The dream of vids being uploaded won’t die.
go killa ya self xD
no u.
Yeah, I completely understand all the faults that happened at the former IC2 and that’s why everything has been completely revamped. The next one is two days long. This time around registration will be done just like Final Round (where you fill out a piece of paper and mark which games you want to register for and pay for them), and this time around the catering food will be pizza instead of fries and chicken fingers. And there will be someone handing out the food and giving it to everyone with gloves on instead of just the community jumping in and getting all the food.
And again, as far as the cramping of the room, I never expected a turnout even near what that was. I thought maybe about 50-60 people not 100+ people thus since preparations weren’t made for that many people and it was far exceeded there were problems. But I couldn’t just turn people away because I had way more people than I expected. That’s why the next venue is two days and double the size of the previous venue. The tournament outgrew itself far quicker than I had expected and completely caught me off guard.
But trust me, I’ve heard all the complaints and I took them all into consideration with this new venue. And this time around, no one is coming into the venue without paying for a badge first or redeeming their equipment for a badge. As far as equipment goes, you must come in during 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. in order to get free or reduced entry for your equipment. After that, I cannot do anything for you.
Remember, IC is only five months old (with the first one being at the very end of June). I never ever expected to get the attendance of so many so quickly within a mere four month lifespan. The first one was the very last weekend of June of this year. Many tournaments it can take the fourth or fifth time to break 100+ entrants. Especially when the host of the tournament is not known in the community at all like myself.
In the end IC2 was well yeah a fiasco, disaster, but I would just like for it to be known that this will not happen again since I know what I am up against as far as attendance and secondly the staff is far better this time around, the venue will be two days long, and the person renting out the room to me is not only my friend but he is a gamer as well and told me if my tournament runs over past it’s time he will let me stay as long as needed to make sure it finishes. In fact, he’s going to be at the tournament participating in events as well.
Lastly as far as the videos go, I am starting with the Arcana Heart vids tonight and then so on from there.
I am glad to see your response, I am definitely going to attend IC3. Despite my rants, I did have fun, and am eager to go to another tournament. Since there are already very few tourneys in the south anyway, I have to make the most of what we have and am glad that this tourney is close
