I can bring at least 1 setup, maybe 2 if I have all the leads.
I have 2 melee copies as well.
I have like 3 multi-plug sockets.
Uh I have a microphone as well I think.

I've got a wii, but no melee disc.

Wat do?
There will be cubes without discs please bring it :)

I have a melee disc and i'm not able to bring my cube :)

Problem solved lol.
Aaron if you are going to seriously tell me you aren't bringing your cube as 'it can't fit in your bag' stop being a lazy ****. I ain't spent all week finding ****ing tvs for people NOT to bring their cubes. If you don't bring your cube, or have a valid reason, you can walk to the venue. Don't be selfish.

imma bring GC/Melee and TV :)
Awesome dude!

How am I being lazy, if I have enough energy for me to pack a bag and wake up early to go to the tournament then I definitely have enough energy to simply put my cube in my bag, it is a valid reason I have for not taken it and unless I get a bigger suitcase (which I might be able to in the next few days) then I won't be able to fit it in

Take two bags. I think that is a balls excuse. You can walk from the train station to the venue. I posted directions on the SNY thread so make sure you print them.

Who said I wouldn't pick the others up? it is the principle of it Aaron. I have done so much out of my way for this tournament and I can see many people appreciate it by saying what they can bring. Bringing a setup, as Ben said, is standard. Ive taken a cube to every tournament (including European) I have attended.

lol There's no way everyone would get in the car and leave me in Birmingham though which is why I said that comment, that's pretty obvious.

I actually got a bigger suitcase (as I said I potentially might before) from my brother who returned from some Althetic Trip thingy so I can actually bring my cube anyway which means someone needs to bring an extra game for The Flith.

I need people to bring as many of the following as possible. Please appreciate I am doing my very best to put on the best tournament possible for 110 people. Understandbly I need your help aswell.

1. Gamecubes + Wiis. If you have more than on bring them. If each person in the UK brings their own cube/wii we will have enough setups per tv. If not WE DON'T.

2. Copies of melee. Please bring every copy of melee you have and/or your family and friends. More copies we have more than likely we will have enough setups running.

3. Powerpoints. Please bring any size powerpoints you have. 2 plug, 4 plug, 6 plug and 8 plug each. Doesn't matter how long or small they will come in useful. Most people use them in their rooms. If you are taken your setup to SNY you won't need them while your away. SO PLEASE BRING THEM.

4. TVS. Between me and Charles we have around 30 tvs at the moment. Please please please understand that it is paramount that the rest of the community help with this. It really isn't hard to put 2 small tvs in your car if you are getting a lift. Small tvs are fine. PLEASE BRING THEM.

5. Recording setups including handheld cameras/camcorders to get live footage of the tournament.

6. Microphones and amps. More the merrier.

7. Universal remotes. This is a huge must. Huge chances are most tvs don't have a remote. We need universal remotes to sort them out. More we have increases the chance of getting every tv working aswell as how quickly we get them working.


8. Does anyone have a projector screen that they can bring. Think friends/family and work. I have a projector but no screen. Also, any cables we may need for the projector (between setups/laptops etc).

9. Toilet Roll and Bin bags. I am seriously not joking here lol. Venue doesn't supply them. I encourage you to bring your own roll and bin bags you have lying around (give them to me please).

10. Scart Blocks

11. RF cables or ANY CABLE THAT GOES FROM THE BACK OF A CUBE/WII INTO AN AERIAL PORT.

ALSO THINK ABOUT BRINGING/DOING THE FOLLOWING

1. Deoderant
2. Shampoo
3. Towel
4. Toothpaste/Toothbrush
5. Sleeping bag/blanket
6. Pillow
7. Sticky labels on all your stuff
8. Getting my mobile number
9. Walking directions from google maps if you are getting into Longbridge station and I can't get you.
10. Printed bus details and walking directions if you are getting into Birmingham city centre and I can't get you.
11. Alcohol to chill and enjoy evening chatter. Not everyone will be geeking out in the gym hall with smash all night ;)
12. Toilet roll
Getting to the venue information

If you are arriving in Birmingham city centre;

You need to go to Birmingham New Street train station and get a train to Longbridge. Trains leave every ten minutes, take twenty minutes and cost £2.80.

If you arrive at Digbeth coach station you need to walk to Birmingham New Street train station.http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&s...=6.879233,26.279297&ie=UTF8&z=16&layer=c&pw=2

If you arrive at Priory Queensway coch station you need to walk to Birmingham New Street train station. http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&s...95657&spn=0.006927,0.025663&z=15&layer=c&pw=2

When you get to Longbridge train station​

1. Ring my mobile. If I am available I will come collect you. Drive is only 5 minutes. Please remember that I will be very busy tuesday.

2. Phone for a taxi (do this in advance of arriving at Londbridge. The train from Birmingham city centre is 20 mins so ring before getting train). Try; 0121 476 5252 , 0121 476 5252 and 0121 475 1234 . Remember to get a quote before booking. The venue is only five minutes away so it should be less than £5.

3. Walk. Directions are: http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&s...n=0.006939,0.025663&ie=UTF8&z=13&layer=c&pw=2 Takes 30 mins.



When walking you will eventually come to a small roundabout with a pub on it. Turn right and the venue is there. Look at the website to see how the venue looks from the outside.
My address if anyone needs it: 33 Grange Road, Stourbridge, DY9 7LE.
My mobile is: 07982248134.


Also, for those getting into Longbridge and want a lift from me instead of walking please take note. Alot of people will be doing the same thing. Please be courteous and let me know BEFORE you get there like tell me when you are getting on the train to Longbridge or else you maybe waiting for some time.

Lastly, Brits if you want a lift from Longbridge instead of walking I expect you to bring cubes as part of the deal. If you don't post a valid reason you can walk.

My cube's playing up, as it seems to be failing to read discs a bit. Should I still bring it and just get it marked for friendlies only, in case it fails mid match?

if you have the same problem as my GC, your GC will not fail mid-game the GC waits in till the next time it loads something new to fail(when it says *And The Winner Is*) so it should be fine.
