FOOD:
The hotel does not allow food inside. Lots of places to eat around the area. Especially on Queen St. There will be NO ALCOHOL allowed in this tournament. You will get thrown out of the event with no refund if you are caught with Alcohol in the venue. Fair Warning.
PARKING:
Please keep in mind that this hotel is in the Downtown Core. I will look for the best parking in the area but don’t be smart and think you can break the system. Read the signs carefully and make sure you check your car or get towed. This is a warning to everyone who is driving. TTT will not be held responsible for parking or tow tickets.
Parking in the Area right beside the Hotel:
Saturday: $25 from 6a-11:59p
Sunday: $10 for the whole day
I do suggest that players uses TTC.
Osgoode Station is 2 blocks away.

BRING YOUR OWN STICKS/CONTROLLERS:
The console equipment will be labeled and registered to ensure its safety. However, please be careful with your sticks. Furthermore, if you know you’re attending and you do not have a stick to use, make sure you have a friend who can donate. All singles matches will enforce a 5 minute rule and if you can’t find a stick within that time you will be disqualified. This is advance warning and will not be brought up again.
BROKEN STICKS/BUTTONS:
If you have any stick/button problems at anytime, STOP PLAYING, get up and inform the director. The stick will be fixed/changed and the match will be replayed. If you decide to whine about the sticks after the match, YOU WILL NOT GET A REPLAY MATCH.
EVENT RAFFLE
What kind of TTT tournament would it be without a raffle. More info about raffle prizes in the coming weeks.
