Re-posting what I posted in the FB group.
So I was at my local lan center today, and I pretty much have power to run monthlies or even bi-weeklies if people wanted. Would that fit in the calendar? It'd be melee and brawl, but with brawl's turnout it'd end up just being melee probably. It'd probably be the same rates we all use at GC. Except maybe instead of $5 per doubles player, $10. I'm usually more of a fan of $5 venue, $10 doubles, $10 singles with no pot cut, but ultimately it's what people want. A live stream isn't a problem either. Anyone who came to "Jem hosts a brawl tournament", it's right nearby that location, except they moved across the street. There is a lot of walking room, and business isnt doing great there and there pretty much isnt a problem with other stuff going on. They have 4 normal tv's that play smash fine already, they have tables, but only one wii so we'd need cubes and wii's.
I want a headcheck, because I want it to have similar numbers as GC. There is teriyaki/other places right nearby. (KFC/Pizza if you really want to/Christianos/Jack in the box/BK/Dairy Queen pretty nearby) One thing I urge though is there is no alley or anything for people to smoke weed, and I'd really prefer that if youre going to do that, to do it before you come, as there are many businesses nearby (and cops come by a decent amount on the main street nearby) But yeah, are people interested? Marysville is about 25 minutes away from the new GC location.
The only day of the week that doesn't work IIRC is Friday he said. So if the calendar is already full with monthlies, I'm sure we could even do a Wednesday type of bi-weekly or something if enough people don't have plans during the week. And he said "I trust your judgement, and I don't mind if it flops." but of course, I'd prefer it not

Who hosts tourneys in the Pacific Northwest? I'd like to see more tourneys from this region get uploaded to the ssbpd: http://www.ssbpd.com/
If the tio files don't exist anymore, are there bracket images archived anywhere?

Yeah, I already got them on that. I made sure Andy aka ThePrime posted the tio from our last regional. (Gameclucks) Generally, the "TO"s are Kaostar, ThePrime, sometimes Silent Wolf, etc. There's really no designated TO, we just sort of all show up and keep organized.

Cool. Do they have tio files for the older Gameclucks tourneys?
Krynxe
I can't pronounce it either
I don't think anybody saved the old TIOs. I'd ask Kaostar or ThePrime. Neither of them are on FB right now, but you can shoot them a pm or I'll ask them sometime when they're on.

GC Chris might have the old tio files of past tournies
EDIT: Jem that sounds pretty sweet, maybe even sunday a tourney/smashfest?

AIB seems to have Gameclucks from April 2009 up to December 2011. One of the ssbpd admins was granted access to downloading tio files from AIB so we'll be able to get those no problem. Are there other notable tournaments besides Gameclucks?
Krynxe

I know there was Tukhouse which only happened like once so far. And then obvious we have Northwest Manifest coming up this weekend and we'll definitely have the TIO for that up.

Yooo where you guys at on my question :O everyones posting but not replying to it. Just say it if you arent feeling a trip up to marysville. But if you want a solid monthly and I can headcheck around 20 people I'd arrange it for a smash tournament and such the venue is nice. I better not even hear "we have too many tournaments"!!!!

I'm glad somebody agree. Best show imo. Polyphonica Crimson was pretty decent, didn't care for it too much but it wasn't bad. :3

Lol, yeah I watch a lot of the less popular shows. /hipster
Tbh though, I don't watch like any shounen or just generally hyped/popular shows. I haven't seen Deathnote, all of FMA, etc. But when it comes to shoujo or other manime (romance) there's a good chance I've seen it.

probably won't work. if anything we need a venue in like federal way or farther south like tacoma or something. that would expand the scene more than just hosting more tournaments with poorish turnout.Yooo where you guys at on my question :O everyones posting but not replying to it.

a seattle venue would be godlike tho just cuz of population density.
ill just put it out there, im probably not willing to go to those tourneys. can't speak for others. I definitely appreciate the effort/attempt.

yea i dont see another gamestore tourney series working. i dont think any more than gc and tuk house will thrive in wa. esp with oregon and canada in the loop
Jem.
Smash Master
lol k, guess ill just find another game series that wants a bomb venue with food nearby
thought people would want another monthly so they could play more competitive smash more for money but guesssss not. I said I could host it on a weekday even, the only days that dont work are fridays.

we have 2 monthly series'. tuk house has just been on hold for a bit. kline made a good point
Jem.
Smash Master
you all wouldnt want a potentially poppin monthly on a weekday? it wouldnt interfere if there were even 4 monthlies filled every weekend. If I really wanted to break my balls I could host it on a Sunday after a canada tournament so people could make their runs since Marysville would be on the way home for people, but I don't really wanna break my balls for smashers if they arent appreciating that I'd risk this. Anyone who has used a venue not their home knows its risky if people get out of hand
@kline thanks for the appreciation

the thing is, i know that if we had that many tournaments no one would go to them really except gc. 80% of the time at least. using tournaments aside from gc since 06 to the last tuk house as examples. i appreciate that youre trying to do something for wa melee. you should do that by attending the next tuk house

Needs more confidence there Krynxe. Although I'll admit Roy can be scary... I lost to one at Genesis 1 LMAO. Why is it that a handful of low tiers can KIND OF DO STUFF against falcon??? =(
