You should link me to some, I'm interested in investing in some for the MWC, but don't know which ones to buy :(

I actually play directly off my computer, which my Wii is hooked up to through something called a KWORLD DVD Maker or something. But RCA splitters should work too.

Yeah, devices that hook directly from the TV to the computer are the best for recording. Things like this (not sure on the credentials of that specific one, though) are the easiest way to record IMO. I wonder if using a cable splitter would allow you to hook up to multiple TVs at once to record them all.

I'm thinking more along the lines of DVD recorders. I think it'd be awesome for me and the midwest if every Midwest Circuit event had 2 or 3 of those things recording all the really good matches.

hehe, contrary to what you guys might think, VHS tapes are fine enough. there is no loss of quality and i'm able to go to a lab and stream them into digital files really quickly. however, my now ex-girlfiriend re arranged my tapes and log sheets when she was helping me clean up and i subsequently lost a log sheet and tape. so maybe having things in physical form isn't always best.

but yeah, i'm busy, sorry. i know i said vids this weekend, but i now realize that's unrealistic. itll be a few days. this is the end of my summer school class and i got a lot of work right now. sry.

side tournament will announced soon, along with a new flier!

S'ok Rofa, take your time. You do enough as it is :D

Also, you should run with the strikeout system for this tourney. As I might be going. I might literally drive straight to A2 after I finish failing the MCAT on Friday. We'll see.

Perhaps I should have said that by superior, I meant it'd be a lot more convenient to get the stuff onto a computer for encoding an uploading. Either way, take your time.

Okay, I should be going to this and will probably need a doubles partner. Kel is prolly gonna be working, so I am partnerless and want to win doubles AND singles.

A GOOD doubles partner..... Anther? Joel? :D

I'll see if I can make it to this one for singles, at the very least.
