EVO consistently, year after year fails to meet the standard that other FGC/Smash events in many ways, most notably brackets/scheduling. A part of me really wants to try to change things, but I've honestly given up at this point. It honestly feels it falls on deaf ears.

I don't know if its because its smashers "complaining" and thats why we're ignored, despite how much money we bring to EVO. Regardless, I really hope the rest of the FGC eventually starts realizing that we deserve that our biggest, most profitable event to be the best it can be

I'm sorry if this feels unconstructive and confrontational. I really don't mean it to be - I just don't know how we can change things when the schedule and brackets are released this late with no open channels asking for critisicm, while constant mistakes are repeated...

I may for example have my disagreements with @CEOJebailey (and i certainly am to blame for it getting blown up) but I never once have felt like what I say falls on deaf ears. It feels clear as day that both of us want the best possible event, but we disagree on how to do it.

with Mr Wizards, erm, controversial personality, especially towards smashers, along with limited changes each year, I think it really contributes to me and many others feeling like EVO doesn't care about us despite what we give to them. It just sucks, idk what else to say.

Yeah, I feel you. A ton of issues fgc side too that don't necessarily get swept under the rug if I'm obnoxious enough (in person) but nothing ever gets properly addressed. Tbh, sadly our perception of evo from a competitor standpoint is that it's a convention 1st, tournament 2nd.

I've gotten screwed by a bunch of poor logistics and bad decisions on staff end, but what can you do lol. Even on "our" end, I don't really think it's something re: Smash more than just evo period. Honestly even in isolated severe cases of fault it's just "uhh. Shit, sorry."
