I will be bringing a full setup for P:M. Should I check the side event I plan on entering on the registration site if it will be free, or just let you know on here?

To confirm, the only two side events eligible for free entry are Brawl Mid-Tier 1v1 and Low-Tier 2v2, correct?

Last question, do spectators have to pay the venue fee since the would only be coming to watch and not entering any events?

Appreciate you bringing your setup. You can let us know there or when you register online for venue. As far as eligible for free entry thats something you have to take up with xyro. He could better answer that question than I can. For specators everyone that enters whobo is required to have a wristband so they will have to pay.

Today is the last day to register online for WHOBO 5. You have 6 hours to take care of this. Yes you can register AT the event but the venue fee will jump. I recommend that if you are low on money at the moment, pay for the venue fee now and sign up for 1vs1/2vs2/side events at the door (those fees wont rise). You can register for WHOBO 5 here http://airbrushking.net/tournaments/whobo5

To prevent any registration problems, please bring your confirmation email/receipt. If you are paying for someone else, definitely bring it so that if there are issues with registration it wont screw over the person you paid for. Trust me on this, you are gonna wanna bringa thisa.

If you are in need of free or mega cheap housing housing, please make a post in the Houston thread http://smashboards.com/threads/houston-thread-whobo-5-mk-banned-october-19-20th-2013.142123/ the WHOBO FaceBookgroup https://www.facebook.com/events/384791671639249/ the official WHOBO 5 thread http://smashboards.com/threads/whob...tx-500-pot-bonus-bomber-vs-tx-1000-mm.336437/or maybe even the AiB page http://allisbrawl.com/ttournament.aspx?id=14183 because Sync and Esca are willing to help house people. You might be able split hotel rooms with other players as well. Just ask.

One last thing and ill leave you alone. Please bring a full set-up to WHOBO 5. Wii/n64/tv/ssb64/ssbb/ssbm we need them all. Whether this event has 5 people or 500, the speed of an event is determined by the number of set-ups available. If we have a low amount of set-ups, i will not allow friendlies the entire weekend because the event progress is more important that you doing friendlies/MMs. If you want friendlies/MM time, please help me out by bringing set-ups.

Whobo 5 Announcement (2 Day Only Registration Is Extended): I get on my FB account and I see that my PM box has been getting bodied all day by people asking me to extend Whobo 5 registration. After checking on a few things I can go ahead and confirm that I will extend registration for Whobo 5. I can only give everyone 2 extra days so this means that online Whobo 5 registration will END at 12:01am central time on Oct 12th. I hope that giving everyone 2 extra days (Thursday the 10th/Friday the 11th) is enough because it is all I can do. Visit www.tysseries.com/whobo5 to register!

# 6: Pre-Register Paypal Confirmation - In order for you to receive your wristband and enter any of the events we will have to see a receipt from paypal either printed out or pull it up on your phone. Everyone that has paid should have received a confirmation email from paypal letting you know what you paid for. If you have not received an email, contact your payment provider and paypal to make sure the transaction went through. Pm me if you have any questions or concerns. It is also a requirement that everyone purchase a wristband in order to enter the Whobo 5 area. Security will be enforced and there will be no exceptions!

# 8: Money Matches - All money will be collected up front to ensure nobody's time is wasted. If you are confirmed for a match and do not have the money your spot will be filled with someone who does. For the Main Event Bomber Vs 5 Players for $1000 I have a waiting list of opponents that want to play bomber for $200 each. If a person on the confirmed 5 list does not have the money he will be replaced with the next person on the waiting list. If you want to play someone for high stakes let us know!

Hey guys listen, Vinnie is missing two controllers (both were either stolen or taken by accident). One of them was white but painted Orange. It was taken Sunday night around the same time or just after he won Brawl Singles. If anyone has it, send me a private message and maybe a screenshot with the controller so I can have it returned to him. There will be a cash reward if you find it.

You should post this on the Brawl WHOBO thread as well. Hope you guys find them.
