THE RUNDOWN, but without stiffler, only the ROCK

good **** plank. thats just what this tourney needs, some plank a-hole-ness. good ****.

ill clear things up a tad. i want things to be as comfortable as possible, ESPECIALLY the OOSers. the last two C3s had witnessed some gripes from many smashers, but now everything is to be run by TA so you can trust everything will be "hot and amazing".

LOCK-IN FRIDAY NIGHT - $5- The last lock-in had everyone kicked out at roughly 7:40AM. i will personally speak with David to make sure this does not happen again. I know i didn't pay $5 to get woken up and given the boot after 2 hours of sleep....well, i did, but my point is I won't let it happen again. This is a great option for OOS travelers who don't want to leave early in the morning. For a fee of $5 starting at 9pm, you can play melee all night and even stay at the venue overnight, just be sure to bring SLEEPING EQUIPMENT!

People have complained about the speed of the tournament, and the lack of friendlies. This can all be fixed by BRINGING SETUPS!! IIRC, C3 has two projector screens, two big screens, and roughly 10 more regular TVs. CUBES ARE ESSENTIAL! If you can't bring a TV, at least bring a cube, because there are TVs there to use. TVs are also welcome to bring as well, the more setups the better. This will ensure a fast and comfortable tournament.

Aho has everything set up pretty clearly on the first page. If theres any questions or concerns, be sure to ask me. like i said i want everyone to be comfortable (except cactuar, because he makes me uncomfortable lol :))

Can you explain team seeding a bit more? For instance, is team seeding based off a specific team that continues to enter C3 tournaments, or how well certain people place in team matches (even though they may not particularly have the same teammate, they continue to place well with others)? Me and Vist took 2nd the past two C3's and I just got 3rd with KM. Would I have to team with either of those two to get a good seeding for the next tournament?

Everyone plan to bring set-ups in advance. If you are bringing a Gamecube/Wii and/or a TV, post here so Aho can update the front page with how many set-ups are estimated to arrive. For those who came to the lock-in and a few hours into Saturday morning, there weren't enough Gamecubes or copies of Smash.
Quoted for quote sake. I'll most likely only be able to bring a copy of Smash if I take the metro.

Fosho, let me know exactly how many people you have. I'll see what I can do. If all else fails, to stay at the venue overnight is only $5 per person, and i'll stay too and play with you guys.

So I talked to aho, and i'll obviously be there and helping, along with waving my Nazi flag and DQ'ing people who arent there on time around every corner.

Teams are starting at 12:00 PM
Promptly.

Registration starts at 11, the tournament starts at 12. Don't plan to get there at 12, because if you get there at 12:01 you aren't enterring. Tough cookies. There will be no "send me to losers" jank either, because that just screws over the teams who got there on time in losers bracket.

So yea, we're going to be cracking down no matter who you are. You aren't special because you're good at a game. Fair warning. The only people who I have sympathy at all for are the OOSers who have to travel 4 hours and get up early to make it by 12. However, at least then they will be able to get home at a reasonable hour if they so choose. Im sure it's worth the tradeoff. Everyone from VA who shows up at 2:30 PM for teams is just pitiful.

Since we'll be starting on time, we won't have to start singles while teams is still going.

Between teams and singles there will be a 30 minute break for people to get food.

This prevents people from leaving during singles to say they had to get food etc etc etc. Since no teams will be left, nobody has any excuses and people who don't show up for matches within (x) minutes of the time they're called will be disqualified.

Ill also bring my vcr next month and record intriguing matches then upload them within the next few days.

The Rundown

Teams starts at 12. After teams ends, there will be a 30 minute break to get food before singles starts. Nobody then has any excuses to not be at their matches on time, so we will promptly DQ people for not showing up for their matches.

Sorry to be a complete dick, but the innefficiency of tournaments these days is just disgusting.
hows that chillin?

FoSho, It's probably best that we just stay at the venue then. If you guys dont wanna pay the $5 each i can probably try to help out, lol. If robin's gone, who is going to advertise/run the other tournaments? Anyway whatever it's all good, people just need to bring setups.

I don't see why you always have to say something. Just let them do what they want. =/

what do you mean "lazy"

you'd rather sit here and try to describe yourself so well that someone in a poorly-lit place will be able to single you out despite you probably staring at a screen most of the time?

i'd imagine taking the 10 seconds to ask someone about him would be much much easier

and redd; i don't care, it doesn't affect me, but it WILL save them time and ridiculous effort. if you don't want to take my advice, that's fine. this isn't something i'm really looking to argue about though; if it were me, i'd ask around, but if you're more comfortable describing each other then fine, do whatever works for you

I too enjoy PockyD's style. His posts are good, but his writing style is awesome. You don't find many people online who use hyphens and semicolons and all other punctuation that applies mid-sentence but ignore capitalization and periods altogether. =P
