well they want to hold more tourneys than just super saif... only no one else is showing...

Tou mentioned it because its the only game he plays

Consistent turnout needs:
Consistent setup - you can't miss dates, you have to be there every time, else people doubt.
Communication and promotion - go beyond OKgamers - use FB, Flyers, and word of mouth.
Community building power - if you aren't communicating and growing, then you are dying off to many.
Incentive - some care about community, some care about cash; keeping everyone can be hard.

And pulling it off weekly?  Well, I've already advised the owners of Alien Games what I think / etc - so no need to recap there.


I'd get a list of what is showing up, and who is showing up, and after it's not embarrassing / you've done it for a bit - start posting it.  "Proof is in the pudding" so to speak - show it's happening, show the gamers the fun they are missing out, etc.

♥♥♥♥♥ yea, I agree, it was great.  Ill be there next Tuesday! 
Its awesome that I lost 2/3 fights if you ask me, I would feel bad if I won all the time lol.
I just have to find a way to beat that fat ♥♥♥ E-Honda rofl.  I don't care how OP they say he is ^ ^

I was the guy in the blue shirt / black shorts, Rob.
Were you the Makoto player scotch?

Someone there told me that Flip was also there, in the black Tshirt, but I didnt get a chance to see his face.  Just trying to learn names.

What was that? You're going to a game night that isn't exclusive to MK but won't allow it yourself?

Think about that and LEAVE US ALONE lol

Tim, you make no sense.  Are you that self-absorbed that people can't possibly host a game night at their own house for a game you aren't interested in without having a game there you want to play as well?  I'm sorry there's no children's table at our picnic.  Our little get together is totally separate of this and I don't see how that means we shouldn't go to this if they are also hosting mk.  Last I checked, Alien Games is a business, ran by a great family (had a chance to meet and speak with them a few times while I was playing Magic) and these little tournaments are great side money if enough people are interested.  I mean, I guess I can always take my time and money else where if the Almighty Tim disapproves of how I run *MY* game night and feels I should not go to this.

You do play in the tournaments, right Tim?  You don't beg someone to drive you out to Jenks and then sit in a corner playing pick-up games so you don't have to spend $4?

Besides, I was only inquiring if they played MK on a regular basis out there or if it was a one time thing.  An earlier post in this thread mentioned it, and some guys we played MK with also mentioned it.  I'm just trying to find out if the MK tournament is a regular thing or SSF4 is the main game and the MK thing was a one time event.

truthfully SSF4 is the main game and some Marvel. MK is sometimes played but the majority is SSF4...

That's all I needed to know, thank you. If mk picks up out there, just know you will have two more players. If any of you guys are interested in mk, we have an mk game nite every Thursday here at my place, all are welcome.
