Hi everyone! Hope you all had a happy thanksgiving.
There is ONE MONTH left in Main Registration for Sunset Melee! We're on pace to clear 200 entrants for Melee and this is likely the last tournament I'm going to see, so don't miss out on this!!!

Here's the Top 8 from the last SSS on Saturday. This event was very emotional but very fun all the same, getting to see so many old and new faces together there was really awesome.
Major thanks to everyone who has supported SSS for the last 12 years. It's had a great run. :)
November 26, 2025 at 6:04 PM
We closed SSS out in a big way last night after 12 years of running! Long live New Hampshire Melee!!!

Hello and Happy Halloween everyone!
TODAY IS THE FINAL DAY OF EARLY BIRD REGISTRATION FOR SUNSET MELEE IN JANUARY AT THE WESTIN HOTEL IN WALTHAM FOR MELEE AND RIVALS 2! If you're planning on attending, get registered today and save yourself some money before the deadline passes!

Hi everyone! I am happy to announce Sunset Melee, a New England Melee and Rivals 2 Regional on January 10-11, 2026, at the Westin Hotel in Waltham!
This is the LAST TOURNAMENT that both @motobug.net and I are going to run, and we hope to see many of you there!!!

Went to Bit Bar in Salem tonight for their melee monthly. It's a great venue! I'm glad I got to see it with lots of friendly faces around.
I'd say this was a pretty cool event, and I definitely recommend everyone who is in the area check this place out sometime!

I'd say the NESL Finals event this weekend was a great success! I am happy I got the opportunity to work with a fine team. :)
Congrats to Kalvar for winning and to everyone behind NEM Star League for making all of this possible!

Today, I spent my Sunday at my first Strange Brew Melee monthly and got to spend some time with some good people.
I was able to get a decent pic with a few of the folks who ran the tournament today as well. Long live NH melee!

Happy 4th, everyone. :)

Well folks, the cat's out of the bag - I'm teaming up with the folks behind New Game Plus and Balance Patch to run my birthday bash at Allston Allstars V in Boston on August 2nd!
We're expecting that melee singles will cap out at this event, so register ASAP if you want to go!

The NH crew has made it home. I'd say we had a good group for tonight's tournament! It was a pleasure to visit GGRI alongside a few friends, Rhode Island Melee has a fine scene.
July 2, 2025 at 6:10 AM
Today is my first visit to Rhode Island for a melee tournament in more than 10 years, and my first time at GGRI.
This is a cool tournament! They capped out the bracket at 32 entrants as well. Great stuff!
July 2, 2025 at 3:02 AM
Almost forgot to put this out, but I was lucky enough to get a pic with a few of the folks that run Prodigy!
Was nice seeing everyone there! @litorally.bsky.social, @jacqinora.bsky.social, @trance404.bsky.social and @creestab.bsky.social (who ran Rivals but isn't in this pic) all did great work!
July 1, 2025 at 1:41 AM
Had a great time at MATE tonight! This was my first one, and it didn't disappoint. Got to see a lot of friendly faces and got a great pic with the folks that made it happen.
Next for me is Prodigy Classic on Saturday. I'm looking forward to making my first trip there as well!

I'd say I'm having a decent Father's Day weekend so far! Helped run Big Pho 2 yesterday, got perfect weather at Pawtuckaway with lots of family around today. Life is good.
June 15, 2025 at 6:00 PM
I'd say Giga HoG went well this weekend! I headed down there with a full SUV of gamers and got to see folks from many places come together for it, which is always a pleasure.
I'm glad to have gotten a pic with Arty and Tuba as well. They did great work this weekend. :)

Last thing on CB:
Sunday finals were a fine show. I'm very happy I got to see it live. I'd say whether or not you're into fighting games, this is the kind of event that's good to go to at least once, like EVO. I owe @margotphoenix.bsky.social my thanks for helping me get out there. This was great.
May 28, 2025 at 9:48 PM
Looking at this, I'd say I've made some good memories at the big FGC tournaments over the years.
I'm happy to have had the opportunity to go to a decent few of these. Will need to get a pic with all the event badges I've collected when it's all over next year.
May 28, 2025 at 8:09 PM
On my way home from CB.
It's a bit flat out here, but I'd say it's been a worthwhile trip. This was my first time out to the Chicagoland area for an event, and it didn't disappoint.
I'm glad to have seen some friends and crossed some bucket list items off this past weekend. :)
May 27, 2025 at 2:48 AM
Genuinely curious how (or why people choose to) play in outfits like these...
May 25, 2025 at 2:19 AM
Now, THIS is a venue. Can't even get a good picture of all of it for how large it is, hah. #CB2025
May 23, 2025 at 4:11 PM
I don't love flying exactly, but the view up here... well, it isn't half bad.
May 22, 2025 at 11:56 PM
I'm spending my Mother's Day with a healthy amount of my extended family today and perfect weather to boot. Couldn't have asked for better.
Happy Mother's Day, everyone. :)
May 11, 2025 at 7:53 PM
I am happy to have made the trip with these fellas as well. Looking forward to Mass Madness 50 next, can't wait. :)

Made it back to home after Final Warning! FW was a fine end to the PR season.
I'm glad to finally have made it out to a Maine tournament, Maine Melee has a great scene.
Got a nice pic with Boxman, too. He's a local legend with 20 years in smash, major respect to him. :)
