AADL-GT Round 2 Results

by eli

The 2005 season thunders on, and round 2 fulfilled expectations, with intense competition, increased controversy, and a solid 100+ turnout. Registration enhancements helped us get everyone checked in faster, and putting food and a TV outside the room was a big hit, decreasing the congestion and making more room for everyone.

The Mario Kart single-player event kicked off with 83 competitors, and a new split-screen approach, with two races going on at once. Everyone got 3 qualifying races, which unfortunately still took forever, and after a tiebreaker, the top 32 advanced to the quarterfinals. The semifinals got us down to a final 8 person race, with [gtplayer:168] taking First place, [gtplayer:141] taking second, veteran [gtplayer:345] taking third, and Black Shark Clan's [gtplayer:153] taking 4th, all getting a trip to the Surprize round, and to the grand championships in december. Read on for more!

Already way behind schedule, we charged on to the Mario Kart Team Event, with 38 teams competing, each team getting two races and 16 teams advancing to the semis. The finals of this event read like an induction list to the AADL-GT hall of fame (what an idea!), with TP2 and his brother winning the event, Trouble Monkeys taking second, the Inoculated Nuns (of the Vaccinated Monks clan of course) coming in third, and The other side of darkness (jlgelinas and ampshock) taking 4th.

There was plenty of pizza this time, and as we began the 105-player Super Smash Brothers Single-player melee, the infamous Noise Machine had thoroughly worn out their welcome, and were searching for lost or stolen drumsticks. With 2 battles per player, the competition was brutal as players attempted to get into the top 32 places to move on to the quarterfinals. Only winners advanced, and the four finalists were Pickwick the Second, DDR regular Piratey Critter, Skillz dat Killz' Monkeyman, and the Foreign Exchange's Dragoon Black. The mighty Pickwick emerged victorious from this intense battle, proving beyond the shadow of a doubt that he is not all talk.

The Team Melee tournament, which didn't even start until 4:45, with 47 teams competing in a single-elimination, 2-stock battle. 4 teams advanced to the finals, winning a trip to the Surprize round and the Grand Championships: Melee Masters, Trouble Monkeys 2, The Blitzers, and Nitemare.

Finally, thinking our broadcast had long since ended (although later discovering that CTN had carried it to the end), the mystery game was revealed: Super Monkey Ball 2, with quals in Monkey Target, and the final Prize round in Monkey fight. Both games were an absolute blast, with the four highest targeteers advancing to a Monkey Fight for the ages between Vaccinate Monks Duck and BubblingBeebles, Piratey Critter, and Trouble Monkey Clan's infamous Joe S. Duck put on an impressive display, winning the $70 prize in 3 straight matches, with BubblingBeebles taking second for $50, and Joe S narrowly edging out Piratey Critter for the $30 3rd prize.

Clan play was fast and furious as well, with the Trouble Monkey Clan storming to the top of the leaderboard, but the Vaccinated Monks notched up over 6000 points to claim the Round 2 Clan Victory, and winning a trip to the Clan Cup in December.

Check out the leaderboard for full stats, including new features, like race-by-race stats and a wins table for each player, accessible to all. We've also got a new method to insert your logo, which actually works. Just add gtlogo:CODE in square brackets to your signature, and replace CODE with the code for your clan, which follows below.

Next up is our 13+ SSB-only tournament, Friday, October 21st, at 6:00 PM, and then Round 3 on Saturday, October 22nd, from Noon to 5:00 PM.

Here are the clan codes for clans that have logos so far, they're pretty much what you'd expect:

Trouble Monkeys: TMC
Vaccinated Monks: VMC
Turtle Clan: TC
T-Unit: TC2
Black Shark Clan: BSC

Good job Eli on making the leaderborad so you can look at every single round (WOW).
Good job Jigelinas in beating me and in Mario kart (Second In single player and fourth in team)
Also improvement ideas first off finish off these toutaments the way they are and then have two seperate seasons(One for Mariokart one for Melee) Probally have melee be August thru December then have Janurary be the Season kickoff for mariokart and end that in June.
Also I don't think we need to let the top 32 in for Mariokart we can allow just 16 or even 8 and that would make it quicker.
Also you could speed up melee immensley by doing 2 minute time and everybody can get 3or4 matches because this last two minutes guranteed which means even if you are rreally bad you still get 2 minutes it also encourages people to fight insted of camping(One of my friends didn't give a K.O. and gave 39 damage to 240 and got second in his first elimantion round)
Also try to start the torutaments at 12:00 or 12:05
Say the line stops for single player mariokart at 12:05 that way we can start on time because Mariokart didn't take as long as you hink because we didn't start till 12:30.
i don't know the code to get my clan image so just pretend it's there
"Tourtis Exvias Eunt"(yeah latin)
[gtlogo:TC]

i am fine with time but it wont help camping too much because you can just go in for the kill after people are at like 125% damage. I don't think we should have it during any 1v1 macthes if we have any, simply because after you kill some1 you can sd yourself get full% back and still be beating your opponent by 1 point

"Not after the last time"

All I have to say is: w00t. Vaccinated Monks represent!!!

