    UFGT10:X - May 23-25, 2014 - Chicago, IL

    Rick, who is the third member of the triumvirate who ran UFGTX, will be taking over the job of head TO for the big Chicago tournament next year, to be called Combo Breaker. I will be back as well to handle brackets & bracket-related products. EDIT: Also if you're waiting for the results to be...

    It is top 2. Same format as EVO. *dodges tomatoes*

    I saw that (though I believe you actually told Keits and not me). You help is incredibly appreciated. We actually don't make ours public until after registration closes. However, if you know about how we run our tournaments (we use a similar style to Evo) and take a peek at the initial...

    So the number of Project M entrants is rapidly approaching the number we predicted and it may surpass it very soon. As a result, we may need to add more pools for Project M, which means that we need more setups, especially CRTs. So we're asking for help from the PM community. If you bring a Wii...

    You can always bring your own N64s for the BYOC area. And you can even run a side tournament for it on Sunday if you want. (You just need to clear it with us first.)

    The first version of the schedule has been posted. It may change in the next couple weeks, but like I said a few posts earlier, I do not expect Smash to be moved any earlier on Friday. Tentative pool assignments will be available on May 20th, and will be made final on May 21st. Any questions...

    Current schedule has 5pm as the earliest pool time on Friday for a Smash Bros. game. I do not expect that to change.

    I presume the number of points received for placing at one event will be some function of how high you place and the number of players in the tournament. And that answer is all I'm allowed to say.

    UFGT was a Road to Evo event last year. This year, however, there's no official Road to Evo at all. Instead, this is how Evo seeding points will work (from the Evo website): So technically, UFGT10 is only an Evo qualifier in the sense that any tournament can be an Evo qualifier. We definitely...

    The turnout is the main factor that drives the schedule decision making. We can't set up a schedule until we know how many people are attending for which games. And there are plenty of other factors when it comes to making a schedule (like how communities for every game want stream time), but...

    We don't give those out until the week before the tournament. Sorry. Absolutely you can still enter. All you need to do is simply tell the person running your pool that you want all your matches played off-stream, and they should oblige you. That having been said, if you end up making Top 32...

    All people who pay to play casuals get a badge. All tournament entrants also get a badge. Badges should be displayed at all times while in the venue. If event staff see a person playing casuals without a badge displayed, they will be asked to stop playing and present their badge, or they must go...
