What is CEO?

Community Effort Orlando started out as a combined effort by the Fighting Game Community in Orlando and the rest of the state of Florida to salvage a canceled Event.

I mean, the game probably would be a lot more popular than it is now if they hadn't made such questionable decisions as far as the art goes. It's kind of their own fault.

Either way, I've gotten the impression that Skullgirls is doing better as of late. Combo Breaker was quite big for Skullgirls (105 players) and it seems like a lot more tournament organizers are supporting Skullgirls to some extent.

No PM, not interested.

Really tired of places dropping PM for a chance at some nintendo bux. PMs what made me interested in Smash, and with it being pushed away I'm rapidly losing interest.

Watching MKX and KI mite b cool though.

r4ptureReally tired of places dropping PM for a chance at some nintendo bux. PMs what made me interested in Smash, and with it being pushed away I'm rapidly losing interest.

PM sits in this weird legal area which has caused to so many TOs to be unwilling to support it as SSB's have caught nintendo's eye again. Nintendo can shut down any event with PM, and with that kind of risk no sponsor is going to give a TO the support they need to keep their event running smoothly. Plus there just isn't the infrastructure to support PM. Jugglguy talked about it about a week ago on the MIOM channel; There's companies to rent stuff from if you need more TVs or whatever that the attendees won't bring. However none of the suppliers have wiis with PM installed, and the PM community has established that they can't be counted on. If a pure smash event like Big House can't get the PM community to support their game beyond tiny locals then a mixed event like this has no chance, so why take the risk?

Back on topic: Looks like fun, but I'm nowhere close enough to get there nor do I have the time.

Yeah the whole risking a major tournament being shutdown isnt that good of a risk to take. PM still has a decent community though and there are a lot of locals supporting the game still.