I agree with Bad Driver; we should have the tournament actually start at 12:00, rather than 12-ish, which it has been for pretty much as long as I can remember. Last tournament, things really didn't get rolling until about 12:45 or so, if I remember correctly. Also, moving matches to 2:00 per match will help speed things up, since quite a few of the matches last time went to the full three minutes, and then past that for the Sudden Death. 2 Minutes per match will speed things up quite a bit. Having two separate seasons would be a very baaaad thing. It makes it a lot easier and more convenient to have both game tournaments going on during the same day.

<strong>Church</strong>: Oh man, listen to you. What are you going to do with two chicks?
<strong>Tucker</strong>: Church, women are like Voltron. The more you can hook up, the better it gets.
[gtlogo:VMC]

ahhhhh u guys time 2 minute was my idea. i said time for the FFA and stock for the 1v1. teaming up isnt such an issue in time cuz its the kills u get. time would save time and be more effective the only thing is there might be a lot of ties for 2nd and 3rd place. there we wil apply the proper score so a tie for 3rd would be 40 points to each person(eli the scoring wasent changed at the tournament)it was still 100 60 30 10. we should make it 100 70 40 10.

o yea 2 seasons=bad
[img_assist|fid=97|thumb=1|alt=Trouble Monkey Clan|caption=Logo for the AADL-GT Trouble Monkey Clan.]

If you notice Tom said 2 min. not 2 min. time. I think he still meant it to be stock.

<strong>Edit:</strong>
I don't think seperating the tournament is the best idea. One it cuts the prizes in half and two it means you have to go to twice as many tournaments.
[gtlogo:VMC]

Gaaah, me long siggy no work!

No, Sravan. We're not saying make the matches two minute time battles, we're saying take the 2-stock matches to a limit of 2 minutes instead of three.

Let me a gree with Duck, but clarify one thing. We don't just think that two separate tournament series in not a good idea, we just think it's a straight up BAD idea.

[img_assist|fid=97|thumb=1|alt=Trouble Monkey Clan|caption=Logo for the AADL-GT Trouble Monkey Clan.]

Sudden Deaths separate the good players from the bad. A player who wins a sudden death match is good enough to avoid the other player's attacks, take them out AND avoid the falling Bob-Oms, if it lasts long enough. You're trying to tell me that that's not some skill right there?

or it could mean that the other person got hit with a bob-om first, or that you just used the c-stick and hoped that you hit the person, or you could have a very fast caracter on a really big stage, or that in hyrule temple you bounced off the wall wrong and survived got up hit them with an attack and make them die, or you might of kicked the other person in the shin so that they would be distracted long enough to kill them

"Not after the last time"

Simply going into sudden death would imply that the 2+ players that got are in it are pretty evenly matched. So all it is doing is speeding it up so we can get more matches.

You know I really like the Idea of being able to choose our karts but I prefer playing with 8 people.

Whoops. I realized that on my way home today. I based the gtplayer filter on the gtlogo functionality, but I forgot to loop through all of the content. You'll only ever have one gtlogo, but you could have many gtplayer tags.

I'll fix it tomorrow. ;)

I think Eli should get his own logo. Someone should make one that's like a coat of arms or something. Something that says "King Of The Geeks" or something on it.

To be perfectly precise, I believe that the ratio of nonverbal communication to my actual skill (as judged by the most objective and impartial source possible: myself) is 1:7.8999965, which, as those who have had the dreadful misfortune to read the pre-tournament forum are aware, is a substantial claim, even though, to the best of my knowledge, there is no fixed exchange rate between the length of the products of late-night prolixity and eye-hand coordination. It occurs to me that this would seem to be an excellent opportunity to establish such a going rate, and I hereby reserve the exclusive privilege of doing so when I see fit.
I realise, of course, that this boast (which, I assure you, is not (fully) idle!) represents a challenge to all other worthy gamers in attendance at the Library events; let it be so.

May the best carbon-based lifeform be triumphant in the next titanic struggle for the dominion of all Ann Arbor!

Good Day!

-----Pickwick the Second-----

PS: Monsieur le Roy de Geeks, I wish to repeat my earlier statement that I shall voluntarily limit the extensitivity and prolixitosity(which, by the by, is not a word that you will find on the Internet; this is not, of course, proof of its nonexistence, and the most powerful evidence in favour of the existence of any word is its appearance among my scribblings) of my submissions to this, and any, forum that may deign to appear in the future along this particular path down which the inevitable progression of time, carrying us with it, marches.

Um, ideally, wouldn't one's leaderboard score be the sum of all of the points earned in each individual event? Cause if it is, then I have about 690 right now, not 540. Unless there's some sort of conversion system that I don't know about...

The full team scores are reported, which is split between the two team members for individual score totals. So if your team placed first and received 100 points, it adds 50 points to your individual total.

It was a trade-off between showing actual final scores or showing numbers that would add up to your individual total. Perhaps I can find a way to display both without being too obtrusive.

Proxility, if anyone is wondering, means wordiness. Here's an example from Romeo and Juliet, when Romeo crashes Juliet's party.

<em>ROMEO What, shall this speech be spoke for our excuse?
Or shall we on without a apology?

