          Other notes:

          [*] After tournaments are done, time is available for casuals and training.

          [*] Prefer that side tournaments not run at same time as main tournaments.

          Fee Structure:

          All attendees are guests at the host's office.

          You are not customers, you are invited guests.

          Venue fee helps defray the cost of maintaining the venue and events.

-P4A, seeding info

[ehuangsan]

I think we should move CvS2 to Caliburst because there are so many tourneys being run at dogfight now and fewer people show up at Caliburst anyway. Hopefully we can also borrow the CvS2 cab to run it since I think keystone people would be interested in showing up and running it. Would that be alright? Can we borrow stream time, and what would be the preferred time slot to run it?

As a reminder/bump, the event is this Saturday.

[IndigoNovember]

Going to try and make it to this one. Is the Blazblue tournament singles or do I have to find someone to team up with?

Edit: Or not, family plans got pushed up and I can no longer go.
