I definitely didn't steal anything. Now excuse me while I go out and spend this $35 I magically obtained.

I, Danny, who ran the tournament with my Mom and Grandma took $10 a piece for running the tournament. We spent 6 hours of our time helping out with the tournament. We're not sure where the extra $5 went. Maybe someone didn't pay or it got lost in the exchanges. I probably should have announced that we were doing this at the beginning of the tourney. Sorry for the miscommunication. I hope you had fun at the tournament. We are hoping to host another one in March. Congratulations to Kain.Why are there $30 missing from the payouts in singles and $5 from doubles?
I agree with what you and DLA say. I am new to running tournaments. I should have said something and I will learn for next time. Next time, if I decide to take any fee for running the tournament, I will work it out in the venue fee.I'm not saying thats unreasonable, you should just definitely say that BEFORE hand. Most venues, if they do something like this, take it out of the venue fee, not the pot itself. If you felt the need to be compensated, no one would've cared about a $5 venue fee instead of a $3 one. Doing this without telling anyone that you're taking it directly out of the pot is definitely shady.
Don't worry about it, I'm sure everyone knows that you weren't trying to steal or anything. However I would suggest that next tournament you return the money to the people who won it, because they shouldn't have to suffer for the mistake. They won the money fair and square after all.I agree with what you and DLA say. I am new to running tournaments. I should have said something and I will learn for next time.

I hope you guys had fun. Please appreciate that we had this tournament. There hasn't been a tournament at Cyber Arena since last August, which Chompy also hosted. Chompy worked hard to get this one organized. Me and my family took our time out and worked hard to run the tournament smoothly, so none of you had to worry about any of the tournament organization and could just hang out with your friends.
I admit there are some things that we made mistakes on that we will learn from for the future. If you guys appreciated the time and effort that we put forth to run this tournament, we will learn to improve and run more tournaments so you guys can have fun.
There's a difference between hosting a tournament and running a tournament BarnsicleI have never been paid for running a tournament in my life.
lolololol that's because no one wants to meet your cat face family.When I was going to host a smashfest nobody came.
That is amazing.@Oro/King/Norm: The difference is that you guys are actually into smash, so simply having a tournament is worth all the hard work to you (though I'm sure no one would mind if you chose to take some venue fee).
I imagine chompy's family is probably bored out of their skulls sitting around running a tourney for something they don't care about. (though I hear his mom mains )
