Lol sheik.
Thats a silly character.

But I'm not opposed to Mango going to this tournament, but if there were to be a bigger one it would make more sense to send him to that.

Germany is better to travel to for most european countries than sweden or norway so we'll may only have 100 people but the best of the best from each european country.
It's not always about quantity but also about quality!

It's a lot about quantity as far as this fund goes

people will donate more the more likely they are to get some/all of their money back

I'm sure it'll be a great tourney and that you're a great TO, but I'd much rather send him to a tourney without X mid-level euro player and with 30 other randoms

Mango wants to go to this one, I'm cool with him going to this one. If all the top Euro players are there, it's all good imo. If they set up a stream, it'd be perfect. Anyone who's not going can watch and hype it up on the stream.

So what happens when Mango 4-0s Armada at Apex? Will Europe just cancel the whole event or leave him stranded in a German airport (apparently that's how you foreigners treat your guest smashers)?

lmao, nah, after mango wins the next battle in EU will be ridiculously insane... Good candidate for most anticipated match in smash history.... I doubt anyone will get in the way of that.

But if mango wins in EU he better leave quickly....

lol

That's how we were treated once in America. Besides, if you can't figure out what to do by yourself or ask for help, you shouldn't be travelling alone in the first place...

lol i'm just playin, but i've seen some animosity lately and pointed it out. no harm done lol

on the subject of mango, this trip will work out. As long as he's going to tournaments and trying, people will make it work if he comes up short, i'm sure.

I don't care about getting paid back so much as making sure mango ***** armada at the BIGGEST tournament in eurosmash history, which is impossible with a player cap at 100 :/

Why does the tournament need to have a huge attendance rate for it to be hype?
Better players = more hype. More people means more better players. The 100 cap is idiotic.

When I get my next paycheck I will try to donate like 100-200 bucks. Dead serious, I'll donate what I can. As long as LOTS of Videos are recorded.

Do you have to be 18 to make a paypal? I hate still being 17.



Edit: Donated 75 for now. Other peeps should hop on this and get Mango to Germany!

That's quite true. From what I've heard Novi say though, they are trying to reserve spots for the top players, so the best players in EU should be there. Mango alone could create enough incentive for top EU players to go and test themselves against the US champ.

That said, what you say could very well have an effect on the tournament and it's a legit concern. I just don't think it will impact the tournament enough for the tournament to turn out bad.

The more of the community was like Soft Serve, I'm pretty sure we would have million dollar sponsors because they'd realize we have insane amounts of money to spend. Either that, or $50 entry fees for locals.

It's easy for me to give because I don't have to support myself. I feel like most of the community has more important needs for their cash (like food, I think people need that) then to spend it on a tourney they aren't even attending. That or "can't afford it" is just the biggest John for missing tourneys.

Yeah I'm tryin to buy a house right now, so although I could fund the entire trip I dunno how much I will have to spend at any given moment... as soon as I find the right place I gotta jump on it... and my car will prob. break down tomorrow for all i know... lol. But if he has been trying and still legitmately comes up short a hundred or so, I'll pay that and not expect it back.

You're a wonderful person, Soft Serve.

Ideally, how soon would Mango want the money?
Right now, the prices are around $1000 and they have gone down a little bit since I last checked. According to my friend the flight prices are usually the lowest around 4 months before the flight so I expect them to go down still.

Mango is wild and a beast. You have no idea what he's capable of. Getting drunk with him was an awesome experience. lolllll. Held it down with him with 2-3 beers + drinking half a bottle of whisky and a bit of vodka too without needing to go puke. After that day... the hate is gone.
