OK i just finalized the date, so everything is ready:
Date: 2/2/08, 2/3/08
Time: ALL DAY
Entry Fee: $5 to cover food, drinks, etc. (not including when we go out, as everyone will have to cover themselves)
All tournaments are free to enter.
Location: 6029 W. Byron
Chicago, IL, 60634
Tourney Rules: Double Elim, 2/3 matches 3/5 winners, semi, and GF. Smash 64 is 1 match the entire way through, 4 stock.
Reason for holding tournies: My b-day is Jan 31st, so i wanna throw a house tourney as an excuse to get people to come over and hang out and stuff. Im reserving the date early so nobody else throws a tourney the same weekend and is like O I DIDNT KNOW ABOUT THAT ONE!
Anyways, the plan is:
Friday : Hang out/go out to eat (thinking Chicago pizza, cause out of towners love it, and of course us Chicagoans do, too)
Saturday: Tourneys for:
Naruto EX2
Arcana Heart
Soul Calibur 2
Smash 64
Melty Blood (pc ver, please bring laptops if you can?)
IaMP (see above)
Sunday: Hang out
There'll be other games present, i can have a buncha setups, plus my laptop for Melty and IAMP and such. Its not limited to what's on the tourney list, tho that's what we're gonna focus on.
As usual, no entry fee, just bring some money for little ceasers or something (its pretty popular whenever i order it for parties).
And yea, IF YOU'RE COMING, PLEASE POST OR LET ME KNOW.
When the date gets closer, ill post my address. For those that don't know, im on the NORTHWEST SIDE OF CHICAGO. I'm about 20 minutes from O'Hare airport, and rides can most likely be arranged (though i dont want to make like, 5 seperate trips cause i want to kinda man the house)
So yeah, lets hope a lotta people can come because these gatherings are always mad fun, even if the games leave something to be desired, at least people can hang out.
There's not too many rules, just the usual. Treat the house with respect, etc. Try not to swear (this applies mostly when my parents are around). After it gets super late, don't scream and stuff, talking and playing at a normal volume is fine though. If you're gonna stay the night or something, ask first. If you don't ask and don't have permission, then im not gonna allow it.
