hmm..well I could always take the train to Bridgeport and back if you can give me a ride to the tourney Swift. I'd like to know how Mike would get to the tourney though. I gotta contact Mike and see what his situation I guess
if you're talking about me, i don't have a way to get anywhere. this includes the train, anybody's house in fairfield/bridgeport, etc. :\

Hey guys, my friend and I have been playing melee for a while now and this will be our first ever tournament, and it sounds great! I main Jigglypuff (Wall of Pain ftw). We don't know a whole lot about tournaments, so how will seeds be decided, and will we be in the amateur bracket? Thanks

Seeding is done by the pool system, meaning you're given a "pool" of players and you play all the other players within the pool. If you are in the top half of the pool's win-loss ratio, you go onto pro bracket, while if you are in the bottom half, you go onto amateur. Bracket placement is done by the TO and volunteer top players, mostly to assure that players don't need to play with people they came with or people they've played frequently in tournament.

It'll be mixed competition. Beginner through Average is what you can expect, with some slightly-above-average players.

Seeding is done by pools. Say for example top3 from each pool goes into the Pro Bracket. If you aren't in the top3 you automatically go into the amateur bracket.

yea this will be my first melee tourny lol im gonna have to leave at like 4 since i have work but i wanted to do doubles.


i dont have any melee videos i can show but im really good in smash doubles overall. beat the best team in the country in brawl a month or 2 ago and i always place in the money every event in doubles. if anyone wants to do friendlies or something pre tourny to test out chemistry it would be cool, i want to attend but im not going if i dont get a partner lol.

I'm on the fence about going to this now... mostly because I don't have definitive way here + comic con. Is there anyone from NY traveling to this? Or is there a way via public trans?
