[March 23rd, 2013] KDP Grand Prix Poverty Festival (Fayetteville, NC)

Thought we had that done but I guess not thanks for the heads up. I don’t want to have bumped Tekken tag 2 up to an A spec game for nothing.

We’re about 7 days away now!

Nuh uh. I’ve been playing a loooooot of Tekken; I was getting bored of SF4.

Registration 10 am - 2pm (Registration is going to be completely cut off 100% between 2:00pm-2:15pm so call ahead if your going to be late so we can atleast get you in the system. We are serious on this time. (number to be posted in a bit)

Casuals from 10:30 am till 2:00 pm (This is almost an entire 4 hrs of casuals so if you really want to play then come early, we will be here)

2PM: Casuals stop for ALL SYSTEMS (except for the one located at the 2/3 casuals station)

2:00-2:15: Tekken Tag Tournament 2 starts, BB starts, SSF4AE starts
3:00: Melty Blood Starts
3:30: KoF starts, GGX starts
5:00: P4A starts, UMVC3 starts

We want to get the tournament done fast that way everyone can do as many runbacks/money matches/casuals as they want when we’re done. We will be packing up about 10:30/11ish some of the equipment but people are free to stay as long as there are setups.

Updated the main post with this info from the FB Event page.

We’re serious about the time people.

Schedule is tentative to games actually being run if a game isn’t run due to lack of entrants than it will shift slightly.

http://www.teamkdp.tv/?p=26 – Talks about the S.E.E.D system for those curious

3 days left till the event, show up. Also some misinformation is being spread because I don’t even know why? Anyway to clarify to everyone the 1200 is SAME DAY PAYOUT. You come, you place, you get paid.

Please check out the rules to know what’s acceptable and what isn’t. Rules for individual games are also posted but most of you probably already know all those.

Also we’re serious on the time, don’t come at 1:50pm and expect to get in if theirs a line. Registration is being cut off AT 2:00 ON THE DOT ALMOST. Show up early to guarantee that you’re all good!

The (slightly late) 24 hours out update:

As we get ready for the inaugural event for the Grand Prix season, there’s a couple things I’d like to let everyone know.

  • The dollar tournament for the event is DOA5. It’ll be cross platform, so if you have a copy, bring it out to speed it up.

  • If you are running a little bit late, call us. My cell is 609-829-8015. If we’re not busy processing new users for SEED, we can sign you up over the phone. If we are, we’ll take your name down and will double check for you before we start the tournament. Note that this does not negate the need to arrive before your tournament starts. All published times are hard times, and will be followed.
    Important for those traveling to our events, this was posted in the FB event thread. Be sure to call ahead, PLEASE if you will run late at all. I’d hate to turn away people coming at 2pm just because they didn’t call.

Thread updated with the info for the newest tournament in about 3 weeks from now roughly. All info is on the main page or you can check the event page here

I’ll be putting them up today and tomorrow

Thanks!!! Appreciate the effort for the recording!

Also, thanks to those that let me use their sticks! I truly appreciate your generosity.

NC is pretty good about that usually. Thanks for making it out man. Marvel was too hype. It had inspired me to play it again a bunch with some people the day after the tournament lol. Burned out now though from fighters, gonna take a break for a week after running all that stuff exhausted.