BENVOLIO The date is out of such prolixity:
We'll have no Cupid hoodwink'd with a scarf,
Bearing a Tartar's painted bow of lath,
Scaring the ladies like a crow-keeper;
Nor no without-book prologue, faintly spoke
After the prompter, for our entrance:
But let them measure us by what they will;
We'll measure them a measure, and be gone.</em>

monkeyman i think its too late for that and u should have realized J's Coolio wasent that good before hand. btw he won't like u very much after he knows that u wanted to trade him.

eli padouk of the turtle clan was not at the august tournament and tp2 got a sub. he wasent at the september tournament either and tp2 got a sub again. when i click his name it says he has 40 points from round 1 in august. how is this possible if he wasent there? i think we should take away 40 points from the turtle clan. its not like they need it they have over 1500 in recruitment bonuses.

duck they copied their clan name from the movie dodgeball:a true underdog story. there is a dodgeball team in the tournament called skillz dat killz and they get beaten by average joes. that is such a funny movie. one good thing about their name is they dont base it on one player *cough*black shark*cough*.

</em></em>Enough of that slanty stuff. Ya'll should be more careful about closing your tags. =)

Oh, and far be it from me to correct the "King of all Geeks", but the correct format for the clan logo is just <strong>gtlogo:CODE</strong> surrounded by square brackets.

/*== [:/ejk|ejk] ==*/

Off with his head! No-one corrects the King! You should have changed the tag to fit my whim!

Sorry about the round 1 thread, when I closed it I accidentally turned off the comments. They are back.

I like having the idea of a GT hall of fame.
Any ideas and who should vote and what standards should be.
Also please stop added qutoes at the ends of your post there really annoying

The GT Leader board and Regular Accounts are differnt things if you only want to be known by one you have to change both.

Good Morrow!
<em>You know what? I don't care what people say... You DO have a vague idea of what's going on here! Yay for you!!!!</em>
Goodsir the Major, I must protest at your cavalier usage of the English language for the belittlement of others. When you feel that you must, for the sacred obligations of honour, duty, or personal amusement, make an effort to inflict some form of harm upon the self-image of another entity, it is honourable and, indeed, customary, in some circles, to utilize a more circuitous, lengthy, eloquent, and, in a pair of words, less direct means by which to insult them. Also acceptable is the more-direct frontal assualt implemented in conjunction with the use of a lesser-known vocabulary, perhaps of older stock; a textual excerpt that illustrates this last could be found in the post, located on the previous Tournament forum, wherein I castigate brutally the contemptible, ignoble reprobates and malefactors responsible for the widespread destruction of eardrums at the September Competition.

As for the one-word post, I think you will find that it is not only likely to happen again, but that I fully intend to post a one-<em>letter</em> message at some point in the near future. This, however, is not to be that particular communique, as, by this time, you have likely discovered. Due to the events subsequent to my earlier, somewhat rash implementation of a tactic dubious with regard to ethics by which I was to gain the office of "longest poster," which act may have resulted in my loss of good standing in the eyes of the King of Geeks, I believe that I am highly unlikely, at this point in time and in many times which are to succeed this moment, to craft a message of epistological proportions for fear that I might bring the wrath of Eli onto myself or my clanmates.

On the same subject, I must ask, for the purpose of clarification: Eli, am I (or, potentially, others) allowed to use as much space for each message as I might wish, so long as I actually take the time to compose each in its entirety (without merely duplicating and adding to a prior four-page post), or should I limit myself to a specific word-count and/or page length?

Good Day!!!!!

-----Pickwick the Second-----

PS: Sir Ducksalot, you only sold one! Bad! Bad! You're a terrible excuse for a person! The other Robotics Ian sold 18, and he looks almost, sort of, kind of, a little bit like a younger version of yourself...
On an unrelated topic, I would like to rephrase my earlier question: Who is your favourite potential candidate for the Presidency in 2008? They MUST be eligible for the office!!!!! This may be answered by the general public as well. 500 words or more, with a minimum of three pages--single-spaced(use long words!) This assignment will be due at any time in the future, though it must occur before the Earth is engulfed by the Sun or the paper will ignite, rendering it somewhat unreadable.

-----Pickwick the Second-----

Your advice is duly noted, Pickwick, but I must admit that I do not have quite the command of the English language that you do, my good sir. I merely stoop down to the other person's level so as not to confuse him, at it has yet to be shown whether he can fully comprehend words that consist of more than 5 letters per word.

Yes, I only sold one. So the other Ian repersents a me when I was more inclinded to try and sell stuff. If I had not been told to not go Door to Door I would have done so and have sold a much larger quinity.

Pickwick, you retain the right to post as much verbosity as you can reasonably muster. I, accordingly, retain the right to hassle you about it as I see fit, and will call you on the carpet as need be when cheap gimmicks are used in pursuit of arbitrary and capricious goals. Be aware that your good standing is not in jeopardy, even if you should happen to receive such royal rebuke.

In short: I impose no hard limits on quantity nor quality, as should be painfully obvious. That doesn't mean I can't complain as appropriate.

