I think the tournament listings section gets more attention. You might even get some US people's attention there.

Maybe you should move this thread there and then advertise the tournament in all the major EC Canada threads?

I highly doubt US players would come to a small tourney like this (assuming we'll only be ~ 30).

Alright so joel i added you and i also added ally to the list. Which makes us have a total of 17 people now. Provided GTA comes with 2 cars that can add up to 27. I want to hit atleast 25 people before I talk to the venue owner since gta is possibly coming. The sooner i can get the venue and a date the sooner i can post it

this thread would get a lot more interest if the title actually had "+"s in it.

edit: and if it was in the tournament boards.

hmm i might have to find people to play brawl+ to fill up tournament spots

i made a thread in the tourney listings

i read somewhere here on the forums that you cant have brawl+ in a title since it is a hacked game and that mlg owns smashboards.

...What?

http://www.smashboards.com/forumdisplay.php?f=221

By the time I posted that link, there were 8 threads that had Brawl+ in the title.

You're not supposed to discuss how to install the homebrew channel. Everything else is fair game.

i may have been a bit optimistic when I said 2 cars. The only person in mind when it comes to driving down there is probably ambrose, but im not sure if hes available/interested. I know we have atleast enough interest for one full car, but im not sure about the other car.

Whoever from gta who can drive and is willing to go to montreal please post asap

Hmmm...

I was planning on going to DeLoRtEd1's Toronto tournament, but, like this one, they're still waiting for more people to sign up.

Montreal and Toronto are both about three hours from me... If you end up going through with this tourney, I may be able to come. Transportation is always an issue, however.

Not sure how much you want out-of-towner input, but you would probably get some Ottawa players out if normal Brawl was there. I can't say the same for Melee...the scene here for that is pretty small.

You might as well make it a brawl and brawl+ tournament with more emphasis on Brawl+ being a main event rather than just a side event. As for me, I would love to see melee there, but I don't think putting melee as a main event is the correct way to attract enough people so the tournament will actually happen.

I agree. Brawl+ as the main event, brawl as a side event and melee? as an even smaller side event? I'd guess it'd bring in a couple more ppl.

hosting brawl at a brawl+ tournament just sounds ridiculous to me :/

Or simply 2 events Brawl and Brawl+.. you just have to rely on enough setups and you can run both events in one day easily. I'd like to confirm at least a wii + normal Brawl for now. If I can get a lift then I bring a full setup.

Edit:

If he can get more people then why not?

Melee wouldn't get much. In FFYF2, BISB, and It's a Trap!, the Melee tournaments were so small. Sucks though, I want to play Melee too, but I don't think its possible to do all this over 1 day (assuming there was vBrawl too). Unless we had a ton of set-ups.

We're better off just putting vBrawl with Brawl+.

the whole idea of brawl+ is because we hate vbrawl. i know we wouldn't be interacting with them too much, but it just seems strange that vbrawlers wanna play vbrawl at a brawl+ tournament. it's almost as if it's like.. a point they're trying to make.

Man, Joel was right.

If you don't wanna play vbrawl, then don't play it.

I don't think people play brawl+ because they HATE vbrawl, I think they play brawl+ because it's fresh and a bit different to what we were use to.

I don't think brawl+ people will be hostile to vbrawl people and vice versa it's still the same big community except some decided to take a break and go check something else.

I don't hate vBrawlers whatsoever, and I don't disrespect them for playing vBrawl.

So then we have no problem. I sorta see where you're coming from, but it's better to host both games and actually have a tournament then to attempt to host one game and not be able to host a tournament at all.

Okay. So long as vBrawl doesn't become the main focus. That's basically my main concern. Would hate to see a Brawl+ tournament have less entrants than the vBrawl side tournament.

Lol, seems strange how much you want brawl out. At brawl tourneys, brawl + tourneys were held as a side event, so why not do it in the other way around too. Or else it would like its a point brawl + people are trying to make.


We dont have to create such a division, dont encourage it please, its not the right thing to do.

Pretty much everyone from montreal plays both games with only a minority hating vBrawl, I think both event should be hosted so the community doesnt break in half. Brawl+ is still the main focus, we probably will only have enough time for vbrawl singles(not dubz). We can have it in the basement so Zaf doesnt cry at the sight of it.

Ottawa confirmed? Buenob, Fogel, Linkshot? OMFG!1111
