MELEE tournament hosted by festizzio

Yes I realize this is the day after connor's biweekly on the 27th, but i'll still be here so other people should too. :)

prizes are in STORE CREDIT ONLY, i can't stress this enough. but hey, melee is good enough, am i right?

Address is:

21032 Devonshire St. Suite 109
Chatsworth, California, United States


Sign-ups start at 11:00 am
Doubles start at 12:30

Sodas are sold for $0.75, snacks (candy, pringles, pretzels) are $0.75, water is $0.50

There's a DDR Extreme Machine, MvC2, Cruisin' World, and metal slug/bust-a-move, and there is a computer room with games like counter-strike, WoW, etc.

The store primarily sells board games, but there's also quite a few trading cards, like yugioh, pokemon, magic, etc.

if you're really worried about what you're going to spend your store credit on, just pm me and I'll help you find something.

I also really hope that the fact it's store credit only won't prevent too many people from coming. =\

If anybody can bring a tv/cube + melee please let me know, right now there are only 2 set-ups there. Thanks!

garbage. store credit is a joke. the melee community owes nothing to anyone, you don't need to try to extort people's love for the game by saying something like this:

I also really hope that the fact it's store credit only won't prevent too many people from coming, the love of the game and the community should be the main reasons you want to go.
no, a tournament worth going to is the main reason you should want to go.

going to connor's ftw

I'm really sorry you feel that way, P, but don't bring your negativity into this thread, please. People will decide for themselves whether or not they want to go.

Brendan, the name of the store is All Ways Gaming. It's the 2nd exit after you leave simi

oh please. i'm allowed to post my opinions on the tournament. i was speaking for myself, and personally i think it is despicable to try to get people to overlook a ****ty tournament just because you want us to, "for the love of the game."

if you disagree then simply ignore it and move on, but it has nothing to do with bringing negativity into the thread. threads only get derailed when people like you get butt hurt and want to quote and challenge every single thing i say.

joe: I'm sure it could be converted, maybe not all of it, but definitely enough to keep you busy for a while

Festizzio, don't try dropping guilt bombs on those who decide not to go. A ***** move.

I know, my bad. I was thinking about that and i guess it sounded different in my head

Edit: there were just some problems last time with the winner not knowing it was store credit only until after he had won, so i guess i was just a little insecure about saying that. i really wish i could change that, but the store owner is really strict when it comes to tournaments, there's really nothing i can do.

stop being a girl lovage, this isn't about festizzio. the tournament is garbage, so i made a post saying it was. simple. i don't care if you would've posted it, i would've done the same thing. festizzio's fault for posting a ****ty *** tourny imo

wow, assuming the people who are ganging up on festizzio are part of the melee community, then the melee community has reached a low. thr are very few pro ssbm gamers (career wise, i know thr are more pros, but they have other jobs). going to tournies is usually always about the luv of the game. You guys dont have to be d***s about it.

I going to try to make it, and if i do hopefully the melee community still exists (any1 in that community)

god stfu noob, no one is ganging up on anyone.

see what i said festizzio? this is how threads get derailed: idiots focusing on the negativity and not the content. i'm not gonna apologize for telling it like it is tho

I dont understand why people were being so mean to festizzio when hes putting a lot of work into this. Sure people are free to state their opinion, but you look like a jerk for poisoning the well like that.
