Why not enter? It's not too expensive, and everyone who enters has a chance to win a prize.

I just want to take a moment to encourage people to review the rules. I made a couple of minor changes last week and this morning. Nothing drastic, I simply added some provisions to deal with some of the finer points including:

- What to do if one or both entrants are not present at the time of their match
- What to do in the event of an auto-fail (which should only happen if both players stop playing altogether)
- Stating that entrants must be present for the drawing in order to win a prize

never played pump it up b4. Don't know any songs. I might give it a try though. but its very doubtful due too lack of experience of the game.

Pump is new in this area, and that's why I've specifically structured this tournament to try and make it fun for people of all skill levels--even those who have never played before at all.

If you're coming out anyway, I'd definitely encourage you to participate. I'm doing my best to make it a fun event for all, and the better participation we get will make future events more likely and and justify expansion.

I have only played a small hand full of time and i will be going. This isnt about the tourney it is more for the Social aspect for me. Also i hope the song GO! isnt to hard to FS to.

i <3 the song Go!, I also like Deja Vu and Greenhorn....iuno, i think they're pretty songs...so what if I like K-pop?

But yeah Ray, even though people who've played a lot like Ho, MonMotha and myself will be there, we'd enjoy it much more to see new people playing the game.

And really, the only one who has actually had almost ANY freestyle experience on Pump is probably Ho, yet I'm gonna try and Freestyle too, so comon, if you're going to be there, it's only 5 dollars, why not try it out? Plus it gets you into the raffle drawing anyways.

Go! has some potential as a freestyle, if you can figure out what to do with the freezes in the chorus, and if you're good at filling up some blank space. The arrow count is pretty small. I wish you the best luck!!

I have some ideas but for once i litteraly cant practice at all cause of the lack of PIU near me. But GO! and Mr.Larpus are my 2 fav songs on thier so if i get to round 2 i will probably play Mr. Larpus or Dr.M I love that song too.

Larpus and Dr. M are hard as nails. Remember, failing the song will lose you crowd momentum...

The tourney was one hell of a good time. I wanted to thank Brian for holding the event, and everyone else for showing us one hell of a time!

I can't wait for those pics and vids to come up :-D
