3rd Strike, GGXX and other games on 3/17 and 3/31 in NYC, free

Hey, guys. My anime club’s running two free events, and we’d like you to come down. They’re both totally free, and there’s gonna be prizes at the second one (the one at March 31)

Let me just paste from the site, it’ll explain everything. BTW, we’ll have many game tournaments and other contests at our convention on March 31st, all of which will have prizes that you can win.

The Mini-Mini-Con will be held on March 17, 2006
in the awfully comfortable Regna Lounge at Polytechnic University.
We’ll be setting up as much entertainment as we can for you, and it’ll
be totally free!

Entertainment like…

Dance Dance Revolution
Street Fighter III: Third Strike
Super Smash Brothers Melee
Anime Showings
Karaoke
and more!

The event will begin at 12 and end at 8. Afterwards, a large group of us will go out for dinner, and you’re welcome to join us.

Directions to Polytechnic University can be found here at
http://www.poly.edu/directions/ When you arrive, let the security
staff know you’re here for our event.

Of course, this isn’t all that we’ll be doing this year. The
Mini-Mini-Con is just a preview of our flagship event, the Spring
Festival! The Spring Festival will be held on March 31, the last
Saturday of the month. It’ll be a lot like the Mini-Mini-con… except
it’s much, much better. It’ll be from 10 AM-8 PM, and it’ll occupy 8
rooms in Polytechnic University. We’ll have lots of great anime to
show you, plenty of prizes to give out, and tons of interesting
original events.

What kind of original events?

song at all) on a real karaoke set.

Anyway, yes, the tournament will be running GGXX Slash. If you guys want to bring your modded/japanese PS2s, that would be great. That way, we can have more machines running the game, if necessary.

What are the prizes and rules for these tournaments?

The prizes are yet-to-be-determined, but there will be prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd places. The format of the tournaments will change based on how many entrants there are (each tournament is allocated 2 hours).

The schedule is up for viewing at www.pasweb.info . The event’s free, so bring as many friends as you like.

See you then!
