Good billfest as usual.

Still pissed that I only got 7$ and I was supposed to get 14.

Not cool Bill.
I hope your not serious. I lost a lot of money this tourney and with the exception of you getting 12 instead of 18 (that was the actual numbers) I am the only person bearing this lose. Even Alex the other TO is not bearing any of it.

edit: I apologize if I am being mean. I am just pissed.

This is Bill, I didn't realize I was on Alex's account.

Na you said you gave me 12 but you handed me a 5 and 2 1's

At least hand me what you said you were giving me.

If you said 7 then fine. I don't really mind but it was a bit of a surprise when I actually looked at what you handed me.

w/e bro.

EDIT: If it was a honest mistake and you men't to give me 12 then its fine.

Look, all of this is just stemming from some lost money. If you make your money back and charge a door fee, then you can profit and there will be no more monetary worries, just as there were none before this Billfest or any NC tourney in memory. You have a great thing goin here Bill, and it would be a crying shame to lose it over one petty act of greed that caused an unfortunate chain reaction such as this. We can get through this bro. Trust me.

Peepee, if he keeps hosting tournaments I can guarantee you this won't be the last time something happens to the money, stuff, or the place. If **** happens once, it will happen again. Just paying back his losses and charging a door fee won't solve the actual problem, unless we want to do this every couple of Billfests.

Honestly, if someone was willing to steal all of that money... let's just say that it would be both easier and more profitable for someone of that mindset to grab any number of things in your place.

I agree with Bill. If people are disrespecting your tournaments, they'll keep doing this, and it just gets worse. Billfests were awesome, but we need to stop being selfish and realize that hosting the tournaments is still a huge effort even without any losses or mishaps. Asking for him to take our money and keep hosting is a bit selfish.

I was probably too mean here, and I don't really mind people trying to support Bill and then try to work out more Billfests, but really, you can't fix it.

The problem can easily be fixed by having someone in charge of money, and perhaps too many snacks were purchased to begin with. The first bag of chips I got, I tried to give the money to Bill and he told me about the money box, and I thought to myself "****... someone could easily.. nahhh, no one here would do that". Obviously I was wrong, but still, all money used to make any kind of purchase or cover any kind of fee should be in a trusted person's pocket at all times. Bill has every right to not hold any more tournies, however, there are definitely preventative measures that could be taken to ensure something of this sort doesn't happen again. BILL I WILL BE YOUR OFFICIAL BILLFEST SECURITY GUARD! It'll give me a reason to act my age (which I plan to do at future Billfests if they continue lol sorry bro)! I'll support any decision you make but just keep what I said in mind.

So then, everytime it happens at a tournament, we just quit? I don't like it that one selfish guy has reduced us to this silly arguing.

Just tell me this, if we relocate billfests, and someone steals there too, what then?

Why don't we just work through it then? If it happens somewhere else, who's to say that similar occurences won't happen?

So, lay it out for me. What have all of the negative effects of this been?

Hell yeah man. I live in Mt Holly, but I work like right in front of Birkdale village. If you have tournaments, will they be melee and brawl?

Bill, I understand the rest of the reasoning with the disrepect and whatnot. Completely understandable... however to get mad at Alex isn't really fair. You're asking for a donation pretty much. It's not his fault that you lost money out of other people stealing so you shouldn't be upset with him. If he wants to help you out, he can and it would be nice... but he's not obligated to at all.

If I were you, I'd be pissed as **** at the whole situation too though.

Don't let the stolen money ruin such a good thing. Billfests are one of the greatest experiences ever. I've never missed one and they've all been amazing. Don't take those away from the community.

1. host another billfest
2. charge a door fee
3. ????
4. profit

To a certain extent I agree but it is his tournament also. I am one of two TO's in this scenario yet I lost money on the day (even though I placed in two events) and he gained quite a bit.

Either way I am done talking about this. I am just saying mean things I will regret later (and have already begun to). I shouldn't have even brought up this thing between me and Alex, this isn't the place and it was immature of me.

Ace, thanks for coming out and telling me. I knew that was the case but I needed to hear it from someone I respect.

Bill, you are the man. I believe I am not alone in saying that you make Ghandi look like a child pornographer.

EDIT: update! Rawfuls is alive :chuckle:

That's a line from SNL when Will Ferrell is impersonating "Inside the Actor's Studio with James Lipton" lol. But in this case, it was true, so I had to use it.

I'm not going to speak for Doug, I just think he rearranged his priority list at some point Friday night/Saturday morning, and in the end, melee was not #1. lol

Edit: guess I never really answered the question, he went home.

Talked it over with Alex there will be more billfests (keep the names coming Ace), there will be a door fee, I am still pissed but I'll get over it. Expect a discussion topic soon so that we can all agree on some details (e.g. brawl before melee?).
