Code:
 Start_Budokai()
                set category="Admin"
                set name="Start Budokai"
                world<<"<b><i><u><font face=arial><font color=black><font size=3>Budokai has been scheduled to start in 1 day, you can sign up if you make your way to the arena and make your way to the sign up Office" 
                Box_Office()
mob
    proc
        Box_Office(mob/M in world)
            alert(usr,"You can now purchase tickets for the budokai event or you can sign up if you wish, Thank you for taking part.","Box Office")
                        
mob
    verb
        Budokai()
            set src in oview(1)
            Box_Office2()
            
mob
    proc
        Box_Office2(mob/M in world)
            var/list/L = new
            L += "Ticket"
            L += "Sign Up"
            L += "Forget it"
            var/answer = input("Hello what would you like to do? [M]?") in L
            switch(answer)
                if("Ticket")
                    M << "You have purchased a seating ticket, thank you"
                    del(M)
                if("Sign Up")
                    src << "You have chosen to participate in the budokai"
                if("Forget it")
                    src << "You've changed your mind"
                    return


Ok heres the deal I worked it all out, but I'm just having problem branching it all together, Ok all this code is trying to do the following: Ok Apon clicking start budokai, it's meant to give to a message saying, you can now purcahse your tickets etc as you can see in the code, then I want to make it so if and only if you click start budokai does it give you the tab option to ask the box office merchent for tickets etc, at the moment all it's doing is, start budokai, gives message, at any time you can go to the box office and ask for tickets, I just need to make it so apon clicking start budokai, it will only give you the verb to ask for tickets. It sounds confusing but I'm sure if you read through and the code it may make scense. Thanks for reading.:

You should use a list to store registered players.

e.g.
if(input("Register?") in list("Yes", "No") == "Yes")
 list that contains mobs += src

proc/excuteTourny()
 for(var/mob/m in list that contains mobs)
  m.loc = tourny location

I personally wouldn't actually store their mob in a list, as people can log off & the such. Instead, he should learn to associate text with the client.

Well then add a check when the player logs out. -_-

Yes, he could. But, that's not always the better choice. I have a datum that controls every aspect of fighting tournaments. From choosing the opponents after voluntary sign-up, adding in PC opponents incase there's an un even number, TKO's, leaving the fighting area, leaving the game, and awarding the winner's money, championship status, etc...it even records the fight from a ringside reporter perspective for people to "read" about it that weren't there at the time.

Whether you create a datum or not, a list is the best choice to handle the registered players. Objections?
