You said statistically with a capital C, which doesn't make much sense D:

See what I did there?

If you saw the vids from my first tourney, it was on the weekend that Brawl came out so a lot of people hardly knew how to play. My second one will be next weekend though and I'll make sure to upload those tourney vids as well. Melee is another story though as FL pretty much owns face there.

Tampa's scene is decent, but nothing too fantastic. There's smashers in the area, but generally I tend to be the only person to travel out of town for tourneys. Several places are near by with people as well like Sarasota, Clearwater, Saint Pete, etc.

Orlando's only 2 hours from us, and that's the main tourney scene in Florida.

See, that shows how much I went to Melee tournaments... Does iNet Gamerz still exist?
no the last tournament we had there some one stole one of their wiis
so they told us we couldnt hold any more tourneys there

which is a shame because we would have still held melee tourneys there which would have solved the whole gigs doing melee tourneys instead of brawl tourneys thing.

i mean the store is still there yeah so if u mean to just go there and play games yeah it still exists. Just no more tourneys there

Alright, we'll I do have good news. A thread will be up today on what will be going on, but we have a few dates in mind.

The beginning of August at the earliest, which would be August 1-2 and August 8-9. We may have a place to hold it at, and if so, it will be a two day tournament. GameStop has not got back to us whether they will sponsor it or not, but the place will be free to use all weekend. The catch to that is some of the money will go to the D'Iberville Special Needs Soccer Team, set up for disabled and handicapped kids to play soccer and have fun. It will be a two day tournament, the first being Super Smash Bros. Brawl and the second being Melee. You will be able to sleep inside the place all night, and there are restaurants such as Taco Bell, Hooters, Applebees, Outback, Beef O' Bradees, and a few other places close by to the location of the tournament. We will have a Brawl Singles and Doubles and a Melee singles and doubles, each costing 10 dollars to enter. Prizes will consist of the entry fees and possibly others such as gift cards to Wal-Mart and GameStop, and possibly a new 32" TV. The better prizes will be in the tournament the most people express interest in, so weather it be Brawl or Melee, we do not know.

If you have any questions or concerns, you may post it here. We know it's a long way from most Mississippi Smashers, but assuming the prizes are good I don't think that it should matter that much. If most of you want Melee, then we will make the Melee Tournaments the ones worth the prizes. Just tell me what you guys want, as I hope all of you up north will want to come down here and meet the few smashers, like myself, secluded from everyone who is really playing the game. I will have the thread up, but also invite people yourself. People in the Melee scene don't know me nearly as well as they probably know all of you guys, so please help make this a successful tournament.

Thanks.