Good Morrow, and many thanks, Your Majesty! I shall not, for some time, have many consecutive minutes of free time, due to the competing considerations of school, homework, Robotics Club, homework, practicing music, homework, attending Toastmasters' meetings, homework, and a twenty-page term paper for AP History, among others, so it is not likely that I shall avail myself of this privilege at the present time. In future, however, I should like to return, perhaps gradually, to the lengthy, ponderous, and completely, absolutely, thoroughly prolixitous (now that I am aware of its rarity, my fondness for that particular word has increased twelvepointeighttwofold) nature of my earlier posts. Currently, as you may, perhaps, have guessed, I am hard at work on a Study Guide for History; by the time I have finished, it will be nigh on the beginning of my first-hour class, which is, of course, AP US History. If, by an odd chance, you had NOT guessed this, it may be, of course, for the reason that the phrase 'hard at work' does not of itself evoke an image of a homework-laden young adult typing an overly-long addition to the forum; this position becomes ever more self-evidently true as my post to the other tourney forum is perused, as I took a period of time somewhat less than half an hour to compose it. In conclusion, despite my brief period of inattention to assignments, I work harder than our President does; ergo, I should be called upon to replace him.

Major Tom, there is one word in your post which calls out to me, begging to be answered, and that word is "command." This is key: you, as a Major, should be fully in command of the English language, which is only a Private, First Class. It is but a tool, with which you may insult, castigate, abuse, humiliate, derogate, cast metaphorical stones, and otherwise denigrate others, if such be your wish. One method by which you may practice more fully making use of the full range of the many and varied talents of language is to acquire a relatively comprehensive thesaurus; once you are in possession of the said thesaurus, you should compose your intended message. When, under ordinary circumstances, you would post your comment, take your newfound friend in hand and search for each noun, verb, and adverb; exchange a synonym for the word, first ensuring that the basic meaning of the word remains the same (this is the tricky part.) Next, if you wish to mask your use of a thesaurus, you should develop a random selection process; mark half of the exchanged words randomly. Look each of these words up in the same thesaurus and select a new replacement; it must, of course, have a meaning vaguely resembling that of the original word. You may repeat this process as many or as few times as you wish, but you will find, over time, that, rather than using the thesaurus, you will be able to issue direct orders and commands to the words and phrases to line up in specific ways.

I really should return to my Study Guide; it is highly probable that you will have the pleasure (I hope...) of hearing from me again before dawn.

Good Time When it Begins to Seem as though your Homework will Outlast the Night!

-----Pickwick the Second-----

PS: I have several additional comments to make. The first is that I finally remembered why I add a postscript to most of my notes: the initials of my screenname are PS.
Secondly, I would like to come out against the new Supreme Court nominee on the basis of her COMPLETE lack of experience on a court, which is not, unfortunately, unprecedented; her devotion to George W. Bush and his policies, which has lasted for several years and indicates a severe moral depravity; and because of her lack of documented history: she works for the government, but, as with John Roberts, the Bush Administration is not going to release all the pertinent documents, citing the privacy right granted to attorney-client relationships, despite the fact that they are/were both employed at taxpayer expense.
As Major Tom said, all posts should end with a quote; this is, of course, from Glorious Leader Bush:
<em>(In response to a question from an audience member who has to work three jobs in order to support her family:) "You work three jobs? Uniquely American, isn't it? Get any sleep?"</em>

Eli-derek has been informed by his hockey team that he will be out of town on every day that there is a tournament...so remove him from our clan. Ask sravan who the replacement will be.

tom we want the games to have some luck but not all. duck sudden death doesnt mean they are evenly matched i would get in one with u and i would beat if if there was no timelimit to stock. one guy could have 100% and the other guy could have 10% which is what happened in most matches. tom in the post about scoring,schedule and prizes eli said he turned it down cuz there were too many sudden deaths there and the best player doesnt always win. first u say sudden death is all skill then u say to flare that it was luck and thats just cuz he has bad luck but its a mix of both. 2 minute time is the way to go for a FFA. then back to the old rules for 1v1.

BCL u are really sucking up to duck just cuz he is #1 in the leaderboard and he actually wanted to figure out that u were the spanish person. BTW for those of u who go to huron do u guys know these freshman-nick wang,vivek thanabal, brian yang,vijay natarajan,will liu, daniel chen?

Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alien nation.
Everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
Convincing them to walk you

this is easy if u guys actually listen to music...

sravan there is a problem with your logic, duck may be first on the leader board but that is only because of monkey ball, he got 1780 pts just from the surprize round. THere would be no point in "sucking up" becuase he will not join our clan, and if i vs him in melee he would be an average competitor. In addition to that, duck does not know who i am, he would not be able to recognize me at the tournament. TP2 on the other hand got just about none of his points from surprize. ARe we done with with this yet sravan? we are arguing about the most pointless topic.

By the way sravan, if you have not figured out which characters i play as, you might want to practice a different character than fox. I do not lose to foxes. Honestly i hope i get to go up against you in one of these coming tournaments. Maybe the all ages melee.

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww man, this sucks. My clan is now in 7th place, but that's still okay because it takes the top 8 to be in the clan cup. I also found out that my teammate, Nick11 can't come to the next tournament, the sub I have for him is the guy known as "Ashley."
C ya on October. O, and Sravan u have done this before, it's American Idiot by Green Day. Try this on 4 size:
You depend on our protection
Still you feed us lies from the tablecloth

Dancing in the desert blowin up the sunshine.

That's it, now answer please! And then do the truffle shuffle.

