Ha ha ha, screw that. You guys can turn off your sound if you don't like Mario Twins. The music really helps drive the message home.
I hope this helps you in some way.

Maybe we should just add a melee mode in which for every 30-60 seconds of either ship taking no damage 1 crew dies on both ships with a message 1 crew dies in boredom-related accident ? 
That should encourage the smaller ship's pilot to act.

Where do you live? Western Australia, Indonesia, Taiwan? I picked a time that was good for Europe and North America, but obviously that whole slice of the world draws the short stick. I'm really sorry about that, but there's not a lot that can be done. If 10+ Aussie players were to show up spontaneously, I'd tell them to host their own tournament.
Yep W.A., hey its not a problem i just have to remember to stay up late thats all. besides i reckon its probably worth it.
I think you mean "no less so" in that first sentence, and going by that I'm gonna have to call you on it. Spathi's range is rather short. The only thing that sucks about Spathi is that people try to play it like they do against the computer, forcing much longer matches than necessary. The truth is that Spathi needs to be played somewhat aggressively to get any mileage at all. Druuge can throw itself at a nice high speed with recoil, but after reaching a certain velocity the ship is simply flying out of control. A Druuge going at an insane velocity is very easy to catch and kill flying backwards on a wrap-around.
Yeah i will agree the thraddash does have more control of their velocity but i still reckon that other ships are equally good at dragging a battle out. Besides when i play torch it aint a long battle.
What is this video you speak of?

Here. As soon as you open the page, click "download". The page takes just as long to load as the download itself, so you may as well see the progress of it.

Hi! I'm new to the message boards. I'd like to be in this tournament, or maybe next month's so I have time to get better.
Anyway, is there a free IRC client I should use (for Windows)? What do you use?
I use this thing: http://www.silverex.org/download/

We did. You did. Yes we can. No.

Just because the course of action is sensible doesn't mean that it's fun.

Just signed up to say - I'll be coming along to this tournament. I haven't played melee against a human since star control 1 first came out on the amiga, but with any luck I'll add to the numbers and make a few good matches for a few players.

How long does a tournament normally take, time-wise?
2-3 hours? I can't give an exact estimate because some people tend to drag their fights out more than others. The last tournament we played was fairly short because we only had 8 people and the handicapped scores made things go by quickly.
