Hotel just added 10-15 more rooms. Get them now. If they are not there...reserve them and email me at apex.series@gmail.com so I can change them manually.

I can clarify this.

First as to why we are doing the Evo style. As a group we all decided this would help to schedule things better for not just us but for everyone. We set it up so that people know ahead of time what time to show up and be able to have a lot of time to be able to hang out and enjoy the event as a whole. You can do a lot of things outside of tournament matches where you can go to the artist alley to find one of a kind trinkets, play casual games ( DDR Machine, old school, etc ) enter various free contests through-out the day and even play friendlies with anyone you want.

Now why do this? It helps move things along quickly but also add to the experience.

Also for the format it is 100% Evo Style. Schedule will be up tonight.


If you guys have questions you can always e-mail me at apex.series@gmail.com


Sorry for not being on this site enough.

So I've never been to a Smash Bros tournament before and just heard about this. Sounds really fun and i'd love to go. Do I have to have gone to these qualifier tournaments before hand though? Or could I just register and participate as is. New to all this. Thanks

Qualifiers get you better seeding or something. You can just register and show up, no problem.

You'll have some very tough competition, though, considering this is a national. Good luck!

Anyone driving down from New York think I could carpool with them? I live in Los Angelos but I'll be flying in from EU (out there for holidays and quite a while visiting my mother) and wanted to see if I could save money by flying into New York instead of back to LA and out to New Jersey.

I just called to the Hotel and they told me I could get the rates of $99/n only for the night of the 16 and the night of 19. I have to pay normal rates of $119/n for the 15, 17 and 18. Are the rooms gone?? That's odd for the rates. They also told me the cutoff is January 4.

Yes Jan 4 is the cut off but if you order and get their normal rates I can change it to the 99/night rate

I hope someone can answer this...

On the Apex website, it says Project M caps at 192, the total entrants available however, is as much as 256. Is this a first come first serve basis for this tournament or has the cap level been raised?

The cap raise of pm to 256 is the last and final raise they can do so now it's essentially first come first serve, everyone has their warning and will be left out if they do not make the cut
