We just need someone, probably who goes to sfsu to get proper permission to use a room. Once we get that the rest is relatively easy. I can help coordinate and stuff, but we need someone like that first.
Idk if it requires all that. I remember once I was on my way to a tourney there and I asked some security guard to point me in the direction of the HUM building. He asked what was going on over there and I said a video game tournament - and he just goes "oh neat - I used to go to those too" or something like that.
I mean obviously not every SFSU security guard is a gamer but that's not the point--- the point is, as long as we clean up after ourselves I don't really think anyone's gonna care about a bunch of ppl hanging out in a classroom on a Saturday. Plus I don't think that building is really within earshot of any of the dorms so we won't have to worry about waking up sleepy students.
If it makes everyone feel better I guess someone (me? I don't go to that school lol) could ask permission and try to get all official and everything. The way I see it, though, it's highly unnecessary.
It's not like we're in there playing poker, with hundreds of dollars going back and forth-- I don't think someone's going to associate the player's pot with some shady gambling ring, haha. I don't really know what the rules are at SFSU but dude. There are soooo many things going on at college campuses worse than some nerds playing some video games.
AND THE NERD FACTOR HELPS! Srsly. And idgaf wat u say or how many friends u got or how cool you are, if you're going to game tournaments you're a nerd. BUT IT'S OK - Generally, school staff like nerds anyway. Understand what I'm saying? Like we're not seen the same way as someone who wants to have an open mic session or a breakdance battle or an orgy with a bunch of sorority girls.
Prolly just like... idk... if you're not bringing a cube or a tv, bring a bigass garbage bag. As long as we clean up after ourselves, I bet even without prior permission they'd let us continue the tourney even if like some employee just stumbles upon it mid-bracket.
