Hello!

I am hosting another tournament in Frankfort, KY! It will be held on May 24th, 2014

This tournament is going to go much, much better than the last one! There are two big changes to the tournament this time. The two big changes are that BRAWL WILL NOT BE THERE. If you only play Brawl I would not come because Brawl will NOT be there. Nothing personal, it just wont be there. The other change is that Smash 64 will be there. However, this tournament is focused on Melee and Project M.

The events will be the following:

Melee - Singles & Doubles

Project M - Singles & Doubles

Smash 64 - Singles ( Smash 64 is a side event so if time is constrained then it will not happen


*** I am really thinking of Crew Battles *** But it needs to have at least 4 crews.

Schedule:

10am - Venue Opens and I will set up with others

11am - Registration starts

12pm - Registration for Melee DOUBLES and Project Melee SINGLES end.
(If you shoot me a text [502-352-3131] or tell one of the attendees you will be arriving after 12pm then I can fit you in the bracket/pools. You will pay and play when you arrive.)

12:20pm - Project Melee SINGLES Pools are finalized and will begin shortly after.

12:45pm - Melee DOUBLES bracket is finalized and will begin shortly after.

330pm - Melee SINGLES registration ends

4pm - Melee SINGLES pools begin

530pm - Project Melee DOUBLES registration ends

6pm - Project Melee DOUBLES bracket is finalized and will begin shortly after

8pm-10pm - Finish remaining bracket. 64 singles and Crew Battles will happen is time permits.

11pm - Venue is closed and everyone is gone. People to help clean before this will be appreciated.


Fees:
$10 Singles
$20 teams ($10 per person)
$5 Smash 64 singles

Payout:

Singles -
Less than 32 entrants:
1st - 60%
2nd - 30%
3rd - 10%

More than 32 entrants:
1st - 55%
2nd - 25%
3rd - 15%
4th - 5%

Doubles -
1st - 60%
2nd - 30%
3rd - 10%

As food goes there is a Subway and Taco Johns RIGHT above the venue. There is a DQ, McDonalds, KFC, Thai Smile, and more around.

As rules go we will abide by Apex 2014 rules set.
Melee: http://www.apex-series.com/rules/melee/
Project Melee: http://www.apex-series.com/rules/projectm/
Smash 64: http://www.apex-series.com/rules/smash64/


The venue is Moonlite Comics and the space can support around 70 people "comfortably". However, we can move some stuff around and maybe accommodate more. ( I do not expect that.)

Any chance we could get a non apex stage list for pm? I'm not a huge fan of theirs :-\
Yeah, I might make a few slight changes but most likely it will be the same just to keep everyone happy. What changes were you looking for?

Like add dracs, metal cavern, maybe remove a sky level and/or ps1, maybe let sse be a counter in singles, just more thought into it instead of the not thinking through it and arbitrarily use bottom two rows.

Thanks man! I would be happy to have you all. Depending on the number of people I could probably house you all if you want. :)

i doubt we will need housing. Frankfort isnt that far from middle TN.
Ahh, I gotcha. I was thinking Memphis or something. Well feel free though if you do need it. I would be happy to have all of you there. Do you have the fb event page link?

Hey, since you are coming with friends, would you all be interested in being a crew for a crew battle? I am thinking of a Crew battle tournament which is why I ask.

more than likely that would be good. but we are mostly coming for PM if you are ok with a PM Crew battle.
Hmm... That may be able to work. I will see, its most likely going to be a melee crew battle but it depends on the crew attendance. If the Crews favor one game over the other we will go with the more popular choice.

I might be able to scrounge a group of Bowling Greeners there to play Project M. No promises as it is two months away. :-)

I'm gonna go ahead and subscribe to this thread. It's a ways away, but I might be able to gather some interest from WV.

Edit: Any idea of the number of melee entrants? How many showed up last time?

Melee was around 50 and SS | Soft and SS | FLow were there last time.... (KILLED US ALL) Hahaha.
But I am expecting 50+. I am trying to spread this page a lot. If you could post this on your fb wall or something that would be greatly appreciated.

Ok done! Looks like there are a few people interested. I'll try and get a full car (4 people) going. Of course, I'll have to see what's actually happening on this date soon, but I'll confirm whenever I know for sure.

I have been practicing intensely since May 3rd. I might come if my family is clear that day. How do you decide who gets into the crew battle?
