HEY.

Some people have legit questions. And they're getting ignored because of this bull****.

Jebailey, I have been thinking of another possible issue that needs to be assured right now.

If smashers are entering singles only, which is on Saturday, do they have to show up Friday for badge purchase and signups or can they do so on Saturday before the Smash events begin?

Just asking because I think some players are possibly going to do this and I don't want them to be confused and not be able to participate at this.

If I have to show up on Friday, I'm fuuuuucked.

The problem with allowing smashers to show up and pay for badges on Saturday is the fact that the registration office will be closed since there are no acceptions for all the other games.
The only way possible to allow brawl players to come Saturday is if you dtorre are personally ready to be outside and take signups and Payment for their badges. If you're ok with this responsibility then I'll allow it. But those signups MUST be completed before 1 pm since brawl starts at 3 pm. Did I make any sense?

makes sense. I have a little lockbox with a key we can use for registration david

what time can we start registration on saturday, and what time does the place close saturday?

jebailey, is there internet at the venue, as far as wifi? just curious

ah ok. just curious

i wasnt even worried about a stream since the SIIS is the same day and would get most national attention stream wise. our stream would be only for FL really

i mean, if my 3g/4g signal isnt too ****ty inside the hotel i can use my phone for internet if we really want to...

btw garret, if david doesnt already have a laptop or anyone else, can I use your laptop for bracket making and whatnot? ill promise to take epic care of it

i think imma have singles registration end like around losers quarters of dubs, maybe earlier. I want to have time to make pools for singles/have it seeded pretty good so it can start essentially right after dubs, depending on what time we gotta be out saturday. once we get to a bracket, 4 TVs is decent for a bracket up to about 36-48, 6 TVs would make it super easy mode :laugh:

I think I'll take a lesson from how jebailey does things at this tourney. I think i want to host a national for smash someday in Orlando.

Pretty much why there's no Smash Stream at CEO, cause of the other event in Ohio getting more coverage. Sorry about that guys. The Internet is costing me 750 for the weekend and that will be dedicated to Team Spooky of the stream Fighter world so having another stream would lower the quality of that. If your phone can handle it stream the Smash on your own. You guys can record all you want though for yourselves and do whatever if anyone wants to setup a recording station.

The Room is open at 9 am on Saturday So you could start Smash Signups for last minute Saturday people then. Room Closes on Saturday. If somehow you can't finish on Saturday and people are still staying for Sunday you can finish Sunday afternoon starting at 1 pm. From 11 to 1 pm is the Movie Screening of the King of Chinatown so no games will be allowed for that time frame.

yea no prob about the stream, i understand.

Id probably want to start signups/friendlies early early on like right at door opening time, 10am at the latest. Some minion will have to bring me breakfast if i dont get it myself beforehand :laugh:

I got sprint so as long as the signal is legit, i got no problem using it to stream something up for the sake of florida. i think the sprint 4g coverage is better near that area of orlando anyway. Since smashers are paying so much (in comparison to other tourneys i mean, not really that much in general in regards to the caliber of tourney) I really want to do pools at least for singles. Of course I'll aim to end everything saturday, but what time does it close saturday, just so I know what im working with? Also, if you end up having any extra power strips or extension cables it will be greatly appreciated. I have a few of each but any extra always helps

btw have you used the new TIO? lol its terrible, but then again i last saw it in March

Edit: can we start dubs earlier? like 2pm instead of 3

I'm down with that. I'll let HungryBox know about this.

Sweet. We will have to use it for both Brawl and Melee. I have to let Hungrybox and Neil know.

btw garret, if david doesnt already have a laptop or anyone else, can I use your laptop for bracket making and whatnot? ill promise to take epic care of it

No need for Garret to bring his laptop. I already have mine.

As far as registration, you do know that dubs is completely on Friday right?

Tentative schedule

Friday, June 10th

10 AM - Doors open; Registration begins
7 PM - Melee and Brawl Teams begins (with Finals Friday Night)

Saturday, June 11th

9 AM - Doors open
11 AM - Melee Singles begins
3 PM - Brawl Singles begins


From the CEO 2011 Schedule Page (http://ceogaming.org/schedule)

For those interested in other games, I'd suggest you take a look at that link.
Saturday, Melee starts at 11 am and Brawl starts at 3 pm. We'll have late registration for singles on Saturday morning. Brawl singles will be easy to register as we will have from 9 am to 1 pm. Melee will be a different story. Since Melee singles starts at 11 am we only have 9 to 11 am for late signups. We could push Melee to start at Noon. I'll ask HungryBox about this too.

Edit: can we start dubs earlier? like 2pm instead of 3
Dubs starts at 7pm, on Friday.

Hm.
40 bucks.

Hope you can come.

Hes not going you heard it here first.
Way to support the community.

hm, sure I can bring tio.

:rosalina:
You can bring your laptop for other stuff, but mine will be used for the tourney.




HungryBox, bring your laptop too so you can make Melee Brackets and I can make Brawl Brackets on mine.

Aside from you and Bloodcross (who's not even going anymore), no one else answered if they wanted Smash completely on Saturday.

If we're gonna do Smash completely on Saturday, both games are gonna have to start on 12 noontime. Registration will be from like 9 to 11 am and there will not be any forgiving period after. Players have Friday from 10 am to 5 pm, and Saturday from 9 am to 11 am to register.

Okay :D

Smash is really the only fighter i've ever played.
My friend Aaron (Dice) is teaching me how to play 2-d fighters. The whole Dragonpunch, holding back to shield, assist, xfactors are so annoying to try to learn :glare:

But i'm determined :D

I learn how to play Thor too. We should do thor dittos. I found a way to host games in Live using player matches. That might help our connection problems.
