it would be good to reserve a spot, to give us a better headcount before the tournament actually begins. there is a paypal link on the first page (you don't need a paypal account, just a credit card)

Can't give you an exact number on how many people will be attending, but we're certainly expecting a lot.

griever, unfortunately, has not been keeping up w/ the confirmed player lists/housing requests on the main posts. sorries, I'll get him to do it the next time I see him.

edit - CGC, i didn't see your post before. Extra recording equipment is always appreciated! also, depending on where you end up getting housed, an extra wii can sometimes liven up the late-night smash matches, though i'm pretty sure we have enough for the main event.

Awesome, we'll bring extra capturing equipment and a camera. We'll try for the extra wii. =)

If anyone living within 30 minutes of Los Angeles could give me a ride to this, I would love you forever.

I'd be more then willing to carpool, play friendlies, and share scary stories.

Edit: Oh, and I'd need housing too. Z_Z!!! Heeeeeelp!!!!

Edit2: I got a ride! :D

Is there possible housing for SpaZtiK and JQWST? Possibly one more, but guarenteed 2.

I can share spooky stories as well. (if that sweetens the deal at all) lol

Hitori- sorry i haven't been keeping up with smashboards, other websites have been distracting me.

But yeh we can house 4 maybe 5 people. TANJ and i wouldn't mind housing Neal and Haze and the others.

We should all get together tonight and go over everything, so everyone knows what's going on, maybe. Just give me or TANJ a call.

I'll have to talk to Neal about it, but i think we'll take you up on the housing with Tanj.

Updated the main page. If you are housing w/ someone in Reno, be sure to send them a message to get directions/phonenumbers/etc. squared away.

Also, if anyone wants some extra friendlies TV's, please bring your unlocked wii's. See everyone at the end of the week.

I gots questions lol.

First and foremost, you guys guarentee 1400 in just singles prize money(which is awesome) but I'm guessing that the prize layout you have on the first page( 1000 for first etc etc) is if no one showed up and entered. So my question is, Do the entry fees actually go towards the singles pot to increase the prizes, as we are paying a venue fee so I dont see it going to that. Just curious.

Second Im being extremely lazy but what time does this start lol! Ill prob read the first page and find it but could you answer it anyways :)

Thats it I guess. O and Norcal is coming :)

the final decision is 3-stock.
the singles entries go to pay for venue/tournament costs. they do not go towards a singles pool, or increase the size of the pool. even with 300+ entrants we would not be making any money, due to the size of the prize pool and cost of venue. the entry fees just help our T.O. cover some of the expenses he's incurring by holding this shindig. ^^

goood to see norcal is coming! sorry you're not staying for both days, but hopefully we can get some friendlies in during the singles tourney.

Hi folks!
I'm a smasher from england doing a tour of the US and hoping to play some smash along the way- been in LA and now San Fran for the past week and now I'm gonna start making my way east

- if i come to this, will i be able to get housed?

As you'd imagine, being on a two-month long backpacking tour I'm on a bit of a budget, so I can't afford a motel room (although adding $5 would be fine obviously :p) and also I'm willing to sleep on whatever's avaliable really. Hope to see you guys there!

Gamecube controllers only.....
my only gamecube controller is a gamestop brand gamecube controller. It has a built in turbo feature that can be turned on. Is it legal to use? As long as i dont use the turbo, not that it would even affect any moves.
