If there's no entry fee, what will the "special prizes" be? You probably want to touch on that topic greatly, as it will more than likely impact whether a lot of people will show interest.

Done and done, thanks for catching that

More details than that would probably nice lol. Like who gets gift cards (top 3, top 5 etc), how much are they worth, what are they for, etc.

Still working that out, I'll have it updated sometime next week.
I'll probably have $150 between the 6 events though (doubles and singles), I'll divy it out once I know more.

Hi, this looked like a blast as long as I can get transportation (somebody already offered transportation, but hopefully they can pull through). One question: Would it be possible to do both the Smash tournament(s) and Starcraft II? I wouldn't expect to get very far in the Starcraft 2 one, since I haven't played very much recently, but I still thought it would be fun. However, what kind of overlap or accommodation would there be for those if I had did both and there were conflicting times?

Thanks.

I can only come for singles. Can I show up at 2:00 and still get into singles? It says 11:30 for registration, so I didn't know.
