Upon further contemplation, I am now reconsidering this event, primarily because it really does look like a lot of mb people are going to be there, and I feel we would be insulting them to not go. However this leaves me in a conundrum. I don't have enough money to go to both events, Evo mb is not official which means we'd be running some wacked out side tourney and have to keep looking everywhere for people, run it late at night and end up like last years evo, or something worse.
I don't really know what to do. I'm very confused, and the division between the U.S. and Japan does not help, as well as the arcade version not being available in many places. I'm very frustrated and most of it is not anyone's fault. Do we go to japan to gain the experience and bring it back to the us? Do we cancel our last chance quals spot and pray that Japan has the game again next year, instead of trying to be divisive?
