Okay, so I got asked the guys from Winter Game Fest and here's how they explained the specifics to me: There's going to be a large free-play section where people can play all sorts of games, and people can bring their own consoles, games, etc. And if a certain game gets enough players, with about 16 people or so, they'll help set up a tournament for it on the spot. So basically, what I'm going to do is bring my setup to the event and just hope BB players show up. If 16 people show up, awesome we can have a tourney. If there's not enough people, then oh well no big deal we can still play BB and meet new players and treat it as a casual gathering. I think that if we choose a day that's best for us and all show up on that day, we'll get probably get enough players. I'm expecting Sunday will have the highest concentration of BB players, since my BB friends are most likely attending on that day.
Oh and Ichipoo, I live right next to the 905 freeway, so yea I'm pretty far down there.
