EDIT: ON THE OFF CHANCE SOMEONE STUMBLES ONTO THIS THREAD THE TOURNEY POST IS UP IN THE TOURNAMENT LISTINGS FORUMN. THIS CAN BE KILLED NOW.
Would there be any interest in a potential tournament in Western Mass? I know the scene out here is kinda small. But I am thinking about looking for a venue where I live(Ludlow Ma, Exit 7 off the Mass Pike). I wanted to gauge interest from the community to see if it'd be a good or bad idea, since I don't want to lose a bunch of money getting the venue and having no one show up.
As it stands I know about 10+(Maybe 15+) casual players and friends that would, at the very least, give the first one a chance and play. So that means if people travel there'll actually be a decent bit of unknowns in the tourney. So hopefully that's money in the pot to make it more enticing. And between them I have around 5+ set ups, if all goes well. Obviously I'd need a few more set ups and such from the community but I'm not too worried about that.
Would people have any interest in this?
Also, before the question is asked, this will be a Brawl Tourney. At least the first one. But let me know if you'd travel out here for Melee as well(Roman and Spife I'm assuming will for sure.) As, if this goes well and I can continue doing tourneys I plan to alternate between Brawl and Melee.
The big plus about this is, also, since I'm helping MattDotZeb run Mass Madness now, I'll know the dates for that and will, hopefully, be able to get Mass having tourneys on a biweekly basis. And Both Brawl and Melee will be played continously in the community. Which, imo, is what we should be doing anyway.
(I do not want a Brawl vs Melee debate. I really don't. Everyone is welcome. Friendlies for the opposite game is fine, but bring a set up for it. I have a few commited set ups that'll be tourney only but as long as we can fit it and still run the tourney I want both games there. We're all Smashers after all. Hell my Wii has Smash 64 on it for those that wanna play that too.)
So, would you guys have any interest in traveling out here? I'm gunna start looking for a venue in the coming weeks and figure out the fees I'd have to charge. Let me know.
