NATIONAL SMASH 4! FOR NATIONAL GAMING DAY! AT YOUR LIBRARY! YES!
NATIONAL SMASH 4 is an event that happens on NATIONAL GAMING DAY AT YOUR LIBRARY 2011, SATURDAY NOVEMBER 12. Libraries across the USA play SUPER SMASH BROS MELEE 2-player matches against other libraries starting at 1 PM EST , with the top scoring libraries advancing to NATIONAL FINALS starting at 3 PM EST!
To participate in the tournament, you need:
1. A Wii, 2 controllers a screen, and BRAWL disc; 2. A BRAWL-tested wifi or wired internet connection for the Wii and BRAWL friend code; 3. A gtsystem account for your library
Then, on SATURDAY NOVEMBER 12 2011, starting at 1 PM EST / 10 AM PST, get your wii online, connect to other libraries, and play 2-player matches against other libraries, recording your score in your gtsystem event.
Once you've got your equipment and your wii has a working internet connection, contact us at gtsystem@aadl.org to set up a brawl test! See http://wiki.gtsystem.org/test_your_brawl_setup for full testing instructions. If you don't test your connection in an actual brawl match, it probably won't work on game day!
After you've tested your BRAWL connection, add your library and your friend code to the list below! Be sure not to leave this to the last minute to avoid not getting added to other libraries friends rosters!
If you don't already have a gtsystem site, just email us at gtsystem@aadl.org and let us know what you'd like your site code to be (like AADL or DPL or whatever abbreviation you tend to use) and the full name of your library or library system, and we'll mail you a moderator login for your new site. Let us know if you're not sure if you have a gtsystem site too, and we'll get you set up.
If you're still feeling clue-deficient, try How to setup and score NGD brawl, which tells you everything you need to know, and includes a video!
