Montage Presents: The Peak, Already? Princeton, NJ! May 17th (update)

[Keitaro]

u can always donate the extra three dollars to make it a multiple of 5

Nah, I'll probably preend to touch DM in a fake gayish way and actually take money from his pocket. Don't worry I got this!!

 

[Inui]

Marcel, I'll gladly Marth ditto you. We're going to be competing for best Marth in the state, afterall, since Jason thinks Marth sucks.

 

[Ionizer]

This sounds like the closest one to me, I'll hopefully be there.

 

[Emblem Lord]

Inui: I would bet money that I know things about Marth in Brawl that he doesn't.

I would bet money that my Marth is straight up better than his.

Trash talk, or am I serious? I'll money match him. I already told him I would when he said all of our region sucks except him, Chris, and Bum.

I'm feeling generous.

Gaze upon the epicness.

 

[Inui]

Very awesome read. I knew most of that stuff already, but I didn't know about that third hitbox or the percentages that were listed.

Let us become Marth brothers, Marcel. <3

 

[Emblem Lord]

Yup, sure why not.

Since you are repping him and Marth players are a dying breed now.

Anyway, take a gander into the Marth thread and see my name everywhere.

I must be important or something. XD

 

[Inui]

You're generally very knowledgable about Marth, so I'm not surprised. We should do double Marth in teams against people and ****.

My boss @ work saw Inui's Pit icon and said "she's cute". Awesomeness!!

I love Pit. <3

I just don't like playing as him in singles.

 

[Ionizer]

95% sure me and my brother are coming to this (hell, it's less than 15 minutes away). Looking forward to it.

Norfair is amazing. This is coming from someone who routinely counterpicked brinstar in tourney

Talk to spam about this. I'm sure he can change your mind.

 

[Mew2King]

raise the entrancee fees and I can get out of staters to come

I am not joking either

15 to enter singles and 10 each to enter teams would bring out of staters like MD/VA peeps and Vidjo and NY people to come

not only that, but people would CARPOOL down so we'd get many people for each car ride and we could potentially get like 5-10 more people to come and increase the popularity of the tourney for the future

I also recommend paying out a very very small %age to people who get top 5 so that more people would want to come so they could make some or all of their entrancee fee back.

Example

1st - 60
2nd - 25
3rd - 10
4th - 3
5th - 2

doesn't have to be exactly that but something similar

also, teams should be the same proportional to singles, or at least something more similar where top 5 gets paid but 1st still gets 60 or 65%.

 

[Inui]

I actually don't mind that at all. The only problem I can think of is that it might stop new people from entering because the fees would be higher. We'll probably consider it for the next event, but I'm not sure about this one.

What do you think, Brandon?

 

[Mew2King]

well vidjo told me that he would carpool down with people very highly likely if we raised the price for singles and teams by 5 dollars otherwise it wouldn't be worth it to come down

also from my experience at other tourneys, this attracts other out of staters

but i know for a FACT (vidjo is next to me right now) he said he would really like to comedown if the price was higher so he could have fun and make some money from it otherwise he wouldn't want to drive that far, and he would be bringing other people too.

just raise each of them by 5 dollars and you'll have more people come

 

[teh_spamerer]

:o you and Vidjo would come if you raise the price? I need to come to get Poke Floats matches with him then .

 

[Inui]

He thinks he's guaranteed to win that money? lulz, that's cute. Me, you, Kashif, Brandon, PC Chris, and other good people will be there.

I don't know if we'll do it for this event. I want to know what Brandon thinks first.

 

[Mew2King]

vidjo just told me he'll come down with a carpool with other Ohio people if you raise the price of this

 

[teh_spamerer]

He thinks he's guaranteed to win that money? lulz, that's cute. Me, you, Kashif, Brandon, PC Chris, and other good people will be there.

Singles
1: M2K ($70.00)
2: Vidjogamer ($40.00)
3: Velocity ($20.00)

Teams
1: M2K and Vidjo ($50.00)
2: Vidjo got 9ed by Velocity ($20.00)

Yeah, can't imagine WHERE Vidjo would get the idea that he is guaranteed to win money . He had to beat Velocity in a set to team with M2K and is probably going to team with him for this event but obviously he's not going to win anything

 

[Inui]

vidjo just told me he'll come down with a carpool with other Ohio people if you raise the price of this

Brandon hasn't said anything, so I don't know if we'll do it yet. As of now, I'm fine with it, since it doesn't really affect me at all. In fact, it's just more potential money I can win. >_>;

@Kashif: We've both beaten Velocity before...so what's your point? It's not like beating Velocity is some impossible accomplishment. He's good, but come on.

