PARKING:
Map and detailed instructions here:
http://drafthouse.com/kansas_city/mainstreet/mainstreet_directions_parking/

There are 2 parking garages, both on 13th and Main:
If you arrive before Noon, the H&R Block Garage will be closed, so use the Cosentino's/OneLife garage. Prime floor is 3rd floor, same as Main Street level.
Otherwise use the H&R Block garage. All floors are deeper than Main Street level, but there's a patron elevator toward the south wall you can use to quickly get back up.

Regardless of which garage you end up in, GET YOUR PARKING VALIDATED or you'll be charged when you leave. The first thing you should do when you walk inside Alamo is hand the parking pass you took to get into the garage to the box office to get it validated.

STAFF:
Brett Alan Coker is our main man if you have questions about anything. He has a job to do, though, and on most nights he has to disappear at 9:30 PM to run films and won’t be available for the rest of the night. Just keep in mind we’ll be on our own after 9:30.

FOOD
Full menu: http://cf.drafthouse.com/_uploads/files/23389/mainstreet_-_10-13-14_reduced.pdf

We’re not hollywood enough yet to have staff attend to us in the mezzanine, so just head down to the 1st floor lobby to order what you want. There are also plenty of restaurants in the Power & Light district within walking distance from cheap (Chipotle, Burger King) to not-so-cheap (BRGR or any of the bar & grills). We hope you choose to support Alamo though!

PARKING:

Map and detailed instructions here: http://drafthouse.com/kansas_city/mainstreet/mainstreet_directions_parking/

There are 2 parking garages, both on 13th and Main:

- If you arrive before Noon, the H&R Block Garage will be closed, so use the Cosentino's/OneLife garage. Prime floor is 3rd floor, same as Main Street level.

- Otherwise use the H&R Block garage. All floors are deeper than Main Street level, but there's a patron elevator toward the south wall you can use to quickly get back up.

Regardless of which garage you end up in, GET YOUR PARKING VALIDATED or you'll be charged when you leave. The first thing you should do when you walk inside Alamo is hand the parking pass you took to get into the garage to the box office to get it validated.

STAFF:

Brett Alan Cooker is our main man if you have questions about anything. He has a job to do, though, and on most nights he has to disappear at 9:30 PM to run films and won’t be available for the rest of the night. Just keep in mind we’ll be on our own after 9:30.

FOOD

Full menu: http://cf.drafthouse.com/_uploads/files/23389/mainstreet_-_10-13-14_reduced.pdf

We’re not hollywood enough yet to have staff attend to us in the mezzanine, so just head down to the 1st floor lobby to order what you want. There are also plenty of restaurants in the Power & Light district within walking distance from cheap (Chipotle, Burger King) to not-so-cheap (BRGR or any of the bar & grills). We hope you choose to support Alamo though!

Stunfest also has an Xrd tournament on Saturday May 22nd, capped at 64 players (33 players registered for now), the TOs didn't yet revealed all international players invited but I know RF will be attending the event and enter the GG tournament.

TOs said I would get internet access so I should be able to stream both BB and GG pools on my twitch.

Also on Saturday, after GG pools are done, I will lend the channel to my friends that run the KOF13 tourney, so it should interest those who like that game, most of top european players will be there along with Tokido and Misterio, the winner of the last IGT in Korea.

[Jan 23] 1st Airdasher Tournament @ SmashLoft - Montreal, Canada

Tue, 20 Jan 2015 05:28:41 +0000

New venue : SmashLoft! 2000 Avenue Northcliffe, Suite #106, Montreal, Quebec H4A 3K5

Facebook Event : https://www.facebook.com/events/563970977073184/563972383739710

First local tournament we have since August, hope lots of you bring the hype so we can start getting good again! Version en francais en dessous.

Entry fee 5$

Soft drinks 1$

Schedule :

5pm Venue opens

7pm GGXrd start (double elimination, 2/3 matches)

8pm BBCP, UNIEL start (both single elimination, 1 match)

?pm Venue closes (last metro is around midnight if you're heading east)

IMPORTANT :

We'll need people to bring equipment. Most setups there are CRTs, so I'm bringing a monitor+PS3 for the main station. If you're bringing a PS3, make sure to bring at least the RCA output cable, if you can't bring a monitor. Bring your sticks too please! Seriously no idea how many we'll need nor how many we'll have since it's the first time, but if you could post and let us know ahead what you're bringing it would be awesome!

So, there should be lots of time for casuals, maybe we'll run other games, if there's local interest. I really want to support other games such as AH3, DFC, Melty... but let's at least start simple. Since it's a new place for us, we're not sure what the ideal format and schedule are. I know some people specifically won't be able to be there early enough for the tournaments' start, but without the knowledge of how many stations we'll have and how long they will take to run, I want to play it safe this week.

There should be a stream, I'll post details when we figure that out. We'll try to stream most of GG, and then BB and UNIEL top 4, then whatever exhibitions.

---------------------------------------

Premier tournoi local depuis le mois d'aout, j'espère que vous dodgez pas tous question d'arreter d'être ass à tous ces jeux!

Le reste est pas si important, allez le lire en anglais si vous voulez, je sais que vous êtes capables.
