I'm not going to lie, Sveet pulled one hell of a jerk move doing his thing on the same day and pulling people from this. I can't speak for everyone here, but as far as myself, there was only like a 5 or 10% chance of me coming due to the fact that i wouldn't have stayed for brawl at all.
Norm , your intentions are good, especially since you are trying to open people up to a game, or games that they might never have tried before. Melee players just hate to be around Brawl for the most part though, which is prob why melee can't get attendence for local tourneys.
