Hey everyone,

Larry (The Orange King), aka the host of the tournament, wants to know who's attending and on which days so we can get a feel for the number of people attending.

So, if you are attending, please reply to this topic your with confirmation for Friday and/or Saturday.

Thanks.

Friday and Saturday, two people

Friday and sat.  2

Fri and Sat. Uno.  Cant wait.

I shall be there. Friday and Saturday.

just reading this page made me think of Thunderdome!! HAHA

Having a tournament in a homeless shelter is hardcore dedication, looking forward to your usual high quality coverage Jack.

I'm gonna predict Hot Rod as the winner, no pressure or anything...

We'll probably do a predictions thread in a few weeks, BBH usually takes care of that.

How many, including you Onslaught, would be interested in a live stream? I'm positive we can get one set up with YouTube Live for the event but I'll need a new webcam + tripod. I'm willing to make the investment if 5+ people are serious about watching.

As for my high quality coverage, we'll have at least 2 videos per round recorded. If we do get the streaming working, then a third video can be recorded straight to YouTube and automatically available on their servers (and no editing).

Haha, it's going to be quite the race to see who can pick me first!

It's one thing to watch me play, but it's another to sit on the other side of the table. 

I'd watch a live stream for sure, even if I missed the beginning I'm bound to be able to view some of it that day. You should rope in an eliminated player to do running commentary on the elimination rounds, eSPORTS!

I just read this post. This is serious. This is a real post  i think you people should take into effect.

You people do NOT need to stay at a homeless shelter. That is so wrong for so many reasons. Have you ever seen the movie 'pursuit of happiness' with will smith? He lines up 3 hours early to make sure he gets a spot in the shelter, stays for the prayers, ect.

The fact that 10+ people want to put 10+ homeless people on the streets for a night is disgusting. These people have needs, and this shelter is one of the only things they have going for them. Its the only time they can sleep with a roof over there head. DO NOT TAKE THEIR ROOMS!

Get a hotel, please. You guys are sick.

Anyhow, i hope you take my thoughts into consideration. Happy venturing.



- HOMELESS ACTIVIST VERSION OF DRDEATH

PS: 5 Dollars on the KING.

We'll do streams for both events, the Friday one (7PM EST/4PM PST) will be a test to see if things work.

All streams will be continuous, connection permitting.

As for commentary, I'll see what I can do about it. There's a lot of equipment crossing the border so I don't want to bring too much crap with me.

That said, I have purchased a new webcam since there seems to be enough interest already.

Who said it was a homeless shelter?

If its not a homless shelter, what is it?

Places just dont give free housing, or else i would never pay my rent.

Quote from: MeCost is $20 for both Friday and Saturday and just $15 for Saturday. Entry fees go toward prizes, venue rental and a continental breakfast will be served on Saturday morning.

Larry is one of the members(?) of the Mission, so we are paying him for the space with our entry fees.

Here's a picture of the Mission:

Maybee for a guessing game for those who cant attend, you can pick up a pair of free used socks to give to whoever guesses the winner. Maybe some canned foods in the back for 2nd place?

I joke. Sue Me.

My brother and I would definitely watch this streaming.
