Default Maybe an online SBBM Tourney in the future?

If I recall correctly, Dolphin, the Gamecube emulator, has a Netplay feature. I can run Melee with 60FPS. Maybe in the future we can have an online Melee tournament?

I doubt it since

1. Not everyone's computer can handle it
2. Not everyone owns the game legally and we don't want a tournament with illegal games.
3. A lot of the people who visit are younger children and we will get bombarded with questions of how to run an emulator.

In response to 3, if you're under 13 you shouldn't be on this site. And if you can't install Dolphin and find a way to rip a Melee disk, you're either stupid or can't use google.

well, I have once tried to get dolphin to work and got a melee iso once but everytime I ran it, it would ask me to create a memory and I'll say yes then Dolphin froze on me and I dunno why.

^ This. Every hour there would be new questions about people having difficulties using display drivers, controllers, and system stuff. Then there would be the people with old processors that are too slow, computers that bluescreen often, and people who don't have a compatible version of Windows. It wouldn't be worth it.

Plus some people (such as myself) use macs, which can cause even more problems with the compatibility of the computers.

Aye, nevermind then. Perhaps I'll ask another forum.
