You should probably make Smash 4 $10 as well, also is doubles for smash 4 happening? Because it is not listed in events, but is mentioned later.

Well, we actually have A LOT of smash 4 players. In fact, many old-school brawl players are into it. And guess where all of those old-school players live? Louisville.

Then you have a ton of Lexington players, that all will travel to any Smash 4 tournament. At that point, you have quite a bit of entrants, and Cincinnati may come. Mix that with $10 entry, and you may get quite a bit more, especially with this being a regional sized event.

I know you are looking out for the tournament, but since we ARE running Smash 4, we need to advertise/support it 100%. If KY grows in one scene, it grows in all of them.

Of course, I wasn't taking shots at it I just wasn't aware of the scene it produced. It doesn't matter to me though since it's not my tournament.

I suggest that every event should be $5 with melee singles being the only exception and possibly project M. I personally do not think smash 4 will grab the attention of new players or melee players if it is $10. In order to maximize entrants $5 seems best for every event, ESPECIALLY smash 4, since the melee scene is already pretty established I can see it being a $10 event but for a new scene with no real estimated number of entrants, $5 seems best. This may not be the case at all and I may be crazy but I cant see smash 4's first wii U tourney in the area drawing as many entrants with the higher fee.

I'm not the only one! haha. No one from Lex will come just for $10 Wii U Sm4sh singles.

Looking for melee dubs partner. I play fox and falcon in doubles and maybe few games with the Ice Climbers if anyone is feeling picante enough to keep up with that nonsense in doubles.

I'm totally interested in entering for smash 4 singles and maybe PM if I have a spare 10 bucks. I really hope to see KY's scene grow with the new game and all.

Hello. I'm sorry if this is posted somewhere but I couldn't find it. Is there an age limit? My son is 13 and would like to enter. Also we live in Evansville, IN and I was wondering if we could pre-register? I don't want to drive 2 hours and find out there were too many participants for him to participate. Thank you.

There is no age limit, and no need to pre-register as long as you arrive at the specified time to register, remember ky is EST tho if you're coming from evansville.

Edit: somehow overlooked the fact that you said it was for your son, my bad lol.
