[KassandraNova]

So is this one mk legal? And can you just ban double mk in teams?

What's the word?

 

[Mister Eric]

Don't ban DBL MK, BOOOOOOOOOOOO!

 

[Ralph Cecil]

Yeah if you ban double MK the Japanese won't come. Q_Q

 

[KassandraNova]

Don't ban DBL MK, BOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Okay fine.

Lol xD

Melee players! Feel free to tell me what should be changed regarding the melee rules/stage list. I do absolutely no dabbling in melee's scene, so I don't know what's considered standard. Anyone who's hands reach a bit deeper into the matter would be a great help.

Speaking of which, really glad to see melee players making it out to this. Even though I don't particularly play the game, I plan to continue entering the events to support the scene. Melee tournaments will be a regular deal at these events, so I hope to see you all making it out to them in the future!

Last question is to both melee and brawl players! Increased entry fee? Opinions?

I would be willing to pay an increased entry fee to support tournament events, but that may be an unpopular opinion.

Your current ruleset for Melee is fine, except you should update the stagelistings. If you would rather not take just my opinion on the issue, refer to this thread, with the recommended ruleset.

 

[BeanBurrito]

Hmmm I'm in Dayton and I'm thinking about coming to this

 

[DtJ Hilt]

@Ethreal, thank you very much. I'll update things to match what's MBR official when able (I don't have power over this thread).

Either MK will be banned at the event or he'll be legal. I really do not like banning him partially (only doubles/double mk team). General consensus so far has been to ban him overall. Let me know if you are of a different mindset. Those that are regulars/are coming to the next event will hold more weight.

We're going to be using a new format for counterpicks in Brawl at this next event. It'll be a test for the concept, I'll post more info on how it works soon.

 

[EthereaL]

If you're serious about improving your smash scene, don't ban him. You'll lose out on players who use him, and you'll never learn to cope as well as those who consistently play against him.

I'm pro-ban, but only if it's a community-wide decision.

I usually play Melee, but, if I come to this, I may also play Brawl.

 

[Kel]

I mained MK for 3 years. I want him banned. I would actually consider NOT going if he were legal (opposite of what you are saying). He was legal for these 3 years and the smash scene around here never "improved."

I'm not going to debate the ban, it's a circular argument on both sides. I believe that it's harmful to a scene to ban him if the major tournaments / events around the country are not.

 

[Ralph Cecil]

Hasn't there started to be big MK banned tournaments as well? :I Also idc if he's banned or not, but at least ban double mk.

 

[KassandraNova]

If I have to play peach, then I want flat plus plat stages only. Rabble! Rabble! Rabble! Lol I'm kidding. But seriously, I hate RC more than brinstar. Peach just loses on that stage. Just like auto loses. She has no second jump and she can't keep up with the stage. Lol

Find me a peach who rocks on RC and I'll shut up... Forever...

[kellyk1035]

I never play brawl so I wouldn't know but why would mk be banned I always here that? ??

 

[Ayce God]

why not just take rainbow cruise and brinstar off. there both ridiculous stages that's not even fun to play on.

also I'm antiban for mk but if the community wants him banned y'all should bend to there whim.

 

[SoulPech]

for MK Legal tournies, RC and Brinstar are turned off.

For most MK Banned tournies, RC and Brinstar are turned on.

 

[Ralph Cecil]

I have fun on Brinstar. :\

 

[Kel]

Brinstar is a good stage. Stop making excuses not to ban MK. It's time for him to go.

 

[KassandraNova]

Turn off mk, get rid of cruise. B)

Keep brinstar, I love peach on brinstar.

 

[DtJ Hilt]

At the stage that the Louisville community is at, at the moment, worrying about using these events to build skill for regionals/nationals shouldn't be our main priority. While it may be important, it's the step we would want to take after the one we're currently at, which is, building up an actual community. With how harshly the Louisville Brawl scene died, piecing it back together should be our main goal. If we go at this backwards, we'll only kill it again. Right now what I'm concerned with is attendance and the community.

 

[DtJ Composer]

Can you ban smashville as a starter?

 

[Mister Eric]

Do you actually plan to help rebuild the Louisville scene, Hilt?

 

[KassandraNova]

I found two new smashers at my work who I'm convincing to go to this. ^___^ hehe

 

[Overswarm]

I found 18 in northern Kentucky. :B


But I don't think I'm gonna try anything with 'em.

 

[Kel]

At least introduce them to Chi and Tako. Chi has those ranbat thingys that are meant to grow the cincy area.

 

[Ayce God]

any idea what the attendance may be like? I kinda wanna go to this.

 

[DtJ Hilt]

Not to what it was, no. But there are newcomers that have genuine interest in the game and I'd rather not leave them hanging. One in particular has been sticking around and shown progression. And that's just on Brawl's end. There are quite a few melee players around here that didn't have the chance to go to tournaments, so I'd at least like to see these events happen to give them an opportunity.

Plus it gives me an excuse to hang out with everyone

Haha, was just curious as to what kind of commitment we're talking about xD

Change this to FD and I agree.

 

[SoulPech]

You ALWAYS ban Smashville first

 

[clowsui]

At least introduce them to Chi and Tako. Chi has those ranbat thingys that are meant to grow the cincy area.

failed experiment

will try designing a better points system + schedule for next season

 

[Luigigoshard91]

My bro and i have got a couple melee players coming with us

 

[DtJ Composer]

Stop being so hard on yourself Chi, I'm gonna start assuming that's what you're going to school for.

Also Smashville centralizes the stage strike metagame. It is broken and it is banworthy.

 

[ShadowPhoenix951]

Yo, keep MK legal for Nov. 3rd. >.>
