We just spent the day setting up the room for DEVASTATION and, as biased as I may be, the place looks pretty awesome. Tomorrow we have the AV company in to finish up the stage production and we are pretty much ready to go.

Look forward to seeing to seeing the VIPs tomorrow night at the party and everyone on Friday.

P.S. The hotel has rooms available - I added another block this morning :tup:

question about controllers

@ jedirobb Are wireless controllers allowed? I didnt see that anybody asked this question.

Thanks

The rules say, “No wireless for you!”

Stop trying to bring down the US literacy rate.
Click me for information and look under “Standard Game Rules”.

My mistake. I didn’t took a look at the Official DEVASTATION website. Thanks.

Anyone here at the Hyatt with a setup playing? I’m here bored in my room. LMK 832-533-5557

Will Devastation be recording all their games?

Wait, Nick Paldino is commentating on the stream? I thought everyone agreed that he needs to stay as far away from a mic as possible.

is this free to spectate? like can I show up the last day (sunday) and walk through the doors?

Great event so far. Feels more than just a tournament. It’s an experience haha!

Great job!

You can still walk in and check out the finals on Sunday. Bring yo ass.

Right now I am drunk and was almost 2 seconds away from playing fighting games in real life on some dude’s face, but this was really an event. I’m glad I came out for this. If you didn’t, you really missed out.

Grrrrrrr no casuals today? Anyone got super or even tekken in their room? I wanted to play today.

All the finals VOD’s will be at http://www.djWHEAT.blip.tv right after their over, and then we’ll get to yesterday’s SSF4 matches later today. Starting soon!

Just a quick post to say I hope everyone is enjoying the event and broadcast… We are still live: www.devastationevent.com.

VERY professionally done stream. I am extremely impressed. It’s a shame I missed all the interesting stuff and tuned in during Soul Caliber IV, but oh well, there’s still SSF4! Good job guys.

does he go by another alias i would know?

ALL VOD’s from all games of today’s finals are already up, and can be viewed at http://www.djWHEAT.blip.tv

Apologizes to those with commentator gripes. Seth, Dogface, Gootecks and others were not available to be here this weekend. Hope you guys enjoyed everything else!

I really really loved the stream, but felt it was a big waste of my nights to see so many breaks. It would be cool if next time you tell how long will the stream be playing GEE GEE GEE before going off. Nick Paldino was a baaad baad choice too, I can live with the BB-guy that kept jabbing at SF4 but Nick was constantly saying things that were straight up misinformed. He’s a dangerous commentator because his stuff didn’t sound that off in the ears of an outsider trying to get in. I felt bad to see that someone like me could spot so many mistakes in his commentary for EVERY match.

Overall though the event was nice, awesome job.

Awesomeness: Just wanted to thank JediRobb and crew for setting up an event that was nothing short of excellent. I ran the puzzle gaming set-ups and had a blast meeting new people and learning a thing or two from them! Even got to meet/chat with some big namers like Juicebox, Royal Flush, Mike Ross, Marn, and more. Sunday was a riot. Those finals matches had me pretty excited, even on games I’m not into, like Soul Calibur 4.

Recommendations: I have to agree w/ folks on the SF4 commentating. After hearing extremely informed/informing commentating like JediRobb on Low Tier Marvel 2, the SF4 stuff was weak at best.

Already excited for next year! :tup:

Just wanted to say that I had a great time at Devastation! You guys really raised the bar for quality setups, streaming, and presentation. And wow…the stadium seating for finals was bad-ass! Good job to everyone involved in putting this on! :clapdos:
