What do the "1/2" and "1/3" above the schedule mean?

I feel like NCSU is doing something this weekend too, but it's none of my concern.

I'm interested in this. Looks good man.

Ah, they were the dates. Fixed!

Ack! I was told nothing was going on this weekend. Do you think I should change the date?

Thanks man! If you're interested, that means other people will come as well. You're a Smash magnet.

Just wait until someone posts about it. Jon or Keith or CT, one of them will probably let you know if there is a conflict, and you guys can work it out.

Honestly, we're booked from the 23rd through Pound 4 with tournaments of some form(at least now for sure). I don't think, the way your thing is set up, that there will be big issues though.

Haha it's not me going, it's NC. I'm just the first person to get here. =p

I've been bugging JMatt to hold a tourney for months, but he kept having john after john. I haven't been able to make it out to the bi-weeklies and such because work johns suck. Gotta make that money, though.

If all this works out, I look forward to gettin some friendlies in with ya, PP. My Ganon's itching to get some super pro experience. :p

Scheduling ours for the 9th (so far). No conflict.

Under the impression that since CT and I are notoriously lazy that Jon? will have take up the bat as primary TO for this one. As usual, I generally just reserve the venue and equipment lol. Speaking of which, I should probably get around to doing that.

I meant as far updating the thread, running TiO and keeping track of cash. Wait, that's pretty much all there is to it. Lol.

EDIT: I might actually make it to this. Haven't decided. Probably if I can get some NCSU people to come with so I can split gas.

EDITEDIT: Lol, I just realized that I will not have played any Smash at all in about a month in a half by the time I go to this tourney. Epic lolfails incoming. Probably just going to show up for B+, just because I probably won't even remember how to L-cancel by then x_x.

I should be at this as long as I'm back from the Caribbean in time. @_@

Also, B+ probably won't be big enough as it's own day, probably should be a side tourney on saturday.

JMH, did I ever get around to playing you at drunken billfest?

I was drunk, so I don't really remember very specific things. But I don't think I played you at all. lol.

WE WERE SUPPOSED TO SAMUS DITTO.

Holy **** my brain.

I might come to this. Kevin, are you going? I'd need a ride... (and count Eddie in with me). ;) Or Cam, if you're still in Greensboro by this, we should get a road trip going with all of us.

Adam, at our next tourney we should team, whenever that may be

You're gay for taking Adam. =p I never get to team with him.....

I'm pretty sure I'll be at this. Twitch will be teaming with me. I can probably pick you and Eddie up too(do you guys think you could meet in one place for an easier pick up?).

I've been trying to team with Adam since a Billfest like, last year. We'd ****.

If you pick us up, we'll meet in one place like usual. I appreciate it. If Cam wants to drive to this then we'd probably just go with him, but don't count us out until we know fasho.

No duh you guys would **** lol. Making it a frequent thing would make me very =( though.

Alright, just lemme know. I'd like to get some advance notice so I can see who else I could pick up on the way otherwise.

I'd like to point out again that if B+ is on it's own day, no one will probably show up. I'd come for just B+, but I don't think the community for it is strong enough yet for it to get its own day. I personally think that starting Brawl before melee is over is the best idea. This is what I was going to do if I hosted at my dad's house. The people who enter each tournament are separate enough, that not too many people would be affected heavily from having to play both games. Then run B+ later after Melee and Brawl are about to finish. The only weakness of this method is it requires that you have sufficient TVs to support both games at the same time. I'm assuming you guys have some tvs at the lan center. Either way, I can bring 2-3 tvs with me.

Also, if Greensboro is on the way, I can pick you guys up if you help with gas$. My cruise is supposed to finish on the 1st, so I have to make sure I'm back in NC in time to come to this. @_@

I thought this was Melee and Brawl+ only, karn. No Brawl. Running only Melee and B+ after should work out just fine if we all cooperate like good NC smashers

OH! @_@ For some reason I thought we were doing all three. Yeah, we definitely don't need three days, then.

JMH, I suggest making this a one day tourney and have it start at 1PM rather than 2PM. Plus, if you need we can all help to make sure things run smooth enough so both can fit in one day. We've done this plenty of times in one day with all types of venues and varying amounts of people. Also, how many set-ups will you need/have? I may be able to help bring one, but no promises.
