Yeah I'll join! Nah, I've just been down here for a while. I'm going back to Sydney in two weeks.

 

[Pete278]

Let's not discuss monthlies here, happy to do that elsewhere.

Please bring consoles. That should be the bottom line. We always do designated areas for set ups at Majors. We will ensure no premature switching. We are scheduling (work in progress) PM and Melee singles at different times that will hopefully mitigate issues but the solution has always been simple - bring consoles.

//

Side note: Any interstaters that are coming that would like to commentate, please let me know. Also, any interstaters yet to pre-reg - please do so by tonight, or otherwise let me know, so we can seed you accordingly. Also, if we get enough numbers, maybe we can do crews Friday night.

I would like to commentate if possible and might also be able to provide a PM setup.

 

[Attila_]

To be fair, PM normally finished after other games because it's slower than other games. Top 8 at miles warehouse took 6 hours. I have no idea why that game is still 4 stock but that's none of my business.

 

[Star ☆]

I'm pretty sure it didn't take six hours, considering I commentated the whole top 8 and I was only there for two hours. I've just doublechecked the Twitch and it seems to be around the 2 hour 5 minutes mark... perhaps you're meshing the Top 8 and Top 32 together?

Either way, lets hope that everything runs smoothly this weekend and nothing runs over time.

 

[Jamwa]

pm took so long because i wasnt in top 8

i'll be sure to 4 stock everyone dw

 

[S.D]

I've seen US tournaments do 3 stock now I'm all for that

 

[Ledge_g2]

Can I still register for this? I wasn't going to go but I've changed my mind.

 

[Song_]

You can pay on the day if needed

 

[Ledge_g2]

You can pay on the day if needed

Do you know if it costs more to do so? Also is there a way to at least let them know that I'm going to help with pool seeding?

Ask S.D, im not sure personally

 

[Leisha]

Its $50 venue fee Gary, then whatever the tournaments cost.

And also I would like to know if we'll know pools before Friday?

 

[Song_]

Will a more detailed timetable be released soon?

 

[joeyjoeyjoejoe]

Myself, SD and Darren are the TOs for this tournament with Izzago with the mad assist. We are looking too get things finalised soon, we just received the finalised pre reg list today.

Darren is in charge of smash 4 seeding
and given he's run every CW smash 4 tournament in Melbourne bar one, he's the best man for the job. But if he needs help, I'm sure he'll let you know ledge.

Also I'm psyched you're coming.

Anyone else who is will definitely be signing up on the day please let us know so we can seed you.

 

[dreadtech]

I have splice with the assist so I'm sure people will feel at ease

 

[S.D]

Schedules will be updated along with pools prior to the event, we're working on all this now.
Please keep in mind the schedule will likely be fairly different to the one outlined so keep your eyes peeled.
Some events may be run as straight brackets depending on entry numbers.
Paying at the door will not cost you any extra.

If there are any issues post them here and we will consider your feedback.

 

[1ampercent]

Who are the seeded in Pool A? Rest seems fine so far.

 

[Bu$]

Who are the seeded in Pool A? Rest seems fine so far.

I assume the top 4 on the list. It's seems like that for every other pool.

 

[Song_]

what pool will people who pay on the day be put in?

 

[1ampercent]

I assume the top 4 on the list. It's seems like that for every other pool.

I'm not familiar with a lot of people in pool A, but If that's the case, then Pool A might be the easiest. (I'm not saying Pool A is fraudulent or anything, but I'd rather be in that pool and get bopped by SD)

is likely that a late reg or 2 will be put in there like mat g or azri if they attend

Jelly of pool C, i want the Mc Cloud pool!

Makes sense now, thanks.

 

[Splice]

Pool A defs not the easiest to make it out of. Hyes/Flog/Star/Touko/Sadistic all got a shot at making it out.
Vlade is from WA, which is why you probably don't know him and wouldn't have a good perspective on what an easy pool is

I'm concerned about Pool C, DomHynes and Dread play each other regularly and are both contenders for 4th seed depending on how good Blue is. Who makes it through pools could come down to who wins the 1v1 between two players who 1v1 each other every week. Moving one of them into Pool D or Pool A could work if you agree this is a problem, SD.

Hobobloke not entering Melee? Bowser is awesome in that game though

 

[Leisha]

This is gonna be a chibi tournament haha. Oh well, should be still fun. Practise is always awesome, goodluck guys!

BAM will probably be the best though ;o cant wait for that too!

 

[Splice]

Where are the Project M pools at btw?

Jamwa is cofirmed to attend as well. This may impact PM and/or Melee pools

I don't even know why I entered Melee, you've got a snowball's chance in hell of getting Hobobloke to play it.

 

[Gatbitg]

What time will I hav to arrive if I pay at the door?

 

[joeyjoeyjoejoe]

What time will I hav to arrive if I pay at the door?

At any time really, but if you want to enter Smash 4 / Melee singles, please arrive at 9:30 on Saturday by the latest. Let the TOs know what's you've entered late. Although I recommend showing up on the Friday night for friendlies and avoiding the queue.

 

[Leisha]

What time will I hav to arrive if I pay at the door?

I would suggest 9am-9:30 latest.

Nvm I got ninjaed Read the above post!

 

[Song_]

Won't be able to arrive at 930 any chance of shoving me into a later pool?

 

[joeyjoeyjoejoe]

IDK, what game do you want to enter? Can you make it Friday night?

 

[Song_]

Friday night is unlikely and I would like to enter melee and pm
Will probably bring a setup for melee/pm as well

 

[Splice]

yo there's 4 guys from Perth yeah?
If you can make it on Friday, 4v4 PM crews exhibition?

would be pretty even due to Dekar not being there + Perth having bowsers super armor and Vlade's Pikachu

We all arrive late tonight so I'm sure it'd be possible but I'll have to ask the guys obviously
