Update of this Friday's schedule for everyone! Be ON TIME PLEASE!
THE ROBOCOP PRE-PARTY - DAY ZERO INFORMATION
Day Zero (Friday) will feature a bevy of social events for Smashers to meet up and basically own this town for a day.
EVENT A: DODGEBALL (FRIDAY, 1.00PM)
Dodgeball: Meet at Flinders Street Station under the clocks at 1pm Friday. To avoid the abrupt disappointments of Dodgeball last year, we will have a FFA event, with the sole survivor winning a free pair of their very own designed Converse Chucks to fit, imported from Venice Beach, California! (Value excl. shipping @ $99)
You can submit any design to the guys from The Ave Venice, even all your favourite Smash characters!
EVENT A2: NINTENDO EXPERIENCE BRAWL TOURNAMENT, EB SWANSTON STREET (FRIDAY, 3PM)

EVENT B: ROBOCOP DINNER PARTY (FRIDAY, 6PM)
Dinner: +39 Pizzeria & Degustation. We'll be heading here right after the Nintendo competition. It's moderately priced, about $20-$25 would be all that's needed for a good dinner with drinks (there are good vegetarian options here as well). I will need to gauge attendance for this in order to make an accurate reservation, so if you plan on coming along, give me some indication that you will be attending. In any case, I will make a provisional reservation for 20 people, but I will expand that if I get more confirmations from people.
EVENT C: ROBOCOP BAR HOPPING (FRIDAY, 8PM) -- OR,
EVENT D: VARIOUS SMASHFESTS TAKING PLACE THROUGHOUT THE CITY
After dinner you have two options. You're either:
EVENT C) Probably wanting to play some Smash -- there are planned Smashfests by various folks right after the dinner, or
EVENT D) Probably wanting to sample Melbourne's best known drinking institutions.
Redact will be hosting a Smashfest, but I will be acting as a guide to show visitors and drink/social-happy Smashers some of my favourite drinking holes (+18 only). The bar hopping tour will include the following bars, possibly more (all being free entry):
- The Melbourne Supper Club
- Berlin Bar
- The Croft Institute
- Section 8
- The Rooftop Cinema
This is likely to end at 10PM.
