I need teams paid up by 10:30 AM on Saturday (1/21). Group stage will be starting at 11 AM, and I do not want to delay anything due to people rolling in late. Please spread the word on this. I will be saying this constantly to everyone on Friday, so there's no excuse if you show up late on Saturday and "didn't know."

You can find me at the admin table to pay me in-person. Cash only, so no Venmo / PayPal or anything.

After group stage, there will be about an hour lunch break. After that, the double-elimination bracket will start. It is imperative that this bracket goes as quickly as possible, especially the losers bracket. Literally every single event, either some player or team disappears for like 1-2 hours without telling me, which causes a heavy delay. I have come within minutes of being ready to hand out disqualifications for this, so please do not test my patience on this. I try my ass off to make sure the tournament runs as smoothly as possible, as well as finishing at a decent time. On top of this, I have other tournaments to run, so please be respectful of my time and everyone else's.

There's a melee tournament on Saturday.

Connie started a similar sheet, so both of you may want to make sure everything looks correct: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TrOdxcSvgMmOZQSWrOl040YLMHN-wb2HEvrqAPEWyOs/edit?usp=sharing

Reminder that the deadline for laptop rentals ends at 11:59 PM ET on 1/7.

You must add the laptop rental to your ticket (if you haven't already done so) by then. Monitor rentals do not have a deadline.

I have spent dozens of hours on this during 2022. After many interviews and reviews, I determined that it was best he doesn't go. I can confirm he's not attending the LAN and he knows this.

You buy spectator passes at the event. Spectator passes are $10. Additionally, you can now buy spectator passes online as well.

Our discount code for the nearby hotel expires TOMORROW, Dec 29th at 11:59pm! If you haven't booked a hotel room, do it now! You can book your room here: https://tinyurl.com/rgblan5hotel

Another reminder: when you click that link it defaults to include the night of the 19th in your booking. You only need that if you purchased an early access ticket. If you plan on arriving on Friday, make sure to change your booking dates!

We have more time to secure the laptop rentals!

The new deadline to rent laptops is now January 7th!

As mentioned in the previous post, if you miss this deadline, I cannot help you.

The deadline to rent laptops and monitors is December 31st January 7th.

If you miss this deadline, I cannot help you. Please do not procrastinate on this.

This never matters, because prem/div1/invite/whatever will always exist as "the current best players of the scene right now", no matter how strong or weak they are. Prem/div1/invite exists whether there's 20 low div / open teams or 200 low div / open teams.

We will provide ethernet cables for you if you got a laptop rental.
