I'm really upset I didn't get picked >.>
i don't know how they gave the numbers out, but mukman said he got there at 7.30am and was in the 300's and if they were random that just bad luck, but if he was the 300's person i would have been screwed. i was set to drive 5 hours to get there by 8.00am, so i would have time to mess around before registration actually began.
hopefully next year will be bigger since in 2005 it was at 20 some cities and had tremendous turnouts for jaa. last year it was in two cities, and this year about 6. so hopefully next year there is at least 10 to give people a more fair shot to get in without wasting time or so or at least make it so they will accommodate everyone
Yeah what happen was i got there at 7:30.. i stood in line and as you register they give you numbers that are based on the national pokedex so i was the 353 person then the basicaal just pick from theos numbers at random... i remember the top 10 was like
1,2,3,4,7,9,13....so that means outta the first 10 people to register4 people didnt get in and to be the 5th and 6th person in line and to not get in means he was in line extra early...and couldn't play
at leaste in the grinder if you are in line before the cut off you get to play
The tournament won't be taken seriously until they make it bigger and make it open to all, and not to a handful of people that show up.
