That’s exactly the problem. Now that they’re out of the main tournament, i’ll have to sit down and come up with a whole new batch of excuses for when I lose. :rolleyes:
While I still don’t agree 100% with them not being in the tournament; I admit I didn’t consider that would free them up and give more players a chance to play them as opposed to the off chance of getting matched with them in a tournament, which is a good thing. I’m still hyped for this event regardless.
Some of the more recent items of interest:
In discussion:
*Starting Tournaments 10am on Friday (Thursday registration opens for all pre-reg @ 4pm, 8pm walk up registration opens)
This discussion is open among various channels of GAMME because the question is “how do we get our tournaments played while allowing the competitors to enjoy the events various programming”
The Event opens 4pm for opening ceremonies, so essentially only the tournaments would be running at this time.
*Beat the Champs - US & Japan Editions
pretty much what it says, we will have some of the players from each end to play, we have not determined what allows you to play them yet, but essentially I am thinking we will have a limit, but essentially beat the player and get a prize, I am thinking $100.
Some folks have suggested challengers should pay the players $10 to challenge them...Whats you guys opinion on this.
*Top Tier SSFIV Tournament
Pretty much what it sounds like, this would be a limited access tournament - the way we determine the players would come from the top 64 from the main SSFIV tournament. (not the top 1-64 players the top 64 people, from first down the list until we have 64 players - usually listing through the last 16 people tied at the top 49th spot.
These 64 would be allowed if they choose to compete in a separate tournament with its own registration against the Japanese players. I have not decided to put a pot on this yet as I am considering making this a $20 entry for the pot and will be signed up for at the event as well as we have not decided to do this yet.
This would address one of the fundamental issues we have which is bringing the Japanese players ourselves. If its a pure pot with no bonus then its the community on its own deciding and its pool of players would be the top that have played that weekend.
Also considered taking 1 seed to complete an 8 man seeding (7 coming from Japan) If we go forward with this concept, I will most likely seed the extra person from ECT this year. Yay John.
So we have a lot on the table of discussion with my teams to work out. We also have some new folks coming onto our teams that are getting into our discussions to work on these scenarios.
Trying to make everyone happy…very tough, but I definitely try.
Discuss…
Those sound like some good ideas and are great compromises.
Looking forward to this. This should set my record for farthest tourny I traveled to for my traveling mod services. Well, unless if I tavel to EVO the month after this. Think you can hook me up with a table/both?
Sucks that I won’t be going to MAGfest and see you in my own state.
Nice, 3s. I may be there.
You have to do MaGFest if you can, its a lot of fun. We are officiating over all their major tourneys this year.
If you want to do mod services at the show, pop me an email with details we can talk about where we can place you.
Still thinking of the idea we had @ NECX…
Steel Batallion fight stick tri-mod…

Just curious but if Im running matches am I able to ENter SSF4? Not a huge deal if I cant but I was just curious
You are allowed, priority however is tourney. But yes your allowed.
Of course man. I probably wont enter but I just was curious
I myself am Entering Tekken 6 :), but work comes first if I’m not on time I expect Ryan to DQ my ass. lol
I’mma try and come, if just to get in on Wind Jammers.
i will own you! Keits first!
LOL, laughable statement. I made you both look foolish in that game.
I didn’t get in on wind jammers, yo. I had to bounce right as you guys were starting it up.
You probably don’t even know who I am, Keits. Hahahaa.
I was fucking around in TVC when you guys were getting ready to set it up.
I know, but I have to front…I WILL OWN YOU~!
“Tatsunoko v Capcom: All Stars - Registration live!”
This is the first tourney of the 2010 year that has this game! I think it is a big deal, and I for one thank you for having the balls to put that game on the list of tourney games. There will be other tourneys in 2010 that have TvC: UAS but this was the first to announce that they would run the game as a featured tourney.
My hat is off to you sir!! I will be there and will make it my job to make this game as hype as possible!! Capcom get behind this guy and put some money up in his pot because he is taking a big step to put this game on like that and well before the game even drops in the U.S.A.
BTW it is Tatsunoko vs Capcom: Ultimate All Stars. No biggie, I still know what the game is and who is the ifrst tourney to have the balls to say they want to support it!!
GO G.A.M.M.E.
