The Cal Poly Pomona Games Room, Etc. is hosting another fighting game tournament on Saturday October 7, 2006 at 1 PM. We will open at noon for check-in.
So far, we have MvC2, CvS2, 3S, T5:DR, and KOF XI for the tournament. We’re still deciding on including SC III and SSF2T, since those games don’t have a good turnout here. But if there’s enough demand for them, we’ll include it.
Each game is going to be double elimination. For KOF XI, we’re banning the time released characters for now.
It’s gonna be pay to play and a $5 entrance fee for each game you enter. Cash prizes will be distributed to the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places for each game.
Hahaha, yeah, I know, I know. We’ve been telling him this whole summer, but you know how our vendor is. He’ll fix it the day before the tourney. Thanks for the heads up, though.
Do you have an XI machine at the game room ?
If so, I really would like to go there, and try to play some new peeps besides the same old boring mexicans Im used to.
Like at what day/time I could find some comp.
Btw, does anyone know whats the button layout and the sticks used ?
DarkPrince: I want to try that too, but like Nam said, it ain’t gonna happen with just one cabinet. Maybe I can convince our vendor to bring in some extras for the tournament but the way things work, it probably isn’t gonna happen.
**roconchatumare: ** Our button layout is like this:
135 o LP HP EX
24x r LK HK
Our sticks are the ones without the knob on the top, and they’re more on the tight side. The buttons are caved out like the Japanese cabinets, but they feel sturdier. Most of our KOF XI players come in around 11 AM and usually stay until 2 PM, with maybe one or two guys hanging around until 4 PM. I told a few of our KOF players about the tourny, and they’re interested in joining. One of them’s a female. I’ve been told that she was kicking the crap out of everybody at Anime Expo, but then again, that was at AX.
Btw, do you know where I can find free parking ?
Last time I was at Poly was on EVO 2004, so I dont remember excatly where the gameroom was located or the best place to park.
This sounds pretty interesting. I have been in AI and SA, and I couldnt play there because of the button layout …
I really hope I meet new peeps and good comp this tuesday then.
Yeah, I should’ve mentioned that school doesn’t start until this Thursday. If you come here this Tuesday, nobody’s gonna be here. But we’ll be open though from 11 AM til 3 PM.
Yeah, I tried out the layout at AI and SA, and it just didn’t work out for me either. Well, maybe because I’m just used to our layout. It’s also the layout I use on NeoRAGE/Kawaks.
As for parking, it should be free on Saturday. If you wanna park free on the weekdays, you have to park along the street on Temple Ave. Just expect there to be alot of cars on Temple Ave. I’ll try to edit a map of our campus to show you where to go.
Hey man, I’m tryin to get people to come for KOF XI :mad: :razz:
