Tronzilla666 Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 TOURNAMENT CLOSED BUT I WILL DO ONE SOON SINCE CT IS PRACTICALLY DEAD JUST WAIT FOR IT. I WILL DO GATHERINGS THOUGH FOR SURE.
Tronzilla666 Posted November 16, 2009 Author Posted November 16, 2009 I am not from Norcal haha but most people should be out of school by the time this tourney starts so hopefully you can make it gangsta.
Dacidbro Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Dude, it's not business that would keep me, it's travel cost. Lol. Buy me a plane ticket and I'm down.
Tronzilla666 Posted November 16, 2009 Author Posted November 16, 2009 HAHA well you could drive down and crash at my place then leave the next day if you need to. You got this!
Dacidbro Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Gotta be a solid 120 bucks for gas at the very minimum.. I just can't afford it lol.
Tronzilla666 Posted November 17, 2009 Author Posted November 17, 2009 well the problem is you need to start living closer. Haha and then it would be GAME TIME!
dreamskep Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 So, about this tourney... How's it coming along, Tron?
Tronzilla666 Posted November 18, 2009 Author Posted November 18, 2009 Well I am still trying to find a venue. That is the big part so once I find one I can put everything else up to date. So once that happens I will have prices for other things.
Dacidbro Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 If there's no Korean BBQ afterward, it's not a blaz tournament
Hellfromabove Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 I like how there were only 2 people talking in this thread for the entire first page. Too hype. -Tha Hindu
ZONG_one Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 I'm down if this happens. I'll bring a PS3 most likely, because I hate venue fees.
Tronzilla666 Posted November 20, 2009 Author Posted November 20, 2009 I can add T6 and we can go to some BBQ place after. Alright so it is looking like this will most likely be at my house.
render Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 Sup Tron. It's really cool that you're putting this together. That's awesome. I really hope it turns out well. I will unfortunately be out of town, so I personally can't make it, but I'm still really curious: why the venue fee? I can understand a few dollars if you're going to be providing everyone with food and refreshments, but if that's the case, you should make that clear. Otherwise, it looks like you're just trying to make money off of the players. Another thing is that you should probably check for lag on your 72" TV (or at least, make sure to take measures to eliminate lag for when you run the finals). One last piece of advice is to not bite off more than you can chew. You don't know how many people are going to show up with TVs and setups, yet you're planning to run three whole tournaments - the last of which won't start until the first two end. Personally, I think you're spreading your efforts too broadly. Also, lay off the green in your post, man. It's freaking impossible to read. Just my thoughts! I hope it's a success!
Tronzilla666 Posted November 20, 2009 Author Posted November 20, 2009 Alright I will change the color and keep it to two games. I suppose I can make the venue fee less and I am not providing drinks or food but I may. I am going to keep the venue fee the same but I will provide pizza. Tekken 6 is not going to be added Nick! Sorry.
Mike Z Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 Um, so in all seriousness a venue fee is only charged to cover renting the space, providing the food, or paying for things without which the tourney can't be run. Since this is at your (?) house, it appears you are just pocketing the money, which looks pretty shady...
Sarsapari Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 People are getting active in becoming more like active gamers.
Zenmetsu Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 How's the pot going to be split? Also, is the total pot amount going to be proportional to the number of entrants despite the fact that some of the entrants are going to be paying less to enter? For example, if 10 people enter BB then the total pot should be $50, but if half of those 10 people are also entering GG and only paying $4 per game then the total pot for BB is going to be $45, unless you compensate somewhere.
Tronzilla666 Posted November 20, 2009 Author Posted November 20, 2009 Mike Z I am not pocketing the money because I will be providing with what you pay for venue is what will go towards pizza. I have to make a bit in return you know. That is like saying EVO you cant make money off of this tourney, just give it all to us. And Zenmetsu good point I was trying to work a way for people to save a bit of money but I think both will just be $5 then. Any other suggestions would help, I want this to work out good. Sarsapari I am nothing like them and this is my first tourney I am running and believe I like to be prepared not UNPREPARED like them.
Zenmetsu Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 Just some suggestions, you should post the pot payout in your main thread. I'm guessing 70/20/10 but it's up to you. Also you should mention something about parking because not every neighborhood allows free parking without permits. Moreover, prepare power strips and like render said test all your screens for lag.
Tronzilla666 Posted November 20, 2009 Author Posted November 20, 2009 Oh in my neighborhood parking permits is not an issue and I will post the pot splits and have some power strips ready but I may need some extra for some people to bring.
