LastStarSaviour Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Volpe's going to be out of town this week (one of the main reasons I may not be able to go). Still trying to pull some serious strings here but I have almost no options. This blows!!!
LastStarSaviour Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 I wasn't going to make this known, but I do have an attendance requirement to keep up in order to continue doing these at Game Galaxy. I've got flyers and banners, but I need you guys to do your part in spreading the word too... Tch. I sound like a bum. I understand, i've been trying to find people who will attend. Believe it or not but MTN has an ad in my school's newspaper. I'll bring it by next time i'm there, hopefully it'll be this saturday.
Grimstar Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Attendance might be: 1&2. Eshi + friend 3. Milln 4. Midnight 5. Doro 6. Billy 7. Me 8. Chandler 9. Tad 10. Volpe (?) 11. Pickle (?) So somewhere between 9 and 11. MvC3 is always random in attendance. I like how you randomly put yourself 7th.
Jackie Chandler Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Dang, I need to post/check here more often. Great games last night Astaroth and Tad, I had a lot of fun. Just finished some cool games with Seiki, too, although I wish our connections between each other weren't so fluctuating. MTN to play online more. I always have a blast playing with fellow Tennesseans. I wasn't going to make this known, but I do have an attendance requirement to keep up in order to continue doing these at Game Galaxy. I've got flyers and banners, but I need you guys to do your part in spreading the word too... Tch. I sound like a bum. MTN People Who Care About Fighting Games Enough to Come to Tournaments. If I thought more than three people in Cookeville even knew what Blazblue was, I'd put up posters all over the place. Damn, I'm not sure that I'm going to be able to make it saturday either. Going to try my best And in a clever ploy, Midnight made EVERYONE think they have a chance to win the tournament so they'd show up, when in reality he plans to attend anyway... I like your thinking. Really though, it's the fuggin' summer. It's really disappointing to hear so many people aren't going/might not be able to make it this Saturday. I can't show off my new CSII Ragna Astral combos if nobody's there. :/
Astaroth136 Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 (edited) I like how you randomly put yourself 7th. I died laughing at this... not sure why. Anyway, lecture time!!! First, you all knew that MTNG would be May 28. If not, you just didn't pay attention to the fact that it's the last Saturday of each month. I don't drive, so to guarantee that I have a ride, I mark it on the calendar at the beginning of the month. That way, I can pull strings all month to figure out who is going to drive me. Waiting until the last minute usually backfires due to Murphy's Law. Also, if you're close to your family, ask them what the plans are for that last Saturday. Surely ALL of these vacations and happenings weren't last minute. Work doesn't apply here; neither does family emergencies. Second, if you do realize you can't go, post here ASAP. If enough people post early enough that they aren't going, maybe Milln can get it bumped to a week early or a week late. He already confirmed that we need a decent attendance to continue these. Third, IT'S SUMMER! Well, not officially, but it is for students. We should be getting record numbers, considering school is out for many of us. Lastly, this is CS-FREAKIN'-2's first tournament for us. It needs the love. And that's my rant for the day. Edited May 24, 2011 by Astaroth136
Top_Cat Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Tomorrow I'll know for sure whether or not I'll be able to make it.
