anyone planning on traveling OoS over the summer?
I want to go OoS for once, and the summer would be the best time to do this;

APEX will probably be a no for me;
I'd like to go to either MLG Columbus or this, but they're on the same date.

But GA smash post in this thread and lets get to planning, never can start too early

It's always been a dream of mine to go to an MLG event, but looking at GAMME seems like it'd be geared more towards me;
I know my skill level, and the amateur buy in tourney/all night venue, means good EXP for me lol.

But hey, lemme know what's up, maybe we can team wherever we decide to go haha

I 100 percent confirmed for mlg columbus, and I'd recommend any GA brawler to go if at all possible.

I will also be going to apex.

Well I'm not going to GAMME if im going alone lol

I mean i'd go with u to GAMME if ur driving. Im willing to go to mlg columbus or GAMME i just need a ride to either one. Plane tickets cost to much for me :/. I was gonna go to columbus but when the tickets jumped from 69 to 115 oneway as soon as i put money into my account i gave up hope :/.

Well if that's the case then I've got like the best teammate lineup I could possibly ask for:

Melee: RedFox
Brawl: Lounis
Brawl+: ZeonStar/maybe someone else?

Cool cool, but we all have to know soon;
Registration ends in May (May 15th for the venue, and May 5th for the games)

Just to post some #s:
Arriving Friday, Leaving monday, in a room with twin beds
comes to a total of $434.64
@ 4 ppl per room- $108.66
@ 5 ppl per room-$86.93

The hotel's reservation system stops at 5 people per room.

to quote Plank:
the venue fee is $35.

singles are 15 per person
teams are 20 per TEAM, 10 per person.

so for 1 person for 1 game, itd be 60.

for both games, it'd be 85
GTR, would you be doing Melee too?

Arriving Saturday and Leaving monday comes out to be $346.00
But see the thing is, if we were driving, thats a 7 hour drive...
we arent sure what time Brawl Pools would be starting, not to menton driving down there and then getting up to play the SAME day would be a pretty daunting task;

Registration ends in May, 15th for the event, and 5th for the tournaments

I'm just going to throw this out there for future reference, and because it's happening in the south.

No matter what tourney you might think about going to over the summer, G.A.M.M.E. has the most future potential for either game. It probably will be one of the smallest majors, which is horrid, but if you do your research (or have kept up with other communities), then you'll note that it's held as one of the biggest things in a while.

I've been speculating that i'll be bigger than EVO this year, just to put it in perspective.

Not to mention it's in FN flordia, so you could like, drive to it.

I kind of want to go to Gamme. It's a lot of money though when you add food, hotel, venue, food, and gas together.
FAP definitely looks interesting after reading through the thread again. But the name of the tourney is still kind of.. tmi.

@Dogy: GAMME doesn't have Europe coming to it, does it? That's my main appeal for APEX2

@GOD!: Yeah most major tournaments get expensive because you always have to factor that in, unless you've got connections and can get housing

No, I doubt many people outside of the south are gunna go to G.A.M.M.E., which is funny.

The irony is, G.A.M.M.E. is going to be HUGE for everything else there. It's been talked about for literally over a year in other communities. Smash players are always talking about how to get new people and having "good showings" to the public, this is pretty much going to be THE PLACE to do so.

atlanta dudes should go to this for melee

http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=271094

its only like a 6 hour drive from atlanta, which is no more than most mw dudes are driving to it. lots of good players too. doesnt really conflict with anything big i dont think either, and you wont have to spend for a plane ticket

and while youre at it, look into the showdown for melee, i understand its right near mlg in location and date so thats rough for brawl but its still wide open for melee

i dunno if there are many melee players reading this thread but i saw dogysamich and thought "why not"

spread the word in appropriate places if youre interested dogy

Plus $5 venue and housing is awesome.
