[JRank]

If we don't get warstories I am going to kill someone.

Congrats to Paul and unreality! Smogon had a stronger showing here, hopefully an even stronger one next week! And a big thanks to WildEep for the play by play!

 

[Kid Kadabra]

We already have quite a few, I think

Great job Unreality and Makiri! :D Also it's great to see so many smogoners qualify this time around ^^.

 

[Kid Kadabra]

At least in Seniors, I'm pretty sure at least 14 of the 16 people who qualified for nationals were from smogon.

 

[breh]

Good job to both Metabou (it was metabou, right? okay, I have a memory longer than a few seconds) and Zerowing (or should I say REGIONAL CHAMP), as well as that one guy who lost to triple protect... yeah, that one was depressing.

It was a really cool final game; 1 HP Terrakion was beast.

I somehow managed to get into top 16. No clue as to how.

EDIT: Also, how could I forget the Seniors? >_<

Good job, Unreality!

[Unreality]

More than 500. Says AoK. Juniors and Seniors info were not disclosed for an unknown reason.

Edit: Scratch that ^^, staff member said nearly 1000!!

There were 8 seniors/juniors rounds; 22 juniors and 27 seniors made it to the finalists lounge.

 

[BlakBlastoise]

I had a blast. Really fun seeing all these familiar faces IRL, even though I didn't talk to anyone lol

There's nothing more intimidating that seeing a flock of ducks walk past you. I saw like 8 of them walking together and I nearly shat my pants lololololol

 

[voodoo pimp]

Ugh, lost in Top 64 after totally screwing up in Team Preview.

 

[AlphaOmega]

GOOD JOB UNREALITY. Epic match, and I might not write a warstory because my team might not change that much for Nationals. We'll see.

 

[kamz]

ughhh i hate paralysis. lost in top 8. also i aint coming to nats

 

[Cybertron]

Good job! (I see you on the 'Gym all the time :P)

How come you can't come to Nationals? :o

 

[kamz]

[ncsbert]

Congrats to Paul! Not only did he win, but he had to face both Huy & Duy along the way? Most impressive.

[Kikuichimonji]

Congrats to Paul! Not only did he win, but he had to face both Huy & Duy along the way?

He also faced Deagle and Metabou.

 

[ultimatedra]

i dont have the money to go.

two solutions for you:
1. Ask some gaming company's (GameStop, Play'n'trade, local shops) for them to sponsor you. Let them know that you have the invite already, and if they get you there - you basically become a walking billboard.

2. Start a charity/get donations to get you there.

daaaaaaaaaaaaaaang.

Nice.

 

[Tyler]

Get a job.

 

[Synre]

.... Yeah, probably not going to want to try anything ultimatedra suggested... especially from local branches of companies that probably don't even have the authority to make that sort of decision with their budget.




You could try, oh, I don't know, getting a job...
