[phish-it]

Hmm this isn't too far away I sould probably make it with a couple people as well. Any reason it doesn't start until 7 pm though?

Also, you might just want to make a list of the viable counterpic stages too.

 

[OFY]

I'll be at this again. I won the last one that was held in June.

 

[OFY]

Btw this is when Sonic will get a boost =]

 

[iGamestation]

What time would be best for everyone? Starting around 4? Just throw out some times that would be ideal for you and we will work it out.

 

[C@sH Mooney]

LOL wtf. Cornwall? I had a friend who lived there. I'm surprised theres even a store in cornwall big enough to hold a tourney hahaha

The earlier the better, actually 4 pm would be fine since this is only singles right? Also, how many set-ups does the venue have? If possible we could probably try to bring one.

 

[OFY]

Yea, 4pm sounds good.

 

[SLOWBRO]

yeah ill pull through cornwall is right around the corner from newburgh 4pm sounds good too

can you just put 15 bills down when u get there it would be easier

Last time I went I paid there.

 

[Zro]

[OFY]

I'm pretty sure it's just a singles tournament.

 

[Zro]

I'm pretty sure it's just a singles tournament.

It's near the shed out back next to the outhouse. We should be able to fit 1 in at a time, why do you think we wanted to start after 7pm? We were kind of hoping the the sun would be down. All kidding aside we are in the old firehouse on Main Street. About a 1000 Square ft. of gaming space. Big enough for a modest tournament.

 

[iGamestation]

If you can show us there is enough interest in doubles, we will seriuosly consider it. We want to make these events all about fun and provide a venue that everyone can enjoy themselves in with a little competition and a good time.

 

[C@sH Mooney]

Why didn't you guys ever hold melee tourneys? =/

 

[OFY]

Why didn't you guys ever hold melee tourneys? =/

There wasn't a lot of demand for it, as in there wasn't that many competetive players.

 

[iGamestation]

Remember, it is NOT necessary to pay through iGames but it IS NECESSARY to create your name and join the event. If we do not have ATLEAST 5 players on our iGames registration page by Thursday, this event will not happen.

REGISTER AND SIGN UP TODAY. YOU CAN PAY AT THE DOOR OR THROUGH PAYPAL.

 

[phish-it]

If people say they are coming in this thread, it's pretty safe to assume the majority of them will be attending the tournament anyway. Meh, I'll register on that page if you need us too though.

Murt Murh Murt Murh Murt Murh

 

[iGamestation]

Thank you. We need it to ensure we have a certain amount of people attending. It enables us to ensure a solid tournament for you guys!

 

[Patsie]

I might go, but 2 hours there and two hours back might stop me from going.

I don't know if you should make people register online. I know it gives a good indication of who's coming, but you'd be surprised at how lazy some Smashers are when it comes to doing extra stuff besides showing up (including myself ).

 

[OFY]

Bring Zro if you coming phish-it. And make sure you guys do sign up on igames, I already did

 

[Zro]

haha u heard ophelia, bring me over there phish-it. and if there is teams, u should team with me =]

please let there be doubles... i know at least 4 people that want doubles

 

[mood4food77]

i'll try to make it with a few others

 

[Patsie]

This iGames site kinda sucks a lot, please don't judge whether to hold it off of the amount of people registered. If you don't hold it, can you post here so that I don't make a 3 hour round trip to find out it was canceled?

I'm gonna try to go but it's pretty late-running for me.

 

[mood4food77]

i can't seem to register on teh site?

 

[Patsie]

yea it wont send me an email back

if anyone from NYC needs a ride hit me up im driving from li

 

[OFY]

I just talked to the owner of the LAN center, just PM to confirm you guys are coming since you guys are having problems registering on iGames.

 

[phish-it]

Since the venue is available and registration begins as early as 11 AM, why not have teams at 1 pm and then singles right after? Pretty much everyone who plays singles will enter teams.

 

[Sol]

one time a guy was facing a murt in tourny and he asked me "what do i do if i got hit by an fsmash. i told him"die""

 

[mood4food77]

i'm bringing 2 other friends with me

OMG IS MOOD4FOOD HITTING A TOURNEY!!!!

IT'S TRUE, IT'S TRUE

FOR I AM NOT SCARED OF A MURT MURH!!!!

and yes, if you get hit by a fsmash, you die

 

[Zro]

Since the venue is available and registration begins as early as 11 AM, why not have teams at 1 pm and then singles right after? Pretty much everyone who plays singles will enter teams.

[Pmac]

hey I think i may try to bring members of my crew to this tournament.

do you all live near cornwall? my friends and I live in Minisink, and we're fairly competitive.

 

[Patsie]

it would be much better if teams were at 1, the earlier the better for sure.

anyone want to partner up on teams?

 

[iGamestation]

If you guys can guaruntee 6 teams we will start get it together and start Teams at 1:00 as requested by so many of you already... I will get back to you on rules and price.

 

[Zro]

[Patsie]

[Sol]
