Hey everyone, it's time to get back into Brawl!
For a while after launch we had a great core group of Brawlers who would play every few days, but that sadly broke off over time. We even ran a fun little tournament (http://www.youtube.com/profile_videos?p=r&user=LonLonRabbit&page=1) back at EvAv which provided some memorable matches.
I personally haven't played for months, but find myself thinking every week how much I want to get back into the game. Some of the main Brawlers from back at launch have already expressed a similar sentiment so I'm sure we'll be able to get some good games going soon (special thanks to Baron for giving me a kick in the pants to start up this thread).
The question to all of you is, however, how structured do we want to make this? If we want this to last, I think we'll need to make a weekly Brawl night, so to start with everyone should reply here with what nights and approximate times suit them best.
In the meantime, I suggest you all also:
1. Hit up Doctor Setebos' great webpage (http://creator.zoho.com/evav_wii/codes) which he knocked up a while back to ease the pain of friend code sharing and add your details. If your details are already there, you might want to update your "Prime Time" info.
2. Head on over to AniAko's CoG Steam Thread (http://www.colonyofgamers.com/cogforums/showthread.php?t=98) and get yourself joined up to that group too which will make Brawl event notifications possible, and also make it easy for you to set up spontaneous Brawls any time of the week. If you don't use Steam or play any PC games, I would seriously consider grabbing the ap anyway as it gives us a place to chat and contact each other quickly before, during or after games.
Hope to be Brawling with you all soon!

My friend plays DeDeDe in the most annoying way possible. I'm a Zero Suit Samus man myself.
And my best nights are Wednesdays.
Lint of Death
10-05-2008, 11:33 AM
edit: Once a week sounds good, but Monday nights probably not - Heroes is on at 9PM EST for an hour so that conflicts a bit. How about Wednesdays?
I'm still a Wario man, with quite a bit of playtime now into P.T. and Falco.
Yeah, that's right, Falco. I thought I hated conforming to the "woah awesome STAR FOX" crowd of tourney types but then I realized that Falco was my worst character so naturally I started playing as him a lot. Also, he's fun!
And for those who are obsessed with Tiers, yeah, that's right, P.T. Even more fun than Falco.
Also, after a hilariously giddy-tired, late-night Brawl-fest with friends a few weeks ago, I feel the craving to compete with Captain Falcon.

I'd like to join in on some Brawl. I'm adding myself to the Wii Code site but I'm afraid I have a Mac so I won't be able to join in on Steam. Wednesdays are a pretty good night for me too, but Monday is okay too.
My Wii friend code should be in my sig and my Brawl code is: 2621 2301 8167

How do I change my info on that page?Thanks for pointing that out. I had enabled editing on the main view, but had neglected to add that ability to the Brawl code view. Now you should be able to just go to your entry and click "Edit" to change any of the info.
And before someone asks, yes, you can edit anyone's info, and no, you shouldn't. :p

Woot! Thanks for getting this started again, Lon Lon.
Finally got moved in tonight, so my Wii will be online once again this week.
Is anyone else a DeDeDer?
I started messing with him before I stopped playing Brawl. Might have to again. The big fucker can chain grab like a champ.
Wario, Luigi, Olimar, R.O.B. and Marth for me.
EDIT
I can do Mon-Thurs, preferable 10 or later EST.
...EvAv which provided some memorable matches.
Remember that ZSS vs. Olimar match we had on Pictochat, with the damage cranked down to like 50%? I think Lint witnessed it. Truly epic.

I am so fucking IN.
Pretty much any night can potentially work for me, I guess between 8 - 10 PM.
My work schedule is different form week to week, so I can't give solid dates. However, I usually don't work Mondays or Sundays. Everything else is fair game, and sometimes those nights.
Sounds awesome.
Wednesdays are best for me - Mondays after 7:30 Pacific would probably work as well.

Just a reminder, AniAko has specially set up the CoG Steam group so every lowly little member can set up an event - if you're about to play Brawl at any time, just throw up an announcement on the Steam group and hopefully some people will join you.
I will be doing this on Friday morning my time, should be thursday afternoon/evening for most of you guys.
I'll throw up an event announcement and hop in the CoG chat, it's easy for me as the tv is next to the PC but for those without such a setup you may need to hop into the chat and trade codes with me and anyone else playing before then going and starting up Brawl.

I'm grabbing the Wii from downstairs, setting it up and starting an event.
To make an event, go to the community tab on steam, click on the Colony of Gamers group (if you've joined it) and click "Schedule an Event" on the right hand side, under "Enter chat room" which you should also be doing.
If anyone's playing now hop in that chat room too if possible.
I'll be set up in the next ten minutes.

Dax, Jackel and I playing atm, Lint is trying to get connected.
Anyone else around?
So I'm thinking of rearranging stuff around so I can chat while playing SSBB, and I'm wondering what would work best.
If I get my computer by the Wii, who else could I chat with using it?
It'd probably be easier to move the Wii next to the 360 - anybody else who'd be willing to use it for chats during matches?
Lon Lon Rabbit
10-09-2008, 06:18 PM
I can chat through steam or skype on my PC.
Lint, Jackel, Dax, Tony and I were chatting by text on steam while playing today, but it supports voice too.
360 is not near the PC or Wii actually, but on a different tv, I may move it near the PC and Wii but I'm not sure.
Thanks everyone for the games tonight.
It's only midday here so if anyone still wants games feel free to message me on steam or something and I'll start up again.
Urizen
10-09-2008, 07:01 PM
I can do Skype or Steam, or whatever you guys prefer.
Question: Does anyone do a wired Wii connection? Is that any better than a wireless one for the system? I thought about buy have not invested in a Wii LAN adapter.
EDIT: Ondo, if you want to rumble late Pacific time tonight, let me know.
Lon Lon Rabbit
10-09-2008, 07:55 PM
I use a wired connection and it's a LOT better, but that may have more to do with our wireless network just being a bit crappy than anything else.
I just generally find it faster and more stable.

