This will be a lot of fun. This is also my first tournament so if any of you tourny-having veterans out there want to offer me any suggestions that would be sweet.

The speed of thought players have good food as well. there are also places to eat around the area.
if you need anything pm me and i will do my best to help.

Also setups, setups, setups!!! We need them!!! T.V.'s especially it would make it run so much smoother

you should do dubs at 1, singles after,

if you have to be out by 9 you have plenty of time and if you start singles at like 4:30-5 then me, fatal and some others might come out

that sounds like a good idea prawn. i think i will do it like that.
Prawn thx for the suggestion but I think singles should be done first. The fact of the matter is more people will be there for singles then they would be for teams. In the first post it says your going to run singles first so you should stick to what you say or people will get mad. This is also for people who can't find a teammate and don't want to wait around because you decided to change the line up on the fly. Just read my suggestion down below and if you follow it everybody should be happy.

What sounds even better is if you run both tourneys at the same time. What I mean by that is once singles get down to 5 matches or less start running teams because it would just go alot faster that way and it would all get down on time. No breaks you just have people let you know when there getting food to hold off on there matches. I am pretty sure I am going to be there and I could help you run your tourney if you like.

Sry for double posting but I think I found a way for it to work out for everybody. Psykoplympton if you do what I mentioned in the last post on the second page and get started right at 1pm you could have another singles tourney but with a smaller entry fee so that way there is no special treatment for anybody and Prawn and his friends could just enter the second singles tourney. I am pretty sure there are people willing to help make this happen so if your down with this idea let us know. Psykoplympton if you are ok with this idea then I ask everybody who is willing to step up and help run this tourney the way I just mentioned?

Bring lots of set-ups people!

doubles always comes before singles though >_<
While this is very true with most tourneys except MLG's back in the day but he put on the first post that singles is going to be first. People plan around tourneys like myself and shouldn't have to wait because people are going to be given special treatment. An example would be if one of the players shows up expecting there to be singles first and as soon as he gets there not only would the player be irritated that he drove from where their from but now he has to leave because he had plans at 5pm. The player just wasted time and gas just to find out the TO decide to change something on the fly and it's still no excuse to use they should have read the threads because most of the players find out through word of mouth. What if that person never finds out about the change? Then the player would feel the way I described in the example. Prawn will you remberse somebody for their gas they just wasted. There will always be more people for singles then there is for doubles because of the fact that there are people who just don't want to team up with anybody and just want to play singles. Those people shouldn't have to wait and especially since your running your own tournament and it's Brawl. Those matches take very long to finish and it doesn't help that your 45 to an hour away from this melee tourney. There's no guarantee that your even going to make in time or the actual event so the suggestion I made seems like it would be the best way to proceed to ensure that everybody is happy.

Well if prawn wanted to come and enter singles we should probably have another singles tourney. If he doesn't come then we could do whatever.
