Idea on how to let the EU Tournament scene grow

[PND OmegaK]

I'd definitely try my best to make it out to things like this, but obviously it will always come down to available funds at the time.

Count me in, obviously.

Count me in! but exactly what Omega said also

 

[llabslb]

How is venues going to be handled and how is this funded. Kickstarter

 

[Braindead]

tbh Maastricht would be a great Location for me

Maastricht and Belgium are good locations for me.

My only problem at the moment is time. I have exams starting at the end of this month till mid September. I won't be able to attend anything until then

 

[Asodimazze]

This is a great idea! If I'll have available funds, I'll surely come by!

 

[MK_Al]

I'd love to see the european mk community support each other more, but I don't even know if there are streams to watch from european tournaments or dojos. So pls post your stream urls if there are any...

 

[Youphemism]

I would love love love it to be able to make it out somewhere and play all you guys but as OmegaK said it's down to if I have the money. I won't have any until maybe September but then I'll start saving so I can come whoop your asses

 

[SMASHOFDOOM]

Great idea. Defo lemmi know when upcoming events are! I'm from London.

 

[st9rm]

awesome, great we're seeing so much response!
i will try to get an online signup up, just to see how many people actually came out
then it will be decided at what venue it's gonna be held
atm i'm thinking the dojo would be fine - virtualdojovienna.com for impressions if anyone wants to check it out

 

[Adagost]

I'd love to say i'm in but i'm not sure yet...

@st9rm @MK_Al I'm gonna try to join you guys at least for one foreign event though

That'd be great. Where are you from?

@st9rm as i said i'm definately down to travel anywhere in EU after august , it's definately a problem not having tournaments and we should remedy that.

Italy could easily host a tournament w proper time , especially in Milan.

I'm probably in Milan visiting the world expo in october...

If people like Milan in October ( and ofc there's the EXPO to visit wich is awesome btw ) , i can msg a few people and try to organize something , what do you guys think?

I was talking to some people and i think it might be a good idea to first pick a date, and then vote for a location - whoever is capable of hosting an event should post here. We're currently checking what we could offer in terms of location, money and stuff as well.

In the words of 'PND' Madzin - 'YEAHH!'

But this entirely depends on dedication and commitment of the players. We simply cannot afford to have players that sit at home and expect the numbers to be made up from the next guy.

So if you're reading this and you're a European player, it's on you!

 

[Falkunn]

I'm up for traveling wherever in Europe for tournaments. So long as A) I can get travel B) I get a new passport

 

[Dr Jackal]

Well I am the one from France. We can host a lot of tournament in France with our partnership with Warner Bros. (FH community)
I think it souldn't be a problem for us to travel, we did it for sweeden one month ago.

All the communities should more communicate between each other. As Neg B said (wassup bro ?) a tournament every 4 month in "EU" should be a great Idea. In France we have a tournament every the 2 months. We are planning to organize something bigger.

Don't forget that we have a French Major in September, I will try to communicate on that event soon as possible to let you the time to prepare the travel.

 

[Adagost]

@Dr Jackal

You're absolutely right and you delivered the best reason why.

We were planning to host a tournament in September too, also RFD (still waiting for the Lineup... PLEASE MKX!) is up in October,

proper communication and coordination is obviously the key here.

 

[Dr Jackal]

Yeah exactly, we should do a group somewhere, here or facebook I don't know, in order to have each "head" from each country in order to organize and communicate properly.

Maybe we can start to list each interlocutor per country ?

FRANCE : @Dr Jackal
UK : @PND_Ketchup @PND_Mustard ?
GERMANY : @Crathen (I was really happy to see you again in France for the MK cup, by the way next time I will pay you a vine bottle
AUSTRIA : @st9rm
GRECE :
BELGIUM :
SPAIN :
ITALIA :
List to complete...

Let's do a topic when the list is complete, and maybe a group.

 

[Mitsuownes]

Hey guys,

I am up too! I live in Germany but am willing to travel for some tournaments.

I hope we get something going!

 

[jokey77]

I'd definitely be up for this.

Wait, you are european!? If you come to Vienna, I am gonna invite you for a beer or a dozen! All these highclass saltreports will finally pay off, i guarantee!

Obviously I am gonna help out as much as I can, if an event is being held here in Vienna!

that absolutely makes sense
when are you guys planning to do the big tournament in september?
because afaik, red fight district is at the beginning of october and we were planning to do a tournament in austria in september
doesn't make sense if two tournaments are in the same month, so i guess we will just move the viennese tournament to another date, maybe november?

 

[Immortal]

Good idea.

We can try to make something happen here (in Poland) if people would like to come in / travel. We actually have a great venue for this, so that won't be a problem.
