You are holding a Dr. Mario tournament and unlike those dorks and their XSMUCKS360's (Sam) you will not need anything but a computer and a good attitude.

Dr. Mario was a very serious and controversial game for it's time. The basic story was that Mario is coming and he's got the cure. That's basically it. I have a soft spot for this game since I was sick alot as a child and the idea that Mario had the cure made me feel better. I passed away at the age of 8 and still am.

This young man uses a style called The Marilyn Monroe to use the pills to his advantage.

The rules of the game

1. You need the internet to play the game with people outside of your area. You guys do have internet, right? It would be nice if you have a microphone so you can trash talk your opponent but it's not required. Dr. Mario can take a long time.

2. Anyone can play, but me.

3. No cheating! That's all!

There is no set date but I think you will be flexible and not force it all on one day. I'm a nice guy and sometimes you people forget that or take advantage of it, and did. I'm not big on prizes so there isn't one right now. Maybe you can donate to your church or temple, would you like that?

Now who's in. I'm not very good at the game so you might have a shot.

You can count me in. I also take Dr. Mario very seriously, I want to get to med school just because I want to be like him. I've already grown mustaches you know?

GADZOOKS · #3

How old are you? Are you breaking one of my rules? You break my rules and I'll break your neck.

RaNkeri · #4

Don't worry, I have fake IDs

GADZOOKS · #5

Oh this is a great start. SURE RANKERI YOU CAN PLAY IM SURE NO ONE WILL MIND PLAYING AT 4AM IN THE MORNING.

your neck is so bent, get ready to get dead

RaNkeri · #6

Dead is my middle name

Emu · #7

I will play

Chojin · #8

i'm in

Sam · #9

THE DOCTOR IS IN!

DOCTOR SAM!

Things are looking up! Though I will need proof that you are over 18, Sam.

Is there any NES emulator that records videos and supports Netplay. It would be a fun idea if we can record the games and then add any audio commentary. Then I can host them onto my Youtube account for all America to see. I'm no good with technology so I leave this to you guys to see if it's plausible.

Edit: 8 will be the magic number but I will allow fill-in's to put their name in the hat in case someone backs out. And if we can get 8 of those then we can have a super tournament (but since there is only 20 adults total on this board, I hazard not)

And everyone could hear my crappy ass pronunciation? And my accent too? As if I wouldn't have enough tolerating with my slight speech defect? Nuh uh I say.

Esuohlim · #12

I'll do this!

Chojin · #13

GZ, I have fraps, which lets me record an active window to video. That'd work.

Rongi · #14

Count me in

GADZOOKS · #15

Sounds good but what about for NON-CHOJIN matches

Is there a freeware equivalent?

noob3 · #16

I passed away at the age of 8.

noob3 · #17

Oh, shit. I'll play, but I don't have a mic. And I've never played Dr. Mario before either!

RaNkeri · #18

Apparently I'm not cool enough for GAZOOKS :/

GADZOOKS · #19

If we can get 7 more people it will work purrfectly. I think we can do it!

I ALREADY TOLD YOU, YOU ARE AN UNDERAGED SCHEDUALING NIGHTMARE. If we desperately need a 16th player I'll think about it.

Emu · #20

Can we also have a tetris tourney

Good News, Bad News

My mystery opponent is semi-confirming his intrest in it but wont be available for a little while. I want to get over my cold and figure out the technical aspects. I didn't expect to get eight people so fast!

I will make a list of opponents by the end of the week. If no one else signs up and Mr. A continues to have too many problems running a netplay game then I will give Noob3 his slot and run with the 8. If we can get 7 more people by the end of the week we will go with 16 and I'll let that cunt Rankeri take Mr. A's spot if problems persist. I think Mr. A will do some funny play by play for those who do not have mics so all will not be lost.

I'll keep you guys posted. Post in here suggestions for video recording or audio situations if you are doing the audio. I can't help too much other then audio aspects. Thank you for your interest, your call is important to me.

and Emu it is up to you if you want to do that. I'm not that big on Russians as I am with the Italians.
