To Kyle and the crew i heard you talking about parent consent i think thats really a bummer if your coming from regina because if i go im going with a buddy. so i wont have a parent. or atleast make it so someone responsible for the player under 17 signs.

I told a few people on XBL but there will be a form on that site that your parents will need to sign if you are under 17. Just print it get it signed and bring it to the registration day.

Super Smash Brothers Delayed until March January 15, 2008
by: Matt Furtado (http://www.advancedmn.com/corp/contact.html)

The official Smash Bros Website updated today with a surprise that no one truly expected. Outside of the daily update, the site also revealed that Brawl will now be delayed until March 9 for North America. Also revealed was that the Japanese release will be pushed back a week and now see release on January 31.

After countless rumors of an impending delay, the Smash Bros Dojo website made the March date official.

Sakurai posted this on the offical site, "Due to delays in the completion of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, we've had to change the release date of the game to Sunday, March 9th.

I deeply apologize to the people who have looked forward to playing the game for so long and ask that you hold on just a little longer. Thank you for your patience."

I think for that whole parental consent thing u should have to only sign it once the whole season gettin the parents to agree that through out the whole season they give permission for there son/daughter to attend the events and assume full responsibility for the childs actions that wy u dont ahve to do the forms everytime

We are looking into doing this it just will require lots of file keeping between each event.

Ya that pissed me off to see that delay...Japan gets a 1 week delay we get 1 month. I used to do tournaments for SSBM but looks like I will have to wait for SSBB Tournaments.

Sounds good hopefully there's a good interest. Too bad Devin probably won't be able to make it though.

Kyle can you give us any info on any pretty good but affordable hotels that are around the area of TCU Place?

alright fellas we cannot guarantee 10 grand but like I said at the last one it was our goal...... it is still a huge finacial burden to put these on as most of you already know...... also having to buy 24 elite consoles and games might hinder the pot for this one, so basically what everyone pays into play will be given away I will will take the hit on the rest of the stuff......

01-23-2008, 06:10 PM
So if only around 14 teams register like the last tournament there will only be 1700 split between the top 3 teams?

we had 16 i think in the last one...... + our 2v2 and FFA money will all combine...... if we it still looks short after all that money is pooled I will once again throw in my own money towards the pot

01-23-2008, 08:18 PM
