ATTENTION - THIS IS GONNA BE JANUARY 10TH INSTEAD

MORE NEW INFO
Battle Fantasia is now a free side tourney. I’m also adding Tekken and Soul Calibur as main games. There might be a free tourney for a fighter called Immaterial and Missing Power for PC, if enough people wanna play. We’ll see.

Digital Ops, a LAN center in Ann Arbor, is gonna have monthly fighting game tournaments.

DATE
Saturday, January 10th, 2009

PLACE
Digital Ops
525 E Liberty St.
Ann Arbor, MI 48104
734.994.1595
www.digitalops.com

You can find parking in a structure on Maynard street, less than a block away from the store. If you’re standing in front of ops you can see the parking structure straight ahead.

If that’s full up, the Downtown Library’s parking lot is also very close by. It has entrances on Division and on 5th. Just drive west from Ops and turn left on 5th, and you’ll see it on your left.

Neither option is free unfortunately, but it’s hard to find free parking in Downtown Ann Arbor. Sorry guys.

GAMES
This month I’m planning to have:
Tatsunoko vs. Capcom (Wii, but I’ll have adapters ready so you can use a PS2 controller if you like.)
Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix (360)
Street Fighter 3: 3rd Strike (PS2)
Capcom vs. SNK 2 (PS2)
Guilty Gear XX Accent Core (PS2)
Tekken 5: DR (PS3)
Soul Calibur 4 (360)

And now, backed by popular demand…
Marvel vs. Capcom 2 (DC)

FREE SIDE TOURNEYS
Battle Fantasia (360)
and possibly Immaterial and Missing Power (PC)

Schedule
12:00 - The store opens, and registration begins.
1:00 - Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, HD Remix, SC4, 3rd Strike, and IaMP start.
5:00 - Capcom vs. SNK2, Guilty Gear, Tekken 5, and Battle Fantasia start.

RULES AND MONEY
There’s a $5 venue fee that goes to the store. You only pay this once no matter how many tournaments you’re playing in.
It’s $10 to enter each tournament. All this money will be given to the winners, split 70/20/10.

All games are played 2/3. Finals are 3/5.
No pausing unless you have a really good reason.
Bring your own controller. No turbo or button macros, or any of that stuff.
The brackets are double elimination, and will be seeded by location (so you don’t have to play your friends right away.)

OTHER STUFF
If you can bring a set up let me know. You’ll get your venue fee waived. PM me before you bring it though, so we don’t end up with more systems than we need.

If you wanna advertise, I’ve got some fliers you can put up at your local game store, or wherever you think it’ll catch some eyes. Tell your friends.

Ops sells drinks, and there’s a lot of food places within short walking distance.

This tournament is the same day as Frosty Faustings. http://forums.shoryuken.com/showthread.php?t=166603
In order for both tournaments to be successful I think it would be best if you tried to change the date for this. The date for my tournament absolutely cant be changed since I will only be in town for a short time from Japan. Please consider changing the date if possible.

well from dayton I only know 2 of us so far that want to attend… (more will probably come out)

TechThatShit
Dayton , OH
3S

Arkayne
Dayton,OH
3S, HDR

( we can bring a TV and a PS3, PS2 systems or whatever)

FYI I think you should add MvC2/T5/SC4 or one of them into that game roster… Just a tip.

Potentially changing the date would be a good idea but its up to you.

Elven - My bad, I should have looked through the other tourneys. I’ll bump mine to the 10th.

Arkayne - The problem with adding more games is that Ops isn’t the biggest place. If there’s enough interest, and people can bring set ups (or at least the games) than we can have MvC, T5 and SC4 at 6:00 or 7:00, after the other tourneys are finishing up.
What game could you bring with your systems?

I’ll enter, 3s, and tatsunoko.

I’ll see about getting the day off of work and coming in. If I do I’ll be looking to enter HDR and Tatsunoko. I could possibly bring copies of the games and consoles, too.

K, hope to see ya there.

You can bring 1 xbox and 1 wii Uber? That would be helpful.

You should have Marvel vs. Capcom 2, Tekken 5: DR and Soul Calibur IV as well. Then I might come but I don’t know how far is Ann Arbor from Windsor. Let me know. Thanks. Uber_Johnson out!!

:confused:

I have to dodge cuz in running a counter-strike source tournament at cygamz

i cant wait to try ur copy of TvC tho :slight_smile:

I wanna enter TvC but I havent even played it yet…

but with us we can bring copies of 3s , marvel SC4 , HDR , T5DR or whatever… jsut lemme know what you need.

You can come in before the tourney starts and get some friendlies in :stuck_out_tongue: Maybe I’ll switch that to later in the day so people can get some games in first, cause not everybody is gonna be able to play it before the tourney. Should I add you to prereg?

How many PS3s can you bring?

sign me up for HDR, Accent Core, and 3S

I’m getting a 360 soon and will be picking up HDR, and Battle Fantasia too, so maybe I’ll join BF if I like it enough

and after some casuals I might join in TvC. it plays like MvC1 right?

BF is very similar to 3rd Strike, so you’ll probably like it. It’s fun.

Yeah, they say it’s like MvC1.

Yeah, I got my 360 with HDR on it, and my Wii is set up to play imports(and I have TvC preordered) so bringing those things shouldn’t be an issue.

Gotta support the new games!

Sweet :smiley:
Thanks man.

Sign me up for 3s plz!

I think it’s a good idea to put t5 and sc4, but I don’t want to do MvC. At KOH’s tourney in Howell almost no one showed for MvC, and TvC is the newer version anyways.

Can someone bring setups for Tekken and Soul Cal?

Put me down for HDR and TvC (not afraid to try and learn a game a few hours before the tourney :P)

That’s the spirit :smiley:

If anyone wants to try TvC before the tourney check out the Michigan thread in the regional section of the forums. I’m gonna try to set up a regular game day in Ann Arbor where we could play.

Also, I’m adding Tekken and Soul Calibur, making Battle Fantasia a free side tourney.

Sign me up for Soul Calibur 4. I never even played that game before, but am good with Taki in all games. As long as she still has her BAK, BAA, BBB, and wakeup BB.
