I haven't played smash 64 in ages, you know that CAO.
And the reason Genesis ended up in hotel rooms wasn't because of best of five sets.
No Smash 64 as a safeguard. Whatever amount Shaya has played recently is irrelevant.
Oh, and I didn't say Genesis ended up in hotel rooms because the sets were best of 5 in finals. Only: "Brawl sets can take a long time, if the outcome is something like a 2-1 set win from behind with all 5 matches played." I've seen it happen. I'd rather avoid the worst, but we should have the time.
Oct 3-4 are busy days to book out venue space. Oct 10-11 is free and I've made the tentative booking for that.
There's a meeting on Tuesday which will finalise everything giving people about 2.5 months to make the appropriate arrangements for leave/flights/accommodation.
And soon following that, I'll revamp all the info I have.
