Hello Everyone,

My name is SoulPech (Colten) I will be the main TO for this series. I have been TO'ing since 2013 and I've helped cultivate the PM smash scene with @Juushichi The main purpose for this TO series is to encourage newcomers and current players to play more in hopes to get better. This will primarily be those who are not Top 10 in the PR. I have a sheet and have a list of players who will qualify/not qualify for the event. I'll list the names who do not qualify. This is gonna be a lot of fun!

SETUPS:
Please,Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Bring setups! This is one of the biggest individual factors that can make or break a smooth tournament! Less setups = Less tourney matches that can be played at once = Longer, more dragged out brackets = you are waiting more to play = less friendlies you can play = you will be sitting around longer doing nothing = NOT FUN!
THANK YOU AND BEST OF LUCK!



WHEN:
This will be a Monthly series. Please check out the date in the Title. Consensus with the group will be on Tuesday on off week of the Smash @ Packrat Series!

WHERE:
Packrat Comics
3864 Lattimer St, Hilliard, OH 43026. It's in a pocket area with a pizza place (which is amazing) (Pizza Place closed on Tuesdays) and a bar. It is near Walgreens on the opposite side.

FOOD:
There is no food served at the venue, but there are some other places to get food, like pizza and fast food joints in driving distance (Dairy Queen is a walk away)

PARKING INFO:
There is plenty of parking in front of the building. You can drive to the back of the building to load/unload. You can park literally inches away from the door (find the door labeled 3862). once you do please park in the front or in the parking lot behind the building to allow other people to use the loading area.

PRICE:
$2 Venue Fee
$5 Project M singles
$5 Smash 4 Singles


WHY IS THERE A VENUE FEE: 2 Dollars, 2 Reasons

1) To help pay for the increasing electric bill for using up electricity at their building
2) To help support Columbus Smash and increasing the scene.


SCHEDULE: (Note that this is the tentative schedule!)
6:00pm - Friendlies and Fun
6:55pm - Project M Registration
8:00pm - PM Singles Bracket Begins
12:00am- (or whenever I feel like it) Closing up shop
(Due to Time Constraint, we are just gonna do straight bracket unless otherwise)



If you will be late or have the possibility of being late , please contact me or Alfastryke ahead of time (Before 6PM the day of) If you do not and you are a no-show I will strike you from the pool/bracket and once it starts there is a HUGE possibility I will not be able to add you on. Also due to the possibility of holding up the Bracket/Pools I can not enter you in if you are going to be more than 15 min late to the event. If you are running late, even if you do contact me that does not mean I will hold up matches until you arrive. If you are holding up the tournament I will DQ (not Dairy Queen) you and I will proceed on with the tournament.
