Please do bring a setup. Can't wait to play you guys!


Well I sound like a broken record... but just wanted to emphasize this again...

EVERY ADDITIONAL SETUP WILL MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE.

I wrote out some tentative pools based on the attendance list and realized this bad boy is gonna be INSANE! Each pool will probably have at least 5-6 people in it, which means each one has to go through a minimum of 10 sets. Every extra setup is crucial in cutting down waiting time. Think of it this way: 10 sets x avg of 10 mins per set = 100 mins of waiting time. An extra TV cuts that in half, saving us 50 minutes per pool. So bring an additional setup and you can save us almost an hour of garbage time!

Good question.

If we finish pools by the scheduled time, everyone will make it out of pools. 3 hours is plenty for us to run up to a 48-man bracket.

If pools go over time, then we'll have to cut down to a 32-man bracket (top 4 make it out of each pool) to ensure that we can leave by 10pm. You guys control your own fate!


Here's the schedule for anyone too lazy to look at the first post:

1:00pm - Friendlies, Melee Teams Registration
 2:00pm - Melee Teams Bracket
4:00pm - Crews, Melee Singles Registration
 5:00pm - Melee Singles Pools, Smash 64 Singles Registration
 7:00pm - Melee Singles Bracket, Smash 64 Singles Bracket
 10:00pm - Venue Closes

64 won't have the turn out Melee will. It shouldn't be an issue if they are at the same time. If it is chances are people are being stupid and goofing off when they shouldn't be.

Yeah, running 64 at the same time as Melee bracket won't have a great effect. Pools are the only fragile part of the tourney, because there are so many sets that need to be played out, and if even one or two are missing then we can't move forward to create the bracket.

Melee people are usually really good about getting their pools done. It's brawl that people go to Taco Bell after playing two matches. Unless Lain comes, hahaha.
