I, man, am regal; a German am I.
If anyone in the Asheville, North Carolina area is interested in attending a Smash tournament, I have a possible host.

I spoke with Tom, owner of the recently-opened 'Virtual Ambush Gaming Lounge', which runs weekly video game tournaments. Currently, he's running things like Halo2, Gears of War, and Madden, but I mentioned Smash to him and he said that he'd definitely run a tournament as long as there's enough interest in it.

If there's anyone else in the area (their location is on their website) who would be interested, give them a call and let them know! The more interest we can muster, the sooner he'll run the tournament.

I'm counting on you guys. Don't let me down.



EDIT: Tournament confirmed! February 24, check the site for more details. http://www.virtualambush.com/

Anyone who needs directions or a place to crash, send me a message, but I can't hold you all. :p The more people who come for this one, the more likely he is to run more.

I don't have any dates or anything; this place just opened up 2.5 weeks ago. If you're interested, though, you should write Tom an e-mail and let him know; they have a contact on their site.

Well, I'm interested, but the guys here will tell you, I haven't entered a tourney. I intend to, it's just I never seem to be able to make.

If I can, hell, I'd go. My two main issues is a Ride, and my Mother. ~_~ But yeah, I'm interested.

yeah, just go ahead and count zio as not being there. He'll quit before he'll enter a tournament.

Well my sister goes to UNC-A so of course I would go. If I go my whole crew would probably tag along so that's like three more.

I'm gonna go back over to the place this week sometime and show the owner the responses here, see if we can get anything more definite set up. Way more people were interested than I had thought there would be. Awesome response, guys.

Actually, yes!

Tom, the owner, decided he liked the idea, and scheduled the tournament for this Saturday, February 24. I know this is short notice, but I just found out today. MLG ruleset; tournament starts at 3, register in person, by e-mail, or phone by 1. And if anybody needs a place to crash, I've got a couch; just send me a PM.

It's the first thing on the page.
