It is cancelled. No one can be an adviser for it on such short notice. This is bull****.So this is just about 100% cancelled?
Since this was at the University Wisconsin Oshkosh, and we were getting the space for free, and an adviser was required for us to be allowed to use the space. Basically it's just a UWO requirement from what I understand.fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuudgebutttits I was really looking forward to this
edit: what's an adviser, and why do you need one?
Spikes tried a church that he had used in the past, but no go there. They put in new carpet and they weren't willing to let people come in. The other venue would have cost 200 dollars per day, and would have required people to stay and pay for a hotel room overnight. No thanks.noway we can switch the venue, or did you guys already try that?
uh.... why is this a definite no? If peopel are being charged a $5 door fee, and you get about a hundered peeps, that's 500 bucks to cover two days+.The other venue would have cost 200 dollars per day, and would have required people to stay and pay for a hotel room overnight. No thanks.
Housing would be a huge concern. Plus, it's less space. We didn't have 100 people coming to this, by registration counts at least.uh.... why is this a definite no? If peopel are being charged a $5 door fee, and you get about a hundered peeps, that's 500 bucks to cover two days+.
you weren't gauranteed 40 people for each touney? Becasue i was lead to believe this was of a good amount of interest.Housing would be a huge concern. Plus, it's less space. We didn't have 100 people coming to this, by registration counts at least.
We'd be better off trying to convince UWO to let us scratch the overnight, and get away without an adviser. But housing is a HUGE issue.
i agree, it doesn't take all that long to figure out housing.Also, can we get a headcount of how may people were relying on housing? A whole bunch of us werent even aware of the venue housing. It's only tuesday, and there's still time to make arrangements
Yeah, that would be the best way to go. There's a decent amount of peopel coming for only one day, so i think this housing situation is blown out of proportion. Always good ot take a headcount for informations sake.If there's a way for everyone to find housing, I'll ask UWO if we can have an adviser-less tourney on Friday and Saturday, without the overnight. I'm not sure if that's possible, because at least the original plans were to have an adviser at ONE point. I can get an answer before 10AM tomorrow.
I mentioned this to spikes before any of you posted anything. lol.I'm glad that something is now being attempted, and don't take it the wrong way, but i'm still pretty pissed that without people bitchin', you guys would have rolled over on the whole deal without thinking abotu just doing no housing.
I'm not gonna drag the point on, but this went from being 100% off to "posssibly maybe" after a few people voiced thier opinions.I mentioned this to spikes before any of you posted anything. lol.
I dont wanna drag that point on either, but yes, you guys really made me want to try harder. Housing is the only issue, and you guys are absolutely right that we can at least try to work something out.I'm not gonna drag the point on, but this went from being 100% off to "posssibly maybe" after a few people voiced thier opinions.
If you weren't stressed, you would be a poor tournament host, lol. I'm glad there's effort and everyoen appreciated all you guys can do.I dont wanna drag that point on either, but yes, you guys really made me want to try harder.

Believe me, i've been stressing over this **** hardcore. =\
10am tomorrow is when spikes is meeting with people who can make or break this tourney.Ok, now I am confused lol. So there is a chance that this will still happen? I am from the Twin Cities region in Minnesota, so I kind of need to know the probability that it will happen, cause the drive is a long one and people are expecting me to drive.
