Hey guys, there’s going to be a tournament on the SUNY Binghamton campus on Saturday, April 28th at 6:00 PM. Free entry, with a 1st place prize for UMvC3 and SSFIV:AE. There’s also going to be a Skullgirls side tournament, as well as stations for casuals during the event. Unfortunately, we can’t compete for cash on campus, so we’re stuck with a more casual tournament, but we’ve got some good competition around here, so definitely try to be there. PM me for location details and any other questions.
for the record, if you need to get around those silly college (no “gambling”) rules you can either buy Best Buy gift cards or Visa gift cards to give out to the winners, the latter of which are just as good as cash. And usually you are allowed to give those away at tournaments.
Yeah, I’m aware of that, and the prizes are in fact going to be gift cards. But since a gift card is a set, predetermined amount, it doesn’t work at all like a cash pay-out. We felt it’d be easier and more relaxed to just have it be more casual. Sorry to those who really want to compete for cash; that’s just not feasible for a small group to put together. That’s not to say you can’t get some money matches in on the DL, though…

Xbox or PS3?
- We might have some PS3 set-ups but we mostly play on Xbox.

SkullGirls has been added
So I’m guessing the school year is over for BU and BCC, but would anyone who lives in Binghamton be up for some casuals sometime?
Maybe at least once a week if we get enough people?
If anyone was interested, Hostile Takeover is hosting a tourney in New Windsor. Right now there are around 42 people that are supposed to come, and we’re hoping to try and get more people to come if possible. The games that will have tournaments are SFIV AE 2012, SF3: Third Strike, and UMVC3. There will also be casuals for KOF XIII, SCV, MK9, and SG. The link below has more info for those interested. Please spread the word!

Damus,
Are you going to be in Syracuse next summer? I’m moving to Cortland next year, which is significantly closer to Syr, and I’m more likely to come.
Anyone know when classes start at BU?
Also is anyone going to be playing Persona?
Students return the weekend after Summer Jam, which is next weekend.
There going to be any casuals on Fridays this semester?
