Hungrybox Presents:




DON'T TAKE MY STOCK

Alrighty, everyone. It's time for another Melee tournament, but in a new place.

I'm not sure what I heard about NLL closing down/moving locations, but since their spot is in limbo, me and some other smashers in Gainesville have decided to put a tournament together.

The idea was put forth and Ocala and Jacksonville automatically displayed interest. Since Gainesville is a bit up north I don't see why regions like Georgia or Alabama or NWFL wouldn't be able to make it.

$10 Singles Entry
$10 Doubles Entry
$3 Door Fee


The venue is CLO, a living Co-op that offers a big recreation room and dining area with more than enough room for dozens of setups, as well as an upstairs projection system.


Regardless, let's make this happen! Message me for questions or details.

ADDRESS

117 NW 15TH STREET
GAINESVILLE, FL​

All Events will begin at Noon.

Melee Doubles/Brawl Doubles at 12:00

Melee Singles/ Brawl Singles no later than 4:00

Contact = 407-488-0510




PLEASE BRING SETUPS, TVS, CUBES, WIIS, ANYTHING YOU HAVE!

Will definitely be there myself. Will hopefully have 3 other people with me.

Gonna try to convince more cars from Jax to drive down as well but Jax is real good at sitting on their ***** so can't guarantee anything on that front.

Wait what's the problem exactly? One is a Brawl tournament and one is a Melee tournament. Unless of course you play both... In which case pick the game you like better.

Omg 3 tournies on the same day. Why? wouldn't it be more fun to have one and invite more peeps? What if we fused gainesville's and CFL's somehow? just saying... or someone should move the date...

How far is this from Mobile. Doubt I'll make this one, but if there's a closer venue in FL, and it's not horrible long, I could see myself coming out to these rather consistently.

We've got a car. Six hours is about as bad as Huntsville, so you won't be winning any competition for my attendance over another AL tourney, but possibly every now and again. Is there a Megabus stop and housing in Gainesville by chance?

The only Housing I could provide is for like one person. However, I can provide rides to and fro the bus station.

If you were to ask some other people in Gainesville perhaps they could help you out.

Could probably make it work if you give me advance warning on dates so I can get cheap Megabus tickets. I really don't mind the travel time.

I'm usually always down for a tournament, just not by myself so it depends on how many people want to come with me.

I rarely check the boards at all anymore. I've been playing compeittive MK9 a lot more lately.

so if you need an update from me just text me at 850-532-9666

Alrighty guys, this is only a few days away! Looking like we're gonna have 50+ people!

And local Gainesville players whom I've never met text me each day asking about the tournament! Gonna be lots of people.

Apparently 64 is really big here.

BRING SETUPS AND TVS!!!!!!!

Info on price and payouts:

Melee Singles is the main event that this is revolving around, so it's $10. Doubles is $10 a team.

64 Doubles and Singles is $5 a person and $10 a team.

Brawl is the same as 64.

$3 DOOR FEE is mandatory. It's the cost of the venue (CLO) and none of it goes to me. All of it goes to the Co-op. By paying door fee you're allowed to play friendlies all day. You can't participate in any of the events if said door fee is not paid.

LET'S MAKE IT HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE

Hbox, do you have an idea of when 64 will start? That will sort of determine if I can make it or not.

^ Who cares if you can't make the actual event if you can still come and play friendlies? That's just as good almost. Don't you live in G-ville anyway?

Oh and this should be named "Don't take my stock bro" you know cause the "don't taze me bro" thing that happened at UF a couple years ago..
