The Story:

I PMed Azen weeks ago, asking him if he'd consider coming down to SoVa and bringing Chillin and the rest with him.

His response? "Maybe, if more people from Team Arlington come, and if there's a big enough venue."



What we have:

ODU's gameroom is reservable. I'll have to contact an office to see if there are enough outlets/extension cords available to power multiple t.v.s and cubes, but aside from that, all I need to do is fill out a form.

There's new talent popping up all over SoVa. O-NO's biweeklies are seeing new smashers turn up, and there's tons of students at ODU who play the game but don't have a way of making it to O-NO's. Once I start putting up flyers, expect an even higher turnout from ODU.

The competition's getting better, too. O-NO's got VA beach covered, and I'm training over at ODU. I can only imagine what's going on at other universities and over in Richmond. When the big guns come down from the North, I'm sure they'll be pleasantly surprised.


What we need:

As many TA members to come as possible. G-regulate, Tope, and all you other peeps, let me know what's a good date for you all.

In regards to payout...it might be considered gambling to do this on campus...UNLESS we form an ODU smash club and have a small $1 venue fee for "fundraising." We'll just need a staff member to sponsor us. That's something else I'll find out.

I'm looking at either $10-$15 for singles and $20-30 for doubles. We gotta make it worth NoVa's while. Otherwise, I can up the venue fee to help pay for gas.

For those of you who have been following the smash scene for awhile...imagine it. Playing top 25 smashers. Let's make it happen.

I'll add more when I think of it ;)

I say, make it December 30th.

Few days after X-mas, still 2 days before new year.

Everyone will be off from school and stuff.

I'll drive Azen and Chillin myself. ;)


10$ per singles. 20$ per full team.

Small enough to attract local talent and big enough to attract big names.

And maybe Tope would even be willing to drive Redd if he went to Azens.

But that would never happen.

Sounds real good. Problem is, I'm really bogged down with finals and work--that's why I haven't been on smashboards in forever. I'd love to make it happen, though, but it's looking like it won't happen 'till one or two weeks after.

Tope, I'll give you gas money and cookies for bringing Azen and Chillin.

G-reg's coming? I'll PM him now.

If this ends up happening, I'll come so long as I have ride. I'd be willing to meet up somewhere (maybe a metro station) to get picked up.

I prefer lower prices, but whatever. I don't want to be spending more than 30$, but I can probably live with it if I really had to.

Big venue doesn't sound too bad. I'll have to get everyone's input on the prices. Also, this won't happen for some time due to planning and getting approval from the school. Let's look at late Jan-early Feb at the earliest. That way, it's sure to run smoothly and it gives me plenty of time to advertise.

Hey everyone.... I'm a long time visitor of this site, but this is my first post. Anyway, I'm just wondering if this tourney is still going to happen. I read this post a little before Christmas and have, since then, been telling smashers in my area about it in hopes of rallying a few people who would be interested in going. So far (including myself) I have 4 people who are interested. Any news would be greatly appreciated either through a reply or a PM.
Thanks

Sounds really good. I still need to find out some details. I hit some delays with school and all, but yeah, I can't wait to play Azen and Chillin, g-reg and the rest. So this is gonna happen. I'm not sure how SOON this is gonna happen, but it's gonna happen.

Thanks for the reply. Glad to hear this touney is still in the works. Keep me updated if you can as I'm really looking forward to this tourney. This seems as if it will be a rather large tournament and I haven't been to a big one in over a year.
