I may try and make it to this

soooo is the entire tournament double elim or is it single until you make it out of your pool?

Everyone.gets put into pools of 4-6 players. Round robin ensues. Top 2 qualify into a double elim bracket. 1st gets winners, 2nd losers.

Then it’s standard from there.

Bump this is way behind on page 5 lol

So MK is not doing pools just SSF4 and MVC3?

Cant wait! i think imma play everything this time around…

Correct.

are we going to have any team events? i think marvel teams would be a great addition…time permitting of course

I second this.

thats 2!

Stay tuned for any possible news about a venue change. Do not fear, the event will go on as planned.

Oh, and due to AH3 still not being available for download via PSN, that tourney will be cancelled in favor of Xbox BBCS2

I doubt we are doing the arcade tournys either

Update: We will have another venue. Can we get a head count of people who are going on the first page?

what the hell page are you on?
