Ooooooh thats some TO competitionnnnnnnn

Florida hospitality is mad legit though

Never been to NYC so I can't say
well not all NYC is as legit as me when it comes to hospitality...I also lived for a year in FL so I learned teh ways of awesomeness from you guys.

BTW Me and Plank are cool with each other and we want everyone to know we are not competing.

GPX is sponsoring this and Apex
Plank is TOing this and Apex ( I consider him a co-host really )

I find it good that eveyrone is gonna come to both ( that should be the goal )

PR - hope to see you at this and APEX you are guarenteed that both events will be HIGH QUALITY!

this, apex AND the showdown? this is a year for huge tournies but three competing against each other esp. one right after the other (GAMME + showdown) sucks :(

i can't wait to watch this though...if i'm not at a tourney this weekend

hey we need to petition other TOs who care about melee to postpone their events...

GAMME is the place where we as a community can unite and show other gaming communities what we're made of and why we're really ****ing special (and by that i mean melee bc brawl is boring as **** and no one will be like holy **** we need to learn how to play this game)

i think that everyone can recognize this simple, important fact.

if my facts are true then this is the real tournament to attend, and not at all because of TO ability or player attendance at this point or any hype generated so far

this is the tournament to attend because we as a community are worth being sponsored

it's stupid that plank had to pay money to get space, to get TVs, etc etc -- for a game that's worth someone ELSE's money and resources to do it for us. GAMME is our opportunity to get on a regular schedule with a company who can align its interests with ours

this is my personal request to alex strife and whoever is running showdown to seriously consider pushing your tourney to a later (or earlier) date in the hopes that some day (possibly very soon), if this tournament does well, these same people (or other sponsors) will approach YOU and hope to have YOU organize a tournament that THEY will help promote, advertise, and provide resources for

plank's a good TO but **** these dudes should be talking to me too

I announced apex way before anyone else. Not only that but it is 2 MONTHS after this. How long do you want me to hold it off. I have the entire world looking at my event as well for both games.

showdown imo is not gonna be as big as you think


GPX is sponsoring apex as well so to me it benefits Apex as well as Gamme

i'm saying dude it's not a competition, it's not even about what's fair

i understand that what's yours is yours and apex is your baby and you care for it very deeply

but if there aren't going to be other gaming communities with influential members in their respective games then it's worth less to the community

it's about something larger than yourself alex strife

scar bottom line is that this has been tried so many times but the SRK community has done nothing but treat us like garbage. MLG was the ONLY company that has shown any bit of respect.

Think about it and do the research

evo Melee had a huge attendence

evo Brawl THEY decide to use items

drama ensues.

ya i'm going to both

apex is fine since it's after this but i still think that melee players should seriously consider allocating any moneys that they are going to spend to this tournament if there's a conflict in funds

just because -- regardless of what other communities think about us now -- if we have a kick *** presence here and some intense matches with the best players and a ton of EXTREMELY PASSIONATE fans (i.e. everyone in the melee community) i think we can start something up again

thanks to genesis and pound something is really going at this point, there is a ton of momentum in the community

not to knock apex, i'm sure it will be a great tournament, but for melee this is just my opinion

evo is not having smash at all.


Scar I respect your opinion but I think everyone should go to both.

Also I wont get into what I am offering at APEX since people who read my thread obviously know what , and who, I am bringing.

I'll just say next time scar please look at things before you post.
