Event 52 - PREREGISTRATION REQUIRED - $500 OOS Bonus- Kansas City, KS - Oct 18th-19th

[khepri]

I am extremely looking forward to playing a ****load of friendlies and MMs and meeting all the midwesterners.

You get to see me again.

 

[Perfect Duck]

I can't sleep.

 

[DYC]

Yeah, I know that Darkrain is real busy with other stuff (and by now, probably setting up the tournament/sleeping), but I at least would really appreciate if a final update could be made on who's registered. I'm pretty sure I have, but I am not 100% certain and I don't want to drive nine hours to get rejected at the door/make more work by registering twice.

Regardless, I hope to see everyone on Saturday! I am really looking forward to this.

All registration was for was to give us a good general idea of how many people were coming, and thus how to structure the tournament. Show up and you can enter the tournament.

 

[papermarkis]

Yeah, and I'm pretty sure if you sent your information in, you're registered anyways.

From the very start, I had the suspicion that preregistration wasn't -really- required. Really, though, being able to see the list made it inspiring for others to join the list. It was a brilliant idea.

Big Burn -- $1
Mars -- $5
Spaceballs -- $5
hugQ -- $5
Quaz -- $5
Secks -- 1$
Kos-Mos -- $1 MM

Anybody else interested?

I am. Let's see. How about $5.

 

[papermarkis]

Is registration going to start earlier than 9:30? 30 minutes doesn't sound like enough time to register almost 150 people, get the pools made for both singles AND doubles, and announce all the pools and where they will be playing.

 

[FluxWolf]

I am pretty sure Darkrain and his helpers know what they are doing...

I can't wait for this thing to get started.....

 

[~GregDang!~]

Des Moines is only coming with 3 peeps. Very upsetting to me, but we are about to leave. We'll have a setup if you guys need it.

 

[Perfect Duck]

I made a new tentative schedule that is a little more detailed. This is assuming we have 32 setups, each round of pools consists of 8 pools with 4 TVs per pool.


Saturday, October 18th
9:30 AM Registration Begins
10:00 AM Registration Ends, Missing Teams/Singles removed from pools
10:30 PM Teams Pools, Round 1..... 64 to 32, Top 4 Advance
12:30 PM Teams Pools, Round 2 .....32 to 16, Top 2 Advance
3:00 PM Singles Pools, Round 1, Set 1..... 150 to 64, Top 4 Advance
5:30 PM Singles Pools, Round 1, Set 2 .....150 to 64, Top 4 Advance
8:30 PM Singles Pools, Round 2 .....64 to 32, Top 4 Advance
10:00 PM Top 32 Singles Bracket and Top 16 Teams Announced
11:00 PM Tournament done for the night

Sunday, October 19th
10:00 AM Breakfast Served at the venue
11:00 AM Teams Final Bracket, Top 16
2:00 PM Singles Bracket, Top 32
6:00 PM Singles Finals
7:00 PM Crew, low tier, smash 64, friendlies
11:00 PM We get kicked out


This is all estimated but it will be pretty close to our actual schedule.

Just quoting this post so more people know about it.

 

[Phatgamer1]

No sleep for me tonight.

 

[linkw00t]

No sleep for me tonight.

OMG phat, wanna go get breakfast?

 

[Zantetsu]

I'm bringing 2 recording set ups.

1 9'' tv w/ recorder and some weird old vcr I found in my room. I also have 6 sony tapes and a gamebridge here in my hotel room.

My gamebridge quality, if fed straight through, turns out like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YcoDHqaNl1g&fmt=18

With my old vcr, the quality kinda turns out like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eS6HAMiq0S0

So if we have anyone else with a vcr, you're going to really want to use that for important matches. But just for friendlies, I've got a nice ****ty vcr

EDIT: Turns out my 9'' tv w/ vcr doesn't record under the AUX setting. I guess it's to prevent people from copying tapes from hooked up vcr's or something. So make that 1 setup. I'll just set the vcr to my small tv until it's really needed for something.

Also, the quality from the VCR may not be the VCR's fault. I remember buying some really really bad tapes. Now I got 6, 6 hour sony tapes

 

[8BitRevolver]
