Location:
335 Banks Rd, Kelowna, BC

There is a google link on this page http://xzoneelounge.ca/about/
Just stay on Harvey, which is the main road that goes all the way through the Okanagan known as Highway 97, then turn AWAY from Wall Mart once you reach Banks Road and it’s in the lot on the left.

From Vernon/Lakeview
Follow Highway 97 (which is the only road that comes from Vernon) and eventually you’ll cross Highway 33 and Highway 97 we change into Harvey. (It’s the same road) Keep going down Harvey, turn left on Banks Road (there’s a Wall Mart on the right, when you see it, the next street is Banks, where you turn) Xzone will be in the lot on the left once you’re on Banks. Second entrance from the far right of that building. (you’ll see the sign)

From Peachland/Westbank
Go across the bridge and stay on that road. That road is Harvey and eventually you’ll pass Orchard Park Mall. Turn right on Banks Road which is slightly past the mall and on your left will be a parking lot. The second entrance from the far right is Xzone (you’ll see the sign)

From Greyhound Station
The station is on Leckie. Walk to the end of the street and turn left at the lights which would be on Harvey(Highway 97). Walk to the next set of lights which would be Banks Road and turn right to cross the Highway. Xzone will be in the lot across the street and is the second last entrance in the lot on the right. (you'll see the sign)

Xzone does have a hotel across the street and they have housed 15 CS teams before so it shouldn't be a problem. But that shouldn't be needed.

Take a Greyhound, they usually have a few leave from 8am-9am because that's when most people need them and it's 4/5 hours to Kelowna from Vancouver so probably similar for Coquitlam. Or you can take the 6am bus if you want to make melee with some friendly time before hand. Early morning though. The Greyhound station is actually only about 3 blocks from Xzone too lol.

From the Greyhound, follow Leckie (the road the station is on) to Harvey (the main road). Turn left, the next street is Banks, Zzone is on the other side of the street on that block. Convient I must say. Never thought of that hm... Probably a 5 minute walk at MOST.

But since I know you, you could just come up the night before and I could find someone to house you if not myself. lol Just take the bus there and back. No big deal. Book the bus tickets ahead of time though. You can get a round trip for 60$ if you book it 2 weeks in advance. (I learned the hard way and waited to the last second, over 200$ for 2 people round trip, ew lol) Also, if you're a student you get a discount too.


Good to hear Trozz, I look forward to playing you next weekend too :p

Well I'm interested! Hopefully a good amount of people show up! :)

Also may I suggest for the title you put Kelowna BC, Canada so more people will understand where the tournament is and if it's within their hometown then more people will come as well.

No banning Snake, I might Random to him ;)
And I'm pretty sure there's gonna be a huge turn out. I was hosting small things at my house but I had too many people show up to fit in my basement and was just gonna see about a bigger room with these guys. Then they told me that they've been meaning to have a smash tourney because they've had about 40 email requests for one but didn't know how to run it. That's where I came in and helped them out. About 20 requests from people to me too lol

And I changed the title, good idea Eric.

Edit: added the FFA event >;^]

Not sure if it has Pizza, I'll ask. There's a lot of places to eat around there though (Subway, Subcity Donair, Catctus Club if you want lol)

And the only reason I had no 64 tourney was cause I had no 64s. If I can get 2 (you 2) then I'll for sure set that up. Shouldn't be too hard, maybe FFA items very high in that so I stand a chance too. ;]

lol it's alright that that Jack loves 64. 64 needs more <3 and I would've had it in the first place had I access to 64 in the first place. But yeah seriously Jack, 64 is old, out with the old, in with the new ;) jk omg haha Smash rules, ALL of them :D

Tim is Dalty, and I'll do my best. It's larger than any tourney I've hosted and it's with a gaming center which is good and bad but I think more good because these guys know their stuff or know how stuff works so it's easy for them to understand how smash works tourney wise.

save the enviroment, carpool with a limosine. (spelt wrong I think)

I can make this if anyone decent is invited : ).

Salmon Arm isn't too far a drive.
Anyone decent refering to you? Than of course. Anyone decent refering to Blunted_Object? Than of course. Either way, so far it's looking like it'll be too much too good.

Hope you come to this, it's the 1st big one in the valley really. Def want you to be there.

Edit:
- Updated the FOOD part. Yes pizza, there you go I guess.
- ssb64 tourneys are now a main event.

welly well well

Another interesting find. One of my bands went ahead and booked a gig on AUGUST 16th before I could say anything. Luckily it's a PluNPlay so I don't have to bring anything and it's from 7:45 to 9 pm so at most I'll just miss low tier/ffa/crew or something. Doubt I'll miss more than 1 event though. And after the show, everyone can head back towards the bridge on Harvey and turn left on the final turn before the bridge and they can see me play on the outdoor stage there ;)

Hey, Dynamism, can we do anything about the Melee counterpick list? I think there are a few there that shouldn't be there, like Big Blue, Mushroom Kingdom I, and Yoshi's Island 64, to name a few of the stages that should be banned.

You might as well say Starcraft is dead. But don't ever say that. xD
I'd like to get back in to Melee, back when Falcon was viable (although half the roster isn't).

Since when is Falcon not viable in Brawl? It's so on.

I'm gonna get back into melee for these tourneys this summer. Haven't played in ages. But I'm not gonna main Random again cause there's too much to relearn and keep up with. SO I'm actually going to MAIN someone :psycho: OMG!!!

And SC was an amazing game, I wanna get it again! That was the only game other than smash that I've ever been good at lol.

I wish Random had a Random select option so it didn't Random to the same character 4 times in a row and I could chose what characters I don't want at the time.
