After looking it up on mapquest, I can confirm that I will be attending this. After all, I think this is the Inland Empire's first tournament so I gotta represent the homeland.

Are you serious!? There are LOT of smashers in this area. I'm surprised I'm the one to throw the first inland empire tourney. Interesting...

We are going to run seperate brackets. We never use the gamecube tournament mode in tournaments.

Hopefully people will be seeded.

Do you accept anyone that may come late? I have a orthodontist appointment at 2:00, so I may come a little bit late... Is that okay? I pray that it won't take long >_<

nah dude, I really dont think you should have people draw numbers. I dont know but, to me that seems a little amateur. You should just make the bracket and seed the select few that deserve to be seeded. That to me sounds like a much better idea but, then again its your tournament, I'm just giving suggestions.

Around what time do you expect to arrive at the location?
Hmmm it depends on many factors regarding the orthodontist. I think I will be at the tourney at least before the singles matches start, is that fine?

What my brother means is that if you randomly place people in the brackets by drawing numbers, you are going to end up with inaccurate results. Lets say the random brackets cause the #1 player there play vs the 2nd best player in the first round. 1 beats 2, so 2 gets a low placing even though he is second best. And now that 2 is out of the way, the person who is 12th best ends up getting 2nd because of easy brackets.

Get what i mean?

Money tournaments should work to make sure the deserving players get the winnings. Ideally, the 1st,2nd, 3rd, and 4th best should get 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th respectively. If someone who isn't seeded beats the 2nd best in the brackets we call it an upset victory, and that player deserved his spot.

Do you see why things should be done this way? It's your tournament, but its a good suggestion, trust me.

well you have to start somewhere, if you go to a lot of tourneys and do really good, and ppl see that your good, youll get good seedings, but if its like your first tourney and nobody knows you, youll just have to show how you do in the tourney so you can get seeding next time..

This tournament was bigger than I expected. All 3 of SoCal's top Peach Players were there. And all 3 of them were in the top 4, yet none of them placed first. That's because Hugs, aka the future 3rd best player in California (3rd to Ken and Isai) took first place.

This was a very fun tournament. I enjoyed every doubles match I had, and look forward to the next one. I only wish I had stayed for the singles. Just posting my thanks to the host for a great tournament.
