If you guys ever host a tourney on any day that isn't a school day, I'm going. <_< >_>
Totally. -nodnod.-

And you should do Melee. o.o More people would be more involved, methinks. Because everyone loves Melee! :3
Even though I suck at Melee, BUT STILL! >:3

not really. i don't love melee, but if its what most people want then you should do. of course i'm not gonna compete in it because kirby is horrible in melee.

yeah
but the thing is our tournaments aren't quite top priority over the others
so we kinda wait it out somewhat to see that gigs, the gathering place, and Florida gaming arent the same weekend
once those are outta the way we choose
i guess

As of right now, I'm looking at scheduling the next GP Tourney for May 23rd. Also, I think we should cooperate when we set tournament dates so that we don't schedule events on the same day, and maybe I could get some fliers from your store to put them in Gathering Place and vice versa. Just some thoughts of mine.

When's the next Gamingzone tourney? I think that it should be May 9th. Two weeks notice should be enough time, and we don't have to worry about competing for other tourneys.

Yea, I think may 9th is open. I will probably come to this. Its kinda a far drive, but if the attendance is good Ill come. I'm more than likely only going to do singles. It depends tho on if I find a partner I feel comfortable with by the time this comes around.

Yeah, I'll be sure to be there. Next weekend.

And change the thread title so people know that there's a new tourney. It helps attract more people.

Everyone should come to this. These tournaments are generally very well run. A very friendly atmosphere too.

Seems like you're not doing melee, OK.

Also, doubles prices should be an even number, imo. It's just easier for teams to pay that way. Make it 14$ or 16$.

Yes, and?

Do you mean that I'm biased because I'm from Kissimmee. And no, I don't think that all of FL should go to this, but those in the area should. It's decent.

Or if I completely misunderstood you, :psycho:

But yeah, what you mean?

You did misunderstand. I was just surprised to see that someone else here is from Kissimmee. *points to own location*. And you play G&W too. O_O

Prizes:

Singles
1st:30% of the pot.
2nd:10%
Same for Doubles

Worse pot ****** i've seen in the entire U.S.
That was the same amount at the last 2 tournies.
Nothing against you adrock but im prolly gona skip it.
A few others I know of might as well.
It should be at least 70%, but a fair amount is like 80% to 90%.

the largest acceptable pot **** is usually 50%. (iNET and some other tournaments)

taking 60% is.......

enough to turn TONY away.

lol


and raising the entrance fee isn't going to help.

when it comes to money people attend tournaments for two reasons.

low entry fee, or high prizes

I don't know why your manager wants to make so much money off of this, but tell her that in the long run, she will be making more money with a repeated local tournament series with high attendance, than with a failing tournament series that never gets many people because of the high entrance fee and low pow distribution.



remember, not everyone who goes to tournaments expects to win money. most people go for fun or experience.

Lol, people do live in Kissimmee. Unfortunately, not many of them smash. But it's cool that you also play G&W.

We thank you Adrock. Not that I really should care about the pot ****, but Rx, Tony and others do have a point.

Also, I live 5 min. from the BVL library. A fest would be fun, just need a time and place.
