HDR 3on3 Team Tournament

I was asking bc you sound like on of those new sf4 guys that starts a thread once a day complaining about so many ken and ryus in the game.

No matter what your skill level is, its still gay to talk trash to somebody (someone on SRK no less) for picking ken or ryu. I guess i should have asked around before insulting such a Great.

On topic tho, mustain are you going to change the time to what you mentioned? :pray:

Hey Fame. I’ll put together some stats for you once we have all 8 teams finalized. I think you might be surprised.

As for Pacloc, I did ask if people prefer it if I pushed the tournament back an hour or two. Nobody seems to really care and it looks like it would be convenient for TOS as well, so I’m proposing that we start the tournament at 11PM EST instead of 9PM EST. All in favour?

I’m still trying to gather up some partners for this event, sent some messages, waiting for replies…

hey mustain, Im joining Team “Phil McCrotch”

I use Blanka

also - can we record our matches?

Done. The new team list is updated. And about recording your matches. Why the hell not? It would be awesome if we could have all matches recorded.

8:00pm PST works for me

Sup Mustain!! I want in!!

This might give me a reason to get back to HDR.

Sign me up as a free agent…

I think I main Ryu…

Hey Spoon. I updated the first page so you’re in as a free agent.

I really suggest that you, and all other free agents, send PSN messages to people you wish to recruit and form your team ASAP. We only have 2 team spots left and more than 6 free agents so better hurry.

Cool, we have a bunch of people from San Jose. I should’ve named our team Keystoners or Digital Playgrounders.

8pm PST works for me as well.

I have a team if we can still get in:

Team name: “Longshots”

ktm0066 (Sim), Binstone (DJ), and rice247 (Fei)

**Announcement: There are many free agents who have shown interest in joining a team since this tournament was first announced but have not formed a team just yet. ktm0066 has a team ready and wants to register. That wouldn’t be fair to those early-bird free agents, BUT we cannot wait for them to form a team forever. SO, this is what we’re gonna do. All the free agents who already posted their PSN before ktm’s team:
manwithnoarms (I’m pretty sure he mains Deejay)
MegamannyX (main: Ken)
superfx (main: ?)
GNX84 (main: Ken)
boingyman (main: ?)
avalonstar (main: ?)
Lone82Wolf (main: chun or cammy)
skeelo58 (main: Boxer)
SpoonnsxR (Ryu)

You have 24 hrs to create your team, preferrably with each other!! You’re all skilled players so there shouldn’t be any issues of “weakest link” and whatnot. If by 5:30PM EST (2:30PM PST) tomorrow (June 3rd) you still don’t have a team, I will have to give the 2 remaining team spots to the next two people in line who already have a team (ktm’s “longshots” team being one of them). **

I don’t know, I think it’s totally fair. I know ktm has been working on assembling a team for a while now, and why should he have to wait for the FA’s to get their ass in gear. He could have just posted here a while back before he got his team ready and would that have made a difference? I say whoever posts a full team first should have priority.

You’re right Tecmo, that’s what I thought at first. But I’m trying to propose a solution that doesn’t make people feel sidelined. Someone posted a team with only 2 members and I accepted. To be fair to FAs (that’s not Focus Attack to all of you traitors) they showed interest in the tournament first. Maybe I should make it 24hrs instead.

Well, I think before the next tournament players should have a team already assembled before submitting. I mean, I thought about posting my name on here a while back but I didn’t because I thought it would be easier for you (the organizer) to post full teams instead of trying to piece people together. Well, it is what it is…

And you’re right about that. That’s my mistake. Next tournament, I will make it a rule that only people with a full team can register. As for the time to put together a team, I’m making it 24hrs instead of 48. That should be plenty of time.

^^
or at least require the team to have 2 of the 3 players before submitting because sometimes it can take a while to get the third teammate (which was my case).

Whew… I felt guilty about that lol… I was on a cruise ship from Friday through Monday, so I didn’t get a 3rd player til last night.

I plan to have fun with it. A lot of SRKer’s are good in their own way. Just pick any of them, and you’re good to go. This is why I recommended a mix up for characters. I know a few guys who objected but having a mandated variety makes things more interesting. Maybe next time, we’ll allow to have a team of same characters.

Whether or not I get a chance to participate, I hope everyone has one hell of a time. Big thanks to mustain for taking the initiative. Looking forward just to seeing the matches that get recorded.

Hmmm I’d be down for playing but I work Friday’s until 10pm…so I might be peaced out in that respect. Is this tourney gonna go down in all one sitting?

PEACE

Yep. All in one night. I’m assuming that no encounter (3vs3) will last more than 10 minutes. I’m also assuming that all 4 first encounters (8 teams) will take place almost simultaneously. That means that within the first 20 minutes of the “kick-off”, we should have our 4 semi-finalist teams already. I see no reason why we can’t be done in one hour if everything goes well.
