this might sound stupid but why dont u guys have a tourney that cost $1000 to enter n the winner of brawl n the winner of melee would be rich? and u could probably pay like the top 4-6 people

because who would seriously enter that unless you were sure you would win? so 2 or 3 people, all whom would not get that much than they started with. and noone has that much money to throw away

large pots are created by having small entry fees and lots of poeple. How do you get lots of poeple? You have an entry fees that the average player would pay for a good time playing smash. Without that tourneys couldn't happen. There would be something like pro money match series events only with less than 8 people

Yeah. Pretty much Ken and his crew's entire appearance in Genesis lies in my ability to beat them in Brawl.

...

God help us all.

It's cool.

Aslong as you can play Metaknight you're fine. You need some Chris Metaknight training.

Flight prices are dropping like hotcakes.

Qantas has return for under $1200 now (QANTAS!), with their cheapest flights to America ranging from $900 return for some dates.
V Australia (Virgin) were offering $900 return flights up until 4 days ago if you travelled before 15th of June.
I'd say anyone going should be able to get flights for $1000 or less. It's a golden time to go to America.

It's a golden time to go to the Golden State! Beats the Silver state, unless you like gambling... <3

How does the Aussie contingent feel about arriving in LAX at the same time? I can arrange pickups, temp housing in the Greater Los Angeles area, and give you opportunities to meet special people over a dinner.

First I need to know how many of you are ACTUALLY going, and secondly, a date we're deciding to leave on. I intend on arriving somewhere between July 1 and 3, before July 4.

Cao methinks you should look at my mk chart in the western Sydney thread on how to play mk.
OR if you are to lazy and want to be a pro mk in 20sec i will tell you my secret
NO ONE BUT CAO READ THIS!!!
ok first nado spam to rack up some damage get light weights to atleast 40% and the heavier ones to about 70% then keep d-smashing until you hit them off the stage and ****ING GIMP use the dair and b-up.

Yes, use the I LAG way of winning, it's pure knowledge from a guy who has no previous records of making 16 in a tourney.

Winning at life or being lucky. Take your pick :grin:

I suppose I graduated long ago. I'm a fulltimer now. So I get paid to take holidays.

As for someone like Sam, it's pure luck at the poker table

You just take Kevin's money.

Dw Cao Ken isn't very good at smash so it shouldn't be too much trouble for you to win.

So I'm like, pretty much confirmed for this if I want to go.

Here's my sob story.
Right now I pay my parents $75 p/w board. They'd recently dropped it from $150 p/w board because they wanted to help me get through Uni.

So then I drop this on them. That I wanna go to Genesis.

WELL, they're not happy about it, although they are happy about me wanting to see the world (I think?).
They're not happy because I've gone and basically said 'I wanna go spend tons of money after you guys decided to cut my board in half'.

SO, they're gonna put my board up back a bit. I don't know how much a bit is. Though, if it's anything higher than $25+ p/w I don't think it would be responsible of me to go :(

I mean, there's 8 months left in the year. That's like $800.
:(

I'll come though. Just means I'll be buying less food at work/uni, and preparing more at home from now on. rofl.
