SCHEDULE:
Registration starts at 12pm, games should start around 1pm, goes on till the evening, until 9pm’ish, depending on numbers of participants. We have a decent amount of volunteer workers so we will be trying to keep things running smoothly as much as possible.

A few other things,
Sorry guys but theres a no outside food or drinks agreement with the venue, they sell drinks and snacks at the counter at reasonable costs. Its Richmond so there are also lots of restaurants around the area that’s within walking distance.

Bring your own sticks! Or if you don’t have an Xbox I’m sure there’ll be someone who’ll be willing to lend you their sticks for a match or something.

All top8 matches will be recorded and highlights will be uploaded and posted.

Will there be a team tourney?

Format says “Super Street Fighter 4 (xbox 360)” lol

I hope there’s a team tourney!

Also, could a mod sticky this?

Also, what’s the ruling on glitches like zero shadow SnapBack glitch? Banned I hope.

Thanks for the heads up on the SSF4 part lol
There is no teams for this since it’s already 3vs3, but it should still be hella fun. We will see how the turn out is and if there is enough demand we may bring teams tourney to the next MVC3 tourny.

As for ruling on glitches and other shizzle I still have to discuss with my co-organizers who actually play the game, because I don’t :smiley:
We’ll be sure to make it as fair as possible though!

no teams cause it’s 3v3? it’s only one round though…

I hope you guys reconsider if there’s a good turnout!

I too hope there’s a team tourney, even if it’s teams of 2. It also makes the venue fee more worth paying.

Also, this will be on the Sentinel nerf version right? (newest version)

told you justin that u guys should do teams too

If we have enough time to run teams for 100+ entrants in SSFIV, you guys have enough time to run teams for MvC3.

I think we should run 3v3 teams. Otherwise, the tourney would be wayyyy too short.

Any idea about the number of participants right now?

I would love to try my hand at MvC3 with you guys!

Yo Paul, if there’s teams, wanna team up?

3v3 Teams makes sense to me.

Alrite we’ve decided to fit a 2vs2 teams tourney in there. Single elimination. Teams fee will be $10/team which goes towards the pot. If the turnout is well n it doesnt take too long to run we will consider making it 3vs3 in the upcoming mvc3 tourneys.

New to SRK, from Surrey here, I will try to make it out for the tourney. I haven’t been to this arcade though, is it by Lansdowne?

Yup, it’s right by Lansdowne.

Oops i meant to say double elimation for the 2v2 teams. Double!!!

ah shit, i didnt see ur post till now, i coudlnt find this thread, or i woulda said yes, i already agreed to teamup with someone already. too bad its 2v2 or we still coulda had a team. nextime broham!

Dang, I would go to this but I use a PS3 controller.

There’s nothing preventing you from playing on a pad!

It’s all a matter of preference, =]

SO no excuses, GO! **GO! GO!
**

Oh btw we’re looking for volunteers who are willing to let us use their setups (xbox/monitor/game) for the tourney, please email me at vanstreetbattle@gmail.com or PM me if you would like to lend us any of the listed items (REEEALLY appreciated!!)

Gah Xbox format, I have a PS3. Is anyone coming with an arcade stick? I’d really like to come but I’m too used to the stick now.
