Apex 2015 has some serious trouble...

LogicalDrm

The Super Smash Bros mega-tournament held this weekend is facing some serious issues. They seems to hit bad news one after another.

 

First there were the good things like sponsorship from Nintendo and the event being largest Super Smash Bros tournament ever. Then it all went downhill. It sarted with alleged sexual harassment by one of organizers. Then some bad weather with the great blizzard early this week. The weather is causing more and more problems. First it was only some cancelled flights. Then the venue parking garage collapsed. And now, after two false fire alarms, marshals have closed two or more of conference rooms because of risk of collapsing.

 

This certainly is sad thing. I hope they manage to get everything or most running again. As new fan to scene.

I've been following this situation in Twitter (quite funny since I don't have account) while watching some HS and CSGO from Assembly Winter. Seems like Apex has some light in their cave after all. Twitch has made it happen and got them another venue. There will be official announcement at some point soon.

 

You got to appreciate all volunteers and staff. I mean they were going to stream and play the tournament from hotel rooms if anything. Or so rumors said anyway.

Apex is happening. 0 cancelled events. Livestreams are up (and have been for a while).

Yeah. Its really nice to attendees and sponsors to step up like that and provide means for them. I've been watching since streams started.
