EVO 2013 is this weekend, July 12th to the 14th (Fri-Sun). For those of you going to the event, everybody at home wishes you the best of luck and to have a good time. Remember to stay clean at all times to avoid catching a cold but most importantly: BE ON TIME FOR POOLS. They will DQ you regardless of who you are if you’re late.
Also make sure to bring setups and your own controller! The tournament won’t progress very well if they’re short on setups. But if you can’t bring a TV, bring your Gamecube/Wii and a copy of Melee w/ memory card anyway, they will NEED it. You never know who will flake in regards to setups.
Gambling is banned at the venue and by extension that includes money matches. Keep them low key or in hotel rooms, otherwise if any of the EVO staff catches you they WILL kick you out.
Don't mess up this opportunity by being stupid! Be on your best behavior, you're representing MORE than yourself at this tournament; you're representing the community. Respect the other players and communities there. Use deodorant and stay hygienic, while the rooms will smell regardless it helps to do your part.
Basically: use common sense!
First time going to EVO? Want to keep track of your matches/pools? Download and install the EVO Mobile Guidebook App to your Android or Phone: http://guidebook.com/g/evolution/
If you can’t use the guidebook, be sure to find your pool here and write a reminder for yourself what time it is: http://evo2013.s3.amazonaws.com/brackets/index.html And for those at home you can use that link to follow along on what pools are happening when.
Speaking of those at home, the stream schedule for the main EVO streams are here:http://shoryuken.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/evo-stream-schedule.png
And here are the individual links to each stream:
http://twitch.tv/srkevo1
http://twitch.tv/srkevo2
http://twitch.tv/srkevo3
If you want to watch all three, here's a multi-twitch link: http://www.multitwitch.tv/srkevo1/srkevo2/srkevo3
You can only chat in those streams if you’re subbed to them, it costs $12 to sub and the money goes to the EVO scholarship fund. You also get access to archives and HD quality. It is completely free to watch, of course, but you will be watching at a lower quality and won't have access to the archives for anything you may miss overnight.
But wait!! There’s more! www.twitch.tv/vgbootcamp will be streaming some of Day 1 Melee pools! So be sure to follow them as soon as you can so you can be notified when they’re online. Keep in mind that they are an unofficial streamer for the event so VGBC cannot run ads. Their connection will also not be very top notch so they might go down a few times while streaming (just a warning so you aren't mad when it happens!) If you want to support them at all, now is the time to do so by subscribing for $5 which gains you instant access for a month to special Smash-related emotes you can use in ANY stream channel. You can immediately cancel the renewal so you aren’t charged the following month and you will STILL be able to use the emotes for the month you subscribed.
Not only that but www.twitch.tv/CLASHTournaments will be streaming during the after hours of EVO on both Friday and Saturday nights in a hotel room to bring you the matches that might not happen in bracket. With so many players attending this year’s EVO tournament (696!!) not everyone will be able to play each other. So follow their channel to make sure you’re notified when they’re live, which according to CT they should be live at around 11 PM PST or later. This stream may have high stakes money matches and even a 6 or 10 character crew battle between M2K and Mango! You DO NOT want to miss it! Don't forget if you want to support them you can subscribe just like vgbootcamp, it's only $5.
And of course there will be streams throughout the week from other Smashers such aswww.twitch.tv/pbnj23 and more! If there are any other Smashers streaming from hotel rooms they will be posted when they’re live.
This is basically everything. Are you ready for EVO 2013? You better be! It's only a few days away!
(I hope posting this here was okay, too, not everybody seems to check the EVO subforum).
