house rulez

rule 0. PLEASE BRING SETUPS. i have 3 tv's, but no systems and no copies of melee. nick has a wii and a cube iirc. i will be moving my stuff out of my bay area apartment tomorrow so i will probably be able to bring my wii home.

nick should have tio as well? i could always DL my own copy of tio from aib as well. hopefully nick can bring the recording setup? + commentary? is that alright king of geckos?

1. respeck the house please
2. stay downstairs
3. i'll have disposable cups for water
4. be careful of the dog, he is little and very nervous
5. i know it'll be cramped but let's avoid any other rooms but the living room and the kitchen.

yep.

i'll stop by a store sometime on sunday and buy some drinks and snacks if you think it's a good idea

also i haven't played melee since nick kicked my *** a while ago, so we'll see what happens :3

 

[choknater]

drinks and snacks would be awesome!

haha it's all good. i have a feeling this tournament will be really casual since it's, well, a day after a SERIOUS norcal tournament, and it's modesto/merced, plus there will be a lot of new players.

 

[GKInfinity]

Yeah honestly I've got plenty of tvs so no one really needs to bring any. Cubes/wiis/melee copies would be really nice though. Technically I have 4 full setups I can bring, but the gamecubes I have don't always work.

I'll take care of recording, tio, and the program for the swiss format.

We need to figure out where we're gonna put the setups though. It'd also be nice if we didn't have to put the tvs on the ground. We'll make do with whatever we've got though

And spense, we'll train again before the tournament. :D

 

[choknater]

we'll do our best with the setups haha. swiss!!!! i'm excited. it'll be project styles' first swiss tournament.

 

[LumpyCPU...]

results/vids ASAP PLEASE!!!!!!!!

 

[choknater]

i wonder if there'll be a new wombo combo

soooo

i think we're gonna have

singles
teams
modesto vs merced crews

mvc3 side tourny?????

 

[GKInfinity]

LOL

Mvc3 friendlies sounds good, but a side tourney is completely out of the question (spenser knows why lmao)

 

[choknater]

su told me to have a side tourny

 

[GKInfinity]

lmao that *****

That should be a freaking violation of the bet

 

[choknater]

LOLOLOL

oh yeah i think he told me to keep quiet or something

idk

 

[kirbyraeg]

ahahaha oh wow su

actually, in all seriousness

I'll do tetris moneymatches (with tetris DS)

$1 per person, as many of you can compete at a time vs. me as you like since tetris DS has a teams function and single-card multiplayer. I'll put $1 in per person I'm playing against at once, and the MM is best of 9 rounds, no items. Everybody else is on a team against me, unless you'd like to do a 1v1/2v1/etc separately, but I'll take any size group of comers at once. You'd only need to bring a DS, since I have the copy of tetris DS needed for multiplayer.

 

[LumpyCPU...]

spence, i really wanna play you. we should get on tetris friends some time... if that site is still up and running. lol

 

[GKInfinity]

I saw spenser play pretty recently. He's actually a lot faster than he used to be, and that says a lot since he's always been really good

 

[LumpyCPU...]

i bet he's still much better than i am.

last time i played him, i was garbage and he was godly. lol

edit: but i was more newb back then.

 

[choknater]

tetris ATTACK mm's

 

[LumpyCPU...]

WHEN YOU'RE HOT, YOU'RE HOT!!

lol

 

[kirbyraeg]

I'm pretty hot

But not at tetris attack

 

[LumpyCPU...]

"YOU'RE WASTING MY TIME!"

 

[joeplicate]

dang i wish this wasn't in MODESTO


it sounds like you guys have hella fun and i would love to play chok and bizzzz for dayz

i'll try to make it out to one of these if you have another one

 

[GKInfinity]

Not sure if we're going to have another one honestly since school's starting for everyone right around now. Merced will probably have a tournament at some point, but that's an even farther drive lol

lol only in the 209 will there be only 2 out of 8 people using top tier characters.
gotta love it.

reminds me of when i first played smash in modesto.

sage-link
miztik-roy
xilo-falcon/luigi
waffles-doc
park-yoshi
chok-ic's
kim-peach
edy-link
connor-g&w

that was before i met the zelda and kirby players. lol

 

[choknater]

this is why i don't lose to any other characters besides fox, falco, falcon, and bizzarro flame

 

[LumpyCPU...]

it's funny because fox is everyone else's strongest match up, but modesto has never had anyone who really focuses on fox for more than a month.

 

[choknater]

haha i just have trouble dealing with speed and pressure

kinda shows why i play kinda gay characters

 

[LumpyCPU...]

you know, i bet you'd gain a lot from playing my spacies for like 4 hours straight.
i used to be SO SLOW i can't even comprehend it.

i think that is my most recent footage. lol i bet my current falco would **** my 1yearago falco!

i wanna play you kenny

in everything

:[

 

[choknater]

what about me

m3*

 

[KILLA.FOR.CASH.]

andre i cant wait to play you again

my fox got on point by playing lots of random socalians

i want revenge

 

[Bizzarro Flame]

bring it JR!!!

 

[choknater]

bizz and i have both improved

playing young link all the time has seriously improved my tech skill and the way i think with my other characters haha

though the 209 players have scattered, i think we have all reached a new prime....

(wouldn't be surprised if kenny comes back from texas and blows us ALL up)

 

[LumpyCPU...]

i will blow you all

Spoiler

away

 

[choknater]

just blow us all

just blow

 

[LumpyCPU...]

i'll blow even though i still suck.

i'm probably not improving too much since i have only played a human like 5 times in the last year.

 

[choknater]

it's okay

watching pro videos can still kinda help you keep up

 

[LumpyCPU...]

well i don't watch them other than g2 vids and modesto tournament vids. lol
i think i was almost at a point where i would really gain from watching pros play.


in other news, i'm guessing i didn't get that job that i was specifically told i got. :/
no ****ing call back, and when i went back there, the same lady said they haven't filled up the training class yet. if they don't call me by friday, i'll burn this town to the ground and become the drifter i was meant to be.

 

[choknater]

isn't ghost rider from texas?

or something like that

u can become ghost rider
