My last post wasn't clear enough? Let's try this.
PR folk: Contact me in private (that means PM or some other means) if you have something to say. Saying silly things like how I'm not a man and that I need to do this or that is just screwing it up for those who only care about the tournament.
But if you're going to do it in a degrading way and not listen to reason, you can forget it. This is the last time I post about this topic here.
I apologize to Plank for having to post about this to begin with. Be assured there'll be no more on my part.

I need a good partner for melee... Any takers? Shiz and I got 7th at Apex, and I've seriously improved a lot since then... (I've been playing much more melee than brawl)

got damn
so the microphone goes throughout the entire venue, and not in each individual room, like at apex. to combat this i was considering not using the mic very much, except to make IMPORTANT announcements.
i feel like at nationals when people just sit on the mic the entire time calling matches/just saying random **** the mic totally drowns out in everyones head after a while lol
so instead of CALLING matches i was considering having a computer set up to the projector on powerpoint with the pools/bracket showing so people can see their matches, rather than all the TO's losing their voice or annoying everybody in the venue whos trying to play with mass microphone talk
ideas?

Projector/HDMI connected Plasma screen for showing the bracket image.
That way people know where to look and such. It'll be less of a hassle then just colling them out. Just need like a big *** sign that indicates where each pool will be played.
Ex: Pool 45 consist of "so n so". *Looks around and sees a sign that says "FOR POOL 45 USE ONLY!"*
or something to that retrospect.
I DO WANNA SAAAAAYY the projector will be better since the view size can be changed and put anywhere.
I've been looking, and I can't seem to find the date that registration closes. Can us last-minute-ers sign up at the door, or is there a cut off date?
EDIT: Hah, I would find it right after posting. Feb 1st it is.
(anyone else suddenly feeling old now too?)

I thought it worked pretty well for FC:D. Just gotta have it project high enough that people can see it without having to crowd around

Smashers are lazy idiots sometimes, I'd still call matches, or have someone there to help guide the lost ones who prolly didn't even attempt to find their match lolol

a TO can usually rely on the smashers to play their matches just by group/mob mentality. The issue is figuring out the problem child early and riding his *** to get matches done.

At BTYF we put pools and the bracket on a giant projector. Only problem was it was hard to read so we had to call out matches anyways.
I have a few ideas
1. Instead of calling out every match for the same reason you stated, call which game then by groups. If every is already registered and we make pools prior to beginning of the tournament, then we could put everyone in groups. So when people get their name tags or what not we also give them what group numbers/names/letters at the same time.
2. Slideshow would also work as long as its readable. I think we should have 2 seperate projectors for this though so 1 area doesn't get crowded enough to the point where people can't see or know whats going on.
