Hey all. This is Play N Trade in Edwardsville IL. Greets! First time on here so just wanted to throw out a hello. Hello! Thanks MILK for updating everyone on our next tournament. It is Sun Feb 15th at 1:00pm. Should last about 3-4 hours, this will be single elimination! $10 Entry Fee. Winner to receive CASH...70% of pot, second place CASH 10% of pot, 20% for the house, we have to pay rent ya know.

Winner will also receive a copy of Street Fighter IV when released. Our first 1v1 tourney has 72 people, hoping to get at least half that for this one.

Hope to see you all there.

Thanks,
PNT

Any room left in your car, Phil? I might wanna come to SMYM.
These should be room in my car. Still have to work out housing though.

Edit: Sure Chezzles, I'll team with you. I dunno who I'll use though. Hopefully it'll be a character with a good downsmash.
And to chewyy, I agree it should be double elim. I also think there should be a bigger cut to 2nd place, maybe even one for 3rd. But I guess since it's their location they get to make the rules.

If I may say so, SMYM and NO KOAST are looking pretty awesome as far as tourneys go.

that would be cool
i can find housing on campus because my friend's friend has 2 empty beds
but if we're doing a hotel and smashing and preparing for the tourney then i'd rather stay at whoever's house/whatever hotel anyways :p
Okay I think we need to nail down who is going for sure.

Me
Geno
Darkatma
Nuris
???

We are leaving Friday night and staying overnight in Champaign. Nuris and I are going to be driving unless somebody else has a bigger car that can fit everybody.

Phil if you're going to go you should definitely enter the tournament. Part of the reason you go is that you get to play good players in pools/brackets even if you get your butt handed to you. I've gone to plenty of tournaments where I didn't make it out of pools and I was still glad I entered.

I need somebody to team with :(

Count me in if you have room for us (have a friend visiting). I don't expect to get out of the first round, but it should be a lot of fun.

What about housing? Matt says he can host 3-4 but that would be 6.

Good news on the Play n Trade tourney, the owner said if less then like 30 something people show they'll do double elim, but they'll prolly' slide for a little more then 30.

More Wiis = Less Time = No Single Elimination = Problem Solved

The Chezzles strikes again.

I kno, fawking work schedules so weird and dumb my manager keeps changing it so much, it used to be the same every week. Now it's like, what? you've worked here for almost a year lets reward you by giving you less hours and a wierd *** schedule that changes every week.

Ill start telling him to give me off on tuesday when hes making the schedule cause I dont think he cares that much, but not next week cause imma probably asking off for kirksville/playntrade

I was thinking around 6:00 PM. We'll have an official practice session later this week yes?

Man that is a lot of people, I don't think we'll all be able to stay at UIUC if they all go. Respond and confirm if you're going, peeps!

Lixi, yeah we should all play either Thurs or Friday night (after my midterm). Whatever is best for you, I guess. We live here.

My friend and I are onboard assuming you can squeeze us in.
