Ah, thanks for the info. So our subforums have been merged because we're not big enough? I always thought the layout was pretty effective, but I guess we'll see how this new one works.

Also the Western Sydney thread was locked when I posted that, but I guess it was probably necessary, lol.

No its because its a policy change and we're moving to new forum software soon.

Australia is probably the best example of regional subforums working really well, so hopefully we can argue for it back after the switch.

I don't see the appeal of a project M only tourney, when we could just have all 3 games like usual. Not to say I wouldn't come

Project M is soooo much fun! I would agree to just that for a day. =)

Oh this sounds good. =D

Tables and chairs hmm? I thought the venue owned them :o guess not. I could probably bring a chair if it was needed, though I don't think just one would really make a difference. >_>

But you know me, I always bring a wii so if there's TVs to accomodate, you've always got me bringing a setup. =)

Because I thought I remember Shaya saying he didn't want to run one ever again. If he's changed his mind (or if my memory has failed me again), I fully support him running a tournament =D

Maybe I should just go back to my little dark corner...

I don't think I said I'd never run one again. But who knows what I've said that meant to come off as sarcastic.

I just hate everyone and everything a lot, but not enough right now (time heals all salt) that I need to refuel myself.

It's more so just a matter of getting tables and chairs and obviously TVs. Could start small.

Yea, I was curious about the alley as well since i'd heard stuff that it wasn't being used as a venue and then it was and, yeah I'll just kinda echo gords here. :p

Thanks for always finding a way to increase your post count Luco.

Bowling Alley is likely fine. I just think our scene size is too small right now for using a place which is strictly after a profit.

i agree with you shaya about the bowling alley and our scene size.

So whats with this other joint, like where is it, how much and what we need.
I would be willing to help out if it means getting things rolling again. maybe a convo over skype/msn would be better to discuss these things though.

Hi all,

If any Sydney tournaments are held I have a couple of friends that would be interested in attending.

I shall be watching this thread for a while hoping something happens!

Cheers

Toby left, so we lost the enthusiasm of 6, 7 or so people from the eastern suburbs of Sydney.

S.D left, so we lost the 5+ consistent people from the hunter.

Luke left, so we lost the 5 sometimes a lot more people from ACT.

Pillars of the scene hold things together!

But do numbers count that much? Would Ted or someone be more inclined to organise a tournament (which is what we're talking about) if there were more people?

It's up to TOs rather than numbers imo.

TOs would be more motivated to organise things if more people came to them. there is more enjoyment at tournaments the more people/competition are present. tell me what competition ted has at tournaments these days

Come back 2 years ago FinXx. Tournaments every month.

What happened to you Sydney?
Aw dude, I can't believe I missed out on so much. This needs reviving!

I'd bring at least two others with me to a Sydney tournament. We aren't top players, but damn would we like to compete with people other than ourselves :D
