Emp reference. You probably won't get that reference either.

 

[Nabs]

whats a salty suite?

It's an after-hours session filled with top players and the matches you really want to see. Lots of money gets thrown around.

I might have to unretire my old twitch_snitch account for this

Has it been confirmed they are still doing that tonight?

 

[QisTopTier]

whats a salty suite?

Side matches typically where bets are had. Not part of the tournament.

Or in this case most likely the name of the lawsuit that is going to slam that hotel

yessssss

so truck will get there in an hour or two. sounds like every thing will be set up and ready to go by midnight.

haven't heard anything about the internet at the venue, though. hopefully we can get a test stream tonight. salty suite?

 

[evilalien]

Large convention centers like that usually have good internet available. It's just a matter of paying for it.

Talk about clutch!

oh happy day~

 

[Revven]

Holy moly at how much space there is...

Thank You @Twitch. This new space is amazing. Should be here again next year should be CES: Community Effort Smash!

[BY2K]

In a day of awful news, I want to say it's heartwarming how another disaster turned into a collective effort by the community and the people at Twitch and Redbull Esports.

We in here.

 

[Flare]

It's great to see everything rebound like this. Great stuff.

 

[xaszatm]

While this is great, I"m kind of worried on how they will be doing sound. That doesn't look like the best audio set up for a tournament.

 

[Exr]

Sometimes community is a beautiful thing. Fantastic work these guys are all doing, very happy to hear that the event will continue.

 

[VoidVR]

Man.. major props to everyone involved for salvaging this in a spectacular way in such a short amount of time. Think I'll get a twitch sub and buy a few redbulls today even though I'm poor as shit.

 

[Spinosaurus]

The community's dedication is really admirable. Major props to everyone.

 

[PadWarrior]

Wonder how many gc adapters will be stolen

and to think this almost didn't happen. Go smash community and twitch. <3

Biggest speakers possible to kind of get sound effects out to the crowd. All you need really at events like this.

Should be a lot less noise from the setups and stuff as well. Should dissipate nicely throughout that gigantic warehouse of a room.

Wonder how many gc adapters will be stolen

Yeah I hope people aren't fucking dicks about the adapters. Hopefully there's some kind of device on the setups to secure them to the systems to at least somewhat discourage people from stealing them.

Luckily they don't go for a hundred dollars online anymore.

 

[phanphare]

wow, really awesome to see how this situation turned around so quickly

 

[SmackAttack]

It really can be. This is quite something to see.

 

[El Sabroso]

Dammit, Jebailey lmao

that explains why it has that part on the NJ news link

 

[Scythesurge]

So happy there's a new venue, this weekend will still be fun after all!!

 

[smurfx]

Hope there aren't a ton of dq's tomorrow thanks to the venue being so far from where everybody is staying. I know there are shuttles but there will always be stragglers.

 

[Xeroblade]

Luckily they don't go for a hundred dollars online anymore.

As we post, someone is selling one for close to that in b/s/t lol.

 

[EndlessSky]

Still no word on how good the internet is? I don't want to start getting hype and then be disappointed at there being no stream.

 

[GG-Duo]

I wonder about network capacity at the new venue...

 

[foxuzamaki]

Everything is almost turning out for the best.

 

[QisTopTier]

Guys at worst they can record and rebroadcast after its over

 

[OminousShadow]

Damn, that new venue is gigantic. Amazing how they were able to secure one on such short notice.

 

[smurfx]

I wonder about network capacity at the new venue...

I know spooky sometimes streams with 4g when venue internet sucks.

 

[Pics_nao]

So where's the new venue at? I really wanna swing by tomorrow.
