I was looking at the player finder, and PA only really has 4 isolated communities:
-pittsburgh
-central PA
-scranton
-philly
I also noticed that most of us still play MELEE and not BRAWL, although there are many brawl players. We are, in fact, a divided state, not only regionally but in the game of preference.
Here's what I am proposing:
-we unify our state. If you have no one to play with, you won't play. We need a couple things for this.
1. we need to know who wants to actively unify PA. I do, but I'll need (minimal) input from probably a dozen or so people.
2. we need tournaments. I know I'm not the best representation for tournament activity in the state anymore, but even I can observe that the local tournaments aren't doing it.
I want to make a PA wide state crew. That's right, everyone. Then I want to set up tournaments so that we can all play each other rather than being isolated. After that, our crew would go about finding tournament venues and actively using them. It wouldn't be hard for us to have 40-man+ tournaments monthly, we have enough players that want to play. Also, I think our state is starved for a tournament or 6.
As for venues, we need to look for places that are willing to support a grassroots community such as this one. Good places to look are like church basements, american legion posts, or other public venue halls. I would prefer both melee and brawl for these tournaments. Game preference is another isolation barrier that needs to be broken.
So PA, give me some opinions and background. Whether you think it's stupid or a good idea or flawed or whatever, just post. Sitting around isn't working anymore.
