IDK, it depends on the interest of the Brawl community in this. I'm fairly certain there are people here that are willing to make the drive to play AB, so if I could go, it would be as part of a carpool.

The only reason that Brawl & Melee on the same day is okay is because unlike Genesis, we won't be overlooping the two games. Only one will be going on at a time. So there's no need to switch between and lose your edge.
The main reason for putting Brawl & Melee Doubles on the same day, and Melee & Brawl Singles on the second day, is because like it or not?
...how do I put this... People will...bail out if their game isn't there, and we're trying to make a good profit from this epic gaming over two days of greatness where both Melee & Brawl will be available on both days? Friendlies or Money Matches or whatever else, that's rather appealing in comparison to just one on one day when we know some would only come to the venue for just one day if it's seperated.
That's my defense for the Brawl/Melee crossover in a day factor.
Otherwise, we can just say, "Yay let's all play Melee!" and get good attendance. Then next day, "Oh. ...there's less for Brawl. Buggers ditched."
AND VICE VERSA and such.
If the events overlapped and you had to go back and forth between Melee and Brawl matches in the same day, then I could understand complaints.
All the other fighters are sharing the same days and friendlies and whatnot. We shouldn't have a problem with that either, so long as we don't overlap as I've repeated.

Yes, Brandon is right. I was talking to Mike, and by the end of it I said Melee/Brawl on separate days, but now I realize that isn't the best idea.

i hope i can get into that carpool if the carpool does happen. of course, i'll pay my share in gas. i'll try and contact you (cause i don't know anyone in the brawl community) about this as the date gets nearer.IDK, it depends on the interest of the Brawl community in this.

I edited the OP to include melee + 2 day event. I guess we'll get this scheduel sorted out later.

I'm hoping that nothing else happens that day so I can actually come. aka I'm in. Am I helping host Melee or something?

I don't think that doing both games in one day are a good idea, theres no way you can do them on seperite times with out them over lapping. It's common knolage that smash tournaments take a ****LOAD of time to run, So there is no way in hell it can be done on the same day with no over lapping.
Do one day brawl one day melee.

Edmonton kinda sucks for that, but I am sure someone could house one person.

Igcoris

Well, for anyone that could/can house me, i know my general manners/etiquette and i play a mean game of melee.

Luke showing us his great organizational skills, even showing how much he cares about offering his own support.
Have you evr done anything to help Luke?

I never house people and I wouldn't host an only melee player either.

otherwise, thanks for showing a positive response to housing me, guys. if the carpool to alberta happens, i definitely plan on going.

Btw Jake, if you are coming, I want a little payback, and the best way to do that is a MM. $5 Ike vs Yoshi, Bo5, what do you say?

Just because you do it doesn't mean Edmonton is good for housing.
I am not the host *******, I was just telling him it might be a little difficult to find housing. Clearly Sid is very willing to do so, so I guess he's good to go.

I'll gladly take your money, as long as I can go. It's looking really unlikely at this point though. It's a two-day event, each game is spread over those two days, it's not a long weekend, and last but not least, it's a 12-hour drive. =S It probably won't be feasible for me to go at this point, unless I want to ditch a whole day of classes on Monday. >.>

If I have the money and nothing unexpected comes up, I'll probably make it out to this.

Brawl and melee will be on seperate days. Looks like your chances got higher =D.I'll gladly take your money, as long as I can go. It's looking really unlikely at this point though.

If Brawl is on Saturday, that could work for me. However, that would leave Igcoris without a way back if he came with us, since we'd most likely leave on Sunday. I don't want to ditch a day's worth of classes, and none of the other Vancouver Brawl players really play Melee, so we probably wouldn't stay the extra day. Would there be any other Melee players willing to come to this (that have the ability to drive)?

I linked the link in the BC thread, but only one person responded to it, so I don't think they even looked at this thread, which is pretty lame.

they probably saw that brawl was involved and ran away
BC doesnt play brawl I dont think
