We host a bunch of local tourneys in this area that draws in pretty good talent. The average attendance is about 30 participants and we are hoping to increase this by inviting anyone interested in joining our Biweeklies.

Arena 51 is an awesome LAN center offering tons of PC and console gaming. So if you guys need a break Brawling, you can play a few of our award winning FPS, RTS or RPGs ranging from Counter Strike to World of Warcraft.

Therefore, it's definitely worth the trip if you guys attend one of our Biweeklies. Our tourneys have even attracted talents like PC Chris, Chu Dat, UmbreonMow and quite a few of DA. In addition to any prize money that you accumulate, you will also have a great time and likely to make friends with the locals who are all extremely friendly and fun to be around.

I demand to be included as a "talent attracted by previous tournaments".

JK, put plank/G-reg in there first. I'm in GA and KS for the summer, so I can't make it : /, but I'll try to drop by sometime next semester! Rochester tourneys own.
