I'd say keep in on the down low (we're playing in me and Derek's wee dorm room), but lol, nobody is going to show up anyway.

We have recording software now too if we're interested in recording matches too btw (that works this time, not the crappy IT1 WMM stuff..)

Well, by my calculations we could theoretically fit everyone in the dorm room to play, but I'd rather play at Jake's if that's in the air (was that in the air Jake? heh) Also, so as not to screw you over Von, I can give you a ride to Jake's if you want (I have to pick Phillip up from Friendswood anyway.)

Which tourney, the one on the 9th? I'm probably not going to be there, but even if I was, Rayz is my teammate fo life. I'd be happy to team with you sometime though. Maybe if I go down to a Valley tourney.

This is taken from the AnimeFEST "Back Room" thread. Yeah, I posted it, however I should bring it to the attention of every Texas Melee thread to discuss internally.

Okay, I thought about it and came up with this compromise as far as Melee goes. I realized that it was hypocritical to neccessarly call Melee a dead game, however the numbers have taken a sharp decline since Brawl came on the MLG circuit this year. Compare it to what Street Fighter IV did to Third Strike and what Marvel vs Capcom 3 will do to Marvel 2 once it comes out in March. The old will give way to the young as the saying goes.

However I run into a problem. I lack any Gamecube/Wii titles that will justify buying 8 ASUS monitors exclusively for 8 Wiis.

I am willing to add Melee to the tournament list(I have a memory card that I think has all of the characters unlocked so we don't need to worry about that), however the trade off is that I am unwilling to work the tournament into a Daytime schedule.

So your choice is this, either have the game at the convention to play it at night, or not have the game at all.

By night I mean that tournament start time will be about 11 PM, I think that will be one hour before the rave.

Other tournaments that will be during night time hours will be HDR, Marvel 2 Low Tier, a game mode of Medal of Honor, Halo Reach and duplicate tournaments of Super Street Fighter IV and others.

Could you give us more details on where/when this Animefest will take place? We may need to know that information before deciding to tell you to have Melee to make sure that we're not just wasting your time.
