Well, you had all that information in the thread, Mike. Durand was going to the twins' place, and Alex wasn't coming, so the only Melee player you could have expected was Jon, and it sounds like you're lucky he showed up. But would playing Brawl really have been worse than playing Melee 1-player, or were you just trying to make a point?

Were those two big dumb guys there? The ones who insisted on team attack off last time and thought I was an *** when I quit a Rumble Falls match?

So Jew Rag, have you thought about a location for "SMYM?" And do you guys know what you're gonna do about housing? I'm done housing people, and usually there is an expectation of at least some free housing.

Colin and Jay weren't there, there was some other guy that kept insisting on items on and eventually got us to play with FSs for a while, and with random characters.

Another wii might have been nice, then we could've split up the 7 people into two. As it is, I was happy with switching out around the one Brawl TV, it worked out okay enough.

brickman, i can make you a blue and orange one if you promise to pay me back for buying a new controller from gamestop...or I could just use our RSO fund money

also, we dont have an orange color so I would have to put on red and yellow and hope they mix

I don't know why we made those people pay in the first place, but I think they would be very happy to find out that their money had provided Eric with a fancy troll. But Eric, wouldn't you rather have Jew colors?

Not that I know what Jew colors are.

Andy, you mean mean man. We collected money so that I could get hotel lodging and first class trips to tournaments that I will lose in, not new controllers, I already have 7.

In any case, I don't really need a new controller, I just need to know that Durand, Jon, and Matt signed the god **** non-discrimination form, and if they haven't got on that ****. We need to actually put the money we collected into an account, it doesn't seem very right to have all that cash hanging around, and I don't support spending on myself or any of you kids quite yet.

With emphasis on the quite yet.

So we got the large room upstairs for February 7th...this room is much nicer than the downstairs one because you can move crap whereever you want, it also has a huge projector screen on the stage

Every saturday was booked until at least january so this was about as soon as we could get it...she said the downstairs room is no longer available to rent

What should we do for entry fees? She said we need to pay at least 50$ for renting the room...

Also Durand make sure to update your thread with info

$10 singles

$20 teams

Congrats to everyone who was involved in getting the room.

Still, I am going to be a big pain in the *** and tell everyone to call joey so that you can sign the non-discrimination form.

call him today, let him know who you are and let him know you want to sign the form

his number is 847 373 0151.

Awesome job with the room, now its time to work out the details.

Getting televisions, cubes, and housing for the people of Iowa, Missouri, Indiana, Wisconsin and Illinois.

matt, his number is 847 373 0151, give him a call and ask to get it. Make sure jon gets it as well, I'm not sure if Durand has signed it today or not. Call and make sure

matt give me your #, I think you the only person who's number I don't have.

I don't suppose anyone has a bullhorn? Maybe I'll rent one and reimburse myself from the venue fees.

No yelling the way I always end up doing, not at a big tourney like this.
