bad news people

Only residents of the condo complex can reserve the venue, and my friend who reserved the venue is moving out of the complex before the start of July. Fortunately however, I do know somebody else from my high school who lives in that complex, and I'm waiting for his response on whether we can reserve it. (we most likely can)

However, my friend's parents were sort of upset about the idea of hosting a smash tournament, and he no longer can provide the 200 dollar deposit to reserve the place. My parents have said no too. I'll can sell a couple things I own to meet about half the depost (100-120 dollars), but I definitely need help from others to cover the rest. I still need to talk some stuff over with my friend, so I'll keep you guys updated.

Do you guys have stereotypical asian parents? Because unless we ****ed up the deposit somehow, I think we were pretty darn good to the venue and not noisy or disruptive to the rest of the complex, so I can't imagine there would be a reasonable argument against it.

Brandon says there were scratches on the floor from moving the TVs and tables. :(

Next tournament, I may be running it but I may need Miles, Chris, and Sheridan to back me up since I am pretty much like Andrew who never ran a Melee tournament before. :( I will be on 7-10 actually.

no there was a 60 dollar rental fee. the 200 refundable deposit was something different tho. My friend who reserved the venue for the tourney has literally disappeared tho: hes not picking up his cell, hasn't been online, and I haven't seen him in person either.

Are you asking if the tournament host profited from the excess venue fee? :confused:

Also Andrew, my laptop is down and I don't have AIM on my computer that I am using right now so if you need to tell me important then just PM me on SWF. :)
i think every post you make has smiley faces in it

Actually the 1667th post in the SB / SLO Smash thread was my post and it didn't have a smiley face in it. ;) Also the next Melee tournament in West San Jose will probably be 7-17-10 so that is probably when you will get you Melee disc back. :( Do you have access to a Melee set up somewhere right now to practice? :confused:

Unless somebody can come up with a personal check for 200 dollars (the venue deposit), theres no way this is happening at all. This is cancelled as of now until somebody contacts me with the fee.

This tournament will be cancelled unless we can come up with the deposit. Andrew says it will be a hassle to get multiple people to pitch in money to give it to one person. :(

EDIT: Andrew already said it in two posts above me. I was creating this message while AIMing a lot of people so I didn't resume this post until after he posted. :(

1. if cgc is 7/17 you're not going to get anyone at this tournament.

1. the venue is booked for all saturdays up to the 3rd of july
2. BIO in SF is on the 10th I think
3. What the dude above me said - if cgc is on the 17th nobody is gonna come to this
4. Good S*** German is on the 24th
5. I'm gone the rest of july and the first week of august

Its really too much of a hassle to organize another tournament. Besides, there are a ****load of other tournies happening in July anyways. Sorry to the locals who can't make those tournies.

Are you getting my AIM messages? Your AIM is set to mobile so my messages should get sent to your cell phone but I sent you two messages but you have not responded yet. Do you want to carpool with us to CF 8? You would be expected to pitch in gas money though. ;)

Also when do you want to have the Smashfest? What part of San Jose are you in? Can you host? :confused:

Miles and Miguel, are you coming to this?

San Jose Carpool list confirmed:
me
Josh
Jon

When is the smashfest? A friend of mine from my school tourney and LAZN100 would like to come.

I can't go on July 3,8, and 11 though.

Yahoo: tythetazmaniantiger@yahoo.com.ph or contact me on my forums (listed on my profile).

For the Smashfest, check this thread or the Bay Area Practice thread. What is your AIM SN? Can you put your AIM SN on your SWF profile? Do you plan on going to CF 8 or GSG? Do you want to carpool with us? I added you on Yahoo IM. Do you use it? :confused:

CF 8 Carpool list for San Jose:
Josh
me
Envy
Jon

We have space for one more person. I call shotgun though.
