[Azuryu]

We might be playing now in Wardall if its free. Waiting for Shang to come.

 

[slomo431]

You guys should coordinate with the Townsend folk. I just got back from playing there and they were still going when I left.

 

[10th-Karma]

Henrik Lomotan - Peabody

sorry about that.

 

[AOB]

I just hope wiperboy doesn't steal the winnings. You know, back when I was a young'un, beating him was like watching a picture show.

 

[slomo431]

Me and mjn are thinking of starting smashing around 4 today. Would anybody be interested at smash at my place or weston for an hour or two?

 

[_marth1_]

i am, yes...

 

[viperboy_74]

i'll be up there around 6, i'll call the twins

 

[Dekuschrub]

uhh why am i not on the RSVP list...

 

[TheWalkingThano]

I'm up for that. I could use a warm up (aka asskicking).

 

[TIA]

RSVP last calls~

I think I'll set a hard deadline at 3pm. After that, you'll just have to register there.

 

[slomo431]

Would people who want to smash at 4 prefer weston or my apartment?

 

[viperboy_74]

yeah, i'm brinin a car of 5, i know only deku and i have registered, the other 3 aren't on the boards... they'll registere there

 

[_marth1_]

i obviously prefer weston but i dont have a problem going to your place

 

[slomo431]

Alright I'll bring my cube. Could you guys maybe provide another setup? I think we have like six people so far.

 

[AOB]

You guys (people meeting at Weston) gonna be at the tourney place at 6? I think that's when I may show up.

 

[slomo431]

Yeah I think so. We're probably just gonna play til about 5:30 to 6, so we'll be there more or less around that time.

 

[_marth1_]

yeah we'll bring a setup then

 

[AOB]

This thing was run very smoothly. Nice job!
Having so many TVs was also very nice.

Being beaten by out-of-town stinkers was not.

 

[sjiang]

Was pretty awesomes! Now if only I was better =/.... but ahwellz!! And I do appreciate more qdoba thingies =)

 

[10th-Karma]

Man the format worked really nicely. I like the PA system and the computer showing of current matches. Unfortunately I had to face 2 of the better people in the tournament after I won just one game, but i loved seeing viperboy's matches!

 

[slomo431]

This was a nice tournament. Where did you guys get that computer program? Did you write it yourselves or something? That really helped because I never really pay attention to where and when my matches are.

This game is too addicting. I've been smashing since 4 pm and now that I'm done smashing I'm reading and writing about smashing. If only I were good at this game.

 

[Hoefler]

Results????

 

[Dekuschrub]

screw ganondorf...


nice job twins

 

[Kache]

Hey, gotta give some credit to:

Aaron, DK, Richard, Phil, Tim, Yao,
Andy,
Tom, and
my fellow TIA members

for all of your assistance and advice for carrying this out

I'm glad to hear good feedback 'bout this event even though we had some trouble getting everything started in the very beginning. Holding tourneys is pretty interesting, I must say =P

Oh, and for those who wanted to know, the program I used was nealdt's tournament organizer, TIO, found right here at smashboards.com. Thanks nealdt!

[slomo431]

Ha when I first saw that I thought those were the final rankings of the tournament.

 

[_marth1_]

i have the videos from this, so far i only finished one of them out of about 20
once i get them all encoded i will upload them on youtube probably

 

[Kache]

Thanks a lot!

 

[Kache]

Oh, I forgot to ask:

This was pretty much the first tourney I've ever tried to organize =P

Suggestions/comments? (ideas?)

 

[CrimsonQueso]

I really like how TVs were opened up for friendlies. Of course, in the bigger tournaments that's probably not an option.

 

[Black Flash]

I looked at the brackets, but can you put placings/ prizes up anyways? Perhaps their Smashboards name if you can.

 

[AOB]

...just look at which number corresponds to whom, instead of giving the man extra trouble.

Suggestions, Kache? Well, like I said, everything went quite well.

 

[AOB]

I can't find anything about the Illinites thing this weekend. When does it start?

And how do you people find out about these things?

 

[TheWalkingThano]

Registration at 9, they want to start at around 9:30. I know mostly because I live on the same floor as the tournament organizer. The people from SoCom aren't technically allowed to advertise because it's an Illinites event, I know, it's weird. And since Illinites never advertises for these events nor keep an updated website, it's hard to get any information.
