Notes:
* Our Second SSBB tournament; however, we're used to running various fighting-game tournaments. This tournament we will be trying to incorporate a melee tournament as well since there is a lot of demand for this
* There will be approximately 8 setups (mixed wii's/Cubes). Recording setups may or not be present (if you have any experience with recording please contact us)
* To emphasize we want more than JUST 4 setups for each tournament. Bring a set up if you can!
* As per SBR rules, players are responsible for their own controllers.

I will be confirming the location of the actual room once i get it from the people that are booking the room... i think there may be other games available as well if there are extra setups... maybe SF4? since it comes out like a week or 2 before this tournament

If there are 20+ people at this tournament for Melee, I will try to make it. I just want it to be worth my time (very long bus ride to and from). Also, I'll bring set-ups (Wii/GCN/N64), but no TV.

It's $5 to enter the room Ryan, then singles will be $10. So this should go smoothly as long as we can get more people.

its also better to register on that list cause CVGA occasionally waves the entrance fee for people on their list and makes drop-ins pay for it if there are enough of them. I don't exactly know how they do it but i was just asked to post the tournament thats all

Penticton's finest!
Oh, no. Kat (vertically challenged) and a few others convinced him to change it since it was interfering with her tournament date. He moved it back to Feb 28th.