I know this not because i listen to the music, I just spent 3 seconds googling that. I usually don't listen to music.

noah the top 4 do...maybe eli will change it but i doubt that.

ok BCL i wont argue anymore. well u are about to lose to a fox when u play me! i think i saw u at the tournament u were really tall and wore a green shirt and always hung our with steven. i look forward to playing u BCL. maybe if i dont beat u with fox i will with marth.

tp2 on the final melee match with 16 ppl left and u had to get 1st to move on i saw on the score board thing that u got 4th. What happened man u are really good at melee u even beat me? if they teamed up on u then they are losers.

do u guys know any of those freshman

the answer is system of a down
EDIT:BCL beat me to it

ok here are some suggested rules for the melee only tournament cuz we all want this one to be fair.

first off start with 6-10 FFA's-3 stock 4 minute time limit.
then get the top 16(top 32 depending on turnout)and go march madness 1v1. 1v1 rules are-2 stock 3 minute time limit.
scoring-1st-100,2nd-7-,3rd-40,4th-10

yea as tom said ur logo is black shark ur clan name is black shark and u wanted to be called black shark for a while now and not noah but i'll call u both noah. im pr0 now and i dont mind if ppl call me sravan i actually dont want them calling me pr0 even though it sounds good.

if u take foregin language its like a spanish name u wont remember everyone's for some time so u call them by their real name or they have a nametag...

He will do nothing, because he can't. He is, and forever will be Black Shark. Moses, to be perfectly honest, is just a straight up stupid name. Black Shark had at least some semblance of coolness with it. Not anymore.

I was just pointing out you bad logic. If you like Moses then stick with but don't be surprised or angry when someone calls you black shark because we know you better as black shark.

isnt it sad that the super shrooms and the foregn exchange are higher then the black shark clan and they have only been to 1 tournament...

i predict that the black shark clan wont do as well in the next one because they dont have nick g.

eli can u take derek out of our clan and replace him with darksoul?

another idea for the melee only tournament.
we can do it like the mkdd ones last year except not have a battle tournament. we have 2 events single and team, then the top 4 single people and the top 4 teams advance. then we have the suprise round where every person has to play every other person one way or another. worst case senerio we will have 12 people and i think its 12C4 which is 12!/(8!*4!) so 495 possible ways we can group them together to play. then we get the top 4 and do 1v1 best 2/3(or no 2/3 w/e eli wants)then we get a 1st and 2nd then we have a 3rd place match yay!

Well I see the Super Shrooms dropped hunterkirby for jlgelinas. That's probable because hunterkirby wasn't that interested in coming to other tournaments.

Shouldn't Beebles and I have 2 first places in melee team.

Sravan, his name is Nick11 or Nick K., not Nick G. But I got a sub who is as good as he is. He is worst than him at Mario Kart, but he is better than him at Super Smash Bros. He is the one known as "Ashley".

Yeah, miniblin asked me to be in his clan. I'm sorta concerned though, because I don't even know who the other two people in his clan are. &gt;_&gt;

noah is he a girl? i saw hunter kirby but he only did single mario kart.

By the way, is there an online schedule of all AADL-GT events, including all the ddr/singe melee/etc stuff? I checked the events section of the site but all they list is the october tournament.

Yeah the other two people aren't the best. They are both juniors. Vash is in my history class and Skippy was in my art class last year. Skippy was at the NZ tournament and came in second in Melee after I crushed him and he did bad in MK. There were 8 people and he got 7th. Mind you the NZ doesn't have great video game players. With 3 stock I lost 1 life in the whole tournament and it was a kamikaze in my first match.

Eli can we please get a complete schedule?

Wow, that is the most ignorant, bigoted statement that I've heard in a long time. Besides which, have you considered that Moses was an extremely important person in Jewish history, and there very well may be some Jewish people out there who are offended by you using his name.

I agree with leinad that was an ignorant statement, Black Shark, you should be more careful about your screenname. There may also be very well some Christian people out there who are also offended by that name. speaking of screen names, leinad, I just realized where your screename comes from.

"Ashley" is not a girl, his real name is Teddy Alverez, for some reason, he likes to go by the name "Ashley". Hey, Eli, can one of the surprise round games be one of the Mario Sports games. I like the tennis, baseball, and I heard thata Mario Soccer game is coming out soon. Think about it. Guys, can u please lay off my team, the only reason were in 7th is that I'm the only one on my clan team who isn't a noob(techincally, Omid isn't either, but he didn't play in the GT in December, and I'm much better than he is a mario kart), and I haven't played SSBM ever since I last played it with Pr0 and C0n. Nick11 has been our best player and he'll be out for the next tournament. I sure hope "Ashley" can do as well as he can, maybe better, I don't know, I've never seen him play before, but I heard that he won the SSBM tournament at a camp called Camp Caen last summer.

Hey Eli, I think one of the surprise games should be in the sports category. Like maybe NBA Live 2006 or MVP 2005 or NHL 2006. Madden didn't count because it was in the preseason. Please, Eli? Nobody answered my last question.

Let My People Go!
[img_assist|fid=123|thumb=1|alt=Black Shark Clan]

Moishe, thanks for your input, but we already had a sports surprise round, the preseason certainly did count. However, we will have some madden tournaments super bowl week and we'll see how that goes. Sports games just aren't that big a draw, they take forever, and I find them dull and uninspired.

Okay Noah, I will no longer use your logo.
Yeah, You can do just any type of graphic editing with photoshop. Personally I would not use it for creating images. Just for editing, but you can use it to create images if you want.

"I hate white sharks"

"Maybe it is one of your fans black shark. they saw you on T.V. and is an avid fan of you."

