We start registration at 12. Matches begin (with Melee Doubles) at 1. Then Brawl Doubles, then Melee Singles and Brawl Doubles, subject to change at my whim, or at the lack/surplus of setups.

Um, there's two brawl doubles tourns? Do I have to **** twice or something?

Wouldn't it be easier if you did Melee doubles, then Melee singles, then Brawl doubles, then Brawl singles? That way people going just for Melee can leave early, and people coming just for Brawl can show up later if they need to.

That makes more sense IMO, but is there a particular reason you did it like you did?

well what usually happens at these is when melee starts it doesnt have that many tvs, then gordon shows up late and brings an assload of setups, melee finishes downstairs with like 5 tvs and 2 of those tvs are used for the brawl tourney when that starts, while the other melee tvs are used for friendlies

not to say melee first isnt the best idea, but people usually dont leave when melee is over, otherwise brawl would usually be out 2-3 tvs lol

If we don't do it like that, we have setups sitting around wasted. Once half the people are out of a melee event, we can start Brawl . That's my thinking anyway. It may change.

so if it snows 8 inch is the tourny still on? and if it is still on the weather might make people late so what will happen if you show up late.

Also is brawl singles are doubles first?

yo. if it snows, a lot of people will probably not show up, especially from the city. you should postpone it or something.

Yeah me and the whole other car full of other people going with Doommachine15 aren't going to be able to go, and there's a winter weather advisory tomorrow, 3-6 inches guaranteed... are you definitely going through with this ch33s3? Bc it almost seems like it would make more sense to postpone it, not sure people from the city are gonna be able to make it back home, we're not risking it and I'm only off of exit 68 on the LIE. =/

Point is a lot of people are traveling quite a distance to get there, so it's really not very practical to see "what happens tomorrow." I do believe I'll make it either way though.

What the hell man? Man up people, seriously. Highways are NEVER covered in snow/ice anyway, there's too much traffic, not to mention plows an ****. The only place you'll have to worry about driving in ice is in your hometown really, and nobody says you have to speed, plus everyone should have antilock brakes by now.

I just hope my friend's mom doesn't cancel/pick us up early cuz snow =/

Wow i def plan on driving from jersey and you guys on LI are complaining about some snow, def mad clear rite now. Stop being b*tches lol. Gmoneys not getting to the venue till like 3 and he usually brings at least 2 melee setups so could you hold melee until then? Or is that to late. I mean it'd be appreciated bcuz he usually helps out with setups all the time at these tournies. And I might not be getting there until 1 30 or 2. Melee really doesnt take too long anyway. but hopefully you guys can hold it

Edit-lol good **** joe. But yea really I think if you start melee at 3 it should def be done by 8, and then the rest of the setups could be used for brawl singles which might be going on depending on what time you start them, just my opinion lol but seriously think about holding it :)
