Dem shirt monsters.

Do you have any info on the stats for 2011 and maybe 2010? I’d like to see the growth in numbers and compare with the entrants from last year.

The numbers for SSFIV and BB on 2011 are lost? The years I’m most interested in are 09, 10 and 11.

All I found was a 1700 entrance number for SFIV on 2009, on one of the threads here. I also found a old post for 07 ou 08 where Mr Wizard says you can ask him privately about the numbers.

I’m really interested in the numbers for research on the growth of the US scene and the niche games.

True, I think EVO is a great event to measure how well players and groups perform, but also for my statistics (EVO2K12 Country representation statistics) I am missing the finals bracket, which never got updated. That’s a shame, because in the end also EVO benefits from providing good information online.

Updated a bit.
