DUDE crews would be amazing. Can we can we can we?? I love crews more than anything ever. If we could take Wes from Pittsburgh we could be the bros, otherwise we'll just have to go with modified Minibosses (blue lazer + velocity + gotm).

Also, MMs with anyone, so far 4% and Renth if he shows up.

I'm still mad that my crew lost the 'real' Pittsburgh vs. 'fake' Pittsburgh crew battle at *pound* 2.

I want to expect better of you, but I know not to
Down for crews but thats it in melee, going for brawl stuff and Im going to pitts anyway for otherreasons
ok, I'll confirm you for this. are you bringing anyone else from the east?

LOL, who were the crews there, I'm trying to remember...

Me, Pocky, Swift, heYniveK

You, Taki, Harm, A-Laon?

something like that?



Also, it's recently come to my attention that we do not have to be out of the venue until 5 PM Sunday. That makes me really want to segragate Melee and Brawl to doing all sorts of Melee on Saturday and then doing Brawl early on Sunday. However, I know this might be a pain for people with a long drive back home, so I want some feedback about this. Here's what I'm proposing for a schedule of events:

Saturday
9:30 Doors Open
11:00 Registration Opens
12:00 Doubles Start
After Doubles Finishes Low Tiers Start (~2:30)
After Low Tiers Finishes Singles Pools Start (~5:00)
After Singles Pools Finishes Singles Bracket Start (~6:30)
10:00 Crew Battles
Get some sleep at venue

Sunday
9:30 Brawl Doubles
12:00 Brawl Singles

Feedback people, how epic does this sound!? Also, should Brawl singles be $10 or $5 entry fee? I'm thinking $5 now cause I hate the game...

As long as people are willing to wake up that early it's fine by me. We'll just have to DQ those sleepy heads I guess.

Yeah, that looks right. I just remember that right after you beat Taki, Evan convinced me that he could take your stocks easily... I think he lost 3 of his trying. Anyhow, the crew battle was still down to the last stock. It was super fun.

Also, the schedule looks good... keeping Brawl and Melee separate is a really good idea.

actually i have one request.

could teams possibly be raised to $20 per team? I hate how teams always gets the shaft on money. each event should be the same $ per person, teams isn't less important than singles >=(

it sucks when you work your way through tons of teams, get 2nd to m2k, and get $15 each.
this is somewhat a greedy request, but i really only think its fair to reward the teams that practice and deserve it over the cost of $5 extra dollars per person.

if not oh well, but we'd really appreciate it and it would immensly increase our chances of coming

Yeah LOL last time I just got **** on by Techzero and Eggm in singles. They kept using cheap tactics such as spacing on me.

But teams is my thing, it's what I focus on much more often than singles. And at $5 a person I kind of feel like it's not a serious tournament. I mean, you spend more than $5 every time you go to Burger King, I think it's fair to spend $10 on a semi-major tournament, so it holds more weight.

Man up!

Thanks.

I'll have a Final @ 1:00pm that day, but i'm working on trying to reschudle it. If that doesn't work out i should still be able to get in for most of the tournament.

no i'm staying home to watch an old man read out someone's name every 15 minutes

interesting side note, it's $100 cheaper to fly into akron/canton than it is to fly into pittsburgh

if something good comes up ($200 or less) i'd probably go, but that's unlikely

(i'm saving money for SMASHTALITY)
