Heyo! I JUST joined the Smashboards hoping there may be some SSB players in Austin and saw this thread. I've tried running through a few pages in this topic but am afraid I don't have the energy to run through all 100+ pages :-\

Anyone mind filling me in as to how the Austin tournaments are usually set up and run? Keep in mind that I've been playing Smash for a while, but am extremely inexperienced at any kind of competitive gaming. Thanks :-D

Welcome to Smashboards, Dimesdale!

We don't have any tournaments set up in Austin at the moment. We travel to Houston, Dallas, and San Antonio for tournaments. But we meet once a week for Smashfests.

Woot! Fawesome. Probably not ready for a tournament anyway :-) Please redirect me if I should be asking my n00b questions elsewhere :-) But how does one get in on that?!

Welcome Dimesdale. Hope you don't quit on us too soon. I know a lot of people become demotivated when a really good player wrecks their face. Not saying we're gonna do that, but if it happens, just keep practicing.

Charles is obviously mad because he's not eating Shipley's right now.

Man law states you must see the car before you call your seat.

Anyways, Michael might come as well. For those of you that don't remember him, that one Wolf player.
This is true.

And sweet; haven't seen Mike in forever!

Yea, I'm sure he forgot about SWF. Was talking to him on FB. I'll get back to you guys on how he's gonna get there if he wants to come.

Looks like I'll be ordering JJ tomorrow night. Chris, when can you swing by? I get off class at 2, and get back to my apartment by 2:30.

That's not surprising. :p
Good job, sir Chris.

What time are you planning on departing to pick up the other guys?
I have to kill time anyway because my "thing" ends at 1, but it would be a shame to arrive only to find that you aren't there.
My sincerest apologies if this sounds like a rude question, but I like to plan everything beforehand.

Does that mean you get free Disney movies, games, and other products? If you get an Epic Mickey poster, I'll buy it.

And yea Chris, I'll text you my address sometime later tonight.

I'm gonna go pick up Joel around 2:30 and then drive back to pick up Polt.

Sadly, my internship doesn't cover video games, so no free Epic Mickey for me.

We have two at my place. With yours we'll have a Wii for all 3 of our TVs.

I'm going to have my Wii (sans cords) in my car if you want to switch one without replay hacks for this one.
I seriously doubt we'll need three set-ups, though.

I'm also going to have a number of other valuable items in the car for my in-town business after leaving there, but I know from my S.L.U.T. experience that my car is difficult to penetrate without making a lot of noise. :3
