That would really help me out if you guys can do that. See contact section for the appropriate information. I have changed a lot of entry fee so players can have some kind of money left over to do other things with like eat and party or do whatever.

eric Posted September 2, 2011 Author Posted September 2, 2011 Hey Big E. DRS would like to help sponsor the tournament. I wanted to add a 100$ pot bonus to BB.
Light_Nazgul Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 Yay! Maybe this event will not have a hurricane. I am looking forward to this.
agp24 Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 It'd be fun to go again this year. I shall try to save up.
huey253 Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 i'll be there... i'm joining AE and Blazblue atm...
LordPangTong Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 Best tournament of the year =D I'll be playing MB, BB, and GG
OmniSScythe Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 Should be able to attend, entering UMvC3, BB and 3S.
Xie Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 Gonna try to make it out to this. I'd be in BB, MB, AE, GG, UMvC3.
Razman Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 Making it out to this for sure. Be in BB, and UMvC3. First tournament, woo.
St1ckBuG Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 So, this will be my 4th NEC. I've helped BigE run all of his BB/GG tournaments at all of his NEC/WB/SJ since my first NEC in December of '08. I've seen entries in the 80's and I've seen entries in the single digits. I've done tournaments with 1 setup and I've done then with 4+. I've seen tons of people on the first day and none on the second. I've had my brackets lost after the second round of a double elimination tournament with 60+ entrants and had to restart. I've had to wait hours for people to finish matches in SSF4 and Marvel in order to keep my tournaments going. I've had to deal with people leaving and not telling me. I've had to deal with terrible hand writing. I've seen a lot, and I know how to plan and run these things by now. I know how people feel on the first and second days. I know the limits of the venue and what it does to tournaments that are run simultaneously. With that being said... I've noticed in the past that even though this is a 2 day tournament, everyone seems to lose drive on the second day. This has caused events to either be cancelled or crammed all into 1 day. What I want to do this year is ask you guys what you want to be the main events. I'm only responsible for GG and BB, so I don't care a whole lot about what the other games are doing. If we have BB/GG singles on Saturday and teams on Sunday, there's a very strong chance that teams won't happen. This is because we usually end up starting late because people wake up late, or the 'out-of-towners' have to leave early Sunday afternoon and can't stay. This is how things will be: Main Events: Saturday Side Events: Sunday What I propose we do: Friday Night Event BlazBlue Special Event: 10v10 or 15v15 with excessive drinking. Saturday Events BB Teams (2v2) GG Singles Sunday Events BB Singles GG Teams (3v3) Thoughts? Suggestions?

Reioumu Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 (edited) This seems to happen every time too. People having to leave on sunday so teams gets all messed up, but you gotta have the main events on Saturday when everyone is there. Before anyone suggests it, don't cram EVERYTHING (teams and singles) into one day, especially when you have people in 3+ tournaments as it is, and things would be hell. 10v10/15v15, I'm up for this! Also, might be wanting to run a side HnK or FUC tournament for shits and giggles. I'm cool for GG/MB/AH3(though it's not on the list anymore lol) I dunno about entering BB, it's been a tradition of mine, but then I seem to play casuals and people think I should be in it :/... Eh either way, I'll be drunk the entire time as always. Huey, haven't seen you since we briefly met at EVO 2010, we having a color fight? Winner and Loser drink excessively!?
