Talk to Jinks. IMO he is the most relaible and experience worthy when it comes to this kind of thing. He has been trying to set something up at the PCC for a while but those uncles aren’t acting right haha.
I have been to Hi-Score and a couple of LAN centers that were also somewhat unsuccessful at running tournaments because while their intentions were good, they quite didn’t understand what could keep players showing up in mass and then staying at their events. I think that if they (Hi-Score) really want it to work, and listen to our reasonable suggestions, then something positive for both sides will come to fruition.
I’m thinking like something we used to do at PNT. That was a good look. Lot’s of feature matches, MM’s, and over all hype. I think that is what we need to work towards getting back.
Tournaments are good but what we are really looking into doing is starting a weekly, like once a week hold a sessions for a few hours maybe stream it, it does bring in some advertisement and word of mouth.
Thanks for the replies K1 and dsinnie, I’ll PM jinks when i get a chance today. Hi Score has new ownership, and like I said, she’s enlisted the help of my bro while he’s home from college to try and understand better what people want. He’s already orchestrating an pre-MLG Raleigh LAN there that looks like it’s going to fill up the place, so I figured I’d reach out to the FGC and see if something could get started there since they’ve got the monitors and setups. Appreciate all of your guys’ help!
Shit just happens what can I say…Drunk Girl passed out face first on the kitchen floor " I want some Dick! " can’t believe no one stepped up to the plate lmao
