2nd? then what's the first?
I did miss TGMTSBCO. I'm embarrassed to admit that I somehow hadn't even heard of that tourney until now. I was forced to Google the acronym in order to find the results thread and figure out what it stood for, lol. Looks like it was a huge tourney, good stuff guys.TGMTSBCO was indeed 100+ good catch! Juggleguy's list was wrong he should update that; he didnt include TGMTSBCO. He had UCLA V as the 4th 100+ he listed. The new list would be:
2004: 2 (TG6, Game Over)
2005: 6 (FC3, Getting Schooled 2, MLG DC, MLG SF, BOMB 4, MOAST 3)
2006: 10 (MLG New York Opener, MLG Dallas, MLG Anaheim, MLG Chicago, MLG Orlando, MLG New York Playoffs, FC6, OC2, SMYM 6, Gauntlet)
2007: 12 (OC3, FC-Diamond, Cataclysm, EVO South, EVO West, EVO World, Smash Royale III, Innsomnia, Pound 2, SCC, VLS, UCLA IV)
2008: 5 (Pound 3, UCLA V, TGMTSBCO, ESA 2, Event 52)
2009: 9 (SMYM 9, Revival of Melee, Mango Juice, ESA 3, Genesis, SMYM 10, TSL 4, Pat's House, RoM 2)
2010: 6 (Pound 4, SMYM 11, APEX 2010, SNY 1, RoM 3, DGDTJ)
2011: 8
Add any more if you can remember it; I'm sure Juggleguy missed a few more. I'd also be interested in ordering each of these by attendants...
I think it's because most of pre-2007 stuff on the boards is archived?I can't seem to find the official results pages for those tournaments though.
The JackGarden Tournament should be on that list. I'm not sure what year it was from though.Another good catch! RoS4 had 132 entrants
According to this (not sure how accurate) RoS3 only had 90 entrants though. It also states that RoS3 was the biggest Euro tournament to date, so I doubt RoS1 or 2 managed to crack 100. I can't seem to find the official results pages for those tournaments though. If anyone knows more (Amsah, Nihonjin, Aldwyn namesearch plz) that'd be great.
