Can anyone else get confirmation on worlds being in Hawaii next year? I saw a post stating it but that was about it. I'd love to go to Hawaii but that means I need a job asap =P
Gl to you tomorrow Human! I'm sorry to everyone who didn't make it. Best of luck next year! I still can't belive Snake didn't make it though.
Anyone know where nats are going to be? I haven't seen anything about that yet.
Pretty sure this is not how the technology works. After tagging each other via IR, the connection switches to ad hoc Wifi.
Actually at regionals this didn't seem to be the case, as a few of my friends had a problem with the connection, it indeed does use IR for the duration of the battle, not only initial connection. One of my friends lost because of the lag that was caused by the dses not getting a good IR signal.
I'm not. If he seriously did that.... what's even the point?
And the results have been interesting so far. I hope to see some excellent games tomorrow. I suppose there's no need to say good luck against Japan. I really hope they're able to participate next year, they always bring such great competition.
Firestorm, why are there no Canadians playing for World champ? We should fix that next year.
Operation Trick Room was a major failure for me ):
1-4, 25th in Seniors

Babbytron for juniors, Bluecookies to repeat in masters

It is IR the whole way through the match, but a constant line of sight is not required, just at times when actual communication is needed.
In the matches I played in my opponent picked their DS up at one point or another and I had to ask them to place their system back down on the table so the IR could communicate again.
Hello everyone, this is David Arnold. I just got back to my room, I had a blast and came in 12th place. My sister, Grace, came in 9th in juniors and my brother, Ryan, came in 19th in seniors. Good luck in the finals Human!
Canadians will reign supreme next year at Seattle Regionals :P
It seems all my strength was depleted in teaching Jewman how to go undefeated in seniors...
I got lucked out of basically every game except for 1 against Zog and vs tad38 where we both got an even amount. Oh well, playing on the TV for 4 out of 6 of my games because I was at the shit end of the division was great fun!

Congrats to you and the rest of the Arnold clan!
GO KAMZ!!! BY LITTLE BRO!!!
Seriously, Kamz & Jeremy are some very good players - but if Kamz wins, i am for sure going to Hawaii.

Congratulations to your family!
This pretty much needs to happen. Are there enough of us going to Seattle to take up all 16 finalist spots? In all three age groups? Maybe then we'll finally get VGC up here...
But seriously, we should probably get on that. :P
And congrats to the Arnold family! You guys always impress me (and make me jealous because I'm the only member of my family who plays).
Thank you so much. We always have a great time. Once we all started playing together the game became 10 times more fun. I encourage everybody to play, no matter what your age. Playing as a family really brings us together.
What a mad day. pretty good experience for a first proper VGC season.
I rolled in 27th though with 2-4 aha. R1 was to a perfectly timed crit against me, after though I was a bit down, and played pretty average, one match some hax made me pay for my mistakes hard. Not gonna blame it all on that, I wasn't really great with with Best out of 3 game overall.
It was a good day though, personal highlight was also being on the TV, and my prized Durant doing the business, after getting laughed at by those watching. Would love to go back next year.