Milln Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 (edited) My bare minimum is ten (100 dollar venue fee). With volpe and star backing out/ on the maybe list, and midnight on the maybe list, ...even with Papstr and KAIN potentially coming, that kills it cause I can never confirm pickle. Today's Tuesday. I don't want to drop a late "hey were not going to host a tourney" when they've already paid for the room because that's money out of the arcade's pocket. Arcades are businesses(and believe it or not, running tournaments is also a business) and losing 100 straight out is detrimental. Unless you guys find and confirm people that will undoubtedly show up this Saturday, I must cancel out of respect. I'll wait till the end of the day. Astaroth has summed up(thank yo very much. I appreciate you) why there isn't a reasonable excuse for you all to be posting as shakily as you are and I'm mildly disappointed if it leads to canceling MTN5, but of that happens I guess I'll see you all at MWC Sunday the 26th. Edit: my phone number is 615-775-7665, everyone should add me if you haven't already. Text me or something if you have complications, comments or ideas. Edited May 24, 2011 by Milln
Astaroth136 Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 (edited) Milln, if we only have 9 people on the "for sure" list by tonight, I'm actually willing to pay an extra $10. Also, I'm currently looking into some Marvel players' attendance. EDIT Just got confirmation from Boomcube. He'll 100% be there. Edited May 24, 2011 by Astaroth136
Klein Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 If I knew anyone in my area that'd be willing to make a round trip to Antioch to sit down all day or travel around the mall, I'd be up there in a heartbeat. Until I meet someone like that though, I'm job searching. Sorry guys.
Milln Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 For sure for marvel or BlazBlue or both? And I understand your fervor, and so would I to pay the extra ten, but do you really want a tourney for nine? @Klein: where is your area?
Astaroth136 Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 For sure for marvel or BlazBlue or both? And I understand your fervor, and so would I to pay the extra ten, but do you really want a tourney for nine? Last month, they had a 5-man Round Robin SFAE tourney in the arcade when we did our Blazblue. There's been plenty of small tournaments done everywhere. If not for that, we can all still have fun with casuals and stuff anyway.
Milln Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 Oh I forgot about that. Alright. Everything else remains. We need people regardless of anything. @Klein: I can come get you or take you back. Can you get to Murfreesboro Friday night?
Klein Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 @Klein: I can come get you or take you back. Can you get to Murfreesboro Friday night? Probably not, but I'll ask about it ASAP.
Alphakami Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Klien, I drive thru Spring Hill, you are on the way for me, no fuggin reason I can't give you a ride. I do have to go work on a car after the tournament in Nashville, so it'll be kinda late when we get back most likely. Also, Phil told me he's coming as well, so there is another.
Klein Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Alright, I will do my best to convince my mom that I'm not gonna get kidnapped. Will post the result whenever I get one.
snipingsnipe Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Sorry for the last minute posting about not being able to go Millin, my dad drives me up the wall with his crazy schedule, I'll try my best to make it to the next one though
Milln Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 I can take you back Sunday, Klein&co. If it's a problem of getting back at poop in the morning. This is what I like to see. Everyone helping others out. Don't forget to spread the word.
Papstr Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Kain and I will show. I'll see if I can get Ace on board as well.
Astaroth136 Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 This is what I like to see. Everyone helping others out. Don't forget to spread the word. My word spreading on SRK may have picked us up a new member. Got a pm from him saying he was interested.
LastStarSaviour Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Whoa, whoa, whoa. Let me say this in my defense. Volpe had already said he was good to go for next MTN. It wasn't until yesterday that he told me he had to go to North Carolina. I've had the trip planned since the beginning of the month. THIS WAS NOT A LAST MINUTE THING!!!! *Pouts*
Milln Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 (edited) No one is saying anything bad about you, Star. You need to calm down. Snipes, I can pick you up/take you back if you'd like to go. Astaroth and Tad are legit. @Billy, below: I haven't even been able to turn my 360 ON due to RadioShack working me into the ground, which I'll admit is partially my fault. You live in boro, though, don't you? If youre free after 9 we can play together at my new place. Edited May 24, 2011 by Milln
Grimstar Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Very well, I had second thoughts about entering a CS2 tourney considering I have pretty much not even played the game yet... Was planning on just watching for now... But I will enter it for the sake of Milln's TO skizzles and the sake of weeaboo monthly to continue.
Seiki Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 I think it's silly for GG to impose a minimum venue revenue limit, I mean it's not like they use that space for anything else except to hold arcade machines that almost no one uses.
Milln Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 (edited) Silly or not, that's what it is, unless you have a better, easily accessible venue. Edit: I mean, there is an explanation why, but i'm on my phone and I don't feel like touch screening it Out. Edited May 24, 2011 by Milln
