So I see you guys have Injustice here...but is this tournament mainly a Smash Bros. thing? Would it be totally weird to come just for Injustice?

And if not do you guys mind if I share this with the Injustice community?

Not weird at all bro. It may be primarily a smash event but that doesn't make Injustice any less important. You should definitely share this link with the Injustic community, the more the better!

Thanks again V115 ?_?. Yes please share this tournament with the injustice community! It`s $15 for venue (since Injustice is a side game) and it`s $10 to enter Injustice!

The card doesn't do anything. TL;DR they started handing them out because A&C World is now a "club" because they have to be one because of some law passed recently...free membership it's just a card so w/e

The smashfests on Friday always open at 3 and they always stay open until at least 8, at most 10, depending on attendance. I imagine (ie I think but no promises from me so don't quote me on this) that if we get a decent # of out-of-Ontario players at the smashfest (Leon Dabuz and Will will all be there for sure since they arrive Thursday...dunno about other OoO players) in combination with a decent # of Ontario players (likely to happen since it's the day before IMPULSE) and we tell the staff that we have OoO people who want to get in that practice (making it sound like a 'special occasion' I guess) then getting them to stay open til 10 should be a breeze.

Also in case I haven't already posted it in this thread, I'll bring a Brawl setup with infinite replay.

Also somebody else post something after this so I can make my post about housing.

Thanks a lot for the info! My flight arrives a bit before 7, and assuming it takes about an hour to get to A&C from the airport, I'll probably get there around 8ish...IDK how well that will work out, but w/e.

anybody out there experienced in the process needed to convert money?

all I was told was, take your money to a bank.

but is that any bank? can i get canadian dollars at my bank of america in rochester? does it have to be a bank near the border? how long does it take? is there a conversion fee? how much is it?

Yeah prior to Apex I was able to withdraw $200 USD from my Canadian account, so they just gave me 200 USD in cash and subtracted like 203 CAD from my account.

Juggleguy maybe look around the venue's address for parking. I could look if anything... but im sure you can do it too it will be really hard to park in the streets, just a heads up and it'll surely cost moolah.

edit: also found this: http://en.parkopedia.ca/parking/lot/jarvis_st_shuter_st/toronto/

Yeah, I'd rather not pay $46 to park. :ohwell:

Looking for the absolute cheapest parking options within, say, a 3-block radius around the venue. I'm not familiar with the local area, but anyone who is should be able to provide this information almost immediately, which is why I'm disappointed it hasn't been provided already.

Both days of venue fee have to be paid even if I'm only there for the first day of the tournament? I'll be entering melee but I don't know yet if I'll make it on Sunday.

Yes will need to pay the entire venue fee. it's a one package deal.

Never said I expected free parking. I do expect someone familiar with the area to provide a quick line of info such as "go to ___ parking structure because it's the cheapest option within 3 blocks of the venue"... is that really so much to ask for?

unno lol wish I could help I don't live there.

but... I DO remember there being a parking lot near the venue ( maybe 2-4 blocks away) that was 10-12$ for the whole day at last impulse. I would have to remember where it was x.x

Most of the locals don't drive around in downtown Toronto (we take the subway/metro/w/e u wanna call it). let me see what I can get you real quick so far.
