Fear The Green Missle (Super Smash Bros. Melee and Project M MLG Anaheim Sponsorship Tournament)

In the wake of all the growth that Super Smash Bros. Melee has had it has returned to MLG! And MLG Anaheim is going to be a huge national tournament that many smashers are already getting hyped about.

And so with that, let's continue the hype train! On Saturday April 26th I will be hosting another Melee and Project M tournament at Versus.

Now I know that most of you don't even need an excuse to come to tournament but, as added incentive Versus Gaming Center is going to be sponsoring the players that reach top 3 in Super Smash Bros. Melee.

Versus will be opening up at noon that day. Registration will be from 12:30-1:50. Brackets should be ready by 2:00, 2:10 at the latest.

PLEASE bring a Gamecube or Wii if you have one. Every extra setup makes a tournament go that much smoother. For the Melee and P:M players, PLEASE try to bring a CRT television if you have the ability to transport one that isn't ridiculously heavy or cumbersome. It won't matter if we have 30 setups if no one brings TVs (Please don't bring a flat screen).

This is a BYOC (bring your own controller) event. Neither I nor Versus will be responsible for any equipment, so keep an eye on your junk people!

Venue Fee - $10
Tournament Entrance Fee - $10 (Per Game)

**SPONSORSHIP DETAILS**
The top 3 in Melee will receive sponsorships (Airfare, Lodging, Entry Fee) for MLG Anaheim tournament.
Sponsored Smashers have to wear t-shirts provided to them and use the VS tag before their name (EX; VS Sly, VS zerothetheif), making already-sponsored players ineligible

UPDATE

Currently sponsored players are still eligble to win sponsorship and become co-sponsored. For this to happen the players would be required to wear the Versus t-shirt on stream. Versus is ok with their tag being listed second (e.g. CT VS Hungrybox). If the other sponsor isn't cool with that then no harm no foul, sponsorship will go to the next-highest placed player - we understand their position.
**SPONSORSHIP DETAILS**

What's more hype than top 3 for Melee going to MLG for FREE?!

That's almost more incentive than going to an MLG qualifier...

I signed up for Melee singles but couldn't stay because it began so late.
