I take back my statement about the venue's capacity to hold 70 people because I forgot about the somewhat awkward placement of the outlets.

And I thought BigD was going to Chile immediately after Pound 5 weekend?

As for the power outlet issue... you all forget the magical invention which is a 'power strip'.

CoD can def. hold ~70 people, even with the DND guys. They have their section of tables like normal, leaving 3/4ths of the room to us. Just bring power strips, and the power outlet issue will no longer be an issue.

The problem isn't the amount of outlets; it's how they're clustered in the pillars.

Try as you might, you probably can't get more than six comfortable set-ups per pillar.

EDIT: additionally, I loved the idea of dual set-ups for teams finals. It's neato.

DOUBLE EDIT: thinking about it more, that would give us 18-24 potential set-ups.

.. this doesn't seem all that impossible, really.

ok could stack the tvs on top of each other. Then just have 2 matches at once on one side of the pillar.

Why haven't I met you? You sound fun. Let's incinerate some "goodies" together at SMYM.
thumbs up george style
Were you at Sakurai 3? That was my first tourney since Sakurai 1 (used to go to the old SG series, sometimes the old Cave tournies, and a few other random ones back in the day).

Since Sakurai 3, I have only been going to the SGs. I am hoping to go to SMYM... but currently, lack a ride, and have been to lazy to look for one.

But if I do end up going, I will be glad to partake in some 'goodie bags' with you. I may even bring Darth Vaper.