The online really is terrible compared to other games, but it's still fun. Either you or your friend must have a bit of a connection problem though as I have had perfectly smooth (framerate) games with people from across the globe, they just lag a bit. Sometimes it all goes to hell and it stutters like mad but especially if I'm just doing one on one, I most commonly have no frame lostt and just a bit of a delay. If you live that close to each other it really shouldn't be that bad.
Also I was here on day 1 (or 2, the first day people other than mods were here), just haven't been posting a tonne.

The lag's not bad once you get use to it; but the window for a hit and the timing for a lot of moves is much shorter than in local play. I die off of lost button presses or when I start button mashing a move, because the timing window has upped and changed on me. Just tonight when I was playing Wario against you, Lon Lon, I distinctly remember not jumping off my bike in time and driving straight off the edge because of lag.

That settles it for me. So, do you use the LAN Adapter or something special? Tell me your secrets.
Lon Lon Rabbit
10-10-2008, 01:33 AM
Yup a LAN adapter which I thought was Nintendo's official one but it's actually a Datel one I think.
They made the box look JUST like other official Wii products, and the dude at EB even told me it was the official one.
It works fine though, a little costly but I think that kind of device either works or it doesn't.
It's very easy to set up, just plug it all in and then set up a wired connection in the Wii options.

Charge affects height, but as far as I know the horizontal direction is random (unless there is some way to direct it which works differently to how other characters can angle their smashes).

I can do that. I'll check into the Steam thing. Do we have an official CoG Brawl group on Steam? I know the EvAv group is still lurking on there.
I'll be around later tonight if CoGers wanna Smash. We should make tonight the heavyweight night, where you're encouraged to use the heavyweights i.e. DDD, DK, Bowser, Ike, Samus, Snake, Wolf.

Just an FYI for you all: a new site for matchmaking just opened up recently called Thumbslap (http://thumbslap.com). I haven't used it, but I thought it might be worth checking out. It might be easier to coordinate Brawl nights using it than the CoG Steam group. I can't say for sure, but you guys can be guinea pigs. :D

Ultra-lazy frontpage impression: it doesn't do anything that Steam doesn't already do presuming all pertinent players are members of the group. Furthermore, Steam has that sweet group chat.

I'm just posting to let Variable Gear know that I d/c'd because my Internets are screwed again. What an unfortunate time, too!
Also, tonight's supposed to be a Heavy theme, right?

Heavyweights came through last night. In particular, we had a rather epic last match, with Ondo as Falcon, and Lint and I as Wario. Suffice to say, Lint and I spent the entire match wiggling about and trying to bite everyone and everything in sight. What's even better is that it came down to a Wario vs. Wario Sudden Death, and Sakurai saw fit to boot us from the NWFC.
Hope to catch ya'll on Sat. We stuck with the heavyweights theme last night, so let's do lightweights: Fox, Squirts, Jiggles, Pika, Diddy, etc.

Wait, Baron, did you get booted all the way back to offline, too? I could have sworn it was just my Internets failing again.

I'm more inclined to say the NWFC. I still don't understand how Brawl has such bad lag, yet when I'm playing online my Wii sucks up all the Wi-Fi bandwidth.

Also, I'll be around this weekend too. Never hesitate to ask me for a game.

And I think it was my tubes' fault. If I was booted back to the main menu while you just got sent to the Wi-Fi room, that means I lost my connection to the Internet. Believe me, at this new apartment that happens a lot, no matter what I'm doing. Back where I lived most of last year I never had random disconnects while playing Brawl. When it does work, it's usually kinda fast.

Going downstairs to grab the stepdown from the 360 and set up upstairs again, be sending out a Steam notice shortly.

Dear CoGeerz-
We're playing Brawl tonight. I know many of you don't care, and many of you will read this simply because you have nothing better to do with your time than to read pointless forum banter. But you're all welcome to an ass raping.

Our group worked pretty well last night, and I'd like it if we could get more consistent games going.
It'd be nice if we could aim for Monday nights from 9 PM EST. If you have a XBL gold account, makes sure you've got all of us added so that we can chat during the games. Also, be aware that your 360 controller will disconnect after a while because of lack of use, so you'll have to reconnect it from time to time.

Apologies guys! I had some friends come into town that I was totally not expecting. Caught me by surprise. And I was totally looking forward to laying waste to Baron. :( I'll definitely be there next time.

I stay up fairly late, and I've seen you on Xbox Live a few times recently, so it should be possible for us to get a match together sometime.

It's streamlined and now contains all Wii and DS friend codes for easy exchanges. If you had your codes in the old database as of last week, they should be in this one.
This new database is also linked in a sticky thread (http://www.colonyofgamers.com/cogforums/showthread.php?t=4062) in Console Haven.

Brawl tonight @ 10 EST. Unsure if I'll make it, but I know some of you have been wanting to play.
I typically turn off these items nowadays: Tomato, Heart, Dragoon Pieces, Final Smash, Ray Gun, Spinball, Cracker Launcher, Hammer, Golden Hammer, Starman, Barrel, Curry, Sandbag. Remember that NWFC will randomly select the item set of one player to use during the current match.
