It's been no secret that we plan on producing a compilation of unique materials from FC. Since we will have a unique blend of past and present pros at the event, we have worked with Travis Beauchamp, creator of The Smash Brothers documentary, to plan a panel discussion on Melee past and future. This will obviously work best if all top players are there, so we're planning a fund to assist with this effort! However, we have never wanted to simply ask the community for money, so we have gone through Kickstarter to create a system where everyone who participates also gets something back for their efforts.

Kickstarter creates the best venue to easily share reward information and spread the word on what we are trying to accomplish, so we have set up a project there.

We've received excellent participation in the card game project so far, and we're nearing 25 players who have said they will participate, including champions like Armada, Mew2King, PP, and Hungrybox. The card game was always meant to be a way to help guarantee the attendance of top pros, and we're happy to use this as a means of "preselling" the game. Donating at the $75 level will allow you to direct your donation to one of the qualifying players, and also receive a bonus card on top of that.

Ultimately, we want to bring together the community in such a way that everyone can feel like a part of it, while expressing gratitude for your contributions in a meaningful way. Thank you to all who participate in this, and we will also look forward to hopefully having the opportunity to meet you at FC!

Also, because we were slow, props to chain-ace for getting his own fund for Armada going. Anyone who donates there will receive the same rewards. www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?p=14613013

Up over the 100-view mark, near the $150 mark, and no responses? Wow, I expected at least a few points of feedback based on how things have gone so far!

Admittedly, we're trying something a little new here, but the ultimate goal is to help guarantee some top players' attendance and create some great materials for everyone to enjoy after the tournament. We appreciate any donations and suggestions on how we can make this an appealing venture.

Please spread this idea to your friends and fellow gaming enthusiasts!

This actually does sound pretty awesome, I'll see if I can rustle up some cash for a donation.

You'd probably get a faster response if you said mango player fund+you get some really awesome trading cards and interviews :smirk:
