lol - don't spam the thread with bad humor - lol.

TIMMY! READ THE THREAD! lol, don't ask people to bring hardware for just brackets, that can seem totally insulting hahah. BAD RICKY! Also, if you pick it up I've got a few 14 inch crt monitors you can use to dual display off your laptop.
Smoke - ahh yes, Medical school, that and WoW kill so many good fighting gamers...
Wally - well, from what I'm seeing we WILL have a good turn out from Halo players, considering very few of you ever pre-reg, and well, that means what we have seen can be tripled and be potentially accurate.
Digital - WOAH 42 is a bit big
PS3 - turns out we have a solid group of SSF'ers down in OKC that assure me PS3 for this will be fine; in the future we'll be open to 360 discussions since evidently for SSF it "Truly does not matter what console, but 360 has advantages - but can also red ring" - and the MvC3 scene seems like they might go 360 for a national standard as well; as for this event we posted so long ago ps3 that we'll stick with it, and that seemed fine by that community; which appears to be our largest / most hardcore in OK anyway. As for the OKC Ranbats ran by Salty series, we actually approached the new version of them which makes up the group mentioned - "G-Flo", unfortunately they have declined helping out with monitors / hardware at this time for 3/26. However, we do have ORU and OSU (heh) - bringing one setup each - so we SHOULD have a base, I just wanted to shore that up - the more setups, the faster it goes, and the more freeplay AR and others who travel can enjoy until at least 8:30pm, 9ish. I rather you not endanger a huge TV, and to be FRANK - if we get 200+ people showing up to this plus all the sponsors/exhibitors, space will be at a premium (it's kinda turned into a mini-convention lol). So, instead could I talk you into coming by my house at 31st and Yale and adopting a CRT to take with you for the event? With 200+ free shirts, my car is suddenly more full than usual, and by 'adopting a crt' for this event you'll help us effectively by providing that setup that way
If that's not possible please just bring your game / console, and we'll find another TV to merry it up to; most likely a CRT from this collection - make sure you bring your AV jacks! Organization fee waived either way, thanks for being so supportive!

SPEAKING OF HARDWARE:
Halo - has 8 setups sponsored by HxC, as well as Game X Change getting in on that - so I don't think we need to be worried; Halo players that can, please do bring hardware so that we can blast through that FFA, and get your 2v2 finished properly. Your 5$ organization fee is waived when we use your setups.
Brawl - seems to have at least 3 setups coming, and SSBM 2? Those are low numbers, but I do believe Solidus is working on it - Tulsa, do we know about Josh / Chuck on hardware? I'll bring mine of course - getting Brawl up to 4 or 5, and then we need to probably worry about Melee or?
Forza, SC4 and BB all have one setup, which should take care of it; not a huge pre-reg turn out so far for them, however we'll still be doing Round Robin's for any game that has a turnout less than 8 - so don't worry about that
(not to mention several new SC players and that drunk Tekken player's challenge I shall not let disappear
)
SSF - unless something happens - should have AT LEAST 3 setups, so we should be well off there.
MvC though - is my concern now. 1.5 - as Timmy lists his for both BB and MvC. THE PROBLEM with organizing tournaments for new games - we don't know who "the community" is yet, making it hard to know who to work to get hardware out...
MARVEL PLAYERS - can I get a few of you that own PS3 to bring setups?
(a setup = a TV, console and game)
2 to 3 setups should do it unless we have a serious last minute turn out. Solidus is bringing one, so we really just need one to two more. Please consider helping us out here - the more hardware we have, the faster it goes, and that means the more freeplay you'll have after the tournament, and before the event ends. We WILL BE WAIVING the 5$ organization fee for anyone that brings a setup we use. Speak up so we know, we want to make sure we have no issues come event day!
