I used to care about getting good and then I realized my basic tactics still worked and were enough to do good enough in tourneys.

I meant solely for our community, I haven't been to a tourney OoS.
I also haven't changed my strategy in 2-3 years, I've literally always played the same way.
Now, I just don't care much anymore. lol

Revival of Lafayette 2 August 16th! LET'S GO!
SWF: http://smashboards.com/threads/aug-...e-rofl-2-ssbm-p-m-lafayette-louisiana.362898/
FB: https://www.facebook.com/events/237389263137237
We've got nearly 50 confirmed entries so far on the facebook group and I know that there are some that are going that haven't responded to the event, so we are looking at nearly DOUBLE the people we had in attendance for RofL1. I'm really looking forward to getting everything spot on for this one, so any help or recommendations for a smoother tournament experience for any of you, let us know! We have about 12 set ups confirmed and possibly 2 streams, as well. This will be the first time we use this new venue (AiE @ LITE Center), but we have ton of options available to us here and have some cool new stuff to try.
Speaking of the venue, here is some more information regarding it:
- The actual space we are using is a office classroom. Once you enter the LITE Center building it is on the second floor, suite 211. You can either take the stairs on the left as you walk into the building or take the elevator at the right of the entrance. Once at suite 211 there is a lobby - the door at the back left of the lobby is the entrance to the room we are using.
- We have access to the main room and a conference room. As of now, all set ups will be in the main room and the conference room will be used to eat/hang out in. As always, PLEASE be sure to clean up your trash if you decide to bring food to eat. We may use this room for friendly set ups depending on the amount of set ups we have.
- There is no places to eat within walking distance of the venue, but a short 1-2 minute drive there is a Cane's, Popeyes, Taco Bell, etc. Again, if you do decide to eat at the venue, please PLEASE pick up after yourself.
I'm super hype for this weekend and can't wait to see everyone! LET'S GO!

I'm glad we'll have a good tourney like this to end the summer =)
As for suggestions, last tourney you ran was fine. Round robin pools would be pretty awesome but that's up to you guys

We'll have to get a Wii U. Then we will be happy to host it.

What about entrants bringing their own set ups? It's a common practice that's fairly established already.

I did forget to mention that if entrants bring their own setups and they are used then venue fee is wavered.
It really represents my lifeless personality and my need to fill my empty soul with alcohol. The tie represents my shackle to the oppressive system. The paleness shows how scared I am to confront life.
....Or I really just like the French RPG Maker game OFF. Either or. Take your pick.

Fort Polk ain't to far from Shreveport is it? You oughta come out to one of these, I've been dying to play you since I saw some recordings of you at the tech Biweeklys.

Yeah I would love to come up there. I'm actually in Anacoco which is a little closer to you than fort polk, but anyway the only hindering factor is how many saturdays I will be able to get off since I have recently elevated myself up from bum status to slacker status by acquiring a job at walmart.

RofL2 FB event page has reached 50 attending.

not to be a negative nancy but do fb attendees really attend things. like i mean that brawl tourney at dibbz a while ago had like 100 people going. only about 32 showed.
In my experience, it's right to assume about half of your facebook attendees will show.

In my experience of hosting LSU tourneys and a few others, facebook rsvp's are actually pretty telling of who will show up.
VVB

I think that's mostly because people just invite everyone on their FB list rather than people who are a part of the smash community. Looking through the list of people that responded, I know at least 85% of the people on there and I know that there are some that have said they were coming but didn't respond to the event invite. I realize that it's not going to be the EXACT number of people actually attending, but it'll be close to it. 60 people responded to LAGG and about 45-50 showed, so I'd say it's safe to say it's pretty close.

In my case, I typically get more people than what the Facebook event says. It's always a pleasant surprise.

Well all we know is that Shuttle Loop no longer glides so far, but that doesn't doesn't really mean much in a game where everyone can recover. lol
Also, it's already been established multiple times that Sakurai doesn't know how to balance his game properly.

Apparently he hired 12 people this time around for the sole purpose of game balance, he had 4 for brawl iirc.
I like to imagine the way he can tell if the game is balanced is by watching 64-man lvl 9 cpu tournaments