Dude, someone at school actually told me they saw me playing ssbm on tv and step down after qualifying. Apparently they were channel surfing and heard my name. So yes, people do watch us play on tv! D:

And the fact that people have no trouble coming up with a half dozen or more players to put in the HoF is proof of my point. It should be <em>way</em> more exclusive than that.

By the way, Ben should be back on the 22nd. No crew regatta. &lt;_&lt;

Normally this is where I would whip out Sravan's whole name but since Eli deleted the section that Sravan says his whole name I won't be able to put it up.

So it is really like you sitting around and coming up with ways of improving yourself. So in essence it's school only without the learning of knowledge but the devolpment of sprit. Plus you have to make up all your school work anyways.

the hall of fame is a good idea. maybe everyone who has gotten a prize in either seasons should be in which is like everybody. none of those newcomers can do it either cuz they didnt get a prize. my friend is obsessed with 1984 and i saw it at hollywood video the other day but isnt it rated R?
[img_assist|fid=97|thumb=1|alt=Trouble Monkey Clan|caption=Logo for the AADL-GT Trouble Monkey Clan.]

Yes, A Hall Of Fame done that way would be good for me, because I won prizes last year, so I would be in it.

And in no way, shape, or form, should we begin to discuss politics on this forum. This is a forum for AADL-GT. If you want to bash Bush, go to moveon.org or something.

Who's Evil Bus Driver in real life?

And I have an idea for Eli. You should let the top four or so people on the leaderboard that don't qualify for the grands get into the grands. This would help people who come every time and do well, but just don't make the final cut, which is much harder this season with so many people.

"Faulheit ist eine Tugend"
[gtlogo:VMC]

Evil Bus Driver is Mike Beech.
And yes, I agree with Leinad's proposal for entry into the grands. Somebody who is quite bad could qualify out of sheer luck in Melee or something, while someone who has come to every tournament, participated in every event, etc., wouldn't make it, which isn't quite fair.

When IS the melee only tournament? =/ It isn't listed under events and it doesn't have a blog post.

As for a hall of fame I think season two is a bit too early to consider that. Maybe when the third season is already under the library's belt they can look back and see who, if anyone, really had a lasting impact or left a significant legacy. I imagine if we made one now it would be full of merely transitory players, their roles exaggerated by recent memory and a relatively small pool of candidates. &gt;_&gt;

"Next up is our 13+ SSB-only tournament, Friday, October 21st, at 6:00 PM, and then Round 3 on Saturday, October 22nd, from Noon to 5:00 PM."
It's at the bottom of Eli's original post.

By the way, since I am using your logo I am advertising your clan. Just like that one guy who dressed up as ronald mc donald and went to burger king. He got kicked out, but what the manager failed to realize is that Ronald Mc Donald was eating at burger king. WHich means that he prefers burger king as opposed to his own restaurant. However I am curious how did you come up with the name BLACK SHARK.

You must have improved the game.

How do you get the logo (Elis thing doesn't make sense computers aren't my best thing

Put it in square brackets bad driver.

I'm pretty sure the way Moses came up with black shark was something like this "I want something that ties me to black culture, black would tie me to black people and something fierce and dangerous, how about shark , Black Shark, I like it, it's got a ring to it." So that is presumably how Black Shark came up with his name.

Black Shark that isn't how photoshop works. You could change the color or sprite boundaries, but if you just want to add teeth use paint.

"TORTURIS EXUVIAS EUNT"

Moishe, he didn't take your name. The system does not let more than one user have the same name. You changed yours, so 'Black Shark' was available. As for the clan logos, it's definitely bad form for Black Shark to use someone else's logo, but I'm not going to spend time preventing it. By the way, guys, the proper tag to get your clan logo is just gtlogo:CODE in square brackets: [ ]. Just put it in your signature on your my account > edit page, and you'll never have to worry about it again.

TP2, you can do anything with photoshop. Penny Arcade is drawn completely in photoshop. Using MS paint to edit an image is like using a screwdriver to do an appendectomy.

The Nintendo Broadband adapter does not let you play Doubledash online. It's exactly what we use to do lan play at the tournaments. It can connect to the internet through a router, but the game has to support it. There is only 1 game for gamecube that supports internet play, and that's Phantasy Star Online. Only Kirby's Air Ride, 1080 Snowboarding, and Doubledash support LAN play using the broadband adapter.

It is possible to play Mario Kart against people over the internet using an application called [http://cubeonline.warppipe.com/|Warp Pipe], which you run on a computer on your network, and one on your opponent's network, to create a tunnel over the internet that your gamecube thinks is a LAN. Kip and I tried it once, and even though we both have pretty fast connections, Mario Kart works, but it's too slow to be playable.

Regardless, don't buy a broadband adapter thinking that it gives you access to some mystical internet utopia of Doubledash experts who you can play against whenever you want.

That's what [http://ds.ign.com/articles/656/656195p1.html|Mario Kart DS] is for.

we had an assignment on the word utopia like where u say what yours would be. mine was i schooled everyone in double dash and melee...o wait thats real life!

eli u posted a comment but u didnt reply to my mail :(

Sravan, please chill. I'm not ignoring you, I'm just busy. You would probably have more cred if you didn't whine to the whole forum that you sent me an email and didn't get a response for 3 whole business days.