 

[dmbrandon]

It's a big thing to raise it, considering we've been advertising.

We can raise singles to 15, but maybe teams stays at 10?

I'd prefer keeping teams cheap because it encourages more people to enter. People without consistent and/or good partners will shy away from 10 dollars per person.

Singles being raised to 15 dollars sounds okay. I don't like that we'd be changing our announced prices, but at least it's not last minute. My college friends probably won't enter for 15 dollars, which is minus at least 5 people right there, which is more than what Vidjo would bring.

House fee + kinda pricey entry fees seems pretty lame...

Sesshomaru010101 (1:06:12 AM): brandon says we'll make singles 15
Sesshomaru010101 (1:06:15 AM): but keep teams cheap
oovideogamegodoo (1:06:37 AM): no
oovideogamegodoo (1:06:41 AM): make taems more than 5
oovideogamegodoo (1:06:45 AM): 10 total is nothing
oovideogamegodoo (1:06:48 AM): the main raeson vidjo wants to come is to team with me
oovideogamegodoo (1:06:57 AM): like that's his motivation
oovideogamegodoo (1:07:15 AM): for driving down

uh ohz lol

See, Vidjo only wants to come down if he can win a nice chunk of money in teams with Jason, and he'll supposedly bring some more Ohio players with him.

 

[dmbrandon]

but 20$ will shy out half the people who will enter. I don't want to accommodate 4 ohio players in a money making sense, to shy away the NJ scene.

BLUE NAME. It matches my flower decor nicely.

Anyway, how can I add a poll?

Any NJ player that doesn't come because doubles costs $10 per person is gay.

 

[Inui]

Singles: 15
Doubles: 10
House Fee: 2

It adds up, dude. I know I wouldn't want to enter if I had little/no chance of winning. Also, I have a large group of friends that definitely won't enter if we raise the prices. Daryl, Rigel, Wilmer, Dave, Tom, Steve, etc. are not going to pay more than this.

 

[dmbrandon]

That's not fair, kashif, and you know it. A lot of people who come shy away from teams til they hear it's 5 per person. Raise it to 10 especially after advertising 5, will make people not wanna come/play. Not everyone is as good as us, kashif.

So far, 4 people form ohio have shown interest. That's not enough.

 

[Atomsk_92]

keep it the way it was so MORE people enter

 

[Velocity]

hey i beat him in winners lol. but yeah njs brawl scene is the worst from what ive seen.

 

[Velocity]

i guess if m2k is teaming with vidjo for this I will need a teammate.

Sorry, I forgot Brawl was a terrible game and nobody enters Brawl tournaments except for money unless the entry fee is super cheap. My bad, I'm used to entering Melee tournaments with no expectation to win and seeing others do the same.

That's not fair, kashif, and you know it. A lot of people who come shy away from teams til they hear it's 5 per person. Raise it to 10 especially after advertising 5, will make people not wanna come/play. Not everyone is as good as us, kashif.

Unless more than half the people decide not to enter teams, then the pot size will still be greater than or equal to what it would have been with $5.

 

[Ionizer]

I for one cannot afford to throw away $52 dollars (I have to pay for my brother as well). And I know neither of us will win, but ****, it's like flushing $50 down the ****ing toilet. It would really be swell if you kept the price at what you advertised. If not, I can't come. Please keep the entrance fee at $10.

I know my opinion doesn't matter, but whatever. Do what you feel is best, but I will not come if the price is too high. Sorry.

 

[_Yes!_]

Yes!'s trip to the montage tourney:
more than an hour's drive and $30+ for gas
$2 house fee
$15 singles
$10 teams
$10 crews?

cue the win music?

 

[dmbrandon]

hour drive? 30$? wtf do you drive? A sherman ****ing tank?

If we do crews it'll be 5$ a head.

 

[_Yes!_]

I drive a 1996 Chevy Lumina. 15 miles per gallon...I live an hour up north from rutgers...so if this thing is in princeton it's an hour and a half away from me. prolly more for gas then.

i wish i drove a tank...

Overall, it might be meh, but we have several really good people. If you can take top in other places, so can me/spam/brandon/atomsk/eazy.

Oh, I honestly forgot about you because you weren't in the scene for Melee. Sorry.

No worries. I kinda regret not competing so much in melee but that's my fault :-/
