Ok, so.
Shin Blanka is, at the moment, nice enough to have Smash (melee and brawl) at FRXIII this year. For those of you who don't know what exactly Final Round is, it's the second biggest fighting game national in the nation. Second to evo.
If you can wrap your head around that, you can start putting together what sorts of things you can get out of this.
Wanna go and just play? That's kool.
Play other games? Major comp for those too.
Ever have an idol in a game? They're more-than-likely going to be there.
But here's the problem (and the reason why I'm posting this notice to begin with)
What is important is that a largely publicized tournament is offering to, once again, shine some light on smash. Whether it be big or small, they're willing to give us another chance. (and trust me, it won't be the SMALLEST thing there. Atleast we can play on the big screen if we ask and don't ***** about whatever tv finals are on.)

SO. What I'm asking you to do. Is to pre-reg
You put no money down. Pre-regging will basically say "Hey, I'm interested in going."
You can register for multiple stuff on the site (it's fairly simple to navigate), yada yada.
Some quick things to note:
In the event melee goes down, the rules will more-than-likely (not guaranteed, but more-than-likely) change to reflect the new ruleset that came out.
If it does go down, I'm also going to sit down and try to revamp those rules so it doesn't look like you need a **** degree to play it. (Major turn-off compared to simple stuff like "BYOC, No Shouldering, Default Round Settings"

Uuum, that's pretty much it. Tourneys like this, contrary to the community's belief, are actually VERY good for us. It's one of our 3 pools to bring new people into the game (the other two being straight newbies, and then brawl players...). If at nothing else, you can just go and have a good time.
Unless something crazy happens, I'm going to be there regardless. A good bit of the GA Melee community is going to be there as well. Worst case scenario, somebody will probably have a cube on them.
So again, pre-reg, make it happen, have some fun. All that jazz.

(small sidenote: Yes, brawl is in the same situation. If you guys want brawl, do work for your game. Not only is it not my problem, but you guys are already in horrible standing for what happened last year for FRXII, along with the constant problems at GA tourneys since then. That's really ALL they know about brawl, actually.)

Ya see, smash isn't exactly a big draw at these events. Now, I could go into my whole list of why's and why not's, but that's not important.
