Fund Raiser Tournament - Is there enough interest?

[Kryojenix]

The gaming club at my campus (Pomona, CA) is planning to host tournaments to raise funds for ASB.  If enough people here are interested, I'll propose MBAC as an event.  All equipment use w/ be free but a percentage of the pot would be given to ASB.  If this happens, there are two scenarios for how the tournament will be conducted.

1) If we're allowed to use a lab:
* we'll have over 30 computers at our disposal for tourney and free play (yes, ACTUAL freeplay)
* projectors for displaying top 8 or other highlight matches
* we could potentially finish a tournament of major-level attendance in an hour (provided everyone has their own stick & adapter...and people don't keep disappearing...)

2) If we're restricted to using a classroom:
* we'll have roughly 6 computers to use...maybe more if i ask nicely or if people bring their own in
* projectors will still be available
* 32 plus people tourney might take a few hours

We can also wheel in TVs to run other tournaments simultaneously if people want.
So, time to test the water...who's interested?

I really hope this doesn't overlap with my finals week. I'm interested in the idea, but getting over there is another story.

DeVry.  When will be decided after i present the idea to the club.  How much depends on the community.  How much everyone is willing to cough up to enter, how big does the pot need to be to get people's attention, etc.  input appreciated

likely, it'll be on a saturday so i don't think you have to worry

I might actually be interested when is it?

Well for me a smaller pot is better than a larger one as I don't plan on winning.  But as long as it isn't too big I don't care too much.  Maybe for once I can get Zaido to drive!

alrite, i've written up a proposal and on my way to admin to get approval.  i'll let y'all know how it goes later today.
proposed date: Sat. Jan. 28, 2008
proposed fee: $5 ($4 pot, $1 donated)
primarily asked for use of computer lab.  asked for classroom with extra computers if computer lab is denied.
we'll try to bring in pan (bread) which we'll sell at a reasonable price for extra fundraising
