Chun Report post Posted September 1, 2010 I have confidence in the new heads of NCI for their current farther north plans. I just wanted to mention the options SJSU since the school year began in a worst case scenario. One reason why the Berkeley venue was more favorable was because the tournament date was scheduled right before the SJSU school year began, which meant special pricing due to shorter building hours, special requirements from staff because the school year hadn't started yet, and the day of August 28th was literally an Open House/Staff Meeting Weekend. Now that school starts once more, the rates that were originally much higher fall to their flat all-day rates, so the previously proposed ballrooms are now a more flexible option. The summary of previous snags were that doors just closed and ended at 5PM; clubs have various meetings in the building tilll at least 9 PM standard with the year's beginning. However, the hours are not updated yet for this year's after budget cuts, so I could be wrong on this; this was before the previous summer, so this is justification. However, I've also been actively figuring out how to hold meets in the class buildings with outsiders, as the CS Club was able to hold a local Smash tournament late at night till nearly overnight last year. LAN parties of the past also allowed access to classroom setups inside buildings, with projectors. It's an alternate idea from the SU that I've put on standby but are not 100% on. If the reasoning for not SJSU is because of the parking situation or a dislike for the San Jose Area, then I can accept that, that's why I'm saying it's a backup. As a side note, any plans to continue monthlies for BB at all? P.S. Yes, I know that wasn't the first NCI ever, I obviously meant BB-wise. I've read the threads through, just never attended them because I didn't play GG/MB. ~Chun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dacidbro Report post Posted September 1, 2010 Ginseng doesn't post anyway; I don't think he even saw it. You would really blow all your money the day before instead of showing up to a tournament you could easily win/hang out with people you never see? Fucking scrub Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZONG_one Report post Posted September 1, 2010 GINSENG, THE SELF PROCLAIMED IMPERIAL TROLL, DOESN'T POST? Stay Free. I would be hanging out with those people at the restaurants/bars/etc. You know, doing something to strengthen our bonds, outside of fighting games? lol. And if it's a tournament that I'd easily win, you're damn right I'd blow all my money the day before. The day after, I'll have full pockets again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
