First 2 Burst is a local tournament for Guilty Gear and Skullgirls held at GameKatz in Independence, Missouri. This is a local tournament that I hope to make a recurring series. This event will be the "test run" to see what kind of numbers we can get, and from there hopefully I'll be able to figure what kind of schedule I'd like to run with these events (it won't be weekly, we're probably looking at once or twice a month). If you want to see Skullgirls/Guilty Gear locals in Kansas City, come out and support us!

As far as payout goes, the venue fee is $7, and I'm going to go ahead and set the entry fee at $5 per game. The Street Fighter weeklies at GameKatz have $3 entry (so with a $7 venue fee, it is $10 per player) but since these events aren't weekly, $3 seems kind of low. On the flip side, I want newer players to participate in these tournaments, so $10 seems like a bit much. $5 seems like the magic sweet spot. I'm more than willing to go up to $10 based on player feedback though.
