MD/VA still needs a room. Or are we gonna be homeless in Atlanta?

I think it may be possible, if this community is as helpful/gentlemenly as everyone says it is, we can split you guys all up into one room a piece - but that right is exclusively reserved by the people who have paid for the rooms. 

That being said though you guys are contributing a lot of the equipment and have a full group, so you need to for the love of god should get a room yourselves.  Any other alternative involves you guys just paying someone between the group of you for the full room which is something you could just organize amongst yourselves more easily.  Like Generic said, except that Friday Night and Saturday Night would be 120$ each, which again shouldn't be a problem between the entire region.  That's at most 30$ a person per night in a luxury hotel, if you only have 4 people (don't you usually have 5 or 6?)

The problem is, I'm the only one with a credit card. I won't have enough on there to put the hotel up because I'm also paying for my school tuition... Will go over the max. And I would rather have more than 4 people per room to split the cost more. #ecpoverty

I'm pretty sure that Pfhor posted in here somewhere, but I have a room. I don't think it's full right now, but you should ask Pfhor about it. He's kinda keeping track of who is staying in it. I can say that right now, it's 3 of us from DFW. But check with Pfhor. I can prolly hold at most 8 ppl. with floor space.

TexasTim proving once again he is the most baller member of this community.  If Tim only has space for the 3 of you, we can pick up one person in another room.  Maybe even mine, depending on who shows up the day of the event.

In accordance with the timeframes I posted earlier the latest you want to arrive (if you pre-registered, if you didn't and don't plan on doing so you need to come early Friday morning) is 3PM or so you can play in MB Teams that night, and leave late afternoon Sunday if you want to get back for work or class Monday.

So I'm actually living in Augusta right now, but I cannot take leave / get off for this because I work weekends.

Fuck my life.

Someone say hi to Chelsea and Garu for me, even though they won't remember who the hell I am.

The problem is, I'm the only one with a credit card. I won't have enough on there to put the hotel up because I'm also paying for my school tuition... Will go over the max. And I would rather have more than 4 people per room to split the cost more. #ecpoverty
If worst comes to worst, you can use my card if you get me a list of everyone there I eventually get paid back for this shit.

Nah don't worry, I think we got this.

Also I wouldn't do that anyway, I let someone use my card once and didn't get paid back, I just think it's a bad idea overall since I don't see you face to face :/

This is so hilariously wrong I'm still laughing reading this list.



I've also heard some bad things about FR with regards to MB, but I'm going to just passively-aggressively mention it since I'm not exactly clear on it... other than the fact that if you are going to FR you need to pre-register; ShinBlanka keeps posting this for a reason other than his own well-being (although it does help that too).

1)  I would like to know ALL issues people have with Final Round good or bad.  How can I improve on the tournament if people won't tell me when we are fucking up?  I'm willing to listen to complaints as well as praise.

2)  Online registering is for my benefit to make this event run as smoothly as possible.  Registering at the door is not a right, it's bonus and it usually delays the start of the event.  This will be the last time I offer at the door sign up's because I want to start the event on time.  Just to give you an example of last year at FRXIV we had 180 in ssf4 and mvc3 sign up online.  So with that information we made pools based on those players that online reg.  On friday+sat we had 140+ added to both events.  So of course we had to throw those damn brackets/pools away in the trash because we had to re-seed players on the fly which is a cluster fuck in itself. 

This year I want to make the pools/brackets in advance so people can know when they get to the event that pools/brackets can be posted when you walk in the event ballroom on friday march 2, 2012 morning.  This will help us properly seed and seperate players/regions in the brackets/pools.  All of this is to the benefit of the people competing in the event more than it is for me.

likewise with $NJ$ room; serious ballin/sleeping room.  everyone who is just now trying to arrange a room: you are dumb but lucky that shinblanka got an infinite discount deal.  just book another room; 120$ between 4 people is no big deal and you all get bedspace.

generic btw
Hey man The Final Round Group rate is $93 per night.  It shouldn't be $120 per night!

Have any news of Garu and Chelsea coming back been posted on any fg news sites? I don't see any...

I was actually musing to myself recently it would be nice if I could write an article for IPlayWinner about what it was like to work with Japan and what Japanese players wanted to see by coming to an American tournament. 

Can anyone hook me up with a contact they have there?  PM me. 

Also, I think we could get some extra entrants from cross-gaming if we get an SRK post.  If SRK knows that Garu and Chelsea are coming, maybe those players will sign up for MB also.  Even if it's 2 or 3 more entrants it's worth it to try and get them to put it up now, before entry closes this weekend, right?

Do your best guys.  I have not the slightest idea as to how we can scratch that surface.

You could write an article for our site and I could relay it to SRK / Iplaywinner.

They're completely random with what they want to post up.

Hell SRK has done more Melty articles then Iplaywinner has.

I don't especially want to expend the effort with my current limited amount of time before FR if I don't get some sort of promise that it'll be posted.  (or atleast intends to be)

Well if you gave it to me it would actually get front page on our site, which has to account for something (maybe). I can't promise you anything for SRK / Iplaywinner as I haven't the foggiest idea what their guidelines are for posting material.

Wouldn't hurt to put on our front page though.
