Uh, hi guys...

Nestled in the barren tundra outside of Philadelphia in February sits our second most favorite Big E Gaming tournament -- Winter Brawl! (Summer Jam being a distant third.)

In the absence of any other volunteer or nomination, I guess I'll be your TO. Normally, I am not to be trusted. However, I am also lazy. So, I'm going to let Challonge do all the work instead of floating the bracket like a senior week keg for my own sick amusement. So, hey, you're getting a fairer shake than Capcom Cup. Congrats.

And for heaven's sake, SHOW UP IF YOU CAN! We had impressive numbers at NEC. Make Big E sorry yet again that he didn't put us in the lineup.

Good luck, if I CAN make it we'll see but I won't bother risking it.

HAVE FUN! (SeedSageandSonic)
 
in there lol

2-3 people can stay at my parent's house with me. I live ~15 minutes away from the venue and have a car and all that good stuff. Send me a PM if interested (please only ask if like I've at least talked to you a couple times lol. I wouldn't care if it was my own home, but it feels wrong inviting total strangers in to my parent's house).

Haven't been playing a while so I'm out of practice. I'll see if I can maybe make the trip Sunday, but it's February, and fuck the cold. Wow this might actually be a real life case of staying home.

@dapurplesharpie held me at gunpoint and told me to go. *sigh*. What time are people getting there so I don't show up and miss the first half of everything again?

@WingZero YO WOORD YOUR GOING PogChamp
 
Requesting off work ASAP.
Other than this I'll probably just be doing casuals tbh.

Totally ready to go 0-2 :PUN:


Also, somewhat hoping Beowulf is out by the time of the tournament. Just somewhat.

Triple-edit: Hope there's still room at the comfort inn because I don't wanna drive fourty minutes to an hour on 95 every day

Has anyone grabbed a Comfort Inn room yet? If not, I'm gonna. And when I do, who's staying with me? Send me a PM if interested.
 
You're probably asking if this is legit? Are we really cleared to run tournament?

Fret not, we are as legit as can be. Because word has come down from Big E himself, who in his very own words told me:

"If you have the set ups it's ok."

WE'RE WEARING HIM DOWN, BABY! WE'RE WEARING HIM DOOOOOWWWWWWN!
 
Oh hey. I should. Probably pre-reg, huh.

Edit: Oh hey, wait, do I need to? Is this another "Spectator pass" thing or do I need the full thing?

I'm curious about this as well. There was some confusion at NEC as to which pass we needed and I'd like to be clear on that before I spend the money.

Same here, don't want to spend more money than I have to. Also, this time, I'm bringing my deck of Cards Against Humanity, and it's the big deck.

Not going, I don't know.

Just pay competitor pass to be safe, until Elky figures it out for yall D:

Pretty sure you'll need to pay competitor, Big E is getting everyone to pay for it to help regardless of main game/side so yeah.
 
I'll try to get a firm answer, but it seems like Big E is transitioning to making EVERY competing player get a competitor pass, main game or not.

Alright. I'm getting a competitor pass and not entering any main games then, as I usually do.
