Schedule

11:00 AM: Registration
12:00 PM: GGXXAC, SSFIVAE, MK9, P4A tournaments begin
The remaining 4 singles tournaments will start a few hours later depending on how quickly the brackets for the first 4 games advance so that we can start switching out consoles.

Finals for all games will be streamed. Brackets for all games will run until the finals, in which case they will be paused until ready to be streamed.

GGXXAC teams and special exhibition will start after GGXXAC singles finals.

KOF special exhibition will start after KOF singles finals are finished.

Consoles for each game
GGXXAC – PS3
SSFIVAE – 360
UMvC3 – 360
P4A – 360
KOF – PS3
MK9 – PS3
TT2 – PS3
SG – PS3

If people would be interested I wouldn’t mind running a Sony Smash tournament.

I’d use WNF’s ruleset since they’re running the game this month at their events.

You can run a side tourney after the main ones settle down a bit.

If you are planning to bring a setup (TV+console/games) please post in this thread!

You will not have to pay the venue fee for letting us use your equipment for the day. I would like to have some kind of idea of expected inventory so that we can plan how to set everything up in advance. This means things starting on time and being run more efficiently. It also means that if we get TOO many setups, I wont have to turn people down and tell them to put it back in their cars due to lack of space. So please post up!

I will be able to bring a monitor + ps3 with sg, kof, and sf4 (although I imagine you’ll want 360’s for that)

We can use that setup for SG and KOF so no problem

I will be there with 2 friends. We will all be entering AE and Marvel. Any chance of AE or Marvel teams being done?

Yea if there’s time after singles

I want to enter in GGXXAC – PS3 and SSFIVAE – 360, will there be staggered play for players entered in both? or will i have to only enter in one rather then the other =<?

Also is the regular arcade open during this event?

Thanks

Everyone can enter as many games as you want. In fact, entering multiple games is encouraged. If you are called to play in a different game when you are busy playing a tournament match, the people in charge of brackets will wait for you to finish your match and call a different one, so don’t worry!

Yes, Nickel City arcade floor area will be open to the public with most games operating on only nickels and many on free play all day!

this sounds interesting. Would it be alright to bring a setup for SFxT if people are interested??

Sure, bring it. Would be even better if we could use your setup for a tournament game and then you can put on some SFxT later after the most of the tournaments finish. You will get waived venue fee.

Man, we already have like 150 people signed up to attend this event on Facebook. Shit is gonna be hyyyyyppppeeee! Only a few more weeks to go.

Should I try to make this a Road to EVO event? Application is coming soon.

That’ll be nice.

Right across the street from Nickel City, about 50 bucks for a room, not bad. I hear flights are also really cheap if people are thinking about flying from far away

I can bring a PS3 with SG, GG and KoF.

i can bring a ps3 for a DOA 5 side tournament. I also got SG too. I’ll be entering MK9 and maybe P4A.
