One of my local game shops is hosting a singles Project M tourney on September 27th! I am trying to get as many competitors as possible to make things more interesting. I've been to one other (brawl) tourney of theirs before and it was very well organized. At this point it's just a matter of more people! Here's the link to thier Facebook. And feel free to drop a "Like" on their page :) Hope to see you there!



THERE IS AN ENTRY FEE OF $5 CASH

I can give you a better estimate closer to the tourney date. Right now I couldn't even guess as this is their first PM tourney. They usually stick to brawl. The last brawl tourney I went to had about 20 people. But like I said, that was for brawl, and the tourney was not posted on smashboards. Im hoping since it is PM and it has been posted on here, there will be a larger bracket this time around.

Also.... (sorry if this is getting annoying) will you guys need any set ups? I can bring 1 full set up (1 CRT TV, a Wii, and a copy of PM) if needed

If you would like to bring a CRT TV just in case, that would be nice. Last time they had a tourney the tv was not a CRT TV. I would imagine they would have the copy of PM/Brawl under control. Thanks!
And one more thing..... typical PM ruleset I assume?
They may have their own specific ruleset. If they do, it wouldnt stray too far from a typical PM ruleset. They might not do any sort of stage banning and whatnot (last tourney they had they just alternated players and let them choose the stage back and forth), but as far as items off, and stuff like that, you can count on it.

You can also try posting on thier facebook page for more specific answers. Im not an employee or anything so Im not positive on what they are planning for sure. Im just getting the word out. (Not trying to be snarky at all, I just realize Im giving pretty broad answers to some of your questions) And if you do decide to ask questions on their facebook, please feel free to post the answers they give you in this thread for future reference! :) If you have any other questions though please feel free to ask on here, I'll still try and answer them as best I can.

CRTS are a MUST. Most people here on Smashboards will not play on anything else. I definitely will be bringing a CRT. The game lags on HD's

I'll also bring a CRT and P:M setup.
Is there going to be Brawl as well, or just P:M?

Also, glad we can Sing for free. Lol. That cracked me up when a friend first showed me the ad on his fb. xD
Oh ya but would love to get in contact with more Smashers around Ottawa and Spring Valley. I could really use the practice for Melee especially. s:

Damn, I better make sure I get there early if I'm free. Sadly I have to count on having a ride out of Spring Valley. A Peoria Crew sounds pretty sweet. I'd love to face a crew/join one someday. I had one at my old town. How many of you are in the Crew?

Oooh talk about the IL Valley scene!
Anyone who's interested might find it cool to know that we host weekly Smash Bros (Melee, Brawl, and P:M) at Mind Games Hobby in La Salle every Sunday. We start between 3:30 and 4:00 and go until close at about 9:00. It'd be awesome to have some new people!
Address is 511 1st St. La Salle
