Just come for casuals, it’s still fun as hell. Oh and some people might agree to money matches. Not me though.
i dont realy have fun playing casuals unless its agaisnt certain people
Maybe you’ll find that certain person there. Who’s your certain person Tober?
Wang: This time we only have T shirts and Cash so far as we can only get donations once a month, so look to the 24th for hopefully the same as last months ending tourney i hope.
Tober: The money on the line is dependant on the amount of people in the tourney and how the players want to divide it. If they want to at all.:rock:
is it possible to post a break down of what money is kept and what is given back?
from the best of my knowledge this info is in your handbook. I believe that the league takes 20% of the pot which we put directly back into the league. If you want specifics ask at the next tourney.
first of all, some of this is for me but it’s for others that are thinking about coming to the tournament. an example is toberlicious who just asked about how much the payout is. please announce the entry fee and prizes on this forum so that people who hasn’t joined yet are well informed.
There’s your entry fee and he already mentioned how the prize pay out is. Depends on how many come. Like for the minimal i think someone got 50 dollars and a bunch of goodies and i think a trophy last time. Which in the end is worth more than just the 50 dollar cash prize. So tell your friends to come down. The more that enter the tournies, the higher the pay out. Its what he said right above your post.
Calm down.
Aloha everybody!
I just wanted to formally announce the next event in our regular season!
“A Day Of Console Gaming!”
Date: Saturday, May 10th AND May 24th.
Place: Netwerx Internet & Games (1423 Kapiolani Boulevard, 2nd Floor - Between Pet’s Discount Warehouse & The Ala Moana Office Building)
http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&ie…,0.007231&z=17
Time: 1:00 p.m. - 11:00 p.m.
The capcom tournament games will all be run on 4 TV’s (20" CRT) We will be holding tournaments concurrently, so if you sign up for say Smash and GG you have to run back and forth. This is so we can move through the tourneys faster. Also remember that at least 8 people must register for a tournament to take place. Smash brothers will be on Netwerx LCD.
When we get to COD 4, whatever TVs are left over will be for casual play for you guys, I want to get some matches in myself and learn a thing or two.l
Tournaments can be held for the following games:
- Capcom vs. SNK 2 (PS2)
- Guilty Gear XX Accent Core (PS2)
- Marvel vs. Capcom 2 (Sega Dreamcast)
- Naruto: Ultimate Ninja 3 (PS2)** (if quota reached)
- Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike (PS2)
- Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Wii)
- Mario Kart WII (Wii)
- Call of Duty 4 (XBOX 360)*
- A team tournament can also be held for this game (2 man teams on own screen.) So, an additional quota of at least eight teams has been set. Otherwise its 8 people free for all.
** A tournament quota of at least twenty players has been set for this game.
Entry Fees
League Members: $10 per tournament
Non-League Members: $15 (see Membership Special.)
MEMBERSHIP SPECIAL: New League Members receive a 50% discount price for their first tournament. (which means, you join the league and you get to enter your first tournament for a total of $20)
NOTE: The league takes 20% of the pot to keep the league running. So an 8 man tourney which spots $80, we take 16. Then divide the rest between first, second, and third unless you guys want a winner take all. We also do that percentage based on player specifications.
NOTE: This membership card entitles you to attend all league events, and also gives you a 5% discount on game purchases at VG addict in nimitz center.
In order to complete the day’s event on schedule, the tournaments are being held concurrently. League members who remain at the venue until the end of the event are also asked to assist in the breakdown/cleanup process. Competitors are also encouraged to bring their own peripherals (controllers and/or arcade sticks) to the event. Please check with league staff upon arrival for last-minute changes and tournament information.

Now is there any info that this is missing? PLEASE READ THIS AS THE INFO HAS CHANGED SLIGHTLY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS!!
MAHALO,
Jeff Young Commissioner of the HVGL.
I think people would like to know before the next tourney so they can decide to go to the next tourney or not. I’d like to know what the specifics are and if there’s anything more than what you’ve posted.
Leviathan, weren’t you at the last tourney? Don’t you know how things run already? What exactly do you want to know? I could probably answer it. You havnt really specified what you are looking for. Just general statements which he generally answered. Please be specific. Its seeming more complicated than it has to be.
I know some of it went towards getting pizza for everyone, which was a nice gesture.
all my friends do come down. who’s not calm? lol
so i’m not complaining about prizes or anything. 100 bucks and a trophy was great! i believe the hvgl guys are doing an excellent job at these tournaments. i’m just trying to provide some constructive criticism towards the clarification of information provided to the players. no hate involved.
love you hvgl guys no homo
Toby doesn’t like playing casually with strangers. He doesn’t want to catch any more STD’s than he already has. He’s not much into the swinger lifestyle. Also - are you hitting on Toby? You could be his certain person, just wink at him, press his buttons, and play with his joystick next time you see him.
Hahaha just fucking with you Tober, you little nigglett!
See, now you sound good. Before it sounded like you were trying to drill people and i was trying not to sound too defensive. Tell your friends to come, and bring cake. Or else i’ll be thoroughly unhappy.
And i see what you did there. And understand what you were trying to do. (big words dont phase me:lol:) But man, you came off so strong.
Thats what i was going for with that post, if i put could i be your certain someone and no homo at the end it would have been obvious. Plus my fiancee would get mad. Or jelous. More jelous than mad. Shes violent when jelous. Yea…
We are completely open about how we spend the money. how its allocated and everything, as I dont have those logistics at the moment, you can always ask when we are collecting the money b4 the tourney starts we can tell you the prizes (cash tshirrts yada yada)
But at the moment this tourney is just cash and tshirts, And yes as last time for being there that long of course we gonna order pizza. Unfortunately we cant bring drinks as netwerx has to make money for us to stay there.
I tell you what as I find out i will let you all know here so you can spread the word. K?
And no worries.
i was looking for more of a percentage breakdown of how the tourny pays out… ex 40/25/15 20 to the house… ? and $50 was not worth me going down to the last one because i was doing something which got me more than a $35 profit…
and yes as ducky said i dont like playing casuals with just random people its not very entertaining… no offense
oh oh so whatcha ya trying to say, is that most peeps at HB’s suck! :looney:
then, just money match some of those "special people " I will have to be there for this :woot:
To anyone who has questions to the HVGL:

@Tob, it’s about friendly competition, if you’re not into that, I don’t see how you can have fun.
