It starts at 12 p.m. both Brawl and Smash tournament 12 p.m. sharp. Since there will be doubles for both games and to ensure we will have enough time both tournament must start as early as possible.

You can get there as early as 9 a.m. You have until 11 a.m. to bring equipment. I extended the time for everyone. I just want to make sure the room is set up and ready to go in time for the tournaments beginning at 12 p.m. I don't want to do any major moving of anything after the tournament has began as that would be a huge distraction. That was the only reason I stated this. Remember if you have any problems or you think you may be late just call me at 404-518-2540 and let me know what is going on.
If you buy a tournament DVD (Evo for example) you'll notice there's always a difference in quality as well but really no one cares. You'll get used to each style of recording. As far as DVD Recorders, from my past experience I have seen crazy lag with them when you begin recording through them. Before you bring them make sure you test them. I know VCRs do not lag but make sure you hook up your system through the DVD Recorder and hook that out to a TV and see if there's any lag. Because all the ones I've used have had considerable lag and that is definitely not cool, especially since this is tournament play.
Yeah, go to the wikipedia page of the CNN Center. It says it at the bottom. Here's a link for the lazy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNN_Center

Remember guys all the footage you must let me collect. I will upload it all online for us to enjoy at a later point. It will be made into a DVD along with being uploaded to the internet for free. So, do not walk out with any of the footage. I promise I will get it uploaded and placed online. But it is really crucial that I myself leave with all the content from the tournament. Especially if it pertains to tournament play. I am making a promise to all of you that you will be able to view it all online. I know exactly how to do it and I've done it before. Here are a few videos I've uploaded online from a previous tournament through VCR. Note that the quality is lowered simply because of the way I uploaded it on youtube not because of how it was captured. The orignial tapes look much better.

Guys remember Guitar Hero is going to be there so be nice to those guys alright? I know much of the fighting game community doesn't respect Guitar Hero, but their tournament will be quite quick (only like ten people are coming and I only added it for my brother's friends.)

Does that include tourney attendance? I was simply wondering whether or not we'd end up having to do pools due to a large amount of brawlers

I dont think there will be TOO many contestants, so ridiculous to where you cant even breathe. it would be nice for recognition reasons, though.
Crap.
We'll see for sure once Impact posts again.

How many people are coming. . . . . ? There's no way I can answer that. However, as far as an educated guess, I'd like to say around 50 people. If there's a crazy amount of attendence then we'll just have to pool but as of right now it's going to be double elimination two out of 3. That's the reason why both tournaments are starting no matter what at 12 p.m. so we can ensure that we'll have the entire day for the tournament. I want to dedicated about eight televisions for Smash and Melee for the entire day. So, I'm dedicating quite a bit of this event specifically for Brawl. My goal is to have about 15 televisions hooked up. And of course with the incentive of free entry with equipment we'll have more than enough equipment for the event. I never thought Brawl would have this much hype behind it but you guys are very dedicated. I'll make sure my next event caters to you guys quite a bit more when it comes through in January.
If they do, they'll probably divide people far away from local players, and by equal skill level. That means I won't be facing Reflex or you in my pools, if it works out the way it generally should anyway.
At least I always thought pools worked beautifully like that in an utopia, but not always. I have fate in Impact Clash though.

Yeah, I'm bringing my DVD recorder and a bunch of DVDs. Not too happy with giving away my DVD-RWs, but I can live with it, I'll probably just link a playlist to Impact's Youtube account if I need to.
Lord Axl will be taking me. Someone else you know right?
In a perfect world...
Please sir do not break my dreams...they are the only things I cling onto for hope in this bleak world. ;_;
Okay, not really, but you know, I want to at least appear on the bracket?

pools wont take long if pool captains are named and people stay near their pools. you cant really just make a fair bracket with 50+ people anyway.

what? its easy to make a fair bracket with 50+ people
Yeah, he graduated from my school last year, but we didn't really know each other until a smash tourney lol

Are there going to be a lot of chairs? I don't want to wear heels if I'm going to be standing the entire time
I've never played Smash standing up lol,
Well of course, but I'm not going to be sitting and playing smash the entire time, I'd prefer to sit and do various other things as well haha

I'll try to work with you. I have a laptop with a DVD drive so if you bring these discs I can rip them to my computer and let you hang on to the discs if you'd like. But I am still weary of DVD Recorders since I think they may cause delay during game play. Make sure you test it out before you bring it. We'll test it out off the jump though anyway. But I'll try my best to give you your footage back.
No wonder youre so good!
that must be the secret!
