Oxnard Brawl/Melee Tournament 2
Saturday, Sunday April 11-12 (tentative)
Café on A / Rudy Acuña Art Gallery
438 S. A Street
Oxnard, California

Oxnard was a huge success last time around, and people have been wondering when the next one will be. Well, we now have a tentative date for it, and we want to see what people have to say about the following changes:

1. Registration
Singles - $5
Doubles - $10
Venue Fee - $5 (one time)

2. Scheduling
Brawl Singles and Doubles (Saturday, April 11th)
Melee Singles and Doubles (Sunday, April 12th)

3. Side Stations
Both Street Fighter 4 and Super Turbo HD Remix will be out on Xbox 360 and PS3 by then. Not only will we need at least one of these games on at all times, we may even consider holding tournaments for them if there is enough interest.

4. Food

5. Raffle Prizes

We are most interested in running quality tournaments, so if you went to the first Oxnard, please let us know what we can improve upon. Otherwise, just tell us what you would like to see for this one.

treating melee and brawl equally.

 

[Shmooguy]

[Gishnak]

I'm in. But let's do this like 3 times from now until April, and then do it in April again.

This is the only tourney venue that's fewer than 3 hours away from me, let's keep em coming!

 

[The Great Leon]

ahahaha i like the way this guy thinks

treating melee and brawl equally.

Well, I've dedicated a day for each game, so that should make the schedule and venue space much more convenient. But aside from that single rule, in what specific way did I treat Melee unequally last time?

 

[NeighborhoodP]

Do you have to ask? We were in the corner...

 

[mio]

Any space issues that we had before shouldn't be a problem this time. And I'll be running the Melee tournament.

 

[Shmooguy]

we'll take what we can get, beggars can't be choosers (its dayvid)

also i will go to this if only to stay over at joe's mom's house

that's worth it to me

ssb64 side station is needed, In fact you should set up a mini tourney for it :>

 

[Lovage 805]

we need one 64 tv i agree

 

[Ultra Luigi]

An N64 station would be great!

 

[Gishnak]

Done. Mio is setting up a N64 section.

 

[Shmooguy]

i'd enter 64

 

[The Great Leon]

i'd repeatedly enter 64

 

[ismokeherbz]

Awesome. If theres a 64 station i'll show for sure. It would be sweet if we could actually get some interest in 64 tourneys again.

 

[Lovage 805]

i'd enter 64.. but like 2$ entry

 

[Gishnak]

LOL, Lovage I'll put money that ismokeherbz will **** you up in 64. 10 bucks.

 

[The Great Leon]

^ best brawl falcon in SLO

 

[mio]

So I guess we're having 64. I'll schedule it on the same day as Melee with the same registration costs. $5 one-time venue fee (your paid venue fee from Melee will carry over), with $5 to enter the tournament. The question is... do I just do singles or should I have doubles as well?

 

[Zodiac]

this better happen

ill start preparing my house for the night b4 smashfest

I just hope some people get sleep this time >.> I tried to sleep last time and all I could hear was clicking..endless...endless clicking.

 

[DanteFox]

gaaaaahhh, meleee.... let's do this ..... 805, assemble! rides? anyone? wooot lololol

 

[The Great Leon]

this tourney is gonna be legit

This makes my day :D.

I vote both

 

[Lovage 805]

naa...just singles...2 or 3 entry or else no one will join
and ive never played 64 on the console lol

i just play on mupen with cuba

 

[rudeezy]

console 64 is much more enjoyable



...to me.

although i do have mupen too

quote for truth.

good point

 

[Shmooguy]

yeah 64 is a side event

$3 is good so people try at least

 

[mio]

Oh, come on... $5 bucks? Most of you who don't want to enter 64 because of the entry fee are already entering other tournaments, so you won't have to pay the venue fee again. But for the people who are pro at 64 and are coming for it as their main event, why not give them the same pot? There will be fewer entrants in 64 anyways, so their pot will already have smaller amount to distribute as prizes. If you reduce the registration then the 64 smashers who may have reserved their entire day for 64 may end up getting 2nd or 3rd and get like $10. That's not cool.

 

[jyuuberu]

But if fewer people enter because the price is higher then the pot stays lower...

64 should have 64 dollar payout lol.

 

[NeighborhoodP]

But for the people who are pro at 64 and are coming for it as their main event, why not give them the same pot?

You made this up. Have them show that enough of those people exist before assuming it. That's the job of a good TO. Cover your *** first. No homo.

That's not cool.

Ahahaha it's not that serious, it's a side event

 

[ismokeherbz]

I kind of agree with mio, I mean its only a $2 difference. However I don't want to discourage people from joining either :/

I have a feeling people that live further and are good at 64 would be more likely to make the trip for a 5 dollar buy-in.

what does everyone else think?

 

[NeighborhoodP]

I wouldn't even dream of entering 64 if it's five bucks but if it's $2 (very likely) or $3 (probably not) I could be convinced.

If you want a good turnout, you'll have to convince a lot of people to play 64 again. If you want the casual player, make it lower.

 

[ismokeherbz]

Ahahaha it's not that serious, it's a side event

It will be my main event.

I know quite a few others interested in competitive 64 in the 805 as well