Have you played Kart DS, Leinad? I have, and while I agree that Double Dash is better, Kart DS is very, very, very good and, as I mentioned in my PAX report, has the return of some beloved gameplay features, like jumping, spinning shells, and the banana train. Great courses too.

But, then there's <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/entry/1234000597060556/&quot; title="Mario Kart GP is coming to US arcades this month. Which arcades? Who knows?">this</a> <a href="http://www.planetgamecube.com/media/237000001.jpg&quot; title="Surely you've learned by now to investigate my links closely. This picture of Mario Kart GP is your reward.">thing</a>.

i thought u would read the blog so i was posting to tell u it. yes double dash is funner then the DS one cuz there are 2 ppl in the karts. melee is better then both combined.

New hall of fame idea: how about if u get over 1000 points in any tournament u are in. this would probably include the prize winners cuz they get a prize round bonus and a event bonus. the people who won prizes last year might not be in cuz there are better ppl this year who are taking the points. i think this is who is in it so far:

me,galen,joe,darksoul,duck,bubbling beebles,doomblaze,earnest da chicken,jlgenilas,tp2,bowser(anti snowman),monkeyman,bad driver,piratey critter,Pickwick the second,jimmy d., and post. mini blin has like 990 so we should include him anyway cuz he's a cool guy.
[gtlogo:TMC]

No on Sravan's HoF idea.

Eli, nope, never played it. I was basing my opinion on the GBA MK, which was pretty bad as far as MK games go. I just assumed that another handheld one wouldn't be much better. I should get MKDS sometime and play it. But regardless, MKDD is one of my top 5 all time favorite games, so it's still better no matter what. (But OoT will always be #1)

And that Arcade Kart looks absolutely amazing. :-)

I agree, Leinad... I bought Super Circuit (GBA Mario Kart) and it stinks. I've barely played it at all. However, remember that the DS's graphics system is more powerful than the N64. Kart DS is true 3D (not mode 7 flat spinning maps like Super Circuit and Mario Kart for SNES), and it looks and plays great. Being able to play against your friends or random players matched to your skill from anywhere where there's wifi will be pretty incredible. Nintendo is even releasing an inexpensive <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/entry/1234000240061916/&quot; title="This thing is really genius. Too bad it's only for windows.">USB Wifi adapter</a> you can plug into your internet PC for quick, easy DS (and presumably revolution) net access if you don't have wireless at home already.

Also, Leinad, I loved OoT too, but I've been playing through it again with my son recently, and I have to say, it hasn't held up well, especially after playing Wind Waker. The control and camera in Wind Waker are so much more refined and effortless, it's really hard to get into OoT again. It makes me think "Why am I playing this when I could be playing Wind Waker?" Other than the obvious fact that you'd probably be done with Wind Waker by the time you finished asking yourself that question... =)

Wind Waker's story was kinda bland for a while until (spoilers) happen. Ive beaten it through. Now im about halfway through my second time. (y'know where hes wearing his pajamas the second time through.) Its not a bad game and all, but ill always like OoT better.
Until I dicovered FF7 though. But, thats another topic.

Oot is a very good game. it is number one on game rankings and in the top 10 on many other sites. i played it and its my favorite zelda game. i played the super circut a few years ago at wal mart and i hated it as well its harder to conrtol your car and staring at a small screen for a long time will ruin ur eyes. darksoul is like the zelda king he is very skilled and beat the game in front of me.

Eli, your points about camear and control are correct, but you have to remember: Wind Waker came out several years and a new system AFTER OoT. For what they had at the time, OoT is practically top of the line.

Of course, Tom, OoT was a huge breakthrough and I loved every minute of it. Plus, gold cartridge. I remember very clearly that my wife called around for me while I was at work and found a place that had an available gold cartridge on launch day (there were rumors that only prebooks got the gold cartridge), and it was waiting for me when I got home!

Now, I know that Omid is always trying to convince us that he unlocked the nonexistent Sonic in Melee, but did you know that there is actually, truly, an [w:arwing] <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/entry/1234000533061925/&quot; title="You need a gameshark to see it, of course, but it's really there, unlike Omid's Sonic.">hidden in the code</a> of OoT?

Two things. One, Omid is wrong (and stubborn). Two: Come on now, you have to use a <strong>GameShark</strong> to get it. If it was in there normally, I could understand that. But a GameShark just takes some of the coolness away from it.

dont be dissing omid, it was noah who said that. u can use the game shark to get the debug menu in ssbm. in that u can play as master hand and such.

I am not reading all of that... was there anything important that came up? oh yes, I like OoT as well, it's just that the game was not as long as I would like. Majora's mask was was shorter which was depressing, but windwaker is an insult to the legend of zelda series.
By the way, what is the story line to the legend of zelda now, I lost track since they change the plot each game...

How on Earth can you say that Ocarina Of Time was too short! That game took forever to play! Ok, I suppose if you <strong>just</strong> went through and did the dungeons and all of the necessary sidequests <strong>only</strong> to beat the game, you could do it in about 24 hours or so of play. But only losers do that. You're not a loser, are you BCL?

