Game Yard Showdown

Showdown @ The Gameyard
Garden City, Michigan, United States
July 10, 2010

Hello everyone. So I'm browsing Midwest and can't help but notice Brawl has NO Michigan tourneys. Naturally I figured something really needs to be done about that and so here this is. This is only my second attempt at hosting a tournament since my first one through, so a little help from those with more experience in the area would really be appreciated.

Times
12:00 - Venue opens
1:30 - Doubles registration ends
2:00 - Doubles begins
5:30 - Singles registration ends
6:00 - Singles begins
Later - Cookout maybe?

Prices
Venue Fee - $5*
Brawl Singles - $10
Brawl Doubles - $10 per person
*Venue fee will be refunded to anyone bringing a full setup who stays for the entire event. A full setup is a TV and a Wii with a copy of Brawl with all characters and legal stages unlocked. Fee will be refunded if someone brings a setup for doubles and leaves before singles starts.

Pharrox Joined: Jun 2008	Well, doubles doesn't actually start until 2. I listed noon as when it opens for anyone who want to come and play friendlies. Also this should hopefully allow a decent break between doubles and singles for people to get something to eat and for anyone showing up for singles to have time to warm up. If you don't think you can make the registration, just give me a call and I'll be sure to get you in. Also, there may be a cookout afterwards, but this largely depends if I can get a job by then (to get money for food) and if my uncle will let me use his barbecue. Gameyard has already given me the okay for that, and they're open pretty late, so we will probably have time to hang around and play friendlies or maybe crews. Lastly, I added a little condition for people bringing a setup, just so people notice.
