....and some were impending accidents
kiwiii: Daytona beach is my choice...it's less than 2 hours away. Cocoa is closest...they're all good. I mean, it's freakin FL.
*IMPORTANT*
Please don't book any flights or anything at this point. Remember, this is still in planning stages, and as such, it may be moved or whatever...so please don't spend your money yet. We will do our best to keep all of you updated on it.
Venue is becoming an increasing worry to us...We understand that you are all being patient...and we appreciate it. Again, we'll do everything in our power to update all of you on any change...including Venue choice. Thanks to everybody for all the interest in this tourney.
<3 you all.

wassup ppl....
Ok... so i havent been to Florida in like 2 yrs and i wouldnt mind coming back and enjoying a nice smash tournament w/ sum rigged pots and rigged brackets(FL is famous for that). I really dont mind seriously. but if you want to make this so big that your trying to SUBSTITUTE for FC being canceled then you have to change a couple things around.
Let me rephrase...you dont HAVE TO, but it'll definetly help bring more ppl in. lets face it ppl, even though there are countless complaints about brawl, MELEE is done. U wanna keep playing it...sure watever, ur choice, BUT DONT MAKE IT THE MAIN ATTRACTION. SWITCH the days of melee and brawl and i really think u 'll get more ppl to show. cuz sunday and monday is tough for ppl who work. Wii is the new console and brawl is the new smash, let that be the focus, then you can hold ur little side melee tournament. whatever. Also... Show some generosity and Hold an OUT OF STATE POT in the ballpark of lets say $500. that's a good amount for FLORIDA'S AWESOME TOURNAMENT! lol.
I promise you, you make these 2 changes to this tournament, D.A. will definetly be there.
Im gonna go ahead and post this on the other thread of yours.

Not gonna let you win; but if it's really your birthday I guess I could throw a free entry your way, we'll see.
wow if melee becomes some ****ty small side tourney behind brawl, **** it, not worth the 14 hours.
yea it's unfortunate that the average brawl match takes 7 min, and would require 72 hours in order to complete a 60-man tourney
and thanks for the beach references :D
i was in tampa last summer and it was humid as hell. would i have any luck w/ dry heat in daytona and/or cocoa beaches?

lol. wow.... if it seriously takes you that long to kill sum1 in brawl then u havent played the game long enough. U'll definetly be sure to lose. I promise you just like in Melee... Florida will have alot to learn from New York in Brawl.
i don't play brawl. i was just making fun of it because it's a campy *** slow mundane game
it'd be awesome if DA decided to attend, im not saying anything against that. but how sure of a promise is that? it's not like DA ever goes out of state for any tournaments. at least, not the entire or majority of the crew

I already posted this response in the other thread, but since you felt like posting again, so will I.
While you may not be playing melee anymore, that doesn't mean people aren't, a lot of people in florida and in the nation still play melee as well as brawl. I'm not giving one preference over the other, both games have an equal amount of time for play, and are meant to be side by side, not one main game and then a little side thing. The only thing on the side will be 64 tourneys run by Sheer and anyone else.
Now that brawls out, melee tournaments aren't happening nearly as much. Offering melee tournaments, especially large-scale ones like these, will help bring in the crowds from far away, we already have a lot of west coast people who show interest, and it's not just because of brawl, it's the melee. The tournaments that still offer melee and brawl will be the ones that draw in the biggest crowds, because some people just refuse to play brawl and vice versa. FL alone could get 200 just for brawl, we want to attract OOS players and for that, we need melee. Plus it's awesome.
hell yeah haha let's do it :] hope to see ya there !
and play my fox. take vengeance on all the scrub bowsers i ***** him with haha :D

Yah man FL could easily get a 200+ man brawl tourney without any OOS at all. FL brawl is no doubt the biggest scene in the country from what I've seen. We had 2 130 person tourneys last month alone. (both of those tourneys had to turn away/refund 30-40 people too)
Im pritty sure melee is what is attracting the OOS people, not brawl. So we really shouldn't change anything.

Yeah I'd take the current advice on beaches kiwii, I didn't have the chance to visit any while at UCF (no car johns)!!!

The one part was answered fairly well by Frames and others... but just to touch on the other parts of Raffa's post...
there will be no rigged pot or bracket at this tournament. None of the tournament directors are named Rockcrock or maverick
<3 them
Also, to offer an OOS bonus would be out of pocket for us...and since we don't have enough money to front that, I'd say it probably won't happen. The only way we could hold something like that is if we make more on door fees than the room costs, but we were already planning on spending that for foodstuffs and such.
Like, personally, I'd rather get a bunch of pizza for everybody attending than give a bonus to a single person...or even several people.
Idk, man... to ask us to front $500 is kinda ridiculous, when we don't exactly roll in money. Sure, it'd be a nice treat for OOS, but there is a limit to what we can do. And usually, an OOS bonus is used to attract OOS...which, from the looks of it, we're already doing. So I don't see any reason for it, unless we just have extra money floating around.
*EDIT*
also, to kiwiii...so we don't ignore your post... I hate to tell you, but FL is really humid a lot of the time. I'm not really sure you can get away from it. the beach seems pretty nice, still, but yeah, it's a bit sticky. sorrys.
