2 stage bans

We will be using the official 6.0 set. If anyone is caught cheating, they will be immediately DQed and banned from all future tourneys I run, and my pig will eat your first-born son.

Custom music is fine but I will probably ban custom textures (excluding official B+ teams color fixes). Well, I didn't last time, but if anyone has any complaints about textures, let me know.

Place:


1802 Baltimore Blvd (aka RT 140)
Westminster, MD 21157

It's about 30 minutes from Baltimore. It is a hot tub store, very soon after the Royal Farms. Park in the back. There will be one or two hot tubs running, and you can get in them if you want *not joking*. So bring your swim trunks if you want to. Please be respectful of my dad's store though. He will be open for business until 4pm or so, so we'll only be using the back half of the store until then.

If you need help finding it, you can call my cell, 443-536-1386. If you don't have your own transportation, the Owings Mills metro station is only about 15 minutes away, and someone should be able to pick you up from there. Anyone who wants to can crash at my house about 10 minutes away on Saturday night (bring a sleeping bag though).

Time:

The tourney will take place on Saturday Jan. 9th.

10am: Doors open
11am: Signups
12pm-4pm: Teams
5pm-10pm: Singles

People can crash here Saturday night if they need to.

What to Bring:

I have 3 TVs of my own, but more would be helpful if a lot of people come. So bring Wiis, TVs, and SD cards (no bigger than 2 GBs). If you don't have one, there are stores nearby that sell them. I can help you hack your Wii if it isn't already. Also, bring a sleeping bag if you want to sleep here Saturday night. If not, there are cheap hotels nearby. Google is your friend.

Food:

There are lots of places to eat nearby. There is a Royal Farms within easy walking distance.

There will almost certainly be a Buffalo Wild Wings run after the tournament.

Dress warmly.

[ThatGuyYouMightKnow]

I need a teammate. Pl0x.

And maybe a ride?

Coo?

[Bandit]

I will need a teammate for this. Anyone want a beastly Zelda friend?

[TheTantalus]

I just came up with a brilliant plan

Lets do this tourney, then go play laser tag at XP laser sport, then go to wild wings

That would most certainly get me to attend

[[TSON]]

Everyone play yoshi and pick warioware+yoshi's island

If we have time (and I doubt it'll be a problem), then sure, I'm down for that.

I know he can infinite stall, but really it's not broken at all. He's still very vulnerable to footstools and attacks. Every time Cape tried that against me I punished him for it.

Fixed.

You can't expect me to own everyone in laser tag on an empty stomach.

[TheTantalus]

it could go either way, only issue would be time i suppose

If we eat early enough, that could work out

[Bionic]

/attending

And yeah, gonna be needing a partner as well >_<

[Bandit]

@Tant

When does the laser tag place close?

[Seagull Man]

Ooooooooooooooo. May come if I can get off work.

[TheTantalus]

like 12am or so

[JCaesar]

I'd say laser tag is a definite go then. I'd prefer to hit BWW first as it gets extremely crowded on Saturday nights. Hell, maybe between doubles and singles would be the best time. Then we could definitely get a table.

[SnackAttack]

I know that this is a hackfest, but am I allowed to bring a vBrawl Wii?

I just wanna hang out, and get friendlies in on the down time.

[JCaesar]

I suppose...

You know someone's probably gonna be hosting a vBrawl tourney on this date.
