Battle at the Border 3, POT BONUSES, CRAZY SIDE GAME! - McAllen, TX 11/07/09

count me in sir. if we have more than 10 people can we run a side tourney for 3s as well as kof if enough interest apply? and if so. nothing would be towards the venue right just to the players… if DJ permits it

place looks really small and compact dudes. mainstage has 6 screens back to back with lil room for those who use chairs to sit on and chairs to play on. so we have to lay on the floor with our sticks? and will finals be on a bigger screen than those lil guys?

I liked last years comic book shop. Did that place close or something?

I’ll fill in all this information tomorrow after I visit the place.

No they stopped hosting video game tournaments. Another tournament runner who was pretty much scamming people (Uploaded Tournaments) fucked it up for everybody else. A greedy fuck was running it and the guy tried to negotiate some bs with the owner and he said fuck this I’m done with it. The tournaments are now defunct so no worries but if they were around they would definately be on the promoters to avoid place.

I’m pretty sure i’m coming to this. If I do then everyone that enters marvel has to money match me :-). Put that on the first post next to marvel Demon Jim, plzkthx ;-)* .

Also, these are some other questions I need answered:

Is there going to be anyone at this tourney that knows how to solder an xbox360 sf4 fightpad to a stick?

Anyone have a place for me to stay for free, in a gay or not gay way whichever gives me a better chance. I’d be coming on friday night.

Luiz is going to currently house all 10 San Antonio peeps. Try Hamm, if anybody from our side is willing to house POST UP!! Hamm and Max_85 know how to do that stuff you might wanna talk to them. I don’t know of anybody else who does but I know there is at least 1 more person.

Also if by some stroke of a miracle we get stream up and running would anybody who knows about the games be willing to MC it? Just throwing it out there.

awesome i like you alot ^____^

Joey call me, I need a ride:sweat:

O Crap:karate: Jan Coming HMMM Me VS JAN … The EPIC BATTLE:rock:

Jan, when is it too late to call? I get your calls when I leave school but it’s always really late. i’ve been at school pretty much since last week trying to get stuff done so I can go this weekend.

Might have to drop out of this, spent too much money last weekend, and I may not have a ride to the ride, as well as gas going up because of other people not able to go.

Hey I texted you, does that count :rofl:

brandon, when are you guys going to mcallen?

Battle at the border announcement please read!!!

Quick review of NE1LANCNTR:

I finally got in after to the place after the renovation and I must say way the inside is very nice. Pretty sick if you ask me.

**SETUPS:**The setups of the 360s will be connected to a monitor by a Microsoft VGA HD AV Cable. Minus a few 360s that would not cooperate (already been fixed) the picture was very crisp and clean. I liked what I was seeing lag was very minimal and the few that did was mistakes on our part, wrong setting we will be testing them tonight so that does not happen tomorrow

**AUDIO:**There is a small catch but I don’t see it as a bother because as a very picky gamer who complains a lot I actually did not mind the new sound change. On each xbox 360 each setup will have 2 headphones set up connected to the xbox 360. Headphones you say? Yes headphones. These are top of the line Tritton headphones made specifically for games with digital audio fiber optic surround sound and multiple speakers in the headphones that go around the ear making the sound sound so fucking badass. They headphones are light wait and do not get in the way of play. Each headphones comes with its own private volume control. I actually am very impressed with the sound quality and must admit that I have never heard SF sound like that. I for one welcome this new change. First time seeing SF with headphones that I have seen and very awesome indeed. It’s like your own private zone. Great sound blockers as well. IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO WHERE HEADPHONES----simply just crank the volume to full blast and you can still here the sound pretty damn clear. “FROM MY PERSONALL OPINION, I WAS SKEPTIC BUT THESE HEADPHONES REALLY DO NOT RENDER PLAY AND ARE VERY COMFORTABLE TO WHERE!!!”

http://www.trittontechnologies.com/ check them out they are the white ones

**SIZE OF PLACE:**The place will be cramped but very doable, to those of us who remember the good ol days of old arcade love like Stargate this will not be a problem for us hell I love it this way. The chairs you will be sitting in are very comfortable office chairs, u know the tall black ones. I actually started falling asleep in them yesterday for how comfortable they are. So to those who play using double chairs like I do, I apoligize ahead of time but there will be enough room to sit on the floor if you’d like.

Once registered and if you are not playing I encourage people to hang outside to free up a little bit of room. There is a huge speaker setup through out the whole place so calling matches will be very easy for us, we will also call them outside to those who are chillin outside.

DONT FORGET YOUR STICKS/CONTROLLERS:
XBOX360
DREAMCAST/PLAYSTATION2 (MUST OF US JUST USE THE CONVERTER)
SNES CONTROLLERS AND N64 CONTROLLERS ARE SUPPLIED.

TO THOSE TRAVELING DOWN HERE TONIGHT AND TOMORROW, BE CAREFUL AND HAVE A SAFE TRIP. SEE YOU TOMORROW!!!

DIRECTIONS:
No matter from which direction your coming from you have you will still be coming in from Highway 83 don’t matter what city you will be traveling from. Coming from both north and south you have to take the exit to 23rd in Mcallen.

North: More then likely you just passed through Rio Grande City and Mission, exit 23rd street in mcallen and drive down a little while and turn left under the overpass. Drive a good while down i’m serious you will be driving a good chunk. Drive all the way till you hit and pass NOLANA. PRIMROSE IS THE NEXT STREET COMING UP AND TURN TO YOUR RIGHT AND TAKE AN IMMEDIATE LEFT IN THE PLAZA YOU SEE, SIMPLY DRIVE DOWN AND YOU WILL SEE THE SIGN.

South: Coming from Harlingen/Brownsville side: Like north exit 23rd and drive down a bit past a few intersection, the stoplight has the 23rd sign handing from it. TURN RIGHT Drive a good while down i’m serious you will be driving a good chunk. Drive all the way till you hit and pass NOLANA. PRIMROSE IS THE NEXT STREET COMING UP AND TURN TO YOUR RIGHT AND TAKE AN IMMEDIATE LEFT IN THE PLAZA YOU SEE, SIMPLY DRIVE DOWN AND YOU WILL SEE THE SIGN.

DAMN! those are some badass headphones :amazed:

Our place has room for 3-4 guys (maybe more if you bring a sleeping bag). We have 2 mattresses we can put in the living room, a long 3 seater couch and a smaller loveseat (if your short and can fit) So if some guys need housing hit me up. (but not in that way.) :nono:

956-970-2512 text or call. Preferably text.

Joey, just call me today whenever you get the chance. If I can ride with you dudes I want to know where I have to meet you up, gas money, etc.

All in now. Also where is a place we could stay late at night? It’s just for when we will be arriving there in the wee hours of the morning and we should be heading back to Houston after the tournament is over.

Hit Nolana which is the street over and you’ll come across a good amount of hotels. All else fails drive back the to the highway on 23rd and take a left there are a few hotels/motels right there.

Also there is a good chance this will be my last post till after the tournament. So anything after this might not be seen by me.
