    @brains so my buddy wants to sign up for multiple tourneys on Friday particularly SSBB, SC5, LL, GE...now seeing you were talking about overlapping would it be possible for him to sign up for Lumines Live (4-6), Soul Caliber 5 (6-8) & the second time slot of Brawl (9-11) or is this a no no? If a no no what about him just signing up for Soul Caliber & the second slot for brawl? Thanks!!

    Back to back is just fine, and I'm amped to see someone so excited about tourneys. He can certainly sign up for the second block of Brawl.
    I have two questions about Puzzle Bobble at PAX East 2013.

    (1) Is the tournament going to be two out of three games to a match, two out of three matches to an elimination, and two hours of time allotted for the tournament? Last year we hand single matches, winner takes all, and we got booted from the room after only an hour.
    (2) (slightly off topic) If some Puzzle Bobble players wanted to put together a meet-up to play more later that weekend, what kind of support could we get? Puzzle Bobble XBLA loaded on a console or two in the free play area (not the console tournament enforcers' responsibility)? A flyer in the tournament room where people could sign up and commit to being in a certain place at a certain time (doable?)?

    Regarding 1) I'll get back to you on the games/match/round, but there is definitely two hours slotted for the tourney. Keep in mind that this includes practice time, setup, brackets, rules, and actual play.

    Regarding 2) I've checked with Console Freeplay, and they don't think they've got it on their Xboxes.

    @brains is there spectating allowed during console tourneys?
