50 Terranite? Really?
Yes. From the looks of it, it hasn't hurt attendance all that much. Combining this with the fact that we're doing a lot more than 5-6 events this time, it's okay to miss one or two anyway. The ridiculous size of our region makes it so that we have to hold tournaments in sort of satellite locations, so it's to be expected that not everyone will make it to each one. You can't expect Kansas to show up anywhere near Parma, and you can't expect Michigan to make it out to Lawrence.

i think the reason that people are complaining about thanksgiving tourney is that alot of people visit families on thanks giving, so a lot of peeple are going 2 b with famlys all weak, and can't be like hey mom and dad, I'm going to go to a vidya game tournament and stop hanging out with you guys.

and coheed, I'm not knocking on your tourney or anything, but you shouldn't say you have a bunch of people coming unless the tourney is like a super popular series like tipped off or pound IMO, cause you don't know how many tournies I've been to where it looked like 100 people were going and it turned out to be less than 20, and when it looks like 50, its alot of the times less than 10.

again, not saying your not gonna get people, but don't be surprised thanksgiving weekend if people john out bcuz of famly issues, but good luck though

I'm sorry 5 hours is just long if you are still occupied on Friday. I'd have to look into housing...

This. I wasn't knocking your tourney. But people have family or go visit family for a whole weekend.

That's your decision. Usually OoS bonus only goes to one person.

As long as you don't forget the 15% of each, do whatever you want with payout =P

mw circuit is dead and money is all gone
We sent the circuit cut from the first tournament to Ryan's scholorship. That's where the money went. ~$140.

I still can't get into my account, and now I don't live in the MW anymore =(


Coheed, suck this torch! No, but for real, I think Jayford PM'd you all the info.




And again, I bid you all adieu until I can unfuck my life.

Vro, I'll help.

I think it would be a good idea to try to get VGBootCamp Indy to be part of the Circuit. They will get higher attendance in exchange for helping our circuit.

Just make a new thread and weel make this happen.

I'm not sure how we can incorporate a national circuit event into our midwest melee circuit. maybe we make it the first event so that more midwest comes? MAS already has a good following and that's in an almost conflicting date with Indy.

really, i think i'm just going to host weeklies in the summer at the vrozone and make a circuit out of that.
