I've decided to go to this tournament, I'm praying that all my fellow competitors are amateurs who are worse than me at the game, though.

First forum post!
I might go with my friend Drew. Gonna take the train if I do.

edit: Drew can't go, his parents won't let him, even with one of my parents there (his are busy this weekend).

Hope to see you all there! Rules say you can't lineup until 9am but I'm sure they'll be lenient about it. I'll be there somewhat early, to ensure my spot!

Hey PotentZero! It's me, Mr. Snorlax1986 aka "JohnJohn"! That was a good set of matches. As I said in my GFAQs PM, let's communicate here (on in PMs on this board) if you wanna discuss the results of the matches (or continue with the training.)

Missed it by that much.. I got there at 745am, and was 73/74 in line : /
Damn Nintendo reps didn't even care about people lining up before 9. And there was an influx of people there at correct time...

Got to the final round using OP Bowser but ended up getting third. Still much farther than I thought I'd get.

I was there and I wasn't able to get in the tournament, but I stuck around to spectate for a little while. I was able to to take many pictures of the people who were in line with me and during the tournament! I'll upload them when I have them ready.

Edit: Okay, here are the pictures!
