Once again, sorry, sorry, and sorry for another long delay. Unfortunately for me, I am now working two jobs these days and scarcely have anytime to post anymore. With the situation I'm in right now, I have no choice but to leave the tournament in the hands of Po pimpus and Pinerider. This actually may be for the better, because now instead of one lousy host, you guys have two reliable ones. I certainly can assure you that these guys have greater knowledge on tourny hosting than I do, and they are most certainly capable of updating more frequently than myself. I'm still going to attend the tourny, and maybe help a bit to make sure things go well (probably not necessary with these guys in charge), but I no longer can plan this thing through due to said problem.
Now, since I'm here, I'll just answer some of your questions to loosen the load...... First off, the minimum TV/Cube requirements to let the tourny run decently should be about 4 each. So far we got:
TV's:
2=Vegafuse
1=Shade_
1=Jeremy
Possible 1=South_Paw
Possible 2=
Shade's Friends
Guaranteed Total: 4 TVs
Possible: 7 TVs
Cube w/Smash & MemCard:
1=Shade_
1=South_Paw
1=Bloodlink
Possible 2=
Shade's Friends
Possible 1=Scud
Possible 2= Po Pimpus & Pinerider
Guaranteed Total: 3(!) Cubes
Possible: 8 Cubes
I'm pretty sure Po Pimpus and Pinerider could bring their cubes, so it already looks like we're set. The number of controllers you guys bring each is sorta moot, it just matters that you're responsible to have a controller at the time your match begins. This is a common unwritten rule in the smash community, but if you don't have one, then I guess you'll have to find someone that could lend you one at the tourny.
As for 2on2, Shade pretty much got the right idea. 1on1 is definitely going to be the main event and then teams will either be a side event or just casuals/$mm's after the tourny. You don't have to play teams if you don't want to, and the same goes for singles. But if you want to win cash, I recommend that you participate in the actual tournament.
Shade, if you can still get the finals recorded, that'll be sweet. Let's just hope that it will be a worthy battle. South_Paw, PM me your number tonight. Maybe we can get some games in tommorow noon so you won't leave smashless (which I can relate to
).
This may sound bad, but the tournament may get postponed till late January. I hope that still sounds good to you guys. I personally dislike unfulfilling my word, so hopefully the new guys in charge can find us a solid date soon.
Later.
