Despite the absence of marvel, this was a lot of fun. Major props to the organizers, Gerjay for running things, and all the players who came out. GGs everyone!
Yeah, I don’t know why I agreed to run both tournies, but thanks to nGuman, Jay Wang, Davero and Justin for helping out with the yelling/running of the tourney.
If it weren’t for the large number of DQ’s, we’d probably still be playing HD now. . . But I’d have to say it went pretty well, only 2 hours over time.
I hope half of these people get on SRK, and I’m sure I’ll have like 5 people adding me to XBL that haven’t joined SRK yet, so at least that’s some more people.
And the most important part of all of this… Every single one of these people came out because they want to play SF4 when its released. Just think of the competition!
Definitely a good time even if it did run a little long. It was cool to play you guys in person. I was definitely surprised I got into top 5 with so many SRKers showing up unannounced.
I also talked to the guys at A/C and they said their definitely running another tourny maybe in March with SF4 and HD. I will talk to them about 2nd/3rd payouts this time around. They definiltey weren’t expecting this kind of response as their first tourny had only 8 entrants and they had no idea SRK knew about this thing.
These guys definitely were just swamped and they will address any thing that we bring up for sure.
I’d like to thank everyone who came down yesterday to the Tournament.
I hope everyone had a fun time, lol.
We’re thinking of holding another Tournament (MAYBE) in April.
It’ll probably be just SFIV and STHD, maybe 3S/Smash depending on what rooms we get this time around, and request-wise.
Oh yeah, don’t forget, you can request whatever games to be played on the side, DC,N64,NES,SNES, whatever. We’ll see what we can do.
I’ll talk to you guys about Akuma/Honda, and anything else man. Just give us a shout out, and let us know what’s up.
When we do organize another tournament. I’ll post up an ad hopefully a month in advance to give everyone some time.
Anyways, I’m glad a lot of you guys came, but I’m sadden that I missed practically everything. lol.
Thanks guys! SRK’s the best!
PS - Props to Gerjay, Nagata, JayWang, Nguman, Davero and whoever else that was helping with our event!
You shit on the game that won you your copy of SFIV.
Hopefully they revise the payout structure next time. It’s odd placing 3rd in a 20 and 32 man bracket and yet somehow not even breaking even on the day.\
Jacob; what was the name of the beastly pizza place we hit up?
