Did anybody know if BlueCookies got in? From the looks of things, probably not, what with that many people showing up. :(
I wonder if his friend did; I loaned his friend a team for today, but I really doubt the friend got in either.
Well Vash should pull through to the top 4. :D

Just got back from phili.
Bluecookies, EE and son, TTS, myself, and a hand full of all the other smogers(last year's NYC's winner included) that i met did not make it in the draw. it was a whopping 610 plus entrants for seniors. Gl to Vash in phili.
It was great meeting all of you guys in person i hope we can see each other soon guys.

Anybody know what the highest number shown on the screen was when displaying who got in? Also what did they do for 493 and higher? Did they actually use Arceus for 493?
It was like 560 something iirc. No, there was no Arceus for 493 and was instead blank like the others that didn't correspond to a pokemon.
When TTS says nobody got in he really does mean it.. I think a lot of people that deserved to be in, Smogon related or otherwise, were turned down. Disappointing. Jonathan got in but lost in the first round to some bad luck against a Choice Scarf Dragon Rush Garchomp xD. Had I known the number of people attending I would have just slept in this morning.

I had 561.
I think it ended around 600.
I didn't see if Arceus was there though, haha.
I was looking for him most of the time; personal VGC rival of mine.
Couldn't spot him in the crowd, though I forgot what he was wearing.
I'm rooting for him too, hopefully he got in.
Well, I just got back home, and after a 2 hour drive and so much waiting I didn't get in =[.
I looked over at the registration table near the end of registration times, and about 980 Seniors showed up. It sucks, I didn't get to see the final match either, so many people were blocking the screen that I couldn't record it.
On the bright side I seen Marilland... :D
I took some pictures, I'll post them later if anyone wants to see them.

Amen to that.
It should've been there.
I mean, I'M from there.
To go from NY to PA, and then get sent back cause you just happen to not make the cut, really sucks.
...and a waste of money.
Yeah, when people say no smogoner got in, they mean it. There was a big group of 10 or so of us and none of us were selected. None of the top 8 players from NY last year were selected to even try a repeat performance. I did get a few pictures with Marilland, and this should make zerowing more jealous, but he even signed(gasp!) my German Koffing TCG card("Smogon"). The people who got in though were god awful. Even as late as the top 32 there were things like bubblebeam Empoleon, thunderbolt Rhyperior, Lv.39 Leafeon, Arial Ace/Blizzard Articuno, Dream Eater Spiritomb, and multiple Fly Salamences. What's even more sad is that a lot of those actually made top 16 x_x
I know how Vash placed, but I don't want to spoil it for him, so I won't say how he did :p

Seriously.