Oh, and I wasn't saying that the Turtle Clan 2 Logo was bad, it just fails miserably at trying to be black. <strong>Miserably.</strong> Yes, I know that we took our logo from Halo, but still, it looks awesome, so shut up.

didn't the ocerina have this chamber where u get past 6 parts, then u have to fight 100 people? how can u say that was short? lets talk about super mario sunshine i really liked that game. The graphics were cool and the game was a little hard at first but then i got the hang of it. I have 119/120 shines and i need 9 blue coins to get the last one. darksoul got all 120 shines though. also it sold a lot of copies i think its in the top 3 for most sold games on gamecube. can you belive melee was 4th place its better then all of the gamecube games. except metroid that was fun but i dont think u can do multiplayer on that.

yea i went to that site i got the link from gamefaqs. its really cool what he does with luigi they show a clip of wavedashing. then they show luigi do some meteor smashes and wavedashing. next time dont copy and paste just give the ppl the link

Good Morrow!
I'd like to report a burglary... no, that's Monty Python. I'd like to report a success on performing my first, second, and third wavedash, as well as a near-success in the region of power-shielding: twice in the period of a minute. I think that's the only barrier the scaling of which remains to be accomplished before my receipt of the Diskun Trophy.
Good Luck!
---------Pickwick the Second---------

wavedash isnt a bonus its a skill that the game doesnt know about cuz u do a extremely low angled air dodge and it converts it into a horizontal movement.

[gtlogo:TMC]

Good Morrow!
Quite so; I had merely intended to refer to the power-shielding as being of meritous nature and deserving of a trophy.
Good Luck!!!!!
-----Pickwick the Second-----

Good Morrow!
Indeed, it would seem to be so, for the time being; it is anybody's guess as to the length, in metres, of the time remaining ere it is closed to the general public for the remainder of this age.
Good Day!

PS: By the way, I have garnered myself the Power Shielder bonus over the weekend, yet still have not the Diskun Trophy earned. I have all the bonusii named by BCL in years past as prerequisites, and I know not what else I lack; has anyone else a suggestion?

I don't think anyone except you (Pickwick) and I will post on this tread.

So Pickwick does the new Hierarchy in robotics supersede the required hours or are they equal? I just want to know if we want quantity or quality. Or if we won't have an away team at all with both requirements. Since only freshmen will be able to devote all their time to be at meeting and freshmen don't have the experience to do it alone. I know that there will be a few exceptions for who can go to the away competition if we have both requirements but freshmen plus Eric D., Eric R., Mercy and You doesn't make for a good away competition.

Good Morrow!
What you say is quite true. For written records: Eligibility for the competitions will be determined based on total number of hours rather than on number of meetings attended. The latter method is, as you say, stupid. We might be forced to institute a minimum amount of money raised (group fundraisers like the printer cartridge pickup would probably count toward all participants), but that would be a last resort; we REALLY don't want to have a requirement that borders on charging club dues, which is illegal(I think.) We do need money, though; using nearly half our time before the money is due, we have raised a mere pittance of about a thousand dollars, less than a quarter of our goal. During this time, we have run three fundraisers (Cookie dough, Poinsettia, and the other one), the first of which saw the involvement of 15 students. The poinsettia sale was somewhat disorganised on our part, which may have contributed to the miserable showing of 3 students, one of whom (Jonny Johnson) sold 64 poinsettias to earn $190 for the club. We have four more ongoing fundraisers: Coupon books, for which we are to pay by next Friday; Duct Tape, which is kicking in on Saturday; the Printer Cartridge/Old Cell Phone/Toner Cartridge/Pager pickup, which will occur on Saturday and, perhaps, again at a different time; and, finally, the can/bottle drive, which is sort of an ongoing collection effort(I don't know if it brings in any revenue, because everybody has forgotten about it, if they ever knew it existed...) More are coming up, including the Candy Sale, which netted the largest profit of any single fundraiser last year. The bottom line, though, is that, unless we can persuade people other than Little Ian, Alvin, myself, and Jonny to make an extra effort for the Team, we are not going to an Away competition.
I forgot to mention the first good news about our finances we've received this school year: we've been sponsored to the tune of $400 in store-credit from two stores, which means that we can recalculate our budget to put that sum toward the competition; that means we're almost a third of the way there, so, if the Candy Sale does especially well, we might make it. YEA!
As for the expectation that we are the only two who will post on this thread, it is my my opinion that you are forgetting another: the almighty Eli, Closer of Old Threads and Creator of New.
Good Day!
---------------Pickwick the Second----------------------

Good Morrow!
I must add, under the agreement that this is strictly confidential and shall under NO circumstances be communicated to any other members of the Club or members of the general NON-Robotics-enrolled populace, that the regulations are, quite probably, too stringent and will need to be altered based on the level of participation across the group. I hope they will help motivate all current members to increase their involvement significantly, but in the event that fewer than, say, a third or a half of the students meet them, we might decrease the number of hours required. Of course, that in and of itself would cause problems, as the student(s) just below the cutoff line might feel that they were deliberately excluded or unfairly treated, and that would be a bad thing. In the best case scenario, all members will make the cutoff and not a soul will be left behind for the Evil Bus Driver to collect in the back of his bus.
Just a few hours left(of pre-school time, not of homework...)
Good Day!

Well, it would seem that Eli has not yet closed this thread. I had been hoping that he would have taken action to close it while I still maintain my position of last poster, but alas, it was not to be. You'll probably get it. Well, enjoy it!
