Olimar's are gay as ****.


And good sonics are worse.


WHY CANT I HIT HIM.

 

[Wumbo105]

All my hatred.

Diddy. ICs. Olimar.

DIEEEEEE.

 

[-DR3W-]

Ryan...we shall discuss this later. I gotchu.

 

[GDX]

All my hatred.

Diddy. ICs. Olimar.

DIEEEEEE.

thats unforunate, since me nick and jeff play all of those chars lol

but theres a good chance I wont enter singles here so one less thing to worry about

 

[Exdeath]

I'd be lying if I said that all of this Olimar hatred doesn't make me want to enter singles.

D-Torr has been saying this for quite a while, but I think that we should start running swiss at NLL/relatively competitive tournaments.

 

[pesticide]

I'm all for using the swiss system in a future tournament. I've always liked how it worked in chess tournaments

 

[Эикельманн [РУС]]

Swiss is the best for improving the community as a whole. Not implementing it would be selfish.

 

[Kuro~]

Could someone explain it to me?

 

[Эикельманн [РУС]]

A Swiss tournament goes for a predetermined number of rounds, with all of the players taking part in each round. In each round two players compete head-to-head. All players participate in the entire tournament – none are eliminated until a final, double or single elimination bracket is constructed based on an also pre-determined number of contestants from the final pairing that will generally make up a top 8 or top 16 bracket, depending on attendance.

The first round is either drawn at random or seeded according to some prior order, such as rating or last year's performance. Players who win receive a point, those who draw receive half a point and players that lose receive no points. Win, lose, or draw, all players proceed to the next round where winners are pitted against winners, losers are pitted against losers, and so on. In subsequent rounds, players face opponents with the same (or almost the same) score. No player is paired up against the same opponent twice, however. In chess it is also attempted to ensure that each player plays an equal number of games with white and black, alternate colors in each round being the most preferable, and a concerted effort is made not to assign the same color three times in a row.

The basic rule is that players with the same score are ranked according to rating. Then the top half is paired with the bottom half. For instance, if there are eight players in a score group, number 1 is paired with number 5, number 2 is paired with number 6 and so on. Modifications are then made to balance colors and prevent players from meeting each other twice.

Major Announcement!

For the first ever 5 Dollar Footdives, it is going down! We will cross the line, with the first ever Orlando X Tampa event.

Now, we suggest you pre-register on this document: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dFEyZ1lYcVVzOFg0NElvV05qV0lLelE6MQ

If you do not pre register for your events, you will pay $10 door fee and $10 entry per game. Otherwise, it will remain at $5 door fee and $5 entry per game. If you pre register for a game now, and then want to add/remove one at the door, it will be $5, since you at least pre registered that you are coming.

Steve of Sore Thumbs in Tampa will now run all of the FGC fighting games at this event. And we're not just talking the originally planned Marvel and Street Fighter X Tekken. He will also be running your other favorites: ( at least 8 people must enter, otherwise it is cancelled)
Arcade Edition v2012
King of Fighters XIII
Soul Calibur 5
Mortal Kombat
BlazBlue

Tournaments will start every hour, and signups will stop a half hour before each event. The times for 12, 2, 4, and 6 for the previously announced games will stand. The other events (starting at 1,3,5,7) will be placed in as well. The larger games will be earlier (such as AE) while smaller games will run later, if at all (again, at least 8 entrants). Streaming will still start at 8pm for finals

Especially LVL 9 Luigis.

Lvl 9 weegees in every smash game is pro, i swear.

 

[Vinylic.]

Question, is it necessary to bring in setups when pre-registering?

Like, If I don't bring it, would it be 10 dollars for door fees and entries?

 

[GDX]

you dont have bring a setup. you just have to pre-reg

setups just ensure the tourney finishes and that you can play friendlies faster...just like any other tourney

 

[Vinylic.]

Alright, now I need a teammate and a team name.

The team name shall be.....

The Wow Wow Wubbzies

Who joinin' me?

 

[Wizzrobe]

Well, I pre-registered.

So, now I save 10 dollars

 

[GDX]
