You don't really seem to know anything about the brawl scene. Most brawl players are in college. I don't see anyone telling the kishes to run brawl, I only see melee players telling them to NOT run brawl. No one is telling melee players to like brawl. Pretty much all of your complaints are things you made up in your head that haven't even been mentioned here.Seriously, all you young brawl kiddies are ignorant as ****. You guys are calling us melee players "close-minded". I seriously don't think you guys know what that means. The ignorant red-necks in my town who won't vote for Obama purely because he is black and know nothing of his policies or stances on anything is being "close minded". People like Tink HAVE played brawl before. Hell, even TRAIL I'm sure has played it at some point, and tried to give it a chance (maybe)(hopefully).Most of the melee scene did at some point or another. I myself am a melee guy, but I ran one of the bigger tourneys for strictly brawl when it first came out. About 100 people in bum-**** wisconsin of all places. Hell, I traveled to play one of the Kish's when he lived in Marshfield with another old school melee player in EoF. You think that we haven't given it a chance, when in fact we were far more excited for the game to come out then you were.
The fact of the matter is that most of these guys who hold this tournament close to their hearts have been playing this game since most of the brawl players were in grade/middle school. More then a third of their lives, probably closer to half. This series has been the ONLY tournament series that hasn't EVER had both Brawl and Melee. And you guys are thinking it is completely unreasonable for them to not want their favorite tournament series to not have it. Not only is this the internet, where you can voice your opinion on the matter and not have it really matter because ultimately it is up to the Ship, who have my support in whatever decision they make. But to criticize someone like WIFE, who IMO is part of the reason competitive smash is still around in general (not to mention he is such a nice dude. Seriously, have a conversation with him once. He is ****ing awesome.), because he voiced his opinion about it is quite sad, and disrespectful to your elders.
Also, I don't think brawl should legally be there because half the brawl kiddies are under 18, and if SNEX shows up I'm sure there wouldn't be too many parents happy with their kids running around with a "registered sex offender" lulz.
Regardless, FC is gonna kick ***, and I cannot wait to play everyone I never had the pleasure of playing before.
This!!! Regardless of Melee/Brawl it's going to be awesome to see old faces. Looking forward to playing dodgeball again with everyone .Brawl and Melee together is standard. We all know how it goes at tournies. We just split it down the middle. It' not a big deal. The PEOPLE this tourny is bringing together is going to make all the difference and that's what I'm excited for.
It's heavily implied.I don't see anyone telling the kishes to run brawl, I only see melee players telling them to NOT run brawl. No one is telling melee players to like brawl.
Those complaints have been made elsewhere.Pretty much all of your complaints are things you made up in your head that haven't even been mentioned here.
So brawl players don't like hard core melee players' attitudes.I mean, I enjoy brawl and think it's a good game. I've probably been playing competitive melee longer than 90% of the people that will end up going to FC. I probably won't even enter brawl if it's at FC, because I would be going there for melee. It's people's attitudes about the entire situation that is upsetting people, not if the kishes are going to run brawl. There is a huge sense of entitlement.
WatTournaments didn't 'run long' and people didn't get kicked out of the building because we went over our paid for venue time. People didn't 'split the pot' and forego Grand Finals because they were tired and wanted to go home or were BFFs--No we had Regional Pride
Never at nationals.Wat
Did you play Melee? O_o
That stuff happened all the time. Pot splitting was super common, especially.
yoyoyo, dont let random people in this reflect the views of the kishes or the tournament FC. And as stated many times before, once people will get there, no one will care who is entering what. its not like "oh you play brawl? I'm gonna beat the **** outta you!." If that happens i will laugh for a bit, then lay the smack down for fighting over a video game and being stupid.All this brawl hate is making me not want to go honestly. A lot of the melee community come off as stuck-up elitists and I really don't understand it. The brawl community improved the melee scene in a lot of ways, and several big brawl TO's have hosted large melee tournaments. The immaturity being displayed is a huge turn-off to interacting with a lot of people in the melee community in person.
I understand not liking a game but having a vendetta against a video game is just absurd.
Realllly ****ing hoping Jesse is going to go, but have a strong hunch he wont. You down? Guarantee the leaps you saw me make from nov GC-manifest will be even greater leading up to this ****. I wont let you down. If you find someone actually "good" though, I understand that.I might come... if my brother (blunted_object10) isn't going, i'll need a teammate.
EDIT: I main fox and falcon.
Took me an hr to read this whole thread on my phone and this is the one quote that stuck out to me.You play Ice Climbers, you have no commenting room!
I'm not 100% sure. I just know whenever I saw him at a tournament, he would always have on the "I'm a registered sex offender" t-shirt on and just awkwardly next to people who were getting their pictures taken. Was hilarious.Wait, Snex is a registered sex offender?
please tell me this was done ironicallylots of fighting game tournaments feature ****ty games too, the Marvel players just ignore them. Take notes Melee community ^_^
The ONE thing you choose to cherry pick is a joke about the ICs and how it's widely believed they're cheap as **** (despite being difficult)?Took me an hr to read this whole thread on my phone and this is the one quote that stuck out to me.
Are you implying that those who play Ice climbers choose to do so because they don't need any tech skill and are the equivalent to the reasons why he dislikes brawl?
That is probably the most depressing thing I've heard on here
That just sounds like he likes to wear t-shirts.I'm not 100% sure. I just know whenever I saw him at a tournament, he would always have on the "I'm a registered sex offender" t-shirt on and just awkwardly next to people who were getting their pictures taken. Was hilarious.
No need for that!someone find mookieRah's phone number and get him to design the t-shirts.
Speaking of T-Shirts, who is designing this FC's shirts? I need a complete collection :D
Haha...the one and only original.
someone find mookieRah's phone number and get him to design the t-shirts.
No need for that!
