That's the thing. People won't be able to play all their matches because there probably won't be enough TVs. My biggest concern is that I don't know how many people are coming.Well, no. I'm sorry if I said anything like that, but I don't think Brawl sucks and you're probably misunderstanding something. Again, this is all about the tournament and not about the game.
please keep brawl. My potential ride to this tourney is a brawl player.Alright, from what I can tell, we'll have max 8 Brawl setups, which is obviously going to be nowhere near enough. As a TO here, I'm seriously concerned by the lack of interest from the Brawl community, and I know that it's going to drag the tournament down. By the looks of it, everyone who's traveling from far away is coming to play Melee. If there are people who have already spent a lot of money getting a bus or train ticket or something, then I'll keep Brawl on for this. If not, I'm dropping it, and while I'm aware that it'll lose us a lot of attendees, I'm not too inclined to care, since the community for that game has been all but unresponsive to this. Not to discredit those who have been trying to make this work, but there are only a few of you, and that's not enough.
So, I need to ask: how many people would be willing to drop Brawl in favor of Melee crews/low tier, for a game that people are supporting this for and is far more guaranteed to run smoothly? I apologize for not expecting this, since I didn't realize that Brawl was dying (I've been out of the scene for a while), but unless people can convince me otherwise, I'm going to remove Brawl from the schedule so that other people who are traveling very far to play Melee (a good number of Americans and Quebecers, for example) can actually enjoy this event. So, please let me know. That means Melee players too. Everyone I've talked to so far agrees with this, so you've got until the end of the day to convince me otherwise.
At the very least, Brawl Teams is being dropped.
EDIT: For those of you who didn't want to read that: Brawl events are probably going to be cancelled. If you want to know why, then read this post.
Lol, I wasn't aiming at you at ALL when I said that, and I sure wasn't being hostile, I'm the opposite of flamers, I'd rather give thought out input then just post random ****. I mean just look at the sigs that shows that google result saying ssbb sucks. =/ what's the point? Also, don't worry about brawl, we usually bring enough tvs. I do agree that people should post if they are bringing tvs (thx niko). That being said, both events can be held independently, and we can control who's playin on what tv for both tournaments. If one tournament ends before the other, we can have melee matches on brawl tvs, and vice versa.
Well, no. I'm sorry if I said anything like that, but I don't think Brawl sucks and you're probably misunderstanding something. Again, this is all about the tournament and not about the game.
This kind of hostile attitude that a couple people have given me is like asking me to drop it.
You could be right.
Alright, I feel pretty bad keeping the possibility up...I feel like I'm teasing people, so I'll just give a definite right now: all Brawl events will be dropped. I will ask nothing further from you, except that you don't show up demanding a Brawl tournament.
misunderstandings ftl. Alright, that was stupid on my part. I'm sorry. Anyway, there are other issues besides the support, which I explained in my last post.
Read my post, please. I already explained everything, aka. ? number of people. Safety is also an issue with the venue; it's not a huge place. It's a big place, but not for this scale. So, if you want me to say it like this, then I need to choose one, and I'm choosing the one that's letting me know everything.
I've apologized several times already. Like I said so many times, I didn't want to do this. Would you rather have just come and had it be a huge failure? I saved you a lot of money and time by telling you not to come. I'm experienced in the world of tournaments, and I know what would have happened. Quite frankly, I think it's rather arrogant to demand an apology like that, considering much of the Brawl community thought they could just show up, and because I already apologized several times. That just tells me you didn't take the time to read my posts thoroughly, which is disappointing in itself.
I don't think the Brawl community will want me to. Sorry, but I'm not part of it and I shouldn't try to get in on it for that reason. It was irresponsible of me to assume I could do Brawl when I know nothing about you guys, or about the game.
Didn't you read anything? It's because the Brawl community didn't post, so I didn't know how many people were coming. There's a limit to how many people can be in the building, and I was sure that it would be exceeded and that it would run overtime due to lack of support (I mean, even if people say there will be setups, they haven't told me who or what or how many). So, it got dropped.
There were between 90 and 100 people that day. This time, there would have been possibly 50 more that day. Last year, it wasn't a problem because the attendee list was so much smaller...I mean, I didn't have to cap it off. I think it got up to 60 or 70, that's it, so I knew we could handle the extras that would inevitably come.
When did they post?
