I’ll probably be heading up to PHX this saturday for the SCV ranbat. If anyone from tucson wants to go, and is willing to split gas, PM me your number and we’ll work it out.

you should also post this up on the tuscon FB page if u havent already

Gems allowed includes auto gems?

I would totally go to that tournament just because you guys are giving love to us (rare) Fightpad players.
But… Do you have to be 21 to get into the place? >____>

Nope, only have to be 18 to be on the side that we are on. There is another side that is 21 and over and serves alcohol, which will be open for those who wish to drink, but they are separate.

Default gems only :slight_smile:

The latest patch allows for quick selection in the character select screen using a dial system, in the same menu as the default gems. If we know our gem loadout, does that fall under “default gems?” Situations like this (where gems are not banned) are what the dial system in the latest patch is intended for.

I’m asking not to be antagonistic or to try to bend the rules, but to see if we can get the gem standard to be consistent here. “Default gems” isn’t specific enough for rulesets for people to not try to bend. I also think that allowing only the two default loadouts for each character undermines the positives of allowing the gem system in the first place.

For future reference, the official term for the autoblock, autotech, and easy input gems are “Assist Gems,” while the term for the stat increase gems are “Boost Gems.” So if the dial system is in fact allowed, a solid rule would be “Assist gems are banned,” which would allow the normal competitive gems but ban the ones that the competitive community frowns on, the auto-tech, block, and input gems.

Edit: Also, the dial system makes it easy to remove all gems from a loadout on a fresh save file, should you decide to go that route and ban all gems when running tournaments.

still lookn for a ride tomarrow guys, I can meet up in the tempe area as I usually make my way around there

Im up in north Phoenix/Scottsdale area otherwise I would hook you up. Still looking for a partner for tomorrow too.

What tournaments do you plan on entering? I imagine that some people are going and leaving earlier or later depending on the game.

Edit: Never mind, checked your first post and you want to enter UMvC3 and SFxT. Lemme check some things and get back to you.

I honestly have no idea what is included under “default gems”

I just DLed the most recent patch for SFxT, does this mean I am all caught up on all gems that are available?

alrite, you can send me a pm or hit me up here Tsumuji


[FONT=Garamond][FONT=Garamond]I can pick u up, but im going there at like 12pm because i have to run KOF and SC. also u may need to find a ride back because i may not stay the whole time. [/FONT][/FONT]

thanks, im guessing you dont play marvel then? A ride back to the tempe area is rather important because marvel gets out pretty late, id be down even if that means ill have to ask around for a ride =P

ok. here my number (716) 361-5219. like i said i will be leaving early. so if you can txt me ur address. Also i dont do highway driving…yet. So if u could meet me at AZ mills that would be cool because i literally live like 2 mins away from AZ mills
