Are you still unable to connect? It would be alright to postpone it to next week if everyone is okay with it. Hopefully yours will work tomorrow so some people can enjoy it this weekend.


I took the steps that Einsam outlined and it connected briefly but I didn't manage to complete a race. 

 

Let's see how it goes. If people do have issues or difficulties connecting we can call it off then.

Yeah, hopefully it'll work for people but if not then things can always be postponed.

The tourney starts automatically taking in racers at 5:30 PM EDT. You can check what time that is in your timezone in the OP.

VGC Tourney 1: 6274-3026-4500
VGC Tourney 2 (If tourney 1 overflows): 8958-0387-0435

Tourneys start at 5:30 (17:30), make sure to go to tourney 2 if tourney 1 overflows!


Like MK7's communitys, there can be multiple groups playing within a single tourney, atleast I'm pretty sure that's the case. That would mean we may not actually know if the first group is full or not. Tourneys can be joined prior to the start date thankfully, so I suggest we do that so we know when the first group is full. What woulda been best though is if you divided up everyone who's gonna play into groups yourself and just tell em where to go. That way no overflow confusion and the groups will be evenly distributed.

It probably would've been best, but people have dropped out and new people have joined just recently so the list has changed multiple times. Hopefully this can work out better next week.
