Hey what's up everyone. Soon after being able to successfully raise enough money for Shiz, another, bigger fund has been created by East Point Pictures, creators of "The Smash Brothers Series".

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ae_OE2hjKv0

This fund is going towards getting both Captain Jack + Mach Dash to APEX 2012. Both are players from the Japanese scene, whom are extremely interested in attending, but need a little help on our side.

We were able to raise roughly $300 for Shiz only in a matter of days. That is something incredible. With that kind of drive coming from the community, there's no doubt in my mind that we can raise a greater amount in time for Apex. I know most of you would love for the Melee legend from Japan attend.

The goal amount for Captain jack is roughly $1000. It may seem like a lot, but the burden need not fall on one donor. If 100 of us donate $10, we have reached the amount right there. If we're able to reach this goal, Captain Jack will use it to pay off is flight and in exchange purchase Mach Dash's flight to apex.

Donations

To Donate, log into your paypal account and click on the "send money" button. Enter the following email as the recipient:

nunu0215@yahoo.com and I will forward it to them (your donation will be confirmed immediately)

or directly to them thesmashbrosmovie@gmail.com (they will send me updates.)

Make sure to put "FOR CAPTAIN JACK" and your smashboards username as the personal message before sending.
Donator Amount
Featheringill $25.00
Thomann $25.00
PC Chris $50.00
aisight $333.33
Mr F $10.00
King Funk $5.00
Clement $200.00
a nub $20.00
Ayite $20.00
Eclipsing Binary $40.00
Powell $15.00
Krause $25.00
Hydro_Smasher $10.00

TOTAL: $1008.33

Post if you are one of the donors so I can confirm your smashboards name on this list. They aren't giving me the full names when updating.

Captain Jacks goal was reached. Unfortunately, Alex Strife Mach Dash and Kou have all lost contact with Mach Dash. This means that all proceeds still went towards Jack's ticket.

Chain-ace/samox for president. I didn't get a chance to donate to Shiz (it was already done by the time I got home), so I'll throw money this way instead.

I humbly request you add Mach Dash in the title as well; he has a lot of fans too.

I'm sure this will go a long way in growing the Japanese community. Their community seems to be reviving again as of late, and a trip to APEX for 2 of their best would mean a lot.

If I give my donation and we don't make enough for their flight, do I get my money back?

That's how it's always worked, as far as I know.

Out of curiosity, how much has been raised so far?

I will need a confirmation on my question.

Also the vid doesn't say anything about MachDash. Are we sure that he'll come if the 1000$ are met. Are we sure 1000$ is even the correct amount, the vid doesn't specify on that at all.

You would be refunded.

Mach Dash is coming with CJ since I speak to him personally he told me this.

If C. Jack gets to apex, I'm predicting his donkey kong to take first place. You heard it first here folks.

Also strong bad will get second and bum rounds it out third with a surprise showing.

As impressive as that would be, I'm personally a fan of C. Jack's legendary sheik. NTSC version of his epic sheik battles with amsah, will be fun to see.

wow clement, mad props.

the people who are donating ****ing $100+ are inspirations!
paying money for something you don't even personally get, at best you getting to see a player you enjoy.

of course it's awesome from everyone else as well.

I am going to see if CJ and MD can set up a friendly station where people can take turns playing them...obviously a lot will want to but I will try to keep it organized enough to have ppl have fun.
