Spar Games Winnipeg Tourny!
POST IF YOU THINK YOU CAN COME! We REALLY appreciate having a bit of an idea how many people may-or-may-not come!
Well, it seems that Spar games (
http://www.spargames.com/) is having a big-*** smash tourny on December 30th.
The site says:
"It’s time to duke it out Mushroom Kingdom style. Do you secretly play as Princess Peach when no one is watching? Well, it’s time to put that Royal Slap training to good use because SPAR Games is hosting its first-ever Super Smash Bros. Melee Tournament on December 30.
Choose from over 20 character in one of the best multiplayer games to make it to the Nintendo Gamecube. Whether it be Link, Captain Falcon, Pikachu or Yoshi. You’re bound to find a character with which to conquer the opposition. Say goodbye to 2006 with a smash and sign up today!"
Assuming I'm not in Grand Forks doing a Taiko gig, this looks awesome. I've already contacted them just to let them know what an awesome(potential) turn-out this could be, and that I'm passing the word already.
I figure that if we can hype this here, qcfpunch, and smashboards PLUS ACTUAL ADVERTISING, we can get much, MUCH more people then even BaseLan had. Oh man. I'm pumped.
are you?
