: Battle By The Gazebo EX OAV: Reunions. (REQUEST FOR PERMIT HAS BEEN SUBMITTED)
: HRGS|忍 April 21, 2013, 06:28:36 PM
Zar and St1ckbug gave me what I needed. I'm going in.

For those who don't know already, I'm spending my vacation in August at NYC to chill out and visit a couple places. St1ckbug hit me up and told me he would like to make another BBG happen once I get my dates figured out (which I am still working on; it will be in August though). So there, I'm going to run my own Battle By the Gazebo with the information Zar gave me on running the permit game in the city. Of course, I want a head count to see who would come out to this dig...ya dig?

Another reason is that my dates haven't been confirmed to when I'm heading to NYC. Just know it has to be in August and I'll be here for about a week and a half. This is a one day event that will probably happen either on Friday or Saturday. If there is a day that would be good for everyone guaranteed attendance, it would help my scheduling a lot. I also don't want to conflict with any majors going on around the area unless everyone just decides to run this instead of going to whatever major is happening.

Since this is a BBG, I want to be sure everyone from the areas surrounding to show up and make this a memorable experience for me personally since I have always wanted to go to a BBG myself. I'm saying this because y'all my niggas and I finally have a chance to get up there to play whoever's left to fight. Don't make me beg pls. ;_;

Related inquiries can go here too. I do need a place to stay for a couple days if you got one. :3

The only thing that will give you real problems is the power issue. Last time I tried to do this was the whole BBNL thing. So if you can get everything needed from the parks then you should be fine. Also these are best held on Saturdays mostly because of people not needed to come straight from work on a Friday.

IMO don't even bother with this shit. You set your fucking date after everything has been finalized and post it up. I'm sure people won't hesitate to duck friends, family, and gf to make it out to a BBG and if they ain't making moves to get out to NYC for one...well, then they're fucking up and that's on them.

People WILL show, mang (The magic # is 8 lol). August is ample time to prepare. Make it happen, capt'n!!

Also...I have to practice for this so I can not be utter garbage come tourney time.  :gonk:

It's not like a head count as in numbers but I see where you could get that from. I was just interested as in WHO was coming instead of how many. The shit is going down regardless.

In terms of date, the only thing to keep in mind is that Otakon is August 9-11 thus some people won't be available that weekend.

Otherwise, I'd be in the same boat as Tigre. Mostly because I commute across 3 states daily and I don't feel like driving it.

You're not me silly.

Also people don't know about the poverty that happens at BBG, but if we're having this, you guys gotta sort out that power issue. Otherwise 2 hour laptop tourneys go?

Won't be the same without drunk jiyuna. I hope there's drunk tai chi to be done.

The plan, according to Shinobi, is that Stickbug is providing a power generator as back up. I've already contacted the park manager in charge of overlooking the power issue and he said we're good......but from my experience in life, people tend to be stupid and fuck things up so I'm going to assume that we'll have to fall back on power generator until Shinobi or myself contacts the manager AGAIN a few days before the event just to make sure you guys don't get jerked. (Even then, bringing power generator would be good idea).

Also,
The only thing that will give you real problems is the power issue. Last time I tried to do this was the whole BBNL thing. So if you can get everything needed from the parks then you should be fine.
MY BAD, FOX. Was looking through some old mails from when I was first starting up BBG and it turns out....THERE WAS NEVER AN OPTION TO REQUEST/CHECK FOR POWERRRRR lol :bricks:

What I ended up doing actually was contacting the park manager (repeatedly) and bugging the fuck out of him, explaining the situation of the event and that we needed power for several hours on that day. Each time he was cool with it.

EDIT:
Hope when Shinobi finalizes date for this that you guys spam the hell out of his BBG tweets and spread word through other anime forums. So easy to promote events these days compared to just 5 years ago.

Will they allow a power generator at the Gazebo? Those are usually pretty loud.

If they are worried about loud generators, then they have no idea of the hype that will ensue after gathering all of us in an area and putting melty on a screen lol

They actually recommend bringing a power generator for electronic equipment and it's not an issue with them.

Also, what Nightroad said lol. The ppl at the event will be way louder than the generator. Only time loudness is an issue is when you have those big concert speakers on site. You'd have to apply for an additional sound permit if you wanted to get that serious with it.

Alright wasn't sure. Just wanted to make sure that our fallbacks were solid. Good to hear you guys got this shit.

In my opinion do this once a year so I can go next year~

Memories of BBG is what keeps me playing melty to this day.  It's an excellent opportunity to bring new players into the scene as well, so get on that. 

Wish I could go, record all the matches, take video of the event, and lots of pictures.  If so I can make a video and share the stuff with JP Melty community as well.

If you can find a way to stream this I want to have some players over my place and JP Restream the event  :toot: :toot:

Two updates:

1) I've got the time off. This shindig has an official date: Saturday, August 17th at the Gazebo.

2) As of tonight, I have applied for a permit to use the Gazebo for that day. I'll be updating you all whenever I get work back from the city about the permit. When the permit is finalized, you will release the social flood gates to get the wheel turning on this event's success.

Just cross your fingers guys.

Kirah said he'll come as well as Yui & Zeal, Sp00ky said he might be able to house you during that time as well IF it's not the same weekend as Summer Jam/him being busy which he probably won't be at that time.

Could it be possible to link the events together so that say... the top four of each event get put into a top 8 bracket and we do some sort of netplay-based top 8?

Update on the BBG revival. As of Today, the request for permit has been declined. Going to aim for the last weekend of August now. RT pls.

If someone has access to Melty Bread right now, please update that thread as I can't get to MBread at work.

: dumba989 August 12, 2013, 07:36:36 AM
As far as this event goes, I think it's safe to say it's no longer happening because of the schedule for the permit & no power generator being present.
: Re: Battle By The Gazebo EX OAV: Reunions. (REQUEST FOR PERMIT HAS BEEN SUBMITTED)
: HRGS|忍 August 15, 2013, 06:48:05 PM
Confirmed. The 2nd permit has been denied and there will be no generator present in time for the event. I am going to be in NY from 28th - 1st. Let's kick it at NL or something.
