I really don't like the idea of hosting somewhere if there is a venue fee. We have a hard enough time getting 30+ people to show up for a tournament-- why make people give $15 extra dollars to some guy so we can use his space? We might as well host at Eric's which is big and comfortable, and does NOT make us pay $35 in total...

:(

$15 is a little too much for the venue fee...

If it's like this for future events were not gonna use this place ever again...

Unless of course it's like worth the $15 XD

yeah i agree. Having the venue fee the same as the amount for singles AND doubles is so steep. i dont mind paying venue fee, like 5 bux. But with food as well it could be good at 10. I think people will be way more willing with 10 than 15 which means more people will go which means more TOTAL moneys.

k well i'm wanting this to work well so that we could get this to be a monthly thing or something and if that were to happen the price would be greatly reduced but we need many people to attend and atm we don't exactly have that

so people just try and suck it up this once and if enough people show then it'll all be good

if worse comes to worse then I will post pone this tournament until we can get enough peoples to come and for it to be run a bit smoother k?
GOOD NEWS

$10 door fee is now happening

love me again please </3

Yeah but that was a long time ago and they were considering me for 8 or 9. From what Tim told me when he was back in Victoria, I don't think I'm PR material right now.

IT'S DAZE! Hope you can make it out to this tournament! Should bring Kuriko, livery, or any other islanders.

Dude I'd bring them in a heartbeat but there's two problems with that.

One: I'm not coming from Victoria. I'm staying at a hotel in Burnaby for the next few weeks since I'm working the PNE for the Navy.

Two: They all said that they didn't want to go.
