Since EGL is up and coming, they are capping the entrants at 132 to make sure they can support the smashers to their best ability. Guaranteed registration can be paid online via www.theegleague.com.
Registering this way will ensure that your entry is guaranteed. Otherwise, it's first come first serve up to 132.

Setups:
Please help out and bring your own setups to make sure we can get sufficient amounts of pools so everything can run well. If you can't bring a Tv, at least bring your cube because EGL is already providing some TV's.
I will be there to make sure things run correctly. If ANYBODY has a laptop they want to bring that we can run Tio on, that would be nice. They have a computer of their own, but i'd like to be able to have something independent for smash.
Thanks everyone and i hope you give EGL a shot. Cya there
