Edmonton Thread - 2012

I should never have quit Street Fighter.

I could have leveled up so much if I would have stuck with it.

Only 4 months to practice for Canada Cup :frowning:

brad play me a bunch on xbl then :smiley:

so wats up with the seeding points shiro?

Need ABD3 thread soon.

Hi guys, I’m back x_x
There were new faces? How many people entered in total anyway? Was it a small turnout?

sup etown. just droppin by to say wwwwaaaassssuuuppppp.
man would be cool if you guys were able to come to Calgary and party at Dickens on Sunday for the EVO finals. i wish i could offer you guys housing but im housing a few friends from out of town this weekend.

dat stampede centennial?

I am gonna be in calgary during that time. I dunno if I will be able to go, but I will check it out if I got time.

yupyup. calgary is quite a gong show right now.

yeah swing by Dickens. we’ll have at least a few setups.

Top 4 In both Marvel and SFIV will be getting the top seeding points for Alberta Beat Down. I should not that aside from players that are not from Edmonton, no one else will be special seeded, no friend cards or ā€œoh this person is really good but stopped coming to tournaments soā€¦ā€ NO. If you did not place at SS then I’m sorry, the seeding needs to be done in regards to the last event.

UMVC: Seeding players Bee, Love, Jimmy, Myself
SF4: Khoa, Fakesteve …Dean… Sang

It will be in that order. I will see if I can not have something like say, Mai vs B first match or Khoa vs Raiden etc, but keep in mind only the top 4 from SS will be seeded.

With that said, it is very important that anyone who wants to help out with the event, let me know as soon as possibly and what exactly they want to do, how long they are able to help out ETC, PM me on here or message me on facebook.

Finally I have to be a dick for ABD3, the animethon staff are some serious bitches when it comes to doing things on time and what not. So I have to start w/e game weather or not some one has made it on time or not. If you can get someone to pay for you that is at the event that is cool, if not then there isn’t anything I can do about it.

Also as I mention at SS I know there isn’t anything planned for day 1 of the event, and basically it will be mostly sign ups and aisde games. I’m looking to try out persona 4, Arcana Heart Guilty Gear, 3rd Strike, HDR, Soul Calibur, w.e people want to request, because we will have the time for it, we have form 12 until 11 at night and I expect that we will have lots of the ā€œcasualā€ anime nerds poking around.

Anyhow thats all from me.

welp, just had my first day at BioWare. im officially part of an AAA design studio :smiley:

Last week the cost for the consoles was $59.25 17 people showed up so the overages was $25.75 adding to the total overages of $85 so far.

Can someone please commit to bringing a copy of AE? Based on the last 3 weeks it’s going to be needed. Post up here or txt/pm me if you can bring it. It won’t be needed the entire night but it really helps keeps the brackets flowing.
