Get Melee into Evo 2013! (FOR REALS... maybe)

[OneAndOnly KIP]

Who ****ing cares.

 

[DrinkingFood]

1218 for melee and 1247 for Tekken Tag Tournament 2. Only 29 votes behind them. We'll pass them up and take fourth in no time.

7 away from catching up to TTT2.

 

[ShroudedOne]

Oh sweet. Voted. Hopefully this will get us taken seriously again.

EDIT: Damn, you tell 'em, OTG.

The world needs more people like you

Voted on melee

 

[Revven]

TTT2 has been overtaken! Melee at 1,261 as of this writing with TTT2 at 1,259.

 

[Seartu]

As of now, passed Tekken, top two seems realistic if we keep these numbers.

 

[Habefiet]

Yeah, we definitely just passed Tekken, which I consider a shoo-in anyway, so... good sign. XD

 

[King Funk]

Whoever the **** said that Melee wasn't the greatest game ever, they're SADLY MISTAKEN!

I dont think we'll pass marvel and ssf4 but its cool to be under the top main guaranteed evo games

 

[Warhawk]

Reactivated my facebook just to vote. I think we just jumped above Tekken Tag Team too which is pretty cool

Very much this.

[metroid1117]

I voted! Everyone should post this as their Facebook status, get your friends (competitive and casual) in on this too!

 

[Habefiet]

Don't get all like "Oh, we passed Tekken, but there's no way we'll pass things that are less than 300 votes ahead of us." Don't stop pushing now. We've been growing at a faster rate than them and there's no reason to believe we can't make it happen.

Long live melee! I would honestly try to make it to this if Evo really decides to put Melee up as a game.

 

[ZeldaFreak0309]

OK GUYS

If you really want A TON of people to see this, not just people who go on Melee discussion and are super active in the community but ANYONE who thinks competitive Melee is cool, we should do the following:

Take this:

IF YOU WANT TO SEE MORE OF THIS VOTE FOR MELEE TO BE IN EVO 2013: goo.gl/FL2Eo


and put it in the video descriptions for:

WOMBO COMBO: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pD_imYhNoQ4

M2K VS SHIZ 4: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qna80MbcAAc


IF YOU KNOW WHO WOULD BE ABLE TO DO THIS PLEASE CONTACT THEM.

 

[R2_GP]

here in Honduras we have melee Fb group and i just posted the poll, 54 members hope they all vote!

 

[Seartu]

Less than 200 votes out of third.

 

[fatman667]

Damn we're growing fast, we're like 4th now. This may actually happen keep this up.

 

[Gastogh]

Bump and +1 vote for MAYLAY

 

[Warhawk]

I can't believe how much more quickly out numbers are growing compared to Street Fighter 4 right above us and that we're now 75 points above Tekken. Pretty incredible, like we've nearly doubled the goal of this thread in the first few pages for 700 votes.

 

[MonkUnit]

At EVO, wouldn't every game use flatscreen TVs? If Melee is at EVO, everyone would have to play with lag. =(

 

[TheCrimsonBlur]

Between aisight updates:

KoF +26
MvC +33
SF +30
Melee +119
Tekken +22

sccraaaaaaaaappppppeeeee

KEEP IT UP FELLAS

 

[Revven]

I really just hope this poll actually has an impact on Evo. It'd seem silly if they did this poll and it changed nothing in the line-up.

 

[ShroudedOne]

At EVO, wouldn't every game use flatscreen TVs? If Melee is at EVO, everyone would have to play with lag. =(

This is a good question. Would they accomodate us? Or would we have to do it like we always do, and bring our own?

And would we be able to bring our own?

 

[ZeldaFreak0309]

I really just hope this poll actually has an impact on Evo. It'd seem silly if they did this poll and it changed nothing in the line-up.

Thats why its critical that we're not just #3 or 4, but that we're far and away #1. Its much harder to ignore #1 than it is to ignore #3

 

[Ripple]

Also take into consideration that they wouldn't be allowed to stream any of it I think. Think about MLG brawl.

I hope I wrong though

 

[victra♥]

Whoever the **** said that Melee wasn't the greatest game ever, they're SADLY MISTAKEN!

hahaha yessss

awesome reference.

 

[Habefiet]

I presume that if Melee did make the lineup players would not be FORCED to play on laggy TV's. Whether or not they'd provide workable ones is questionable, but the way I see it they'd WANT to accommodate it because it'd be cheaper than getting flatscreens.

Or we can just bring our own. Let's face it, if Melee makes it to Evo I'm pretty sure the community is going to do its very hardest to make it work.

EDIT: Was MLG not able to stream Brawl? I feel like I vaguely remember SOME of this... but hey, maybe they never said anything about Melee. XD

 

[Vkrm]

These numbers may or may not represent the actual attendance.
Also I'd be able to bring like a dozen CRT's
Brawls < blazblue? For real? Wow

 

[Captain Smuckers]

Voted myself and hopefully got a bunch of others to as well

 

[TheCrimsonBlur]

Guys our community is multiple times bigger than KoF

Like, its not even comparable

If they got 1700+ we can too.

We can win this. Keep it up.

 

[Max?]

I really just hope this poll actually has an impact on Evo. It'd seem silly if they did this poll and it changed nothing in the line-up.

The poll states: "The top games in this poll aren't guaranteed to make the lineup, but a strong showing certainly wouldn't hurt!.... Games which have a broad audience of competitors around the world will always get our attention!"

There is a chance that we may gain nothing from this, but even still, we are making a HUGE statement to the rest of the FGC. We've survived for a long time without EVO and we will continue to do so. This our time to show the world that this is the best game ever made, and we've all risen to the occasion.

This is a good question. Would they accomodate us? Or would we have to do it like we always do, and bring our own?

Don't worry about that. If we get in, it will all get figured out later. For now, promote, promote, promote. That is all you can do.

 

[Gea]

Damn OTG, you on point.

Worst case scenario tens of thousands of competitive gamers who visit the EVO facebook page and vote on the poll see that Melee is still going strong.

Best case scenario we get a spot in EVO

win-win

 

[Vkrm]

I wonder if they listed melee as a joke. Like they knew every other game would poop on in votes.
I'll bet they didn't expect this to happen.
