Last minute update: If you can't bring a full-setup, but you can bring a TV or game + console, you will be waived the $3 fee. Sorry, still gotta pay the full $3. =/
NOTE: We are looking for people to help us run brackets as well as to take in entry fees. If you decide to do either/both, you will receive "staff" status and you'll enter the event free of charge. However, if you are running brackets, you will be not be allowed to compete in any of the games. If you are simply bringin...g in a setup (TV + game + console) and you aren't competing, you'll enter the event free of charge as well.
To receive staff status, you must not only agree to not participate in any of the tournaments, but you must also either:
- Agree to strictly run brackets
- Register players and take in entry fees
- Bring in a full setup (TV + console + game)
At the moment, we probably have someone running the Brawl and Melee bracket, so there's about 3 more slots open for bracket runners and 5 slots for people to register players. Send me a private message if you are down to do any of these things.
