And with the second part, the last spring of rebirth smash event we had was $10 venue $10 sign up as well, and we had 0 out of state players attend. In addition, only of a fraction of the Nortah smashers came down to play, and a lot of players from the U of U, SLC, and Provo weeklies didn't go either. Even at the last Neumont we had only ONE out of state player who came and swept our bracket. Charging higher prices for weeklies does NOT encourage new players to want to play in our scene, and good Utah players are going to show up to up to events regardless of how expensive they are if they think they can win some money. Money doesn't seem to have much to do with whether or not out of state players want to come smash with us, if we want good OoS players to come to Utah we need to communicate with them more. That being said I think it's cool that a bunch of them are coming down this week.
Lastly, if we're going to be patronizing to anyone who's wondering about what's going on in our scene and tell them to read the first post, could we at least keep our info up to date? The last spring of rebirth (which happened in March) is still the main bolded event in the post, and there isn't a link to the next smashers tale's page there either. Maybe we should make a big *** bold and underlined "Look here for info on upcoming weeklies and tournaments" or something.
Can I get a source on the first part about falcon?

Weeklies shouldn't be the 10 and 10 thing. This isn't a weekly. I've been talking to oos players for a while about this tourney. Tim was just slow on getting the event page up. I understand money is an issue for some players. However, its a much larger incentive for us to get Vegas and Idaho to come to our events. It's an opportunity for us to improve at a much faster rate.
Because lets be frank. We are the absolute worst in the nation when it comes to smash.

When's next melee tournament (weekly or not) entry fee etc. Let me know here and I should make it... No promises
it was brought up in a vegas thread. here's the link. i doubt anyone would be able to use that knowledge to gain any advantage though so it's merely a trivial fact to know if you want to be pedantic.
i've been told that several nortah smashers don't like @
Tsuteto
's tournaments so it's no surprise that some of them didn't show up. i don't know why you say a lot of the other players didn't show up. your comments about money are a bit ill-timed since sk92--one of vegas' best players--just started talking on facebook about coming, but only if we can get like a 50+ person tournament to make it "worth it" to come. was someone being patronizing? @
Tsuteto
has had to deal with a lot recently, so i'm sure updating the first post was pretty low on his priority list, especially considering that there are community-updated google docs with all the information someone needs linked on the pinned post of the utah smash facebook group, in the descriptions of the utah smash facebook group, in my signature, and yes, even on the first post of this thread :-p. i decline :-p. @
Tsuteto
is the main t.o. and is in utah for the long haul so he should maintain ownership instead of having it change every year or something :-p.check out the utah smash events google doc. it is probably the most maintained consolidated list of utah smash events. despite that, it's a good idea to join the utah smash facebook group and follow this thread to be aprise of any last minute changes that may arise.

Hey, to be fair, I DID change it often, I was just always like a week late every time.
Also, its surprisingly hard to find good title names like every week.

Do any of the Idaho guys need housing? I have space at my house for a few guys. I'll make a post on their Facebook page as well.

That's the same day as @Ken Neth's wedding event, and I already said I'll try to go, so I'll most likely miss Neumont if that's the case.

Dang. Sorry about that. With Evo being my usual weekend, I had to adjust, and had a request for the 11th already, so I went with it. Sorry for colliding with your wedding @Ken Neth!That's the same day as @Ken Neth's wedding event, and I already said I'll try to go, so I'll most likely miss Neumont if that's the case.

Do we have smash4 scene?
Jearbear357
Smash Rookie
Anyways, Hi I'm Jearbear357 and IRL name is Jeran Kilpack. I'm a smash 4 player, 15 year old, R.O.B. main, and live in Sandy, Utah. Now that school is over, I've been thinking participate in weeklys for smash 4. I don't expect to win, but just to have a good time and meet lots of utah smashers, because I thought we had no scene. If you want to add me on wii u, my NNID is "Jearbear357" and my 3ds FC is "3136-6787-2727"
I plan on going to the S.L,C. Weekly today with a friend or two. I've never been to a tournament before and I don't know what to expect. We mainly want to play in the Smash 4 tournament at 8:00 P.M., however I might want to play in the 6:00 P.M. Melee tournament as well just for fun.
With that said I have a few questions:
- What time should I be there to play in the Melee tournament? what time will it end?
- What time do I need to be there in order to play in the Smash 4 tournament? What time will it end?
- How much money should I bring for myself? do I pay both the venue $5 fee and the $3 Buy in fee or do I only play for one? Do I need to pay a fee for both the Melee and Smash 4 tournament? I don't plan on bringing my set up.
- Do I need to pay for parking?
- Are wireless Wii U Pro controllers or Wii Classic controllers allowed or do I need to use a GameCube Controller? are wireless GameCube Wavebird controllers allowed?
- Are custom moves allowed?
- Is there any time to take an eating break?
- Is there anything else I should know before going?

A: 7 PM is when Melee sign-ups close. Try to be there earlier than that (venue opens at 6 PM). Event usually goes for three hours tops.

A: You would be paying for each thing. Venue is for everyone, where as the entry is for those who are entering that division.
- Do I need to pay for parking?
A: No. There's parking behind Crown Burger, where the laundromat is.
- Are wireless Wii U Pro controllers or Wii Classic controllers allowed or do I need to use a GameCube Controller? are wireless GameCube Wavebird controllers allowed?
A: The only controllers not allowed are the Game Pad and any modded controllers that give added functionality (e.g. macros)
- Are custom moves allowed?
A: Yes, and are the standard for tournaments currently. They are based on the custom sets that are used by Evo coming up. Feel free to ask players about them for more info.
- Is there any time to take an eating break?
A: Generally there's time between matches, or we can tell you how long it'll be until your match. Communication with your TO (Tournament Organizer) is key here. If we don't know where you are, you might be DQ'd.
- Is there anything else I should know before going?
A: Have fun! That's the most important thing. Talk with people, learn, etc. We'll try to be helpful. Respect of course goes a long way too. From how thorough you were with questions though, I don't think that'll be a problem.
