I called my local Gamestop and they said they aren't having one on Feb 3rd. What's the best way for me to force them to have one? |

I don't think you can force a shop to have a tourny, organise one yourself if you want it that bad.
p.s. if you like, everyone else can ignore I said this and keep on with the humorous responses. |

Better yet, hide the bomb in one of the thousands of game cases, and have it play banana phone... if nothing else, they may give in based on pure annoyance (or end up like this) |

I don't really mean force them, I mean: "How could I convince them to have a Tournament in my area?"
And I'm really serious about this, I would really like to play with someone near or above my level on this game, none of my friends are any good ;_; |

For a serious answer, just be persistent. Talk to the manager. Find other people who are interested. Create a signature list to show the manager that these people are interested. This kind of persistence is what gets people to realize that they should do it.
DISCLAIMER: bomb != persistence... rather, bomb == arrest warrant and terrorism charges (for anyone out there who was actually considering it...)

Is there a list of Gamestop's having the tourney somewhere? I might drive an hour, but more than that is pushing it. |

I'll be in Park City, Utah for the Sundance Film Festival from Jan. 18-23, which is probably fairly close to your area. But that doesn't help you out since there probably won't be any GH around. _________________

Make friends?
Seriously, though, show GH to, like, human beings who like music, and once they play they'll be into it. |
